I dont know what you would wish to use everyround....but i been playing for a while (actually too much) since the patch came out,and used kind of 4 sets:
1.Full black plated armor in many many rounds with tears and a maul a heavy set,heavy gauntlets and all the stuff...
2. Used coat of plates with heavy pieces and same weapons,
3. lammelar (13k one) which is a pretty handy armor and...
4. then light armors when multiplier was x1 or x2 or map was unbalanced or team was losing with no solution.
Depending on the chances or the composition of teams and terrain i changed hand armor,feet armor and head armor accordingly risking more or less depending on the estimated chances of win. Sometimes changed weapons too,as usual. But mostly tears or longsword and maul or pike.
Started with 120k , bought clymore sword which cost like 10k,played for like 1.5 million xp (gen1,so its slow) and:
And still have 112K(so im up 2k refounding the clymore)....i could have won more not going FULL FULL equip that much times,but why not?.Still have the same gold and i dont even need it for nothing. But i like the different sets,each one has his use and his proposit.
Now for all of you who say plate is op or that you need plate everyround.....you both:
Everytime i go full plate, im not in advantage against an enemy on my same skill and lvl which wears lighter armor than me in a duel. (its even worse if there are 2 of them). Which means in a 1 vs 1, in a round he hasnt invested much,he has the actual advantage,cause he has the same skills,lvls,but more speed. Yeah,i only need one hit most of the time in that case. But if he had choose well his weapon and has the PS needed to do the job without glancing (which was like 6 before the patch,probably 5 could do the job depending on the weapon damage type and cuantity),he has the advantage.
Actually, with the weapon proficiency that heavy armor makes you lose, you deal far less damage in black armor,than naked....just test it people.
Plate gives u protection. But protection "in general cases" against medium hits, low damage projectiles, team hits , and low lvl hits that would had pierce your medium armor and stun you.... Plate doesnt protect u from a hit from a PS6 or more melee dedicated char of your same lvl.You gona take 2 or 3 at much then die. What im trying to explain,its that when i use the lighter sets and i find a bad player in full plate,i just think "Oh shit,this is gona cost him a lot".
In conclusion: No matter whats nerfed or not,as long as its not stupidly unbalanced,im gona get OWNED most of the time by players that are better than me,even if lower lvls, and own then players that are worse than me most of the time,even if higher,as long as im not lvl 1 and they are 30 or the contrary. And this works for u all too.This happens in all games,Pls people, get over it.
NOBODY cant have his full set everyround,so YOU can kill people easier than before(if done correctly,which im trying to work on XDD) as long as YOU can be killed easier too,pretty fair for me.
And pls,pls,pls, stop the "oh so one peasant can kill me if i wear my leeching robe,and i have been playing this for 7 months!!!! ITS NOT FAIR,I WOULD KILL HIM IF I HAD MY 200K EQUIPMENT!!!" argument , it makes me vomit. I love the patch.
And now,my only complain about the patch for now:
Please chadz,fix the Health showing in game,many chars are shown to start with less hp than full,even when they have full hp.
