Odogaron Armor Guide: Skills, Materials & Builds

Set identity

Odogaron Armor overview

Odogaron armor is for players who believe the best defense is a monster that never gets to finish a combo. The set's identity is speed, affinity and evasion, with a visual language that matches the crimson fanged wyvern.

It asks more of the player than a tank set. A missed dodge is more expensive, and the build's damage falls when you cannot reach a weak point. But for a confident Dual Blades or Long Sword player, it is one of the most satisfying lines in the game.

How to use Odogaron Armor

• Pair it with a fast weapon that can keep the crit chain active.
• The set is lighter on defensive skills; add a defensive gem or charm for a new monster.
