Metin2 Warrior Armour

Metin2 Warrior Armour: Level, Sockets, Spirit Stones and Enhancement

Warrior armour is class-specific equipment for Warriors in Metin2. It increases your defence value, can have sockets for spirit stones and can be further improved through enhancements.

Summary: Warriors wear heavy armour that must match the class and required level. In addition to the DEF value, sockets, spirit stones, bonuses, movement speed and enhancement level all matter. Early armour serves as an entry point, whilst higher-tier armour offers stronger values, more customisation options and possible upgrades.

What is Warrior Armour?

Warrior armour is armour that belongs to the Warrior class. It is bound to specific level requirements and forms the defensive foundation for melee combat.

A piece of Warrior armour can have several relevant properties:

• required level
• DEF value
• movement speed
• sockets
• spirit stones
• additional bonuses
• enhancement level
• possible upgrade path

This means that armour differs not just by name, but also by its values and customisation options.

Warrior Armour by Progression

Warrior armour is spread across various level ranges. With higher requirements, stronger values, additional customisation options and further enhancement steps become relevant.

The Serpent Cloak is the Serpent armour for Warriors. It is among the very high Warrior armour pieces and can be further enhanced.

Sockets in Warrior Armour

Warrior armour can have sockets. Spirit stones can be inserted into these sockets. The number of sockets depends on the level range of the armour.

Sockets are not bonuses. They serve exclusively for inserting spirit stones. Bonuses are additional values that can exist on armour independently of sockets.

Spirit Stones for Warrior Armour

Spirit stones are inserted into empty sockets and grant the armour additional values.

If inserting a spirit stone fails, stone shards are created. These block the socket and are not an active improvement.

Removing Stone Shards

Stone shards are created by failed attempts at inserting spirit stones. They can be removed so that the socket becomes usable again.

Options for removal include:

• Blacksmith service
• Blessed Scroll
• Stone Manual from the Item Shop

If you fail with a Magical Stone, stone shards are not removed.

Possible Bonuses on Warrior Armour

Armour can have additional bonuses. These bonuses work independently of sockets and spirit stones.

Additional 6th and 7th bonuses can enable further effects, including elemental forces, boss damage reduction, additional resistances or fall resistance.

Enhancing Warrior Armour

Warrior armour can be improved through enhancements. With these, certain values increase over enhancement levels depending on the armour. Yang and enhancement materials may be required for enhancements.

Some armour can also serve as a basis for higher-tier armour. An existing piece of armour is combined with materials and Yang to create a new piece of armour.

Several points are important when enhancing:

• Some processes improve an existing piece of armour.
• Some processes create a new piece of armour.
• Bonuses and spirit stones may be retained or lost depending on the process.
• Success rates can be regulated differently depending on the system.

Before a major enhancement, you should check which armour is being used, what materials are needed and what happens to existing bonuses or spirit stones.

What Should You Pay Attention to with Warrior Armour?

With Warrior armour, not just the raw defence value matters. What counts is the interplay between level, sockets, spirit stones, bonuses and enhancement.

Class and Level

The armour must be suitable for Warriors and meet the required level.

Defence Value

The DEF value shows how much the armour contributes to defence.

Movement Speed

Some armour can affect movement speed. This value should be considered when making a selection.

Sockets

Sockets allow the use of spirit stones. Higher-tier armour can have up to three sockets.

Spirit Stones

Spirit stones supplement Warrior armour with additional values such as HP, MP, defence, movement speed or evasion effects.

Bonuses

Bonuses can make armour more versatile. These include defensive values, resistances, HP, MP, attack value and spell speed.

Enhancement

The enhancement level determines how far an armour piece has already been improved. With higher-tier armour, enhancements and possible upgrades can play a greater role.
