Horizon Forbidden West armour: All the outfits and how to get best armour
Aloy is serving up looks with her Horizon Forbidden West armour collection.
Now that Horizon Forbidden West has arrived, fashion-forward fans will be darting around its sizeable open world in a bid to collect all of the Horizon Forbidden West armour outfits.
And since Aloy has lost all her gear from the first game, you'll have to start that collection all over again! You don't get to bring your Horizon Forbidden West armour outfits with you, or your old weapons, but many of those fan favourites do pop up again later in the game.
By our count, there are 39 outfits/armours to collect in Horizon Forbidden West, and they are divided up into the categories Uncommon, Rare, Very Rare and Legendary. Each armour also matches up with a section on your skill tree, which is split into the segments Warrior, Trapper, Hunter, Survivor, Infiltrator and Machine Master.
It's also worth noting that every set of Horizon Forbidden West armour can be upgraded at any of the game's workbenches, so don't forget to visit those handy tables regularly if you want to have as much protection as possible.
What's the best armour in Horizon Forbidden West? We'd say that the Tenakth Reaver is one of the most eye-catching options on offer, but you could argue that the Oseram Artificer (or any of the powerful Legendary outfits) would serve you best in battle scenarios. It depends what you're looking for, of course.
