Armor Tier List
Best armor sets after the May and July 2026 content updates.
Armor in One More Delve complements your build — melee tanks want defense and stagger resist, mages want mana regen where available, hybrid builds balance both. ATVR added three notable armor sets during Early Access and 1.0.
Tier S — Endgame (Dungeon 4–5)
Dungeon 4 armor sets (×2) — Added May 20, 2026 with the Level 4 content patch. Community consensus places these at endgame for coordinated groups clearing Level 4–5 on higher settings.
Dungeon 5 exclusive pieces — New clothing and armor models shipped with the July 23, 2026 1.0 release. Still being tiered as players document stat bonuses.
Tier A — Mid Game (Dungeon 3)
Dungeon 3 armor set — Added in the May 20 patch alongside increased enemy health in Level 3. Strong upgrade before tackling Level 4.
Tier B — Early Game (Dungeon 1–2)
Starter hub gear and early blueprint drops. Replace quickly — do not over-invest in crafting tier-1 armor beyond your first few runs.
How to Obtain Armor
- Defeat bosses and elites for blueprint drops.
- Mine crystals and smash crates for mats.
- Craft at the forge.
- Equip at the hub armory before entering portals.
