Dragon’s Dogma 2may have limited the amount of armor players can find during their adventure in thisaction RPG, but that doesn’t stop players from finding the right armor to protect them against certain things. One of the main stats that players can find resistance in is slash damage.
This is a type of physical damage inDragon’s Dogma 2that melee vocations will likely want high defense in. With this in mind, these armors are by far the best for an Arisen, and their pawns, who are looking for a high amount of slash resistance above all else, and where players can find these armors too.

Strong Against Slash But Weak To Deliberations

6Totemic Shroud
Tricksters Need Defense To Stay Standing
Although many players may deem the Trickster vocation to be one of the least enjoyed out of the available vocations inDragon’s Dogma 2, that doesn’t mean the vocation doesn’t have any decent armors to defend against slashing damage.
TheTotemic Shroud, which is one of many armors players can purchase during the endgame, is one of the best for players who are enjoying the Trickster vocation to use. Tricksters need to have high defense while they attempt to avoid danger and having this extra slash resistance is vital to achieve this.
