Armors provide some of the best and highest stat boosts in God of War PS4 (GoW 4). Equipping the right sets will go a long way in allowing you to contend with some of the toughest enemies you can encounter. Read on to find out what the best armors there are to use with Kratos and Atreus!

Best Armor Sets for Kratos

Ivaldi's Deadly Mist Set

Generaly speaking, all three of Ivaldi's "Mist" Armor Sets are some of the best armor sets that the player can go for. Ivaldi's Deadly Mist Set is the best of all three due to mid-to-high stats that it brings along with its passive HP replenishment perk.

This set allows players of all kinds of builds to make use of the armor without having to worry about how it might affect their experience with certain types of playstyles in mind.

Valkyrie Armor Set

Although extremely difficult to get compared to the time consuming task involved with fetching any of Ivaldi's Armor sets, the Valkyrie Armor set is an absolutely worthwhile armor to try and attain. Fully upgraded, all pieces of this armor will reduce the cooldown times for your Runes, allowing you to just spam them if you like.

This alongside with its decent stats can allow players to go with a tanky, aggressive build that can take as much punishment as they can dish out against the many enemies they fight against in-game.

Traveler Armor Set

A tanky armor set for more defensive minded players, the Traveler Armor Set may not seem all that grade in an unupgraded state, but once players complete the set and manage to upgrade it past its initial stats, they can freely enjoy playing through a build that allows them to tank minor hits from enemies.

The armor set comes with the ability to fully reject any sort of damage when receiving 1 hit from an enemy – although it doesn't seem useful at first, the ability shines during life or death situations in a game where enemies can take away chunks of the player's health at a time, and all of this on top of the armor sets already decent stats.

Best Armor Sets for Atreus

Legendary Sharpshooter Garb

Perfect for players that rely heavily on arrows to stun-lock enemies in place. The armor reduces recharge time when depleted, and adds extra damage to the last arrow in the pack that is fired at an enemy.

Legendary Runic Vestment

In stark contrast to the Sharpshooter Garb, the Legendary Runic Vestment is another great offensive armor for Atreus. With it in hand, healthstone assists become much more frequent – the armor also bumps recovery from enemy attacks up, as well as provides additional damage to any arrow fired at enemies for 8 seconds after using a Runic Summon.
