I heard theres a rare item at the beginning of the game called an ashen estus flask.. it's super rare, and its like an estus for your FP. Extremely rare and hard to find, only veteran players can harness this powerful item
rumor says that if you put ob one of each pieces of the outfit and have the sages spell equipped and use dark sword solaire sommuns and activates poise
+nino callava Search up Pickle-Pee and Pump-a-Rum's trade item list. I found the items through sheer testing back when the game came out, but I know there are plenty of lists now.
+Ryoki Well he does have a point, If they decided to make Lorians armor rare then why isn't Solaires armor rare? I'd say that Solaires armor is more rare than Lorians armor since you literally just look at the shop after killing the boss to get it, While with Solaires full armor you need to drop a few items to the birds. I'm not saying I agree with his chosen words but still, He does have some kind of a point.
alban board I didn't say anything on it being rare or not, or if it should be or not, but I think they "hid" Solaire's armor in the crow trades as both a neat hidden armor and as an easy to obtain set if you know the items. That way it's cool for the fans and if you want to dress as everyone's favorite sunbro, then you certainly can.
Eathonylunchtano Really? There is like a hundred awesome armor in the DS series and his favourite is Smoughs!? No wonder he does this kind of games, the guy is out of his mind.
Most of these armors aren't that rare, most just require killing a specific enemy or getting a specific set of ashes. The rarest on the list is probably the Sunless Set, since it requires completing an entire NPC story line, but it's still not really rare. Also the last armor set shown, isn't the Court Sorcerer set, it's the Karla's Set.
For those complaining how "rare" means hard to get in these games, it doesn't, rare means how many of those are obtainable per playthrough (one), because there's only one "rare" fits this meaning, we all know how easy they are to get but if you miss one of these in your first playthrough then you'll have to re do everything to get that ONE armor set in NG+ (or in another character)
+Rygarr Treat Rarity isn't a point of view. Having an armour that only a certain percentage of people who beat the game found, or had to farm for specific pieces would make it a rare armour. Anyone who has beaten all of the bosses has access to ALL of these apart from the Knight sets!
+Xanatos since everyone has access to it, it's common, none of these are rare at all, what rygarr said is the equivalent of saying that common cards in a trading card game are rare if they are rare in your opinion, rare is things that have a low percentage of you getting and those armors have a 100 percent chance of being gotten each playthrough, black knight, silver knight, and the evangelist set, those take time to get full sets and have a low percentage of dropping making them rare.
i think most armors did, its like they look better than they did, but bland next to the new armor sets, they really stepped it up for DS3, so the old stuff looks just that
Grey Fox Also the fucking neck is exposed. I agree that some armours in Dark souls 3 look amazing but it seems like Miyazaki is trying to shit on all the Dark souls 2 armours to get revenge on Yui. The only Dark souls 2 armour that looks decent is Creighton armour.
SuperSonic Toast isnt it when you can get it by not trying and is really easy to find most of the time bc if not i want my monet back on these dung pies XD
FuryousD I never played DS1, only 2 and 3 but watched 2-3 playtroughs of the first one Not going to spoil anything but if you loved the first game, you will love the final boss
i would of finished ds3 by now but ive stayed back so me and my friends can finish it together, but that being said i know who the final boss is i looked up allot of stuff, plus i just had to have artorias's gear it's my favorite in the whole series
none of these are really rare though? Like you just need to play the game "properly" for them lol, so like most of us do I feel like. Exploring, and checking on the shrine maiden every now and then after boss fights..
+notPSO Josh only a few like the dragon rider set and nameless kings were, I have literally every set in this. ideology and only rare ones were those two because nameless is so diffixult, all the other can be bought from the maiden
Almost none of these are "Rare" They're mostly easily bought from the old hags shop. Like dancers Armour, how is it rare? You kill the boss and can buy it from the hag, not rare. :/ Edit: I will give you Havel's Armor since you gotta kill the real one and manage to find his body afterwards in a separate area. Symbol of avarice since it is indeed a rare item drop and mimics are limited, THIS is what rare armor is. 2 outta 25
Should change the title to Nostalgia Souls, cuz these 3/4 of these armors aren't rare, hell I would even call some of them the most used armors in dark souls 3...
The sunless armor is probably the hardest set to get here without a guide, but even then this entire list pales in comparison to farming for enemy armors. Hell, the rarest thing in the game right now is probably the Darkmoon Blade miracle due to how broken it's covenant is.
I love the souls franchise, and all the armor and weapons are great. My only complaint is I wish they didn't just re-skin some of the old armors. Havel's, for instance. If you want to play a tanky class, your pretty much stuck wearing Havel's in every game, so it gets kind of boring. I understand you can wear what you want, but if your going for durability and armor, Havel's was a no brainer. As much as I love it, I wish we had other options that are as strong, but look different.
Exile Armor had me renew my vow: Night gathers, and now my watch begins. It shall not end until my death. I shall take no wife, hold no lands, father no children. I shall wear no crowns and win no glory. I shall live and die at my post. I am the sword in the darkness. I am the watcher on the walls. I am the fire that burns against the cold, the light that brings the dawn, the horn that wakes the sleepers, the shield that guards the realms of men. I pledge my life and honor to the Night's Watch, for this night and all the nights to come!
+Rabbit Tenvia Story time with Rabbit it doesnt occur naturally, in order to fight that boss you have to kill the npc who gives you the flag if you dont kill her it doesnt trigger
+Luis Perez I don't believe you need to kill her. Once you've got 3 of the lords down, you'll hear her voice and she'll automatically bring you back to the Dancer boss battle to continue your story progression.
Only things that can be considered rare on this list are the Symbol of Avarice, black knight & silver knight sets since their parts are dropped by enemies The rest are either found in fixed locations or can be bought
How is that considered f***ing rare? 90% of the Sets are available to buy after defeating a boss or easily found somewhere! Most of the shown Sets even require to kill bosses necessary to advance in story. Wolf Knight-Dark Firelink shrine handmaiden sells it - No requirement, she has it always Dancer Set - Buy after defeating Dancer - a for the story necessary boss Dragonslayer - Pick up after Nameless king - The archdragon peak boss (optional area) Lorians armor - Buy from shrine handmaid after defeating Lothric the lord of cinder - a necessary story boss Dragonscale armor - Nameless king mentioned above - can be bought from shrine handmaiden Firelink armor - After defeating the endboss - buy from handmaiden gundyr - Buy after defeating champion gundyr in dark firelink Havel - After killing havel in archdragon peak get it from the bridge above wolf of farron Undead legion - buy after abyss watchers Faraam- Defeat Albert in Grand archives , then buy Brass armour - Darkmoon tomb - Shortly before Anor londo bonfire theres a illusionary wall with a corpse and this armor on it Favor armor - Kill the beasts around Archdeacon McDonall - they give a ring - if you have the ring you can buy the armor Eastern Armor - Buy after handing in Easterness ashes Mornes armor - After Eygol helped you with Dragonknight armor or you killed him you can buy it Smough Armor - can be bought after defeating aldrich Symbol of Avarice - From Mimics -RARE DROP - THE FIRST RARE ITEM YOU SHOW - AWESOME Sunless - After killing Sirris or Lothric can be bought then Black iron - Kill knight slayer tsorig in smouldering lake - he is a red invader- then you can buy it Exile - Kill the two hostile npcs above farron keep bonfire and you can buy it Outrider knight - the boreal knight in grand archives drops the whole set Black knight armor - RARE drop from black knights Silver Knight armor - RARE drop from silver knights Painting guardian - can be found in the blades of the darkmoon convenant tower - just drop down court sorcerer - This isnt even the court sorcerer set you show - you show Karlas set - which you by the way get from either killing karla - then buying it or giving prisoners chief ashes then buying it. Court sorcerers armor is acquired from profaned capital - near a location with a single hand monster Congrats, 3 actually rare armors, I had more actual rare sets in my first playthrough...
+Sakuya Izayoi you are right about wolf knight set but if everyone stopped spoiling themselves on the internet there would be many players who won't know that the area untended graves even exists within the game wich you have to cross before you get to dark firelink shrine where you can finally buy it so if that would be the case you could say that its rare even if you just can buy it ( just my opinion )
When this said Rare armor I thought it meant that it hardly drops but most if not all these armors you can buy once you beat the person using it like the Dancers armor and undead legion armor
aside from Havel, Wolf knight, Gundyr, dragonscale, favor, symbol of avarice, All of these armours are either picked up in relatively unhidden locations, gained from a boss, or just farmed off enemies until it drops. But Aside from 4 sets and a helmet. You really can't miss them unless you figure out where the secret areas are (while symbol is just a random drop from any mimic)
+Mediph Eranz (Mediphious) i wouldn't exactly call the garden's area secret unless u don't explore and go strait ahead after the dancer boss fight, it is however an optional area whereas archdragon peak is a totally hidden area requiring a special thing from the before said mentioned optional area to even access it
Mediph Eranz well if u go through the consumed king's garden it leads to the unattended graves after which is the dark fire link shrine so if u don't miss the garden which u shouldn't if u are exploring like u are supposed to do the u wont miss it at all, and don't u have to go through ash lake to get to the bed of chaos or some other boss? i'm not sure my ds1 knowledge is rusty cause i haven't played/watched through it in a while
You have to hit a wall behind a chest. Not many people do that. They think the reward doesn't hide anything else. Ash lake was hidden behind not one, but two hidden walls. and was completely optional.
Mediph Eranz yea i remember that part but i thought that u had to go down there to progress, i was just mistaken or maybe it was another area i was thinking of that is similar
Most of these set arent rare, but instead require you to kill someone or somthing. Some of these armors can be purchased from the shop once you have the right ashes.
I use these set instead and it does look nice as well Wolf knight helm Wolf knight armor Drakeblood gauntlet/ Silver Knight gauntlet/ Cathedral Knight gauntlet Lorian legging/ Dancer legging
I don't think you guys really understand the concept of rare... Most of these sets are fixed pickups (easy to find by just playing through the game and not being blind), dropped by an NPC, or sold at firelink after killing a boss or NPC. The only 'rare' armor here is symbol of avarice, the mimic hat. It's an extremely rare drop from mimics, but you have better odds of getting it if you put the mimic to sleep with an undead hunter charm before killing it. A close second is havel's set, as it's a bit complicated to get (kill havel in archdragon peak, his set then becomes a fixed pickup on the bridge in farron keep, near the stray demon).
Missed these I know for sure are rare: Creighton's armor set Sunless armor set Fire witch armor set Solaire armor set Cornyx's armor set (without killing him)
The middle armor set in your thumbnail was gifted to me by my friend, sadly it's I accidentally started a new game. Don't atck the knight sitting in the firelink shrine!
The pyromaniacers apprentice armor set now that's rare I hardly ever see anyone with that seeing as you have to have an npc survived a hole boss fight and then magical know to go to a random area of the game that you don't need to go back to. Dont surprise me that hardly anyone has it lol
I heard theres a rare item at the beginning of the game called an ashen estus flask.. it's super rare, and its like an estus for your FP. Extremely rare and hard to find, only veteran players can harness this powerful item
Is it bad I missed this item and had to look up a tutorial on how to get it?
@@Somefuckingdumbass1811I did the exact same thing
@@sk3tch20 😭
serioulsy 70% of this stuff isn't rare.you can just buy it after the boss fight.

Take off the "rare" from the title please, most of these you can just buy from the freaking vendor. Stop click baiting like this.
+Hanseong Lee Eun
Gotta love the clickbait from these guys.
Most of these armors aren't that rare, most just require killing a specific enemy or getting a specific set of ashes. The rarest on the list is probably the Sunless Set, since it requires completing an entire NPC story line, but it's still not really rare. Also the last armor set shown, isn't the Court Sorcerer set, it's the Karla's Set.
dont see any rare armor here and you some how missed armor of the sun.
Agreed. I'd say the Sun Armor is a lot more rare considering what you have to do to get it and most people won't or don't know how
gona say they just added ¨rare¨ to the title just as click bate.
For those complaining how "rare" means hard to get in these games, it doesn't, rare means how many of those are obtainable per playthrough (one), because there's only one "rare" fits this meaning, we all know how easy they are to get but if you miss one of these in your first playthrough then you'll have to re do everything to get that ONE armor set in NG+ (or in another character)
Rare armor is armor you spend hours farming for not this stuff that you can find or buy.
Rare armor is dependent on your point of view. They are rare to me. Shu
+Rygarr Treat Rarity isn't a point of view.
Having an armour that only a certain percentage of people who beat the game found,
or had to farm for specific pieces would make it a rare armour.

Anyone else think the Faraam armour looked better in dark souls 2?
+Gerald Milton same with lucatiels/mirrah armor which was one of my favs in ds2.
i think most armors did, its like they look better than they did, but bland next to the new armor sets, they really stepped it up for DS3, so the old stuff looks just that
I agree, probably because the the shoulders were more upright and less draggy
Grey Fox Also the fucking neck is exposed. I agree that some armours in Dark souls 3 look amazing but it seems like Miyazaki is trying to shit on all the Dark souls 2 armours to get revenge on Yui. The only Dark souls 2 armour that looks decent is Creighton armour.

This main theme gets me everytime, it is so good, skyrim like.
Skyrim sounds more of a charge forward while Dark Souls sounds like loss of hope and unbalance tranquil

skyrim is shit, dark souls shits on shitty skyrim
+Snow he's right, you know
+Diego Liceaga no one is right or wrong, it's called opinion.
I thought sunset armor would be one because not a lot of players would concentrate on a side quest for that nice looking armor.
waaat! the dragon. slayer armor still doesn't have the pomf?? 0/10.
+chardude ikr im disappoint.
They still gave it to us unlike B-Team/DS2
+Baroque Chevalier Noir At east DaS2 gave you the Heide knight mask. DaS3 look amazing but they definitely went lazy on the armor sets imo.
+chardude It didn't have the plume in DS1 when you got the set, so I don't know what the fuck you're on about.
+A Particularly Moist Sponge dark Souls 0/10/for no pomf too
i should deck you, most of em aren't rare.
literally none of these armour are rare, you can buy just about if not all of them from the hag

+notPSO Josh only a few like the dragon rider set and nameless kings were, I have literally every set in this. ideology and only rare ones were those two because nameless is so diffixult, all the other can be bought from the maiden
Shquain I only said most. you can't buy the mimic head either ;D
+notPSO Josh threw 20 fucking charms at them still dont have it
+MrJJ6640 Don't worry, the last mimic has a guaranteed drop.
Let's take a moment to appreciate how amazing the firelink armor set looks
they should change the title to "Dark Souls III Here Are Some Random Armor Sets"
Almost none of these are "Rare" They're mostly easily bought from the old hags shop. Like dancers Armour, how is it rare? You kill the boss and can buy it from the hag, not rare. :/ Edit: I will give you Havel's Armor since you gotta kill the real one and manage to find his body afterwards in a separate area. Symbol of avarice since it is indeed a rare item drop and mimics are limited, THIS is what rare armor is. 2 outta 25
Rare means there's only one
+Trysten Richey In this context it means hard to obtain.
+Dark Embrace Just a little FYI the symbol of avarice has a 100% drop rate off a particular mimic near the late game.
+Dark Embrace maybe the dark and silver knight armor too since it's a drop.
+everski6 I guess I got lucky at the lothric high wall. it looks hilarious
THAT soundtrack though..
Should change the title to Nostalgia Souls, cuz these 3/4 of these armors aren't rare, hell I would even call some of them the most used armors in dark souls 3...
I can agree with that, they probably just saw the armor and said lets show off with a clickbait title
thanks for showing me more of the backs of these armors than front. back is definetly more interesting.
Am I the only one jumping for joy because TARKUSSSSSS!?
+Brendan Pace Tarkus' cousin, Tsoryg will be wanting a word with you.
The sunless armor is probably the hardest set to get here without a guide, but even then this entire list pales in comparison to farming for enemy armors. Hell, the rarest thing in the game right now is probably the Darkmoon Blade miracle due to how broken it's covenant is.
how many things from dark souls 1 are in this game?
A lot
+Mike Mortis Less than 50%.
about half the shit in the game
+KHRSace just wait for the 2 dlcs later this year
I use the dancer helm with the wolf knight chest. They compliment each other well since both have metal plates with light blue cloth accents :))

Pray that is might be in a Dlc. Don't lose hope, The legend might yet return!
I wouldn't really consider the armor you can purchase rare, but whatevs
I love the souls franchise, and all the armor and weapons are great. My only complaint is I wish they didn't just re-skin some of the old armors. Havel's, for instance. If you want to play a tanky class, your pretty much stuck wearing Havel's in every game, so it gets kind of boring.

how is the dancer stuff rare you literally buy it after the boss
+dismayingaura might be because most people didn't know how to trigger that boss
+Luis Perez It... it occurs naturally. its an actual boss
+Rabbit Tenvia Story time with Rabbit doesn't really occur naturally though. you wouldn't know it's there w/out looking at a guide first
+Rabbit Tenvia Story time with Rabbit it doesnt occur naturally, in order to fight that boss you have to kill the npc who gives you the flag if you dont kill her it doesnt trigger

I am pretty sure that you showed Karla's set when you had "Court Sorcerer Armor" listed.
Lol these casuals didn't include the Drakeblood set.
yet included armors bought after killing the boss

When this said Rare armor I thought it meant that it hardly drops but most if not all these armors you can buy once you beat the person using it like the Dancers armor and undead legion armor
thx for another useless video gamespot
aside from Havel, Wolf knight, Gundyr, dragonscale, favor, symbol of avarice, All of these armours are either picked up in relatively unhidden locations, gained from a boss, or just farmed off enemies until it drops. But Aside from 4 sets and a helmet. You really can't miss them unless you figure out where the secret areas are (while symbol is just a random drop from any mimic)
+Mediph Eranz (Mediphious) i wouldn't exactly call the garden's area secret unless u don't explore and go strait ahead after the dancer boss fight, it is however an optional area whereas archdragon peak is a totally hidden area requiring a special thing from the before said mentioned optional area to even access it
I was suggesting more along the lines of the other firelink. It can be missed. Like Ash lake in DS1
Mediph Eranz well if u go through the consumed king's garden it leads to the unattended graves after which is the dark fire link shrine so if u don't miss the garden which u shouldn't if u are exploring like u are supposed to do the u wont miss it at all, and don't u have to go through ash lake to get to the bed of chaos or some other boss? i'm not sure my ds1 knowledge is rusty cause i haven't played/watched through it in a while
You have to hit a wall behind a chest. Not many people do that. They think the reward doesn't hide anything else. Ash lake was hidden behind not one, but two hidden walls. and was completely optional.
Mediph Eranz yea i remember that part but i thought that u had to go down there to progress, i was just mistaken or maybe it was another area i was thinking of that is similar
CLICK BAIT BULLLSHIT!
What still bothes me is Artorias' ankles are the size of toothpicks
+John Smith i find the dancer boots seem to look like what artorias boots might have looked like befor he had his battle with the dark.
I think "rare" is a overstatement "unique" is what you should call these sets
My reaction to seeing Ornstein's armor in this game:
*Jizz...EVERYWHERE!*
Same with the artorias armour THE LEGACY LIVES ON
I think GameSpot doesn't know that rare just applies to RNG and not to "got there and grab it"
4:57 that's not court sorcerers armour
RARE? holy shit...I only bought almost all of these sets at the old woman at the FIRELINK SHRINE
the artorias armor made me cry so much I'll miss sif
Most of these set arent rare, but instead require you to kill someone or somthing. Some of these armors can be purchased from the shop once you have the right ashes.
how is undead legion armor rare when i find them everytime i get invaded
1:51 the armor that I like the most and that I always use
TFW Dragon Slayer Armor brings back intense PTSD.
Artorias has returned
that Dragonscale armor might be considered "rare", cos it is faking hard to beat that mothegkjdhfgkjdfhgjkfdg
The "Court Sorcerer" set is actually Karla's armor. You know Karla? The dark witch you save from Irithyll Dungeon? GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER!
TOP 4
-Dragonslayer Armor -Armor of Favor -Outrider Knight Armor -Black Knight Armor
Made a third character now with an idea in mind for him to be GIANT DAD FROM DS 1. Legend never dies
Sadly, the armor and mask aren't in the game.
Glad to see some armors made their return from DS1
Guys when they mean by Rare armor they probably mean that you can only get it once or you know they messed up.
Try this set:
1. Silver Mask
2. Fallen Knight Armor
3. Dancer Gauntlet
4. Dancer Trouser
ugly
Marek Nešpor Why? Because there is no pink on it? -Girls
It is ugly
Try a better set
no helm
Drang Armor
Leonhard's Gauntlets
Alva leggings
I use these set instead and it does look nice as well
Wolf knight helm
Wolf knight armor
Drakeblood gauntlet/ Silver Knight gauntlet/ Cathedral Knight gauntlet
Lorian legging/ Dancer legging
Glad the Abyss Watcher armor migrated over from BloodBorn!
I don't think you guys really understand the concept of rare...
Most of these sets are fixed pickups (easy to find by just playing through the game and not being blind), dropped by an NPC, or sold at firelink after killing a boss or NPC.
The only 'rare' armor here is symbol of avarice, the mimic hat. It's an extremely rare drop from mimics, but you have better odds of getting it if you put the mimic to sleep with an undead hunter charm before killing it. A close second is havel's set, as it's a bit complicated to get (kill havel in archdragon peak, his set then becomes a fixed pickup on the bridge in farron keep, near the stray demon).
Now all I need is the BK Halberd and the balder shield and I'm good with the return of ornsteins armour set
Missed these I know for sure are rare:
Creighton's armor set
Sunless armor set
Fire witch armor set
Solaire armor set
Cornyx's armor set (without killing him)
Artorias (wolf slayer) set FTW
Oh wow , sets that you buy for walking through the game?!?!? Dang , that is rare!
currently rocking the fallen knight armor w/ the dark leggings, have the whole dark set but i prefer the fallen knight set
lautrec's armor is missing something in the neck if you compare it to the inventory item
tfw you spend so much on armor, you can't afford a single purging stone.
This should honestly be changed to "Unique Armor Sets" because a lot of these are not rare, you get them by progressing through the game naturally.
I started laughing when it said undead legion armour
Rare armor sets. And by rare armor sets, we mean all of the armor sets.
this is literally just a list of armours you guys liked.
It's so funny that anyone that plays dark souls knows of the rarity of the armor and they're not really
If only the black knight had a awesome looking black cape.He would look realy badass.
The middle armor set in your thumbnail was gifted to me by my friend, sadly it's I accidentally started a new game. Don't atck the knight sitting in the firelink shrine!
The pyromaniacers apprentice armor set now that's rare I hardly ever see anyone with that seeing as you have to have an npc survived a hole boss fight and then magical know to go to a random area of the game that you don't need to go back to. Dont surprise me that hardly anyone has it lol
You kinda get most of these following boss fights so you really can't call them rare... Wolfs set and Havel's set are a bit tricky to find though.
+Dennis Not really since you can summon 3 other people to down those bosses for you...
