Obsidian armor is a legendary armor set exclusive to the Guild Wars 2: Secrets of the Obscure expansion. Each weight class of Obsidian armor has a unique appearance. Once obtained, the armor's apperance can be upgraded into Suffused Obsidian armor, which has extra visual and combat effects.

Acquisition of the Obsidian armor sets is linked to Guild Wars 2: Secrets of the Obscure PvE content, and involves obtaining and crafting various materials throughout the expansion.
