Among all the options, we feel that the Guardian Ebony and Guardian Arkveld are the best armors in Monster Hunter Wilds. These are our picks for the Low Rank segment of the game, though you do need to spend several hours just to reach this part of the campaign. Our guide discusses everything you need to know about how to acquire these gear pieces.

Monster Hunter Wilds best armor guide - Guardian Ebony and Guardian Arkveld set

Both the Guardian Ebony and Guardian Arkveld armor sets can be yours fairly late into the campaign (roughly after a dozen hours or so of playing). Prior to this part, we suggest doing the following:

• Practicing a bit in the Training Area so you can determine the best weapons for your playstyle.
• Crafting early-game items that should help you for the first few hunts.

Eventually, you should reach the Ruins of Wyveria, where you'll get to battle Guardian-type monsters. The key factor that differentiates these beasts from their normal counterparts is that they can channel energy to heal/close their wounds. This means you need to be quick in destroying their wounds so you can cause as much damage and grab as many materials as possible.
