Q: How do you unlock Knight Squire armor?

A: Complete Fiorayne's follower quest M★2 Flicker in the Night.

Q: How do you unlock Hoplite/Heavy Knight armor?

A: Complete Arena Master Arlow's follower quest M★4 Unknown Invader.

Q: What to augment on armor? (Qurious crafting system)

A: The armor augment system is too difficult to aim for specific skills for, so I won't include them in the builds here. For general advice, try upgrading level 2 or 3 slots to level 4 slots, or getting points of skills that can free up decoration slots. Skills like Chain Crit which currently have no decoration are also good.

Defense Master (Level 3)

Prevents sharpness loss on guarding; restore sharpness by 1 instead.

Kushala Daora Soul (Level 3)

Increase affinity by 5% for 3 seconds when landing a hit. Upgrades to 15% after landing 5 hits without expiring.

Elembane (Level 3)

Increase damage by 15% when exploiting an enemy's elemental weakness. Affects hitzones with elemental value greater than 25, and works on phial damage. Only use for power element phial charge blades. Note that for some monsters, this decoration is not very impactful as they may only have elemental hitzone value over 25 on a small part of their body, meaning most SAED phials will not benefit.

Narwa Soul (Level 2)

Increase affinity by 5% for each piece of Ibushi armor equipped (10% for the Narwa/Ibushi mixed set).

Valstrax Soul (Level 2)

Increase base Dragon element value by 20% when affected by dragonblight (from Valstrax armor).

Brutal Strike (Level 2)

When affinity is negative, gives a 25% chance to negatively crit for +50% damage instead of -25%. Only use if using a weapon with high negative affinity (Final boss or Diablos) and no affinity skills.

Anti-Aquatic/Anti-Aerial/Anti-Dragon/Fanged Exploit (Level 2)

Boosts damage vs a specific monster type by 5%, including phial damage.

Defense Edge (Level 1)

Prevents sharpness loss on guarding.

Notes

Dereliction gives a large boost to Attack when using the blue switch skill scroll, but drains your health. 1 point of Blood Rite is taken to offset this, but if you do not need it, use Archfiend/Lunagaron chest instead.

Improvements

Notes

This set uses Dereliction with Blood Rite to give some lifesteal. Since no specific element-boosting "Blessing" skills are needed, this template should work for any element with minor changes. If using Fire element, Silver Sol chest and Malzeno waist will give more room for skills.
