The Warlord Armour is an armour in Metin2 that can be worn by all five classes. The key point: The values are 100% identical for Warriors, Ninjas, Shamans, Suras and Lycanthropes. Only the name and visual appearance of the armour vary depending on the class. So if you want to know whether Warlord Armour is good for your class, you can refer to the general armour values – they apply universally.

Cross-Class Armour Values in Metin2
An important core principle in Metin2: All armours of one tier have identical base values for all classes. This also applies to Warlord Armour. Whether you play as a Warrior, Ninja, Shaman, Sura or Lycanthrope – you receive the same protection values. The difference lies solely in the appearance and the class-specific name of the armour.
This makes comparing armours across classes simpler: you only need to know the armour type and its tier, not the class you plan to play.
| Class | Armour Name | Values compared to other classes |
|---|---|---|
| Warrior | Warlord Armour (Warrior) | Identical |
| Ninja | Warlord Armour (Ninja) | Identical |
| Shaman | Warlord Armour (Shaman) | Identical |
| Sura | Warlord Armour (Sura) | Identical |
| Lycanthrope | Warlord Armour (Lycanthrope) | Identical |
Armour System in Metin2: Basics
The armour system in Metin2 is organised by class. The wiki has separate pages for:
- Warrior/Armours
- Ninja/Armours
- Shaman/Armours
- Sura/Armours
- Lycanthrope/Armours
Despite this class-based organisation in the wiki, the actual item values are identical. This means: If, for example, you're looking for armour at a certain tier for your Warrior, the same base values apply as for the same armour type on your Ninja.
Where do you get Warlord Armour?
Armours in Metin2 can be obtained in several ways. The Armour Trader (also called Armor Shop Dealer) is one of the possible sources for armours in the game. In addition, Armour Designs exist in Metin2, which can be used for crafting or upgrading armours – helmet variants are also available as separate armour designs.
Specifically, this means for you:
- Search specifically for the Armour Trader in the towns on your server.
- Look out for Armour Designs that enable crafting or improving armours.
- Check the Player Marketplace if you need Warlord Armour quickly.
Upgrading and Improving Armour
Like all armours in Metin2, Warlord Armour can be improved through the in-game upgrade system. Armour Designs (also available for helmets) play a role in this. When upgrading armours in general:
- Higher upgrade tiers increase the protection values of the armour.
- Armour Designs may be required for certain upgrade paths.
- A failed upgrade can damage or destroy the armour – plan your resources accordingly.
Since the base values are the same for all classes, upgrading Warlord Armour is equally worthwhile for every class.
Tips on Armour Selection for Beginners
If you're new to Metin2 and don't know which armour to choose, follow these basic rules:
- Class doesn't matter for the values: Focus on the armour tier, not the class. Warlord Armour at +9 is just as strong for a Warrior as it is for a Shaman at +9.
- Check traders first: Armour traders in towns often offer solid basic armours without much effort.
- Collect Armour Designs: Armour Designs enable improvements and should not be sold lightly.
- Prepare upgrade resources: Before you start upgrading, make sure you have enough improvement materials.
