Light armors inElden Ringare typicallyreserved for mage buildsor long-range builds. However, there’s nothing stopping a fashion-savvy Tarnished from trying their hand at a particularly good-looking light armor set in theShadow of the ErdtreeDLC.
The Shadow Militiman Set is one of the most edgy and dark outfits in the DLC. It features dark, broody esthetics and has the perfect look for roleplaying as an assassin. It’s fairly easy to acquire and can be farmed from the right enemies.
Shadow Militiaman Armor Set Overview: Pieces & Stats
InElden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree, the Shadow Militiaman armor set is made up of four pieces: the Shadow Militiaman Armor, Shadow Militiaman Gauntlets, Shadow Militiaman Greaves, and Shadow Militiaman Helm. When all four pieces are equipped, the Shadow Militiaman set weight is 16.9.
The Shadow Militiaman Armor set isone of the darker armor sets in the game. It is almost entirely black, with tattered fabric and a hint of a light maroon shade on the main armor piece. It gives the player a certain kind of decrepit assassin-look and looks extremely unique. The glowing eyes peeking from beneath the wrapped cloth helm give it an iconic look. The low weight of the armor combined with the great looks make the Shadow Militiaman Armor set agreat option for a Light load build.

Where To Find The Shadow Militiaman Armor Set Location
Toget the Shadow Militiaman Armor Set inShadow of the Erdtree, you must farm it from the Shadow Militiamen. These enemies can be found in different locations around the map. Specifically, they are found inthe Fog Rift Catacombsand in the Shadow Keep, at least in the early game. The ones found in Shadow Keep are right next to the Main Gate Plaza site of grace, making them the perfect target for farming.
Teleport to theMain Gate Plaza in Shadow Keep. From there, go right to thesoutheast gate. There will be four Shadow Miltiamen standing right outside the gate. Usean area of effect spellor ash of war to kill them and loot their bodies. Return to the site of grace and repeat the process until you get the full set.
If players haven’t opened the gate yet, they should proceed further in the Shadow Keep. When they reach the large clearing, they will come across a path going to the left deeper into the keep that’s guarded by a Fire Knight and a set of stairs that lead down to the right. Follow those stairs down, and you may open the gate to the Main Gate Plaza.
