There are many different ways to build Aiden up to your playstyle in Dying Light 2. This list provides a detailed breakdown of some of the best armor pieces you can use for your build. There are four different classes of gear in Dying Light: brawler, tank, medic, and ranger. Our breakdown will help you get the best gear you can per class. You can get these armor sets from looting storage containers, stores, or farming biter hordes. Most players will stick to an armor set from a single class, but if you mix these gear items, you will be more balanced for every situation Dying Light 2 can throw. That said, here is the best piece of armor for every class.

Best armor for Brawler in Dying Light 2

Paratrooper Boots (Artifact Sneakers)

The Brawler gear is not very sought after by regular players, as it does not increase stats in the later stages of the game that can be too helpful. The Brawler class can help with the stats for one-handed weapons if you are looking for a fast-paced fight, especially with a slow weapon. This gear will also add stats to your damage resistance across multiple enemy types, which is useful when ambushed by both.

Stats

  • Damage Resistance (Human Enemies)—+8%
  • Damage Resistance (Infected)—+5.7%
  • Stamina Cost (Melee Weapons)— -9.9%
  • Stamina Regeneration—+10.5%
  • Damage (1 Handed Weapons)—+9.9%

Surgeon Apron (Artifact Chestpiece)
