I wonder...
I made an alt, that i want to use as a some kind of a guest account (So my friends can play on tier 3 with me). However, i am not going to make all the dedicated sets again, as that would be too expensive. Unsurprisingly, my initial choice was Divine Veil and Skolver coat, but then i thought about FSC. I mean, i am trying to make an all-around set, but i think Volcanic plate+divine veil would simply do better there, for its normal and fire protection. (The sleep weakness means nothing at this point, and asi reducement by approx 4% does not mean much to me either). I would lose piercing protection, but trading it for elemental just seems better to me, as piercing can get rather obsolete. But then, isn't it better to simply make a dedicated, Vog set?
What do you guys think?
An experienced player starting a new knight has different needs from a new player starting a new knight. You are already planning to focus on FSC. You are not worried about piercing enemies, and you are not planning to have this knight do Shadow Royal Jelly Palace. So either of your proposed loadouts is quite reasonable.
On the other hand, is this knight going to be used by friends who aren't as experienced as you? Then maybe your proposed loadouts aren't so great. The Volcanic Plate defense is nice, but attack speed decrease is a bit...cruel. Vog Cub has no shadow or shock protection. Hmm.
By the way, it's against the terms of service to "allow someone else to access your account".
