Final Fantasy IV armor

Below is listed the armor in the 2D versions of Final Fantasy IV and its remakes. Every character can equip up to four different armor parts at the same time: body protection, shield, arms protection and head protection.

Note: The defense and evasion camps show how much of these stats is added or subtracted to the character's main stat. Some armor may reduce the stats, while some may not add anything at all. An unequipped character has 30% base evasion—s/he is granted 10% evasion per empty head, body, or arm slot. The max rate of evasion or magic evasion is 99%.
