For Planar Ornament, the best will be Belobog of the Architects since it’s have defense focused stats. Unfortunately, this set only can be obtained from Herta Simulated Universe, World 6 so it will take time to get proper sets.

In the meantime, you can use other easier-to-obtain planar sets like Fleet of the Ageless which will increase all allies ATK by 8%.
