350zspec 1 Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Just wondering, why bother with cloth set armors if other armors I.e. iron set have better defense values? 1 Link to comment
Flix 5,162 Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Because cloth and leather are lighter than plate and steel. The regeneration penalty is lower on lighter armors, and higher on heavier armors. With the Armor Lore skill light armors can actually give a regeneration bonus because the "penalty" has actually been reduced down into negative values. Heavier armor may carry a higher movement speed penalty when you wear armor too far above your character level, I'm not sure. Then of course there is the issue of item modifiers, which may suit character better depending on the build, and be worth using despite having lower armor values. 1 Link to comment
