All new armor set locations in Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree

Shadow of the Erdtree is unleashing incredibly powerful new bosses into Elden Ring alongside some amazing armor sets that can protect you from their attacks.

It’s important to note that the new armor you find in Shadow of the Erdtree might not be better than what you’re using. As players have had plenty of time to finish the game and all of Elden Ring’s secrets are available online, you might already be decked out in post-game gear that’s hard to top.

Once you’ve unlocked access to the Shadow Realm after defeating Mohg, it won’t be long until you have access to new equipment that will shield you from the DLC’s incredibly difficult boss encounters. Here’s how you find the new pieces of armor in Elden Ring’s Shadow of the Erdtree DLC.
