Crimson Moon Armor Sets
All 33 documented sets, grouped by how you actually get them.
Crimson Moon has 34 documented armor sets, each covering four slots — helmet, chest, gauntlets and legs. The useful way to read them is by acquisition: 3 drop from a named boss, 8 are platform or community promotions, 2 come from an edition or rarity tier, and the remaining 21 have no specific source documented.

What this page does not tell you yet
Said plainly, because a database that hides its gaps is not one you can trust with the parts it does have.
Only 15 of the 33 sets below have in-game equipment. Defence values and set bonuses are now extracted from the retail build and are shown in the Loadout Builder — but the game ships armour pieces for fifteen of these sets, and the other eighteen exist as names and lore with nothing to wear. Which is which is stated per entry rather than averaged away.
Set bonuses are real and are their own table, and they are thinner than expected: of the 34 stat-bearing set variants, eleven have no bonus at all. A matched set is still worth building towards — but not universally, and this page no longer implies otherwise.
What is still unknown is rarity scaling. No table in the game carries a rarity column, so the figures are base values and a Legendary version of a piece reads higher by an amount nobody here can state.
Boss drops (3)
The sets worth planning a run around, because you know exactly which encounter to beat.
| Armor set | Physical | Source | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mahkten | 34 | Mahkteah, The Lord of Perdition | A cuirass forged specifically to withstand the punishing blows of the Lord of Perdition. Alas, no armor exists that can hold up to the power of Mahkteah's colossal club mace, but wearing this, you'll look good trying. |
| Ramno in-game pieces | — | General Valahk-Nor | A symbol of strength, speed, and yes, single-minded stubbornness in the pursuit of a goal, this beautiful ram cuirass will carry you into battle. Best not to think about it too much. |
| Telvaught | 42 | Felwyl, The Withered | Ancient beyond counting, this armor's steel is as ageless as it's original wearer, a vampire who was never defeated, but who shed the armor like a molted skin to achieve new form. Or so the legend says. |

|---|---|---|---|
| Epoch | 38 | Epic | Adorned with the antlers of the long-extinct great eolk, this armor set is said to contain the pagan spirit of the wild north woods. Though not officially sanctioned by the church, such superstitions are tolerated, provided the armor is sanctified in the blood of the church’s enemies. |
| Keeper's Oathno in-game pieces | — | Deluxe Edition | A variant of Crimson Oath armor, bestowed upon Nephilim who take The Keeper's Oath. Knights of the Keeper's Oath are charged with the collection and safeguard of all knowledge in Velchoria, both divine and profane, by any means necessary. Whether it be gold or iron, Keepers find a way. |
| Hex Knight | 50 | Xbox | Forged from thrice-cursed steel by the fabled hexalalurgists of the Drakfeld Steppes, the wearing of this armor provides not just protection, but a portent of strange things to come. |
| Moonlight Oathno in-game pieces | — | Discord | A variant of Crimson Oath Armor, bestowed upon Nephilim who take The Oath of the Moonlight. Paladins belonging to the Oath of the Moonlight, known by the pejorative Spectres, are Nephilim who operate in foreign lands. They're the Church's agents in pagan and secular lands, often resented but tolerated, because few have the martial might to dispel them. |
| Ossified Heartno in-game pieces | — | Discord | Harden your heart oh seeker of salvation for your foes are formidable and the Lord of Perdition burns even the strongest of will |
| Sonai Magistrateno in-game pieces | — | PS5 | As bright and colorful as the banners that hang above the high office of the Sonai magistrate, this armor set is a symbol of strength, discipline, and loyalty. Three things that will be sorely needed in days ahead. |
| Telvaught Sageno in-game pieces | — | Discord | The Sages of Clan Telvaught have had centuries to perfect their craft, weaving magic into their armor increasing their resilience and amplifying their power |
| Valiantno in-game pieces | — | Steam | Only the Valiant may wear this strange and prickly armor, for to wear it is to risk a view into the dark side of one’s own nature. The same spikes that point outward also point in. |
| Verdigrisno in-game pieces | — | Discord | A symbol of strength, speed, and yes, single-minded stubbornness in the pursuit of a goal, this beautiful Verdigris Cuirass will carry you into battle. Best not to think about it too much. |
| Watchman's Oathno in-game pieces | — | Twitch | It’s said that for a thousand years a knight wearing this armor stood vigil at the tower walls of Belwayne. Others say that it was not a single long-lived knight, but different knights who wore the same armor, long passed down. Now the tower is fallen, and the armor seeks a new wearer who will swear an oath to duty. Whether his life be short or long will depend on him. |

| Apostate | 26 | Crude set of armor worn by Nephilim Apostates. Designed to invert and mock the Order of the Crimson Moon. |

| Belwayne Knight | 56 | A stunning suit of armor worn by Belwayne's fierce defenders. Adorned in their phoenix heraldry. Threatened by the arrival of Solomon and the Nachtstahl Steel Mills, the Alemendrals called upon their homeland's knights to protect their interests in Gildenarch. Turning the city's Gilded and Mill Wards into centers of tension between the competing powers. |
| Champion's | 62 | A cuirass designed for the Champions of Litinstang. The city state of Litinstang in southern Armaea is famous for housing gladitorial arenas. Rumor has it some apostates who fled Velchoria found a living entertaining the masses across the sea. |
| Covenant Cleric | 43 | A beautiful cuirass forged in honor of the Cleric's Covenant.

| Crimson Dragon Assassin | 50 | A cumbersome cuirass, fit only for the toughest Nephilim, designed to stand against a dragon. Dragon Assassins were among the first uses of Nephilim soldiers by the Church. Since the later years after the Dark Crusade, dragons have been scarcely seen in the Velchorian Isles. |
| Crimson Dragon Commanderno in-game pieces | — | A cumbersome cuirass, fit only for the toughest Nephilim, designed to stand against a dragon. The Lunitarian Church teaches that Dragons are considered the most sinister creatures in all of Eden, tracing their lineage to the vile Demiurge of the Old World. |
| Crimson Oath | 50 | Specially crafted cuirass designed for Nephilim in service to the Knights of the Crimson Moon. The Order of the Crimson Moon emerged during the turbulent years following Cain's Dark Crusade.

These feared and respected knights uphold the imperial rule as a last line of defense, though historically this hasn't always been the case. |
| Divine Oathno in-game pieces | — | A variant of Crimson Oath armor, bestowed upon Nephilim who take The Oath of the Divine. Paladins belonging to the Oath of the Divine, colloquially known as Gold Hoods, watch over the capital city of Illuminar and its demigod authority, the Holy Lineage.

| Haedrik Knight | 56 | An ornate cuirass once belonging to a knight in service to House Haedrik from the western lands of Armaea. The Haedriks fled the Armaen political theatre in pursuit of new beginnings and economic supremacy. Their attractive, yet functional suits of armor dazzled the aristocracy of Gildenarch, garnering them favor and the attention of the city's major players. Few suits, such as this, were crafted for Nephilim usage. |
| Lunar Sentinel | 42 | Cuirass of the Lunar Sentinel No symbol is more harrowing to the Lunitarian faith than that of the Lunar Sentinel, the once faithful knights in service to Lunarin before the establishment of the Church. Legend tells that Lunarin's loyal knights disagreed with the Church's teachings and refused to join the new budding faith. |
| Midnight Oathno in-game pieces | — | A variant of Crimson Oath armor, bestowed upon Nephilim who take The Oath of Midnight. Paladins of the Oath of Midnight, sometimes called Black Hoods, wander the lands in search of demonic corruption.

Few mortals know of their existence, a testament to their guile and efficiency. |
| Pale Ascentno in-game pieces | — | A gorgeous white cuirass belonging to an infamous traitor. White Armor in reference to the fabled White Phoenix of Prosperity. An old fairy tale told to the children of Belwayne where a spectral Avian would herald an age of fortune to those under its guidance. |
| Revenantno in-game pieces | — | Named in honor of a revenant spirit who stood in protection over the crypts of Gildeus long ago, this cuirass will protect you from the blades and bludgeons of this world. In a time when even death isn't permanent, it's still best not to take any chances. |
| Rotkinno in-game pieces | — | A stout cuirass made from the melted and reforged steel of false idols. A great many pagan gods were worshipped before the unifying force of the church. Many say these old gods were demons. It’s a fine line between fighting a demon and fighting like one. |
| Ruined Belwayneno in-game pieces | — | Tragically marred armor, once worn by a knight of Belwayne. A soldier may die, but the steel lives on. May it protect you more than it did the last wearer. |
| Sanctus Zealot | 52 | An intimidating cuirass forged for the Sanctus Zealot. Legend tells of the first interfaith conflict between the anceint Lunar Sentinels and the Lunitarians Sanctus Zealots. In the end the Church was victorious by the hands of berzerk warriors who saw their faith as law. |
| Sovereign Sentry | 50 | Cuirass belonging to the Sentries of Nachtendale's Sovereign. Nachtendale has been the most successful and thriving city since the Rite of Desolation, in no small part to the Sovereign Sentries who've stood guard against the neighboring city states. |
| Telvaught Excoriatorno in-game pieces | — | Worn by the Excoriator's of the Telvaught Clan, this armor is unknown to the world as those beyond the clan who have seen it no longer remain |
| Vermillion Knightno in-game pieces | — | A distinct set of red armor belonging to Sir Camden of House Alemendral. A suit of rmor stained red, in tribute to the Nephilim, who saved humanity long ago. Unlike other kingdoms in Armaea, Belwayne looked favorably upon Nephilim, protecting their sovereignty within their domain and accepting them into their ranks as soldiers. |
Common questions about armor
How many armor sets are there in Crimson Moon?
There are 34 armor sets documented at the 1.0 launch window. A set covers four slots — helmet, chest, gauntlets and legs — so a full set is four pieces rather than one item.
Do armor sets have set bonuses?
Yes. The developers have said that some equipment belongs to larger armor sets which reward players for collecting matching gear, so wearing a matched set does something. What is not yet known is the detail: which bonus, at how many pieces, and how large. This page catalogues the sets and their acquisition; the thresholds are still to come.
Which armor sets are exclusive?
8 sets come from a platform or community promotion (Steam, PS5, Xbox, Discord or Twitch) and 2 from an edition or rarity tier. A further 3 drop from a named boss, and the remaining 21 have no specific source documented.
Does armor affect your build in Crimson Moon?
Yes. Armor pieces are one of the equipment categories that make up a build, alongside one- and two-handed weapons, shields and trinkets — and because the game has no classes, equipment is where build identity comes from.
