Gundyr's Set is an heavy armor set in Dark Souls III.

In-Game Description

Ancient chest piece of a set of cast iron armor, belonging to Champion Gundyr.
Gundyr, or the Belated Champion, was bested by an unknown warrior. He then became sheath to a coiled sword in the hopes that someday, the first flame would be linked once more.

Availability[]

Purchased from the Shrine Handmaid for a total of 36,000 souls after defeating Champion Gundyr.

Characteristics[]

Although it has a high weight requirement, Gundyr's Set has strong well-balanced defenses to back it up.

Although its physical defenses are sub-optimal for its weight, it is notable that even its weakness against Strike damage is not far out of line from its other resistances, and is still higher than that found on most other plate metal sets. It also has extreme resistance to Slash damage, which is backed up by its high resistance to Bleed buildup, making it quite resistant against attacks from Curved Swords and Katanas. Its elemental defenses are also very sound across the board, and here it also lacks a severe weakness to Lightning damage. It is equally resistant to all non-Bleed status effects.

Gundyr's Set also provides high Poise to back up its weight, and when wielding a heavy weapon allows the player to easily trade with virtually any other weapon, even against combos from ultra weapons. The total amount of Poise provided by Gundyr's Set is, in fact, the third-highest amount total provided by an entire set, beaten only by Havel's Set and Smough's Set.
