The higher ranks of Armored Essence increase the power and efficacy but will remain locked until you reach the required level to unlock it.
There are no Grimoires with this Ability. It means you can use it without the need to equip a Grimoire.
Since you start as Level 1 in the game, you can activate the Armored Essence ability at the start of the game. However, you will still need to spend an Ability Point to unlock its base rank.
