Title: Garm Armor
Post by: Aristaeus on April 28, 2009, 01:01:22 pm

Is it even the least bit useful?

I'm debating on whether it'd be better to keep it or sell it.  I've been using it for Niff, but it seems that using a disguise armor would be better.  DEF is nice and all, but I don't see much use for the Garm armor.

Ive debated this myself. And Disguise is imo the best card for armor for niff.

I say keep it, but for another use. And card a Disguise in a chainmail or padded.

Well, I all ready have both in +7 Mink's.  The armor's heavy, but wearable by all classes.

I'm just debating on what the use of a Garm armor would be.  I don't see the benefit in pvp with GR and status armors being the most common there.  PvM maybe?

and on this note: PC > +7 Garm Mink

Well if you personally cant find a use for it sell it then.

Im gonna say 20~23mil for price check.

To me, Garm chainmail is good to use on maps with mid~high-levelled heavy-hitting neutral monsters like OwlDukes and Medusas. Status armours might be better choice on most occasions though. *shrugs*

EDIT: Forgot to mention earlier that if you're stingy with using meats, damage reduction gears are the way to go.

Pure DEF is only great when reaching a certain number and beyond. If you can't reach 80+ DEF, I'd say don't even bother having a Garm.

It's a specialty route in my opinion, so I feel you would be better off just relying on Reductions instead. Example for Nif; Bathory/Evil Druid, Tirfing, Deviling.

Obviously having those in some nice +7's or greater will be an added bonus. Since alteast average DEF combined with full Reductions will be better then just full Reductions in +4 or lower crap for lousy DEF.
