If you could have your dream armor...

Armor, not weapons. I don't want complicated TL;DR posts. You can have two different parts, only two defenses per part like any other armor. This still lets you get all four, net. Keep it balanced, like trading off one status ressist for another. If you look at valkyrie/fallen, you can tell that a medium monster weakness is equal to low ASI. Low ASI is technicaly a medium level bonus, since it applys to guns and swords. CTR or damage would be high level. No more than one medium monster penalty per peice, so you cant make unkillable LD gear that gives max all monster damage penalty or something. No more than medium attack speed decrease per peice since bombers can work around it.
I'd like a tweaked version of the chaos cowl;
Normal defense increased to the level of the arcane salamander mask (+2 or 1?)
Elemental defense increased to the level of the arcane salamander mask (+2 or 1?)
No more posin weakness (+2)
Max fire weakness (-2)
Max freeze weakness (-2)
Max shock weakness (-2)
Max curse weakness (-2)
Medium feind damage penalty (-2)
Low damage bonus (+3)
Low movement speed increase (+3 or 1?)
Net -10 and +12 or +8
So it's either overpowered or underpowered by about one medium UV.
Would be nice for void levels. I couldn't tell how much of an increase it was to get arcane level defense, each increase could have been a low or a medium. Wasn't sure how much of an increase movement speed was either. I tried comparing mercurial helm to royal jelly helm, and their the same except for changed status ressistance and the movement speed difference.

I hate how most feind gear
I hate how most feind gear has curse ressist. There are no feinds in graveyards, and it's not like you're gonna use a faust on them. The only playe with curse enemys and feinds is UFSC, and theres no reason to use valkyrie there, it's got a fire weakness. If anything they should give it curse weakness and some other buff.

I think the curse resist is there for thematics sake. It isnt even that effects, because I still get cursed randomly in lockdown while using Heavenly Iron for the lulz. All it does is make curse last from 40 seconds to 20. Proportionally it's a lot, but practically you're still pretty much dead or fleeing.

I'd like this for the Grey Feather Mantle:
Normal defense would be risen. That is all.

Yhea but the curse ressist is
Yhea but the curse ressist is still useful in graveyards Traevelliath, and UFSC a little. I got a arcane mask with max curse, going for max shadow on the body.
I still like my armor the most <3
Good ele/normal defense, on par with arcane
Max curse fire shock and ice weaknesses
Medium feind penalty
Low movement speed and damage bonus
I would love something along the lines of Heavenly Iron and Deadshot. Have a fiend and undead damage bonus low/med, Stun resist instead of curse resist and shock vulnerablility, and, of course, shadow defense.
I like stun resist :P
