Armor Acquisition
October 27, 2026 at 09:04 PM
Added armor acquisition routes and merchant prices
Find armor through merchants, chests, quests and starting equipment. A purchase price applies only to its merchant route.
For listed attributes and effects, see Armor. The tables cover the acquisition methods listed for each item.
Blank availability cells leave the unlock time unspecified. Airship chapter conditions apply only to that listing. Colosseum inventory expands as Proofs of Victory are earned; not every listed item is sold on the first visit.
