In Nioh, there are various armor sets that give specific bonuses that synergize with different styles of play. One interesting armor set to obtain is the Shinobi Armor set worn by typical ninja encountered in the game. The set consists of the Shinobi Apparel: Zukin (Head), Joi (Torso), Tekko (Arms) and Hakama (Legs).
How to Get the Shinobi Armor Set
The entire set is given as a reward after completing the Dojo Mission The Way of the Ninja: Novice. It is a very easy mission that pits you against ninjas in the dojo.
Naturally, armor for Shinobi is very light and works well with weapons offering you mobility, such as the Katana, Dual Katana, Kusarigama and a variety of Throwing Weapons.
A better armor set for ninja builds is the Iga Jonin Set, which gives the set bonus Head of the Iga Ninja. Click here to read our guide on how to obtain the armor set.
