[Top 5] FF14 Endwalker Best Armor (And How To Get Them)!

Updated:

27 Feb 2022

Finished Endwalker already? Then you might want to gear up for raids!

After completing Endwalker, the next thing on the list are Raids, but to raid, you will need to reach a certain iLevel to participate! If you are already playing Final Fantasy XIV from the previous expansions, you may already know how to get these items. But regardless, here we go! I’m going to tell you the top 5 highest iLevel at the moment and where to get them.

5. Endwalker Artifact set (iLevel 560)

All Class/Job Gears preview.

For the Artifact, as always, you can get it for free! After completing the level 89 Main Scenario Quest “A Bold Decision,” you can get your Artifact gears are free from a Vendor in Old Sharlayan. The downside for the equipment is it was for each specific job, so you will need a lot of equipment inventory space if you plan to get all of them. Other than that, I see no reason people would not take the gears.

4. Moonward set (iLevel 570)

All Moonward set preview.

These are the set you trade with the Allagan Tomestone of Aphorism. You can exchange them in Radz-at-Han with the Moonward gears. You can get this Tomestone by participating in daily Level 90/Expert Roulettes, level 90 dungeons, trials, or raids. Moonward set will also be rewarded for completing lines of Wondrous Tails or running Heaven-on-High. However, they will not drop if your job is not at level 90. This Tomestone–like others–is capped at 2000.

3. Trials’ or Raid Set/Classical set(iLevel 580)

Classical Set and Raid Gear. The Trials are Accessories and Weapon.

There are three ways to reach iLevel 580, Buyingway, Craftingway or Trialway. The Trials weapon/accessories can be attained from drops in the extreme version of Endwalker’s trial or by trading Totems acquired from the respective trials to avoid any spoilers. For the armors, you can collect them by doing the normal raid of Endwalker. Since this is one of the highest trials and raids, you can’t farm it solo; I repeat, you cannot farm it solo! All the trading you need to do, do it in Radz-at-Han. If you are too lazy to get it from the trials/raids because luck is never on your side like me, you can craft Classical Set yourself or buy them from the market boards. You will need this set to achieve the current highest iLevel items.

2. Radiant’s set (iLevel 590)

Radiant's set preview.

Radiant’s sets are like Moonward set, which you can trade with Allagan Tomestone of Astronomy. You can farm Allagan Tomestones of Astronomy by completing Level 90/Expert Roulettes, level 90 dungeons, trials, or raids, and receive rewards for completing lines of Wondrous Tails. For the weapons, however, you will need an extra item called “Discal Tomestone” which you can get from the latest savage raid (Asphodelos: The Second Circle [Savage]), a guaranteed drop on each clear.

1. Augmented Radiant’s set (iLevel 600)

Augmented Radiant's set preview.

To augment your Radiant’s set, you will need the corresponding Radiant weapon/armor/accessory and one Radiant Roborant/Twine/Coating for each augmentation. As you have probably already guessed, these Radiant items are dropped from the Savage raid (Second and Third Circle).

All the items are well balanced in Final Fantasy XIV. Due to the iLevel nature, there are hardly any differences in points distribution with equipment of the same iLevel, which is usually compensated with correct materia and food to achieve the most optimal raiding. The current highest iLevel is 605, only available for weapons. The latest raid, Asphodelos (Savage), will drop you these weapons, and the armors’ set is worth 600 iLevel. If you already set with the Radiant’s set, it is time to clear the savage raid so you can get the highest Raid weapon. For that, I bid you good luck!
