As you progress, upgrading your gear and gathering trinkets to build a stronger loadout will become necessary to survive the backyard’s deadliest creatures. This guide will walk you through the top ten armor sets in Grounded 2 along with an explanation on how to acquire them!

The Best Armors in Grounded 2 

Here are ten of the best armor sets you can find in Grounded 2, listed in no specific order:

Ladybug Armor Set

Type: Fighter | Tier: II

Perk: Bargain Block (I–III)

Materials Required:

  • 1x Ladybug Head
  • 11x Ladybug Parts
  • 11x Blueberry Leather
  • 6x Flower Petals

Perfect for melee builds, the Ladybug Armor reduces stamina usage when blocking through its Bargain Block perk. Whether using a shield or weapon to defend, stamina drains fast—limiting your ability to counter. This set eases that burden, letting you stay in the fight longer and maintain offensive pressure.

Sizzling Armor (Head Piece)

Type: Mage | Tier: II

Perks: Mage Armor, Sizzle Reduction

Set Bonus: Whizzy Wizard

Materials Required:

  • 3x Bombardier Parts
  • 1x Boiling Gland
  • 2x Lingonberry Leather

The Sizzling Set is your go-to starter gear for mage builds. Its Mage Armor perk improves stamina efficiency with staff attacks, allowing for longer spellcasting and sustained damage during extended fights.

What makes it even more valuable is its Sizzle Reduction mod, which proves especially effective against mid-game bosses known for sizzle-based attacks. With a strong mix of offense and elemental defense, this headgear boosts your DPS while helping you stay cool under pressure.

Bee Armor Set

Type: Ranger | Tier: II

Perk: More Better Draw (I–III)

Materials Needed:

  • 13x Bee Fuzz
  • 1x Bee Stinger
  • 10x Blueberry Leather
  • 7x Silk Rope

As adorable as bumblebees are, hunting them pays off when you’re aiming for a top-tier archer build. The Bee Armor is tailored for ranged combat, enhancing weak spot damage like most Ranger gear, while its More Better Draw perk boosts the power of charged shots—making it perfect for players who rely on precision and power from a distance.

Snail Shell Armor Set

Type: Fighter | Tier: III

Perk: Block Stun (I–III)

Materials Needed:

  • 12x Garden Snail Fragments
  • 2x Garden Snail Eyestalks
  • 9x Lingonberry Leather
  • 2x Silk Rope
  • 5x Acid Glands

An upgraded take on the Ladybug set, the Snail Shell Armor boosts overall stats and introduces Block Stun, which builds stun on enemies with each successful block. Ideal for any melee setup, it excels in stun-focused builds using the Red Ant Club, Smasher mutation, and Astonishing Acid trinket.

However, crafting it requires analyzing a Garden Snail Fragment—found in a chest at the Ranger Outpost in the Statue Gardens or harvested with the Omni-Hammer III.

Red Ant Armor Set

Type: Rogue | Tier: I

Perks: Rogue Armor, Attack Stamina: Ant

Set Pieces:

  • Red Ant Helmet
  • Red Ant Arm Guards
  • Red Ant Knee Guards

The Red Ant Armor is a solid early-game choice, especially since Red Ants are easy to find around starting areas. It’s simple to craft and offers helpful perks for agile, melee-focused playstyles. Rogue Armor increases crit chance on the final hit of a 3-hit combo, while Attack Stamina: Ant lowers the stamina cost when using weapons made from Red Ant parts. For best results, pair the armor with Red Ant-crafted weapons to fully benefit from its stamina-reducing mod.

Acorn Armor Set

Type: Fighter | Tier: I

Perks: Fighter Armor, Max Health

Set Pieces:

  • Acorn Face Mask
  • Acorn Plate
  • Acorn Greaves

If you’re leaning toward a tanky melee build early on, the Acorn Armor is a great place to start. Crafted from easy-to-find materials like Acorns, Clover Leaves, and Crude Rope, this set provides solid defense and valuable combat perks. Fighter Armor increases threat generation with melee attacks, making it ideal for drawing enemy attention, while the Max Health mod boosts your survivability—perfect for frontline combat roles.

Butterfly Armor Set

Type: Mage | Tier: II

Perks: Parrier Barrier I, Frosty Focus I–II

Materials Required:

  • 8x Blue Butterfly Scales
  • 9x Blue Butterfly Chunks
  • 2x Blue Butterfly Wings
  • 5x Mint Shards
  • 9x Blueberry Leather
  • 3x Silk Rope

Ideal for frost-based magic users, the Butterfly Armor enhances staff stamina efficiency and grants Parrier Barrier, which gives a one-hit magic shield after a successful block. This shield then activates Frosty Focus, boosting your fresh (ice) damage. Combine it with the Glacial Sting staff for a powerful ice mage setup.

Marksman’s Cap

Type: Ranger | Tier: II

Perk: Bow Attack

Crafting Requirements:

  • 5x Crow Feather Pieces
  • 5x Blueberry Leather
  • 5x Silk Rope

The Marksman’s Cap is a must-have for any archer. While it shares the Bee Armor’s bonus to weak spot damage, it trades the charged shot perk for a direct increase to overall bow damage. Even on its own, this headpiece is highly effective and pairs well with other Ranger gear, especially the Bee set, making it a smart addition to any ranged loadout.

Grub Armor Set

Type: Ranger | Tier: I

Perks: Ranger Armor, Quickcharge

Set Pieces:

  • Grub Goggles
  • Grub Vest
  • Grub Leggings

Key Materials: Dry Grass Chunks, Grub Parts

An excellent early-game option for ranger builds, the Grub Armor is easy to craft using common materials like Dry Grass and Grub drops (look for moving dirt patches to find them). The set boosts weak spot damage with the Ranger Armor perk and improves stamina efficiency when blocking through Quickcharge, making it ideal for ranged combat with fast, effective charged attacks.

Acorn Armor Set

Type: Fighter | Tier: I

Perks: Fighter Armor, Max Health

Set Pieces:

  • Acorn Face Mask
  • Acorn Plate
  • Acorn Greaves

If you’re leaning toward a tanky melee build early on, the Acorn Armor is a great place to start. Crafted from easy-to-find materials like Acorns, Clover Leaves, and Crude Rope, this set provides solid defense and valuable combat perks. Fighter Armor increases threat generation with melee attacks, making it ideal for drawing enemy attention, while the Max Health mod boosts your survivability, perfect for frontline combat roles.

Wolf Hood (Armor)

Type: Rogue | Tier: III

Perks: Rogue Armor, Venomous Dasher

Set Bonus: Deadly Venom

Materials Required:

  • 2x Wolf Spider Fang
  • 3x Spider Venom
  • 2x Blueberry Leather

The Wolf Hood is a top-tier choice for rogue builds focused on burst damage. Its Venomous Dasher mod enhances charged dash attacks with venom, stacking deadly damage on enemies. Combined with Rogue Armor, which boosts crit potential, it allows for high-impact ambushes that often finish fights before retaliation.

Crafted from fierce Wolf Spider parts, this headgear not only hits hard but looks the part. It’s a powerful upgrade for any rogue looking to deal swift, poisonous strikes in rapid succession.
