And that is achieved best by moving out of way of incoming attacks or parrying them, not absorbing blows. Armor value is the last line of defence; even health is more important since it increases stagger gauge capacity.

The movement speed provided by Fenris set also decreases cost of movement actions since their stamina cost is affected by movement speed penalty.

It's not a "melee" set either, you can use any weapon you want.
