All heavy armor meant to be used with heavy swords. But it has a really bad AS( attack speed) debuff. Especially it affects troika line which already slow enough to make you dead on t3.
To fix this I suggest to add for all types of heavy armor "sword damage bonus" ( 2*-4* low, 5* med.)
That will make heavys slow, but deadly. Just as it should be.
P.S. Heavy armor = plate series.
Yes. I agree with you. But I doesn't think that Spiral Knight or Three Rings will fix this issue. :C
How about replacing AS debuff with movement speed debuff on Volcanic and Ironmight? I think that would be pretty cool.
The heavy line is actually some of the best armor in the game.
I think they are fine as they are.
If anything I would ask for a shadow heavy set.
Do the plates even need the debuff? I mean the plate protects mostly against normal which, while it would be very amusing to run through tier 1 like some supergod, is not as useful in tier 3. Even without the debuff, I actually wouldn't really want it to be honest. Probably would want something like the volcanic demo suit. Thoughts?
I thought about making a huge all cool like response, but I think I'll make a whole other thread for it...

I don't think the extra normal defense of ironmight will make it better than skolver, but could be interesting with volcanic.
