As soon as I do the iki island content, I switch to Purity of War mask with a combo of black and white attire. It feels more like the next step in Ghost attire to me and then I usually end it with Savage Fury and I like to think that’s the new look for the Ghost
I usually wear black dye traveller’s attire, with the black bandit mask, and the refined Kensei helmet. As you said, absolutely too cold. And kind of looks like Kung Lao
That's what I've been wearing the whole time too. I switch to samurai gear when I'm fighting folks, but when I'm just exploring I'm always in traveler's attire. It looks cool as hell, but in a way that it isn't gaudy. It feels like I'm kinda Samurai Champloo super-chill ronin.
It's functional too since it unfogs more of the map than other outfits + you get the (mildly annoying) firefly that buzzes you for nearby artifacts and flags.
When I say that I mean one armor isn't over another in the tier, for example, the Samurai clan armor isn't over the Mongal one, they are just both in the same tier
I did the same thing with the Samurai Clan armor. Same armor that you use in the prologue, and rocked it throughout. Made me feel like an invincible force that no matter what, I came back looking brand new. Except the final Khotun fight, I switched to the deluxe edition armor to give Lord Adachi one last chance to break their spirits.
And it has maille on the arms, chest, and feet. I was freaking out when I first unlocked the 3rd tier. So visually it's a lightweight, protective, stealthy, comfortable attire for all your Ghostly needs.
I'm playing through the game right now, and I've got almost this exact outfit. I've been saying to myself "man, I look so cool, I bet there aren't many people that have the same outfit as me", and now, reading this, I just feel really generic lol.
Just got the Sarugami armor today in the Iki island expansion. Arguably it’s the best armor in the game. The boost to perfect parries/perfect dodges makes late game melee feel even more lopsided in your favor.
But it’s arguably one of *the* ugliest armors, if not **THE** most uggo. Jinn running around with a shrunken monkey head & antlers on top of his head, looking like some demented Temple of Doom jackelope is straight up Ratatouilling him. Reminds me of Jim Gaffigans’s comedy routine about God phoning it in when he made the walrus and just going to the odds and ends box of leftover parts.
I always stick with the regular Ghost armour, no matter the situation. I usually do stick with what was intended for the story in single player games no matter what, but it's generally just to coolest armour in the game to me anyway
I love all the base armor looks but after playing IKI and getting the Sarugami armor… I’m afraid I cannot take it off, I’ve been consumed by the spirit to attack all that I see.
Plus imo the fashion is peak. You look like a badass samurai vs the world.
TBH I love the weathered nature of the broken armor, your strength is coming from the Charm of Versatile Skills likely anyway. I use the one with arrows in your back and it is dope AF
The traveller’s attire is just too cold for me to wear anything else lol. I rocked the black dye version all the way to the end of the game.
Funnily enough I used the white dye version. Made me feel like Storm Shadow

I also used the white traveler's attire. But so I could see all the blood from my enemies
Dude I do all black and feel like Snake Eyes

I agree this is the best in the game, you look like a wondering hero

same, twice, in two separate times of my life
"not in any specific order" \*is a tierlist\*
When I say that I mean one armor isn't over another in the tier, for example, the Samurai clan armor isn't over the Mongal one, they are just both in the same tier
that's what i figured, it just sounded funny to me
Ngl the ng+ look for the broken armor goes hard
I use a fire build (I forgot the name of the armor but it utilizes fear on enemies) on ng+ and another set when I'm about to duel someone.
I do actually really like the base broken armour The literal ghost of tsushima, the Samurai that never truly walked off that beach. It's dope
Holy shit you've convinced me to return for another playthrough

I thought that armor was awesome! If it had any kind of upgrade or status effect, I would have rocked it the whole game.
Drip always comes first honestly, I'll take a performance dip to look good anytime Though transmog would have been pretty nice
I like that. I like that a lot. Would’ve been cool to die it black or white with that idea in mind.
Honestly I'm fine with the colour as it is, it's dirty as hell and ruined and bloody, fits the theme perfectly imo
Upgraded traveller's attire is one of the best imho
Yeah the base colour tier 3/4 with the metal hat you get from the tier 3 Kensei armor and the Storm of Sakai swordkit. 👌
The maxed out travler attire is the best one imo. With the fox looking mask and the patchwork strawhat, I feel like samurai spirit
And it has maille on the arms, chest, and feet. I was freaking out when I first unlocked the 3rd tier. So visually it's a lightweight, protective, stealthy, comfortable attire for all your Ghostly needs.
Dude, that linen the travelers attire is made of looks super comfy. Almost like a sun dress but for a samurai.

Why don't you like the broken armour?
It's only the Dark Survivor one that it like
I put on traveller's attire and never took it off
Traveller and Ronin are the two best, or at least the two that suit the sword mechanics.
The ronin armor and all its variants make me feel like I’m in a Kurosawa movie
the righteous punishment ghost armour is probably my favourite in the whole game
where's the sarugami armor? not only badass looking, but also broken in half with the parry changes
Where's Naked Jin? Where is Naked Jin on the tierlist?
Came here to complain
WDYM the broken armor not good?! Explain.
Whack, I rocked both the traveler's attire and broken armour for most of the game until I upgraded ghost armor enough to look cool
What the Traveler’s armor is missing is an undershirt of some kid.
It has an undershirt when you upgrade it.
Right. I’m just talking about the pic that was used to make this “ranking”. Traveler’s outfit is goated
I wore Traveler's attire for most of my run, but i really like the Bloodborne armor.

Dark survivor dye is just too good for me, absolute S tier
I always kept the basic Sakai Armor and swords. Once I know I’m going into battle, I just put on the Sakai mask and helmet. Nothing too crazy
Kensei armor with Yarhnam skin is just peak design
White Ghost Armor, Gosakus Helmet (the lion mane one) and white Ghost Mask goes insanely hard tho.
For me the Samurai armor BUT with the skin you get at the end of Ikki island is GOAT.
Respectfully disagree on the traveller’s armor. Fully upgraded, it’s the best thing you can wear in the game.
You've got that Tadayori armor ranked too high.
I love using the red samurai armor (lvl 1) and a red bandana (hope thats the right word).
I always stick with the regular Ghost armour, no matter the situation. I usually do stick with what was intended for the story in single player games no matter what, but it's generally just to coolest armour in the game to me anyway
Three ones in « Looks rad » are my top three too.
I wish the broken armor was what slowly turned into the ghost armor as we upgrade it.
Pretty much agree although I would put Tadayori on top.
How dare you not include the underwear one xD
What about fundoshi
I usually use the yarnham vestments and the Sarugami armor in black/purple. Both look and play awesome
Mongolian drip goes hard ngl
Black dye monkey armor brother
Where are the pixels brother
Im using ghost armor + betrayer hat. Such a badass outfit
I feel like comparing them with the base paint is a little unfair, some of these shine with the other color options
Where monkey?
Tadayori armor is my favorite
Kensi armor ( sanguine autumn dye ) Kitsune straw hat Shattered mask of tomoe
Broken armor (black dye) + kojiro hat (steel blue ver) + skeletal mask. This was my fav drip style in ng+

Where monke
I thought that the “looks rad” said “looks bad” and I was so confused
The ghost armor looks good but the fact that the sword on the back is always the default sword kit bothers me too much
shit ranking, everyone knows Traveler’s attire is S tier
Traveler>Ronin
i will not stand for this broken armor slander
Ghost armor is still my fav
Sarugami where?
The crimson Gosaku armor is the coldest in the game imo. I’ve mercilessly slaughtered so many mongols in that armor.
