New or old cobalt armor?

[Dwergux]

I've noticed that cobalt chain armor will changwe with LU24. I currently have soem cobalt clusters to have some armor made.What do you advise: Go for the current cobalt armor (Higher mitigation, stats depnding on slot, higher resists) or the new cobalt armor (same stats across the board, lower mitigation and resists, higher stats and HP/Mana)See this link for information on the armors:<a href="http://eqiiforums.station.sony.com/eq2/board/message?board.id=general_tradeskill&message.id=101329#M101329" target="_blank">http://eqiiforums.station.sony.com/eq2/board/message?board.id=general_tradeskill&message.id=101329#M101329</a><p>Message Edited by Dwergux on <span class=date_text>06-12-2006</span> <span class=time_text>02:50 PM</span>

I would go with the new armor unless you plan on tanking. <div></div>

<P>If you solo or sometimes tank, though, run and get the old as fast as you can.</P><p>Message Edited by mbolme on <span class=date_text>06-13-2006</span> <span class=time_text>10:19 AM</span>

<DIV>For PvP, I like the old armor;  The specific resists granted, higher mitigation and the INT granted on the old pants is a win across the board.  Only thing to really miss from the new armor is higher HP/Stam.  </DIV>

Thanks for the feedback.I was simply too late to have the old ones made, so I went with the new "Cobalt Meldoic Chain" armorI couldn't sell the clusters for they were bought with DKP and we aren't allowed to sell items bought with DKP
