Bozja Relic Armor
Resistance Armor is the relic armor set introduced in the Shadowbringers expansion of Final Fantasy XIV. These armor sets are obtained through participation in the Bozjan Southern Front and Zadnor battlefield zones, which are part of the Save the Queen: Blades of Gunnhildr storyline.
Unlike traditional dungeon gear, Resistance Armor is earned through large-scale battlefield engagements, skirmishes, and raid-style encounters inside the Bozja system.
Players collect special battlefield currencies and upgrade materials which are exchanged for armor pieces and enhancements.
Resistance Armor Progression Overview
| Stage | Armor Tier | Location |
|---|---|---|
| Stage 1 | Bozjan Armor | Bozjan Southern Front |
| Stage 2 | Augmented Bozjan Armor | Bozjan Southern Front |
| Stage 3 | Law’s Order Armor | Zadnor |
| Final Stage | Augmented Law’s Order Armor | Zadnor |
Each stage requires participation in battlefield events and collecting upgrade currencies.

Players unlock Resistance Armor during their progression through the Bozjan Southern Front.
The armor pieces are purchased using special battlefield currencies obtained from:
-
Skirmishes
-
Critical Engagements

Bozjan battlefield events
Requirements
Players must first unlock the Bozjan Southern Front by progressing through the Save the Queen storyline.
Once inside the battlefield, completing events will reward the currencies required to purchase armor pieces.

This upgrade improves the armor’s attributes and enhances its appearance.

special Bozja events
These materials are exchanged through NPC vendors located in the Bozja base camp.

Zadnor contains stronger enemies, additional skirmishes, and larger battlefield encounters.
How to Obtain
Players obtain materials by completing:

Critical Engagement events

large battlefield boss encounters
These materials are exchanged for the Law’s Order Armor set.
Final Stage — Augmented Law’s Order Armor

Players must continue participating in Zadnor content to collect the required upgrade materials.
Common activities include:

Zadnor battlefield events
-
Critical Engagement bosses
-
large-scale raid encounters
Once enough materials are collected, players can upgrade their armor through Bozja NPC vendors.
Best Resistance Armor Farming Strategy
The most efficient way to obtain Resistance Armor is to participate in organized skirmish and critical engagement farming groups.
Recommended approach:
-
Join a Bozja instance with active skirmish farming
-
Participate in Critical Engagement boss fights
-
Progress through the Save the Queen storyline
-
Farm Zadnor events for higher-tier upgrades
Because Bozja rewards multiple currencies simultaneously, consistent battlefield participation will gradually unlock the entire armor set.
