Light Gambeson
Emma starts in it. Defense 17 is the lowest in the set, but five Spirit Stone slots is more than eight of the thirteen armors that come after it, and Low enemy awareness is better than all but two.

When to use it
The record that shows the armor system is not a ladder. On raw defense this is last, and on slots and stealth it beats most of what replaces it — so swapping into the first strongbox armor you find can be a downgrade in two of the three axes. Check all three before you change.

- Fextralife wiki — Armor — Competitor claim, read 2026-08-06. Evidence that Fextralife publishes fourteen armors with three numbers each — Defense, Spirit Stone slots and an Enemy Awareness grade — plus flavour text and a strongbox location. The three axes are what make the table interesting: defense rises monotonically through the set and slots and awareness do not, so several later pieces are worse than earlier ones on two of three. Nobody has verified a single figure, and Game8's armor page carries no numbers at all.
