Guardian armour set locations

Thought it might be a good idea to upload a location guide for the new guardian armour set in the Artorias DLC. I have listed each piece of the set below with images (sorry again for the quality!). I have also put them in a specific order which is the quickest way to collect them from entering the Royal Wood via the Sanctuary Garden bonfire. I have also inserted a picture of the entire set at the bottom of this post to provide an overview of the weight and stats. 

Gauntlets: 

Enter the Royal Wood and stick to the right-hand path. Defeat the trees which attack you and continue hugging the right-hand wall until you see a small broken tower on your left (which later becomes a shortcut near the merchant). Inside the tower, follow the stair case up to the second floor and you will find the gauntlets on a corpse. 



Boots: 

Come back out of the tower and head right, to the other end of the Royal Wood opening area. Here you will find a glade with around 5 tree enemies and a stone knight. It's quite easy to pick the trees off with sorcery from a distance as you can lock onto them before they notice you. Once you have defeated all the enemies in the area head into the corner behind where the stone knight was standing and you will find a corpse with the guardian boots. 



Helm: 

Inside the glade you will be able to see a small stone bridge in the opposite direction of where you entered. Cross this, being careful of the stone knight which sometimes drops down from above. Around the corner (in case you haven't already been here before) you will find a crystal lizard who will run away from you and towards a large hole, be careful not to fall down! Continue around the large holes in the floor sticking to the left-hand side and you will encounter a couple of tree enemies again. Defeat these and you will reach an area with some more trees snipping away. They won't notice or attack you until you either attack them, or loot the nearby corpse. 
Turn around once you reach this area and you will see a small hill leading up to two more tree enemies. Kill them and drop down into the area below. Go around the large hole in the ground and you will see a small hill with a jump leading up to a glowing corpse. Make you sure you are light enough to effectively jump the gap by removing some armour, and then collect the helm from the corpse! 



4. Chest:

Turn around from where you collected the helm, jump back across the gap and continue heading straight in that direction. You will shortly encounter a few tree enemies and a couple of stone knights. Be careful not to aggro them all at once, instead picking them off one at a time. Continue heading in the direction of the stone knights and take them both out, again being careful to only get their attention one at a time. You will nor reach a cliff edge, overlooking the small stone bridge you crossed earlier. The chest piece of located on a corpse overhanging this cliff. 




Finally, I have put an image below of the entire armour set showing their weight and stats. As you can see this set is rather heavy but does offer very high physical and magical protection, and also has an extremely high durability limit. Note: it cannot be upgraded at a bonfire or a blacksmith.

  1. It's very rare to read such fulfilled articles about video games. I am really surprised and grateful for it! I would be honoured if you were as interested in my article as I am at yours. Those you can see in my personal blog http://shygamergirl.com/girl-versus-dark-souls-3.
