Ok, so far im level 31 and I really enjoy the class, I keep my weapons upgraded pretty good, but I have an armor questionusing Chain give the best def, with pretty good stats, it seem that my level 22 mastercrafted will be outdated and from what I cansee in the AH, 32 is the next big armor upgrade point, I like to keep str/agi/int on the top of my stat lists, and I was wondering if I went with a few leather armor selections at 32 I would lose the def but gain much better stat for str/agi  not everything just a few to give me a bit more on the stat side, I would lose the def of the chain for leather.   I was just wondering if this is a really big "NO NO" or is getting the extra stats worth it?I dont know the specific stats, i forgot to write them down, but seems the mastercrafted chain vs the mastercrafted leather the leather has a much greater str/agi but lacks sta and def. that the chain has.  I did this on my level 22, i went with leather chest, feet, hands but the rest chain I seemed to do ok, just not sure how this will fair in the higher levels?  so again, my questions, is it ok to mix a few leather in with the chain for the stat boost of str/agi you get with leather at the cost of the def?  help me understand.   thanks again for any help.

<p>Yes the stat bonuses are <i>slightly</i> better on the leather than the chain.  But if you are soloing or duoing you really want the mitigation instead.  It will help your survivability and the bonuses from the stats on the leather armor are not going to amount to much.  I have mostly soloed or duoed with my wife (defiler) and the only leather I wear is the Jboots.</p><p>In regards to boosting INT.....you can always use jewelry for that.</p>
