When facing to Gremlin Family & Construct Family in Tier 2, does 4 star wolver set or 2 star magic set does a better job in defending?
I am now doing some rank mission alone and thinking if I should spend, like, 2-4k for a magic set while I am having a 4 star ash tail coat, a 3 star dusker cap and 3 star twisted targe.

elemental damage
Gremlins and constructs both do elemental damage (plus some normal damage). Ash Tail will protect against more of the normal damage, while Magic will protect against more of the elemental damage.
You seem to be into swords. If I were you, I'd just use the Ash Tail set, to get more sword bonus. Buy extra defensive armor only if you find yourself dying a lot. But consider making Vog Cub (rather than Skolver) your first 5-star upgrade from Ash Tail, to finally get some elemental protection.

Just saying
It's not worth buying new armor for T2 constructs and gremlins. They're easily predictable and killable with the Brandish double combo (1 Nightblade + 1 elemental Brandish). If you need defense, rely on an Owlite Shield.

Cool. I know what I should do
Cool. I know what I should do right now.
By the way, it seems like owlite shield is a must to me.
Thanks a lot guys.
I'd say the Magic Set. 4* items get nerfed to only slightly better than 3* items in tier 2 (In tier 3 they are back to their normal strength).
I suggest getting a Magic Hood, and then running it with Ash Tail Coat. Upgrading an Owlite shield will be really useful, especially late in the game. You'll benefit in the long run having at least a few pieces of armor and a shield that can defend against each damage type.
