Characteristics

The Black Iron Set is relatively light weight compared to other heavy armor sets, and has correspondingly lower damage resistance, excluding Fire resistance and Poise. When fully upgraded however, its physical defenses are second only to the Giant Set and it provides the highest Flame Defense of any armor set. It also has the second-highest Curse resistance of any heavy set, behind only Havel's Set.
