Armor set refers to a group of up to six individual pieces of armor items of the same weight class with skins designed to match each other. Typically they have similar names and their icons are also visually similar.
Pieces of armor which don't fit the above description are described on the List of non-set armor pieces article.
Acquisition summary[edit]
- Loot
Often the most unreliable method, with a large chance of an item dropping with different stats to that desired.
- Crafting
Heavy armor is crafted by Armorsmiths. Medium armor is crafted by Leatherworkers. Light armor is crafted by Tailors.
- Trading post
If armor pieces are not account bound, then they can be traded between players via the trading post.
- NPC vendors
Vendors for karma (heart vendors, temple armor vendors), dungeon tokens, raid or strike currency, badges of honor. Occasionally higher tier armor costs a combination of different currencies, such as ascended PvP or WvW armor also requiring Grandmaster Marks. Some vendors just accept coin (Order armor, Cultural armor)
- Rewards
Items awarded directly to the player from achievements (mistward armor, , the personal story, reward tracks, and WvW weekly reward chests.
- Gem store
Armor sets purchased from the gem store are of the skin-only variety and have no associated stats.
See the filter options on the table below for further information.

Partial armor sets[edit]
Some individual pieces are similar to others but one or several parts don't exist. Unlike non-set armor pieces, pieces of those sets have similar method of aquisition, name, and matching skins. They come from different sources, see the specific armor set page for aquisition method.
Unobtainable armor[edit]
The following armor sets are either fully or partially unobtainable. Before the changes made to PvP rewards, players could receive pieces of these sets from reward chests and by following certain recipes. Now that PvP rewards are fixed to certain drop tables, no new players can obtain these armor sets, except for pieces that are able to be obtained elsewhere. Players which had these pieces before the change still have them, and there is still a slot for them in the wardrobe.
