Combo refers to an equipment setup that combines some portion of the high Absorption found in an Abs setup along with the high Defense found in a Dodge (or more rarely Parry) setup.

Combo tries to strike a balance between a high overall defensive rating and a high armor absorption percentage. Generally regarded as the most powerful equipment choice in the game, a combo setup is often able to trade a small reduction in absorption compared to a pure Abs setup in exchange for a substantial increase in defensive bonuses.
