Basic information
NOTE: "primitive armor" is the only set without bonuses, so it won't be listed.


So, there are 15 armor sets with bonuses in the game, which include:
5 light armor sets;
6 medium armor sets;
4 heavy armor sets;

  • Armor set consists of 4 elements: helmet, robe, gloves, boots. Each element gives its own unique effect.
  • You get a special bonus when wearing 4 parts of one set.
  • All effects and bonuses depend on the armor level.
  • Set bonus is given for the lowest-level worn armor. This means if you have 3 elements lvl4 and 1 element lvl2, you will receive a bonus level 2.

Cosmetic armor
The developers have added paid DLCs with exclusive armor sets for the game. The armor before the red bar is already released, and the armor after is not yet.

In order, they are signed as Desert, Hoarder, Marauder, Crimson Warlord, Samurai.


But there is one BUT!
This is a cosmetic armor – a simple skin for the character. Without characteristics, without effects, without anything.
Cosmetic armor 2
There are also conditionally fгee skins!
As far as I understand, to get them, you need to watch the developers' streams on Twitch, and maybe you'll get something there.

The armor set is called Watcher, and the hats are Purple/Blue Pimp Hats, individual skins without the set.



Hope I've helped you figure out with armor sets in such a great game as 7 Days To Die.
Also I'd be very grateful if you and your friends would rate this guide!

Have a nice day!

That makes sense and yet I did not grok to it. Thank you!

If you want an armor to become available as a skin, you need to disassemble it
Amelia 11 Sep @ 12:11pm 
Is there any logic to what items become available as skins when? I've got a full set of all light armor in my inventory, crafted, but only some of the pieces are available as cosmetics. I suspect this is because I've naturally looted some of those - can you confirm?

Good guide. I've been wanting to invest a point in one of the armor perks so I'll find more armorer books, but didn't know the various bonuses, so didn't know where I wanted to dedicate to. This has been a big help for that.
