The Saint’s Armor is one of the best armor sets you can use in Sword Art Online: Echoes of Aincrad. You can craft this armor piece as soon as you arrive on the second floor. This armor set is great due to its health regeneration passive, combined with how early you can get it. The fact that its materials are easy to get is the cherry on top, which makes this armor a must-use for beginners. Finally, the look of the armor is not bad at all, so you don’t have to look out of place while getting a useful combat upgrade.
Where To Get Saint’s Armor Blueprint Location in Sword Art Online: Echoes of Aincrad
You first have to grab the blueprint during the Cliffside Marvel mission, and then craft the armor using the required materials afterwards. The Saint’s Armor Blueprint can be found quite easily on the second floor.
From the Labyrinth, head to the location seen on the map marker above. There will be a glowing chest that is easily spotted at this marker. Open it, and you can get the Saint’s Armor Blueprint. Now, all that is left is to head to any Smithy and craft this armor.
How To Craft Saint’s Armor in Sword Art Online: Echoes of Aincrad
You will need 1,500 Col (the main currency of the game), alongside the following materials:
- 1x Selenite Ingot

The Selenite Ingot is the most difficult item to get from the above-listed materials, but you have a chance of getting it by defeating the Kobold Champion and Little Chemchin.
Saint’s Armor Stats and Effects
- Armor DEF: 25
- Unique MOD: Auto-Recovery
Restores a portion of damage taken over time. Restoration amount is increased when HP is below a set percentage.
This auto-recovery effect makes this armor quite sought after, as it can help reduce the need for Healing Crystals by continuously healing you. The fact that the healing speed increases once your health is close to zero is an additional benefit that can surely be useful.
Most of the other armor you will have at this point will have an Armor DEF value of 15, so the sharp increase will be noticeable during combat. Moreover, its health regeneration is also not limited to a certain health limit, like the Thirteen Ordeals armor set is, which makes this effect much better.
Another good armor set that you can get quite early on is the Earthly Jacket, which comes with a nice damage reduction MOD and a decent Armor DEF stat of its own.
