The title says it all. I'm tired of letting a slag walker take half my health away with just a swipe because I lagged or couldn't shield on time.
Currently, I run in Vog Cub Coat and Divine Veil, which works really well when I catch fire (rarely) and the projectiles in the mask phases, but since I'm mostly confronted by shadow-dealing things in FSC, and since I don't get hit much in the actual boss fight, I feel that I should concentrate there instead of the full elemental defence bar I get from the combination I'm wearing now.

So, I crafted a Seraphic Mail today which will be upgraded to the Armor of the Fallen, but I wonder if making also the crown is worth it, or just keep the divine veil (which, by the way, cancels the damage penaly vs fiend you get from the Mail)

I know this topic must be discussed to death, but forum search doesn't help me much so... new topic!
Shield is Grey Owlite, and I'll replace it with a Crest of Almire as soon as I obtain the tokens to get the blackened crest and heat it (lol)
