When I go to make a piece of armor, I look for what I want to use it for, and I get a UV for it based on how I will use it. Most of the items are obvious- want chroma items? Get poison/fire/elemental/piercing/normal- those are what its good at, and there are reasons to benefit them- normal is good all around, fire/poison for whisp levels, elemental/piercing for more vs slime/oiler/quicksilver.
But almirian crusader armor is better in almost no situation. It gives curse resistance, but less than other items. Its only benefit is normal defense, but honestly I'd never use it for that reason due to deadshot outclassing it in every other way with its handgun bonus low. I understand that its intended to function only as a costume, but surely there must be some reason to get it other than its "very high epeen."
Does anyone use almirian crusader armor in a legitimate way?
And yes, I can answer my own question with a nice firm "No." but I'd like to ask all of you guys.
Same reason one would get something with a sleep uv?
