*** The Barbarian Armor set - looks pretty decent, giving Link the [[Skeleton in the Coat Closet]] look, gives a bonus to Attack and decreases the Stamina used with charged attacks, plus a baseline Defense of 3 with a maximum of 21 when fully upgraded.. Only downside is, these bonuses do not stack with food power-ups, but a pretty decent set overall.

*** The Fierce Deity set is pretty much identical to the Barbarian set as far as gameplay goes, and is even more aesthetically pleasing, making Link look like a cross between his classic self and a ghost samurai warrior.

The Depths Set. Of all the Evil is Cool armor sets, this one is the coolest, making Link look like some sort of evil cultist. This armor only gives mediocre defense, but the benefit is, it gives you some Gloom resistance, giving Link extra Heart Containers (1 to 3, depending on the upgrade level) that absorb the Gloom Damage before any of his actual Hearts do. As anyone who has spent any time exploring the Depths knows, this is a huge benefit.

The Mystic Set is again, incredibly cool looking, giving Link a mane of white hair and an outfit that makes him look like a Dragonball Z hero. Its efficiency depends on where you are in the game, and with the right preparation, can be game-breaking. It has no offensive boost, but the benefit is, instead of losing Hearts from battle damage, you lose Rupees instead. So if you’ve accumulated several thousand Rupees from constant hunter-gathering activities or used duplication glitches (hey, this Troper ain’t judging here) Link is practically invincible.

*** The Radiant Set is another game-breaking armor set. Advertised as a set that increases Link's stealth and movement speed at night, plus prevents Stal enemies from attacking Link, its true power lies in enhancing the attack power of weapons made of bone. Fuse Gibdo parts to a Lionel bow and a Molduga Jaw to a Gerudo Scimitar, and the damage Link does is ridiculously high. It is far easier to obtain than most high tier armors, purchasable in one armor store, and unlike the other Evil is Cool sets, it can be fully upgraded, up to a stat of 20. While this is just average, it’s fully five times better than the Evil Spirit set will ever be.

* The Glide Set Zigzags this Trope. One of the coolest armor sets in the game, it is leather armor with a bird-like theme and mask. It can be obtained very early in the game by completing some relatively simple Mini Game, and is quite valuable early in the game. Its base effect, in a nutshell, makes Link more maneuverable in mid-air while skydiving. The part that is not so practical is the full-set bonus; it keeps Link from taking any damage at all from falling. That is indeed pretty awesome, but… Why would you do that? It’s hard to accidentally die from falling in this game, because even if the player hits the Jump command right before impact, Link will land safely. Still, it can be invaluable, especially later in the game. Its offense and defense are bad, but you really won’t be fighting much with this set anyway unless you’re really into making unusual Let’s Play videos.

* The Zonaite armor is one of the toughest sets to find, the Shrines where they are located being the hardest to get to and arguably the hardest to solve, although theoretically, you can get the whole set after only completing the Wind and Water Temples. Once you get it, however, the end result makes Link look like an Aztec high priest with Magitech Bling of War. The max defense bonus is 28 (tying the Soldier set and Ancient Hero set for best defense in the game) and has the added effect of doubling the battery power of Zonaite devices, and given how Ultrahand is the most useful mechanic in this game, it is likely the most practical armor in the game and one of the most awesome.
