God of War · Equipment system
Armor Sets
Armor raises stats and can specialize combat traits; Kratos and Atreus have sets whose bonuses support different attributes or combat behaviors.
How it works
The guide describes armor as increasing stats related to survival and specializing traits valued in combat. Its examples include Kratos armor that increases Runic Attack damage and Atreus armor that increases arrow damage or strangling damage. New or existing armor can be crafted or upgraded using resources at shops, as described in the gameplay passage. The sources do not establish a complete set catalog or compare all set effects.
