Armor list[edit | edit source]
- In the DS remake, most armors are strengthened.
- New armor parts are made by the Legendary Smith.
- The Freelancer and Onion Knight class can wear almost any armor part; on the other hand, the Ninja has now slightly limited armor.
Armor list (NES)[edit | edit source]
Default sorting is according to how early they can be found for free; items that can only be purchased are inserted according to the location of the earliest shop.
The Ninja is not listed because he can equip everything.
- Legend
- GP = Gil cost to purchase
- D = Defense
- E% = Evasion rate
- MD = Magic Defense
Common armor parts[edit | edit source]
These are the parts that every job can use. The earliest armor parts are found and used at the beginning of the game. The special parts should be equipped by every job at end game.

Light armor parts[edit | edit source]
These are the parts that can be equipped by the seven magic-using jobs. Some can also be equipped by a few more jobs. A set is made of three parts: robe (worn on the body), hat (worn on the head) and bracers (worn on the arms).

Geomancer & Bard[edit | edit source]
These two jobs can each wear their own body protection.
- Headgear: they can both wear the Feather hat and the common parts;
- Arms protection: the Bard can only wear the common parts; the Geomancer can also wear any bracers, including Power bracers.

Heavy armor parts[edit | edit source]
These are the armor parts that can be equipped by the so-called "tanks": Warriors, Knights, Dragoons and Vikings. Many parts can also be worn by some other jobs.
Each set is made of four parts: armor (worn on the body), helm (worn on the head), gloves (worn on the hands), and shield (carried on the left hand). Note that as long as a shield is worn on the right hand instead, the weapon carried in the left hand loses any special property.
The four "tank" jobs mentioned above can also wear the Power Bracers (see #Job-specific armor parts: Monk & Black Belt).

Job-specific armor parts[edit | edit source]
Monk & Black Belt[edit | edit source]
These two jobs have strong physical attack, but very limted defense. In particular, the Black Belt is a job that is used late in the game, but his defense is even lighter than the light armor worn by the magicians.

Onion Knight[edit | edit source]
The Onion armor parts can only be worn by an Onion Knight; not even the Ninja can wear them. These armor parts are very hard to obtain, therefore the Onion Knight can fill in some parts from the Crystal armor set.
