Sakai Clan Armor
The Sakai Clan Armor is the armor of Jin's father, Lord Kazumasa Sakai, which Jin reclaims at Omi Village during Ghosts from the Past. It boosts melee damage and health and extends your Standoff streak, so it is the set for open fights.

How to get it
Follow the main story in Toyotama to Ghosts from the Past. Jin returns to his family home at Omi Village and takes the armor from the estate.
Tips
Pair it with the Charm of Inari's Might for a big boost to health and melee damage. If you wear it into the Sheltered Campsite on Iki before The Legacy of Kazumasa Sakai, the villagers flee and you cannot start that tale, so swap outfits first.
Iki Island lock
When you start the Iki Island expansion, only the Jin from Yarikawa dye and the basic helmet stay available for this set. Everything else unlocks again after Massacre at Kidafure Village.
