Krakob 4 - 2 Murderhaze
Illu, they still have more than the baseline defence and a normal UV will be equally beneficial on the two defence levels. Of course, if you're really going for Normal you'll want to go for BKC+Ancient, anyway.
Tempas, that's only true for some items. Combinations such as BKC+Snarby and BKC+Shadowsun are quite obsolete. Ancient and ASI armours are still good, though.
