Get yourself the most stylish and buffed armor set!
Starfield is an RPG of vastness, variety, and numerous opportunities. This massive open-world space exploration game allows you to buff yourself in countless ways. While the Settled systems give you options in every possible way to survive, they also try to kill you in every conceivable manner.
Aside from hostiles, atmospheric hazards like heat, corrosion, radiation, and seemingly anything else can sweep your health bar away in moments. And to tackle all of this, you need a robust armor set that can protect you to some extent, even if it’s negligible. Besides providing defense buffs, they also give you stylish looks based on your preferences.
Starfield provides an array of armor sets from the very start till the end of the game. With so many options available from four different rarities, it may seem difficult for the players to decide which set to choose. Also, with the seeming infiniteness of the galaxies, finding the best armor sets is very challenging. So, this guide will help you to get your hands on the Top 5 Armor Sets in Starfield.
