What about Light Dragonscale (or Drake scale) armor?

Wade's Superior Dragonskin Armor (the medium one), or Warden Commander's Armor.

If you get Warden's Commander early, it'll be made of steel which reduces the fatigue quite a bit.

Actually it can be upgraded in two ways. The cheaper is puting it inside that chest at Soldier Peek and giving it a time to respawn. The other is selling it to Levy and buing it again, presto... instant upgrade... but not cheap.

Yeah, though there's no point in upgrading it unless you want to your tank to wear it ;)

To be fair, that cost is how it should be. The only other armours in the Warden Commander Armour's league require various acts of self-masochism like slaying Dragons and paying a fortune, fighting whole armies in the deep roads or hunting down Revenants.

I think the selling it to Levy/Mikkael and re-buying does some some strange things, on occasion. I ended up with a Dragonbone set at a level when I was still getting Silverite and Red Steel gear.

Wade's Superior Dragonscale + Executioner's Helmet



Can go for the medium armor set for better fatigue and less protection if you choose.

Heavy and massive are fine if you invest in a bit of willpower.

Seriously....



Fatigue is not that big of a freaking deal. If it is, then you're obviously doing it wrong.



There is no excuse for a warrior to not be wearing massive armor in this game. Especially given how many items out there (including massive armor pieces) either flat out give +Stamina or +Stamina Regen.



Finally, they fixed death blow as well, so you get heaps of stamina back from killing enemies - which as a warrior, you ought to be able to occasionally accomplish (assuming you don't have a case of uncoordination to go along with your mental retardation).



I swear, if I see one more person suggest wearing anything OTHER than massive armor to a warrior, I am going to reach through the monitor and punch you for being a ******.



/okay ,probably not.... but you should punch yourself.

LOL JJm. Some people just don't like the massive sets though, or have crap WP... esp at low levels. In the end game, there's no real reason not to go massive though, you're right. My DW wore steel chainmail, then upgraded it to dragonbone, then switched it out piece by piece for the ancient elven set, then upgraded to Wade's Superior Dragonbone Plate. I can have Dual Strike, Momentum and Berserk going and still activate most moves more than once, plus drop into my Reaver stances and still be able to sweep and whirlwind when necesarry.

The function that they use in the toolset to scale equipment has a slight variation built into it. It's possible to get an item about a level lower or a level higher than you should.

I went the medium Wade armour. Good protection, not too much aggro and costs almost no stamina.

Good to know, cheers. I'm wanting to play through using a Silverite Warden Commander suit (and make a helmet for the set in the Toolset made out of the same material) so it'll be useful to know when to travel to it.

I got the feeling I did Warden's Keep too late in the game, anyhow.

Besides the fact that massive armor looks terrible and my dps warrior is not my tank on nightmare. I wear Wade's Superior Dragonscale that I've recolored and changed the model for. Heavy works just fine for me, thanks.

The difference between low fatigue and high fatigue will be about 10 stamina more for abilities. The +50 stam on wardens boots should cover that though.



Personally I'm a fan of Knight's Commander armor for the spell resist. Nothing beats a warrior immune to spells and it also adds 25 stamina.

The best IMHO is probably the Evon the Great's Mail + Wade's Superior Plate Boots and Gloves. For some odd reason, it counts as a set. It gives 27 armor and does not have any fatigue penalty. Plus given Health and Stamina regen, 10% evasion and chance to dodge missile attacks. Combine it with Key To The City, Lifegiver, Anduril's Blessing and The Spellward and you'll be unstoppable.

not everyone is a maxi/mini player some actualy want to play the game as a warrior wearing light armour swinging a big hammer or axe.
The lighter the armour the less agro you pull from your main tank. So if your DW or using a 2 hander go for a lighter set I would say.
I had a dwarf who used a 2-hander with medium Dragon Scale armour did very well in alot of the fights. Only problem I had was the mages seemed to target him all the time.

Here's the thing - I don't give a rats ass about how you play, but when someone comes into a gameplay thread asking what kind of armor they should wear on their warrior and you get random responses from retards that range from "a floss bikini" to "turnips", someone has to go, "Hey wait a minute! Don't listen to these crazy farkers!"

Also, armor weight only affects who the enemies pick as their initial targets (guys in range weighted by armor size, starting at the closest to perception range) - not how much threat you generate over all. So your reasoning is false.

JJM's right about the massive though, it seriously is the best armor for any warrior. There are sets that give + stamina that more than counters the faitgue. I put my DW rogue in massive armor for 41 armor: Evon's Mail, Helm of Honleath, Gloves and Boots of Dilligence, Lifeward (I think, the ring with +3 armor). On Nightmare all the enemies do one point of damage if they hit him, unless his armor's been sundered or he's fighting a boss. I still have enough stamina to use specials and put up modes. I have no idea why people are terrified of fatigue, at most you might have 35% fatigue in armor and even then you won't really notice the effects unless you're playing a healer.
