Works best outside of combat when standing still. (6% dmg, ? regen, 19 def) Classless set used to regenerate health while exploring. Sets that can be acquired after defeating at least one pre-Hardmode boss. (1 cap, 5% summon, 13 def) Theoretically optimal set for a pure summoner since melee speed bonuses benefit whips. (0% dmg, 8% crit, +1 cap, 5% summon, 9 def) Head and leg slots used to maximize ranged damage, since there is no other summoner equipment. (6% dmg, 12% crit, +1 cap, 5% summon, 9 def) Head and leg slots used to maximize magic damage, since there is no other summoner equipment. (5% dmg, 16% crit, 13 def) Diamond Robe is weaker but can be obtained without relying on luck. (11% dmg, 22% crit, 12 def) Provides high magic bonuses, but requires some luck from the Traveling Merchant. (5% dmg, 13% crit, 12 def) Maximizes ranged damage output. Melee users should simply wear a Gi and maximize defense using the other slots. (5% dmg, 5% crit, 16 def) Optimal, but not very practical to obtain. (3 def) Earlygame set that repels enemies upon making contact. (10% dmg, 7 def) Earlygame set that can be used before defeating a boss during the Halloween season.
(3 def) Provides 30% increased mining speed. Can be farmed from a Hoplite Statue placed near a natural wired trap. (16 def) Provides high defense bonuses and knockback immunity. Nominally a summoner set, but works well for all classes early on. (+1 cap, 5% summon, 8 def) Practical set for exploring. Otherwise, use whatever provides the highest defense, the most practical choices being Jungle Pants or Gladiator Leggings. If playing on a drunk world, Moon Lord Legs become becomesst leg armor piece to use early on. More experienced players can save time by completely skipping armor in the early game, potentially even up to the Wall of Flesh battle. Whatever you wear at the start of the game will be replaced very quickly. It's perfectly fine to wear Ebonwood armor, Shadewood armor, or other basic, easy-to-craft armors until you can get your hands on a real armor set like Iron armor Lead armor and platinum armor or Tungsten armor. You may obtain up to 20 defense with metal armors Platinum armor, but the resources required are better spent elsewhere. The following listings are in rough order of decreasing viability.Īt this point, armor serves little purpose other than to boost your defense.
Those who are unwilling to invest fully in defense are advised to focus more on damage or critical hit bonuses. While it is unlikely to make you invincible, boosting defense as high as possible is a legitimate strategy even on higher difficulties. Your actual mobility mainly comes from Wings, which do not benefit from these bonuses.ĭefense is a polarizing stat whose effectiveness largely depends on what enemies you plan to tank hits from, and becomes disproportionately more potent when your defense is already very high. Also, movement speed bonuses granted by armor pale in comparison to the +85% movement speed granted by Exquisitely Stuffed, Slice of Cake, and Swiftness Potion. Direct movement speed bonuses are inferior to Hermes Boots, double-jumps, and dashes when it comes to dodging attacks.Neither of those are as impactfull as direct bonuses to melee damage and critical chance, although melee speed investment is still viable when using powerful close-ranged weapons such as Fetid Baghnakhs and Terra Blade. Melee speed generally only affects projectile velocity and the swing speed of close-ranged weapons.Especially later in the game, bonuses to melee speed and movement speed are generally not considered as impactful as direct offensive bonuses, making them a lower priority.This guide will help you decide on which armor sets to use at various points in game progression. Choosing the ideal armor sets to use at each stage of the game is sometimes straightforward, but not always. While weapons are the main determinant of combat effectiveness, armor also plays an important role by degrading damage taken and passively boosting damage output based on set bonuses, item categories, etc. Progression in Terraria is marked by the player gaining access to new weapons, accessories, and armors.
