Preceptor’s Set
- Location: Receive from Seluvise at Seluvise’s Rise at the end of Ranni’s questline.
The Preceptor’s Set includes a Big Hat, Long Gown, Gloves, and Trousers. The headpiece of this set increases Mind by 3 but decreases the Stamina a bit. After the players are done with Ranni’s quest line, they can obtain this set. Moreover, they can kill Seluvis to obtain this set as well.
Juvenile Scholar Set
- Location: Found at the Graveyard on the east of Caria Manor.
The Juvenile Scholar Set comes with the Juvenile Scholar Cap and the Juvenile Scholar Robe. When it comes to set effects, the Juvenile Scholar Set might not be up the par with the other sets in this list. However, the lightweight of this set will make up for the absence of any strong effect.
Carian Knight Armor Set
- Location: Found beside a grave near the Academy of Raya Lucaria.
The Carian Knight Armor Set comes with the Carian Knight Helm, the Carian Knight Armor, the Carian Knight Gauntlets, and the Carian Knight Greaves. Among all the lightweight sets included in this list, this is one of the most useful medium-weight sets that are suitable for Magic builds of Elden Ring. This armor set also has a decent physical and elemental damage resistance which makes it rank among the best in this category.
Alberich’s Set

However, the leg and chest pieces included in this set are only used as a uniform as they do not provide any kind of effects.
Queen of the Full Moon Rennala’s Set
- Location: Needs to be bought from Finger Reader Enia in Roundtable Hold.
The Queen of the Full Moon Rennala’s Set comes with a Crescent Crown, Robe, Bracelets, and Leggings. The headset worn with this armor set increases the Intelligence of the players by 3.

Snow Witch Set
- Location: Found at Renna’s Rise after completing Ranni’s questline.
The Snow Witch Set includes Snow With a Hat, Snow Witch Robe, and a dashing Snow Witch Skirt. The head-piece boosts other Cold Sorceries by 10%. The whole set is one of the most good-looking sets that comes with a snow-white theme. The set needs to be obtained from the second floor of Renna’s Rise after finishing Ranni’s questline.
Spellblade Set
- Location: Found from Sorcerer Rogier in Roundtable Hold.
The Spellblade Set is one of the most light-weighted sets in this list that comes with Spellblade’s Pointed Hat, Spellblade’s Traveling Attire, Spellblade’s Gloves, and Spellblade’s Trousers. This is one of the best sets for a Magic build in Elden Ring as well, as each part of the set increases the Frost and Magic damage dealt by Ashes of War or other weapon skills by 2%.
Battlemage Set
- Location: Must be obtained by defeating Battlemage.
The Battlemage Set is a perfect fit for the Magic build as it increases Intelligence and Strength when worn with the Halima Glintstone Crown.

Players need to defeat Battlemage at the Windmill Pasture in the north Altus Plateau to obtain this set.

Azur’s Glintstone Set
- Location: Hermit Village in Mt. Gelmir.
The Azur’s Glintstone Set is one of the coolest-looking armor sets for Magic builds in Elden Ring. This is also one of the most useful sets as it provides 15% increased damage to Comet Azur and Glintstone Cometshard. However, all the FP costs of every sorcery also increased by 15%. Nevertheless, the damage boost of this armor set surely does make up for the increased FP cost for using sorceries.
