Metin2 Best-in-Slot Level 105: Armour Guide

From Level 105 onwards, you unlock the most powerful class-specific armours in Metin2. For each of the five classes – Warrior, Ninja, Shaman, Sura and Lycan – there are exactly two level 105 armour variants: one for PvM (player versus monster) and one for PvP (player versus player). Choosing the right armour is the most important single equipment decision in the entire endgame.

What are the level 105 armours?

The level 105 armours represent the current strongest armour class in Metin2. They are class-specific in name and appearance – but their base values are identical for all classes. This means: a Warrior with their level 105 PvM armour has exactly the same base values as a Ninja with their level 105 PvM armour. The differences lie solely in name and appearance.

Level requirements vary depending on the variant:

• Level 105 PvM armours: Level requirement 105 to 120
• Level 105 PvP armours: Level requirement 105 to 115

Both variants are equippable from level 105 – the difference in the upper level cap has little impact in active gameplay, since all players can acquire the item well before level 115.

PvM vs. PvP: The two armour paths

The defining feature of level 105 armours are their two different standard bonuses. Depending on your focus, you choose one of the two variants:

Which armour is best-in-slot for you?

The question of what the "best" item is in Metin2 greatly depends on your playstyle. Here's a direct assessment:

Level 105 PvM armour: Best-in-slot for farmers and dungeon players

The "Strong against monsters" bonus increases your damage directly against all normal monsters and bosses. Combined with the chance to restore HP, this armour makes you significantly more efficient and survivable when farming. Anyone who spends most of their playtime farming, fighting bosses or running dungeons should go with the PvM variant.

Concrete use cases:

• Farming in high-level areas
• Boss runs (e.g. Nemere, Razador)
• Dungeon group content
• Solo progression in endgame

Level 105 PvP armour: Best-in-slot for PvP fighters

The PvP armour provides magic resistance and skill resistance – two of the most important defensive values in player-versus-player combat. Magic resistance reduces incoming magic damage, skill resistance reduces damage from skill attacks. For anyone actively participating in battlefields, guild wars or open PvP, this variant is the clear choice.

Concrete use cases:

• Battlefield content
• Guild war and fortress sieges
• 1v1 duels and open PvP
• Classes with magic focus as opponents (Shaman, Sura)

Class overview: Armours for all five classes

As mentioned, the base values of all level 105 armours are identical regardless of class. The following classes each have access to both variants:

The decision between PvM and PvP is therefore purely playstyle-based – no class bias, no hidden differences in base values.

Armour upgrades: How to get more out of your item

A level 105 armour is not static. Metin2 offers various ways to further improve your armour:

• Enhancement stones (+ levels): The armour can be upgraded through crafting to higher plus levels. Each level increases defence values.
• Bonus lines (magic bonus): By adding or re-rolling bonus lines, you can further optimise your armour – such as additional PvM or PvP protection.
• Soul infusion: Additional bonuses through souls, if available in the current game state.

Which upgrades you prioritise again depends on whether you play PvM or PvP. In PvM, damage increases and survival values are relevant; in PvP, resistance bonuses are particularly valuable.

Common mistakes when buying armour

Especially newcomers to endgame make avoidable mistakes when purchasing a level 105 armour. The most common ones:

• Buying the wrong variant: Those who mainly farm need the PvM variant – and vice versa. A PvP armour while farming is a significant efficiency loss.
• Not re-rolling poor bonus lines: A level 105 armour with weak random bonuses is worth less than one with good ones. Invest in re-rolling.
• No plus upgrading: The base armour without plus upgrades falls short of its potential. Start upgrading early.
• No need to check wrong class: Since the values are identical, you only need to pay attention to PvM/PvP – not the previous owner's class.

Conclusion: PvM or PvP – clear decision, no compromise

The level 105 armours are the clear best-in-slot for the armour slot in Metin2. The choice is simple: Those who farm and play dungeons take the PvM variant. Those who are active in PvP take the PvP variant. Since the base values are the same for all classes, there is no class disadvantage – only your playstyle decides. Also make sure your armour is brought to good plus levels and has strong bonus lines to get the maximum out of the item.
