Armor (or equipment) consists of wearable items in both Arena Combat Mode by the player and by enemies in Madness: Project Nexus. They can be bought in the Gear Shop of Arena Combat Mode. There are four categories; Headgear, Eyewear, Face gear, and Body armor. Most equipment with low armor are for decorative purposes only. Each article of equipment carries a weight along with it, ranging from none to heavy.

As of v1.8, there are currently 88 articles of equipment that can be purchased and worn in Arena Combat Mode. Additionally, there are several equipment items unavailable to the player in the Gear Shop, denoted by red cells in the lists below.
