God of War Ragnarok offers players who have bought their Deluxe version some special perks and prizes and one of these is the Darkdale Armor set. If you are wondering if this Deluxe package exclusive armor set is worth the expenditure- then fear not as you’ve come to the right place. Here we will discuss the special features and abilities of the Darkdale Armor set and if it’s worth the hype and money at the end of the day.
Darkdale Armor Set in God of War Ragnarok
The Darkdale armor set is even better than the pre-order exclusive Risen Snow armor set and we’ll tell you why soon. This set not only increases your DPS like the Risen Snow set but also adds to your survivability by giving you heals.
Set Effects:
Below are the set effects of this armor. We recommend using the whole set for maximum viability as all its abilities synergise perfectly.
Chest Piece: ENRAGED SLAYER
Killing an enemy while in Spartan Rage restores some Rage and Health.
Spartan Rage already grants bonus damage and restores health but having a chest piece that also does the same will be very powerful indeed. You get almost double the heals per kill and you can also stay in Spartan Rage mode longer the more you kill enemies.
Wrist & Waist Pieces: RAGING AFFLICTION II
Increases the rate at which Rage is gained when attacking Status-Afflicted enemies and using Runic Attacks.
This is a total of 40% Rage gain increase when using both the wrist and waist pieces. Equipping these alongside the chest piece means that you can frequently trigger the Spartan Rage mode with only a low cooldown or downtime. This also means more overall damage and healing.
There are many skills and moves in the game that synergise well with this armor set and the more you play and level up the more such combos and chains you will unlock. The Darkdale armor certainly puts players ahead of the curve and even in the long run it is a powerful armor so we definitely think it’s worth it.
