What are all the Outfits in Horizon Forbidden West? Which Outfit should you use, and where do you get them? In Horizon Forbidden West, there are dozens of Outfits for Aloy that give her unique resistances and perks. As part of our Horizon Forbidden West guide, we're going to show them all to you and explain their strengths and weaknesses. This includes all the outfits in the main game as well as those introduced in Horizon Forbidden West: Burning Shores.

Horizon Forbidden West: All Outfits, Armour, and Best Outfits to Use

Below, we're going to show you every outfit you can find in Horizon Forbidden West. We'll be explaining the strengths and weaknesses of each outfit, giving you a look at their stats and telling you what they're best suited for. We have sorted the below list by rarity and then by name.

These sets of clothes and armour give Aloy various boosts to her resistances, as well as augment her abilities in specific ways when fully upgraded. Upgrades cost Metal Shards and various machine components. To get the right materials, you will need to go out and hunt Machines. When you have the right resources, each outfit can be upgraded several times at a Workbench.

Most outfits in the game come with a headpiece of some kind. To learn how you can hide this headgear, see our guide: Horizon Forbidden West: How Do You Remove Headpieces?

Can You Swap the Appearance of Outfits?

Yes, you can swap the appearance of outfits, or transmog them, in Horizon Forbidden West. If you like the stats of one outfit but prefer the visual style of another, you can mix and match. You can have the stats of one outfit with the aesthetics of a totally separate outfit. To learn more about this, see our guide: Horizon Forbidden West: How to Transmog Outfits and Change Armor Appearance.

Uncommon Outfits

Despite the name, Uncommon Outfits are the lowest level Outfits in Horizon Forbidden West. These Outfits are perfectly suitable for the first few hours in the game.

Uncommon Outfits can be upgraded up to 3 times at Workbenches.

Carja Blazon

Class: Trapper

+2 Trap Limit
Place more traps and tripwires on the field at the same time.
+1 Skilled Salvager
Recover more and higher quality resources when deconstructing traps and tripwires.

Summary: The Carja Blazon outfit is a Trapper class outfit, making it most suited to players who like to lay down traps, such as using a Tripcaster. It allows you to lay down more traps at a time, and it comes with a Weave that lets you set traps more quickly. Quite a specialist armour, then, but will definitely come in handy for Hunters Lodge challenges.

Nora Anointed

Horizon Forbidden West Outfits Armour Guide PS5 PS4 Nora Anointed

Description: Well-worn armor made with repurposed technology from an ancient lab. After losing its power source, it was modified to augment ranged combat.

Class: Hunter

Where to Find It: Unlocked by default.

+2 Concentration Regen
Recover concentration faster.
+1 Potent Medicine
Medicinal Berries provide more healing and heal you faster.

Summary: The Nora Anointed outfit is the armour you start the game with, and as expected, is a good all-rounder. It's perfectly usable in the early hours as you'll run into Bristlebacks, who will use Acid attacks against you, and this outfit has good protection against that. It also gives your ranged attacks an edge, granting Aloy more concentration (slow-motion while aiming) and gaining more health from healing items. Perfect for beginners, then, but it's quickly bettered by other outfits.

Nora Champion

Horizon Forbidden West Outfits Armour Guide PS5 PS4 Nora Champion
Image: Push Square

Description: With a blend of Nora fabric and ancient technology, this armor favors stealth and ranged combat.

Class: Infiltrator

Where to Find It: Rewarded after completing the Side Quest, The Bristlebacks.

+1 Concentration+
Increase your concentration limit, prolonging use.


Summary: The Nora Champion outfit is another solid all-rounder that skews slightly towards a stealthy playstyle. It offers decent protection against melee damage, so it's useful against human opponents, and it has a nice bonus to firing arrows while in stealth.

Nora Huntress

Horizon Forbidden West Outfits Armour Guide PS5 PS4 Nora Huntress
Image: Push Square

Description: The iconic outfit of a notable former outcast, tailor-made for stealthy hunting.

Class: Infiltrator

Where to Find It: Sold by the Stitchers in Chainscrape and Barren Light. Requires 85 Metal Shards and 1 Scrounger Circulator to purchase.

+2 Silent Strike Heal

+1 Low Profile
Reduce your visibility to enemies.


Summary: This outfit is actually Aloy's original clothing from Horizon Zero Dawn. In Horizon Forbidden West, the armour is repurposed as a stealthy outfit, buffing your sneaky abilities by reducing your visibility to enemies and granting you a heal when you perform Silent Strikes. While it's resistant to Impact (ranged) damage, it has very few strengths against elemental attacks. Use this outfit if you plan on taking down enemies quietly.

Oseram Explorer

Horizon Forbidden West Outfits Armour Guide PS5 PS4 Oseram Explorer
Image: Push Square

Description: A traveler's attire, crafted for melee combat. No matter where the road leads, an Oseram explorer is always ready to brawl.

Class: Warrior

+2 Critical Strike+
Critical Strike deals more damage.
+1 Power Attack+
Power Attacks deal more damage.

Summary: The Oseram Explorer armour is focused on melee combat and little else. It protects you against incoming melee attacks while also enhancing Aloy's own melee abilities — Critical Strikes and Power Attacks will deal more damage. The trade-off is that this outfit has almost no resistances to elemental attacks. As a result, this outfit is best suited to those who want to use the spear against enemies, particularly human foes.

Rare Outfits

Rare Outfits are a step above Uncommon Outfits in Horizon Forbidden West. These Outfits will come into play a little later when you've leveled up a bit and are facing some larger, more dangerous machines.

Rare Outfits can be upgraded up to four times at Workbenches.

Carja Shadow

+2 Low Health Defense
Resist more damage when in the critical health state (below 25% Health).
+1 Medicine Capacity
Carry more Medicinal Berries in your Medicine Pouch.

Summary: The Carja Shadow outfit is all about keeping your health bar nice and, well, healthy. It doesn't have masses of resistance stats, but it makes up for that by keeping you alive with stronger healing berries and more of them.

Carja Wanderer

Horizon Forbidden West Outfits Armour Guide PS5 PS4 Carja Wanderer
Image: Push Square

Description: The finely-crafted attire of a seasoned explorer and trapper.

Class: Trapper

Where to Find It: Sold by the Stitcher in Scalding Spear and The Bulwark. Requires 399 Metal Shards and 1 Sunwing Circulator to purchase.

+2 Quick Trapper
Place traps faster on the field.
+1 Resilient Trapper
Take less damage when triggering your own trap or tripwire.

Summary: A fairly well balanced outfit, the Carja Wanderer armor is ideal for players laying down traps for machines. The weakness to Purgewater means you'll have to pick your battles, but at least you'll regain health more quickly.

Nora Sentinel

Horizon Forbidden West Outfits Armour Guide PS5 PS4 Nora Sentinel
Image: Push Square

Description: The garb of an accomplished Nora sharpshooter, worn by those who fought in the Red Raids.

Class: Hunter

Where to Find It: Sold by the Stitcher in Barren Light. Requires 399 Metal Shards and 1 Skydrifter Circulator to purchase.

+2 Stamina Regen

+1 Stealth Ranged+
Deal more ranged Impact damage while in stealth.

Summary: This is a great early game outfit that somewhat supersedes the Nora Anointed default armour, although it doesn't offer the boost from health items. It has far better resistances overall, but you will need to be careful when dealing with machines using Acid attacks.

Oseram Arrow Breaker

Description: Studded leather armor designed for trapping and melee combat. Sturdy enough for a difficult delve.

+1 Resilient Trapper

Summary: This outfit seems ideal for going up against humans with its melee-boosting skills, but it also has a very high defence against Plasma, so it'll be useful against certain machines too.

Oseram Wayfarer

Description: The lightweight garments of an Oseram survivalist. While extremely flexible, it still supports the Oseram's penchant for fighting up close and personal.

Where to Find It: Sold by the Stitcher in Plainsong. Requires 399 Metal Shards and 1 Widemaw Circulator to purchase.

+1 Potion Proficiency
Health Potions provide more healing and all potions are faster to consume.

Summary: As a Warrior class outfit, this is ideal for players who like to use the spear as their primary weapon. With a buff to melee attacks and providing better health potions, it certainly plays nicely into that archetype. You'll need to watch out for any incoming Shock attacks, however.

Tenakth Marshal

Horizon Forbidden West Outfits Armour Guide PS5 PS4 Tenakth Marshal
Image: Push Square

Description: A Marshal must be adept at survival in the wilds, as well as turning the weapons of machines against them. This armor helps with both.

Class: Survivor

Where to Find It: Found in a Chest nearby the Arena, next to The Memorial Grove. You'll first be able to find it during the Main Mission, The Kulrut. Here is its location:

+1 Low Health Defense
Resist more damage when in the critical health state (below 25% health).

Summary: With the skills this outfit provides, it seems ideal for stripping heavy weapons from large machines and then using them against enemies. This is a decent tactic, although it's offset by a lack of strong defences against elemental damage.

Utaru Harvester

Image: Push Square

Description: Utaru harvesters reap more than mere crops. This traditional woven outfit bolsters ranged combat while in stealth.

Summary: If you fancy sticking to the tall grass and picking enemies off, Utaru Harvester is a solid option. As long as you can avoid Shock damage, you should stay out of harm's way pretty handily with this, and the Weapon Stamina boost is a nice bonus.

Its only real weakness is Purgewater. That aside, this is probably one of the stronger outfits in Horizon Forbidden West.

Horizon Forbidden West: Burning Shores: All Outfits, Armor, and Best Outfits to Use

Horizon Forbidden West: Burning Shores, the DLC expansion, brings with it a few new Outfits for Aloy to use. As with those found in the main game, these Outfits boost Aloy's resistances and give her passive skills, improving her stats and abilities. They can be upgraded five times each, which will require resources found from defeating machines and picking things up in the environment.

Below, we've outlined all the Outfits you can find in Burning Shores, with descriptions, stats, and more.
