Who Should Use Blacksmith Armor Sets (Heavy Armor)
Blacksmith has armor sets primarily dedicated to warriors, barbarians, and tanks. Those are classes and skill trees enshrouded that will prefer and highly benefit from the heavy armors he offers. Those playstyles engage in close melee combat, so extra physical and magic protection that heavy armor from Blacksmith provides is essential. In summary, if you use melee weapons, use primarily red skill trees, or struggle with survival, you should consider one of the blacksmith-crafted armor sets in Enshrouded.
However, Battlemage, which is considered a “mage class,” and skills and class are on the blue side of the skill tree, will also typically wear heavy armor made by blacksmiths. Battlemage is a unique type of class with both defensive and offensive capabilities. They use heavy armor and shields for extra protection and pair them with healing skills or staff charges. Then, when attacked, swap to offensive weapons, for example, a hand or a staff.
Remember: If you struggle with survival, you can use higher protection armor, healing skills, and healing staff charges.
Fur Armor Set
Fur armor is the first and basic armor you will gain access to as soon as you save the blacksmith from their ancient vault. It’s level 5 armor that provides no significant bonuses but fundamental physical and magic protection. It’s a decent choice before you unlock more powerful options.

Rising Fighter Armor Set
The Rising Fighter Armor Set in Enshrouded is a Level 8 armor you can craft in Blacksmith’s inventory. It’s very basic armor that is worth upgrading from fur armor because it provides a few crucial bonuses: additional health and health regeneration.

Mercenary Armor Set
Similarly, Mercenary armor is also a level 18 armor set from Blacksmith in Enshrouded, but it balances the damage bonuses and high survivability. It’s a fantastic choice if you struggle with survival or want something with all bonuses to health, stamina, and critical damage.

Rogue Armor Set
At the 23 level, you will unlock the recipe from the Rogue armor set. A blacksmith crafts it, but its bonuses are fantastic for assassins who want to be defensive or players who like to engage in combat with one-handed melee weapons. With additional stamina regeneration, you will successfully hold enemies with a shield if in defense and have plenty of damage and endurance to attack.

Warden Armor Set

Soldier Armor Set
The final craftable armor set is Soldier with level 23. Its design resembles a Warden armor set but will provide slight bonuses to melee damage, making it a good choice for two-handed or one-handed warriors. It’s one of the best sets if you like to charge into combat, play aggressively, and be in the middle of the battlefield.
