All Armor Checklist - Bloodborne

Bloodborne: All Armor Checklist

All Armor (Attire) Checklist Overview

The checklist is located below this introductory text.

This checklist contains every Armor Set and individual Attire piece obtainable in Bloodborne. The checklist tracks every collectible armor piece required to complete your collection.

Your character's attire consists of four pieces: Head, Chest, Arms, and Legs. Most armor or attire pieces are part of a stylized set, for example the White Church Set. However not all Armor sets have all four pieces and some pieces of armor are even solitary, without being part of a full attire.

This checklist lists all armor pick-ups. If an entire Armor set is found in one spot, it is listed as one item. If its part is located elsewhere, it is listed in another row as a new item.

How to collect all Armor in Bloodborne

Armor pieces are obtained in a variety of ways throughout Bloodborne. Many sets are found while exploring the world, while others become available for purchase from the Bath Messengers after obtaining Hunter Badges or defeating specific bosses in Chalice Dungeons.

Several unique outfits are rewarded through NPC questlines or become available after defeating specific bosses.

All armor pieces can be collected during a single playthrough, although a handful require optional exploration or completing NPC questlines.

Missable Armor

Several Armor pieces depend on NPC questlines and can be missed if those questlines are failed or abandoned. If you're aiming for a complete collection, thoroughly explore every area and use our Questline Checklists along the game.

About Armor in Bloodborne

Armor in Bloodborne, un-officially referred to as Attire, provides defense against physical damage as well as various status effects such as Frenzy, Poison, Slow Poison or Rapid Poison.

Unlike many RPGs, armor in Bloodborne has a relatively small impact on survivability, allowing players to prioritize appearance without putting themselves at a significant disadvantage. Most armors are about the same power level.

Each outfit consists of four individual pieces that can be mixed and matched freely. Wearing a complete set provides no additional bonuses, making it worthwhile to combine pieces with the highest resistances for a particular area or boss encounter. Or just prioritize drip.

FAQ

How many Armor pieces does this checklist track?

This checklist tracks 34 armor pick-ups. Full sets found in one place are one row. Pieces found elsewhere get their own rows.

Is armor missable in Bloodborne?

Yes. Several armor pieces depend on NPC questlines and can be missed if those questlines fail. Use the Questline Checklists if you want a complete attire collection.

Do full armor sets give set bonuses?

No. Wearing a complete set provides no extra bonuses. Mix and match freely for resistances, fashion, or both.

How important is armor defense in Bloodborne?

Armor has a relatively small impact on survivability compared with many RPGs. Most attire is roughly similar in power, so appearance and specific resistances matter more than chasing huge defense numbers.

How many pieces does an attire set use?

Attire uses four slots: Head, Chest, Arms, and Legs. Not every set has all four pieces, and some pieces are solitary without a full matching set.

Where do armor sets come from?

Many are found while exploring. Others are bought from Bath Messengers after Badges or Chalice bosses, and some unique outfits come from NPC questlines or boss rewards.
