Best Dragonforged armor in Dragon’s Dogma 2
To obtain the cream of the crop when it comes to armor, you’ll need to reach theUnmoored World, the secret endgame of Dragon’s Dogma 2. (For details on reaching the endgame and all other main quests, take a peek at ourwalkthrough to Dragon’s Dogma 2.) Visit the Dragonforged, a former Arisen who excels in enchanting gear with Wyrmslife Crystals (WLC). The Dragonforged makes his home inBay Wayside Shrine, which is north of Bakbattahl. You’ll only be able to buy these armor sets from him for WLC, which are obtained from killing drakes. If you don’t have any WLC, get ready to farm some lesser dragons.
The following table shows the names of vocations and their best pieces of armor for the head, body, and legs, along with the associated Wyrmslife Crystal cost. The Warfarer isn’t listed as a vocation on this table, because as a hybrid class, the Warfarer is capable of using all suits of armor in the game.
If you’d rather not farm dozens of drakes for Wrymslife Crystals, then there are lots of other excellent armor options that will still keep your Arisen well-protected.
The following table lists each vocation, the head, body, and legs armor with the best stats, and the associated gold (G) cost and location, when applicable. Some of these can only be purchased in theUnmoored Worldendgame or duringNew Game +, and we’ve noted when this is the case. As with our last table, the Warfarer isn’t present here, since their jack-of-all-trades skillset makes all armor in Dragon’s Dogma 2 available to them.
Now you should be geared up with exactly what you need to stride into battle alongside your pawn army.
