There is a variety of armor found throughout the castle, all of which boosts defense and some of which affects other [[Castlevania: Circle of the Moon/Gameplay#Stats & leveling|stats]] — and not always positively. Be careful not to lose all of your strength or intelligence when raising your defense. Unlike most games, armor cannot be bought or found in treasure chests — it can only be found by defeating [[Castlevania: Circle of the Moon/Enemy data#Item drops|enemies]].

Armor that is worn over the body. Robes generally [[Castlevania: Circle of the Moon/Gameplay#Stats & leveling|raise]] intelligence over defense, while armor and mail raises defense without boosting intelligence. Only one piece can be equipped at a time so you have to choose what works best for you. Be sure to only choose a robe over armor if it will have an effect on your MP recovery rate. If you have an intelligence score of 730 and equip the Night Suit, you won't recovery MP any faster, so you're better off with strong armor. Early on you may want robes, and then switch to armor once your intelligence is high enough that you don't lose MP while your DSS combination of choice is active. When you are fighting [[Castlevania: Circle of the Moon/Enemies#Lilith|Lilith]] and [[Castlevania: Circle of the Moon/Bosses#Dracula|Dracula]] you'll want a strong robe, such as the {{CotMitem|type=Equipment|name=Sage Robe}}. You'll want to use a lot of [[Castlevania: Circle of the Moon/DSS#Uranus combinations|summons]] and those two enemies deal so much damage that a boost in defense won't make a difference.

Amulets and gauntlets worn on the arm. While many raise defense, the main purpose of arm equipment is to raise your other [[Castlevania: Circle of the Moon/Gameplay#Stats & leveling|stats]]. Luck boosting equipment is highly useful when going after [[Castlevania: Circle of the Moon/Items|items]], equipment, and [[Castlevania: Circle of the Moon/Cards|Cards]], however they should be exchanged for something else when you have what you need.
