Leg Armor Looms?

So I have completed my body armor +3 (+3 Leather Gloves and Black Lamellar Vest), and I'm wondering if I should move on to +3 Khergit Leather Boots. Is getting +3 leg armor worth it? I seem to take a lot of damage, like from ranged, if it hits my legs.

Leg armor is obviously not the best, I vote for head armor.

Unless you are mounted, your legs get hit a lot less than the rest of your body. If you have +3 body armor, gloves, helm, and all the +3 weaps you want then go for it but I would save boot looming for last.

Unless your other armor and weapons aren't loomed and if you haven't enough gold left, you shouldn't loom your leg armor. Loom them latest. Don't forget you only get 5 Leg Armor for looming them +3. There anything else is more important, obviously. :)

Worth it? Depends, do you like retiring/do it often enough that an extra 3 gens wouldn't be noticed? I have +3 Splinted Leather Greaves over Mail, but that is only because I had planned to retire until I was gen 16 and hit the max xp gen bonus. It conveniently worked out (retiring 15 times netted me a +3 Weapon, +3 Armor, +3 Gloves, +3 Helmet, and +3 Boots).

Of course this was somewhere in the realm of a year ago, and I cannot fathom the thought of retiring again. I have respecced twice since I hit level 33 on gen 16 and only got back up to level 33 a month or two ago.

im a big fan of loomed foot armour, but then i play as 2h Cav so getting up close and personal is somewhat necessary compared to otherr cavalry classes.

Why not, if you have all the weapons you want you may as well.

Values do not tell much if you compare leg armor bonuses to head armor bonuses. Your head gets more damage and your foot gets less damage. It does make sense looming a head armor will give more armor value than looming boots. Looming boots might seem meh in paper, but it is not when it comes to practice in my opinion. Nonetheless, getting a head armor is more advisable if you're a foot class. Even though, I still would go for boots first; but that is just me.

Just stop retiring and grinding and enjoy the game for what it is :P  Is retiring 3 more times worth the 5 more leg armor?  That 26,677, 209 XP (on top of that 8,892,403) would put you at level 33.

35569612 xp... or retire 3 more times.

I think Miley is purchasing this stuff, considering Miley does not retire last I checked.

Or are we talking about an alt?
I'm not normal and I don't pretend so, my approach is pretty much a bomb crescendo.
Death is a fun way to pass the time though, several little bullets moving in staccato.

I don't wear head armor, and I use a bunch of weapons, nor do I think that heirloomed weapons add much, in my opinion. I'm also gen. 1, and I don't retire; that's why I'm wondering what I should work on getting next.

If you ask me, it's must have if you use horse.

But also, when you duel, some players aim you legs. That usually happens when you wonder yourself how the fuck he 2 hitted  me ...  :|
