Enhanced Griffin Armor
Enhanced Griffin Armor is the upgraded chest piece of the Griffin School gear, the second of the base game’s four levels (basic, enhanced, superior and mastercrafted). It is medium armor built for a Sign-focused build, and its headline bonus is +10% Sign intensity.
The next step is the superior version, which needs this one as a component, and the line ends with the Grandmaster Griffin Armor in Blood and Wine. It is crafted from the basic Griffin Armor. The rest of the enhanced set: gauntlets, trousers, boots.
The matching blades from the same tier are the Enhanced Griffin Steel Sword and the Enhanced Griffin Silver Sword.
