All the Armor Sets in Grounded (So Far)

Armor Up!

In Grounded it is a good idea to know which armor to use, and when. There are times where you’ll need something that will let you haul more items, or move a lot faster when you run! Each piece of armor and clothing has a benefit. There are some individual items, but most are currently armor sets. Here is a breakdown of everything we know so far of what’s currently available in the game. The article is excluding creative mode items and focusing entirely on what can be made in the game. This article will be updated periodically when new items are released and discovered. For now, you can check out what’s below and our Grounded survival tips & tricks. You can also head to our homepage at lordsofgaming.net for more guides and how-to articles on Grounded such as how to get a level two hatchet!

A key note about the armor sets, the buffs provided with them work on an individual basis and can stack. For example, the Ant Armor set helps with hauling materials. Without the armor, you can only haul 5 grass or weed stems. With one piece of Ant Armor on, you can carry 6 instead. With all 3 armor pieces on, you can carry a total of 8 grass or weed stems!

Basic crafting materials to keep an eye out for in the backyard!

Tier One Armor & Clothing

Once you’ve spent some time in Grounded, it will be easy to acquire many of these items. Most you can actually acquire very early on in the game. Knowing which ones to use will be extremely helpful in your survival and experience. You need to make sure that you have a workbench as well to craft these items. They cannot be crafted on the spot out in the backyard.
