Xegonite Devout - good for the battlemage

[Mistmoore-Milaga]

The new Xegonite Devout armor seems to be pretty good.  All the stats are +16 STR/INT, +15 STA and +1 disruption.  The mitigation is almost exactly the same as the soon-to-be-old-model Cobalt armor although it has more health and power and more varied and higher resists.  I am considering getting a full suit of this made as backup and DPS armor.  It's hard to find peices of armor that give such high INT and STR, and since it's fairly easy to cap out INT, especially if you get a buff, I think sacrificing a bit for more STR will mean more power and damage on those sword swings.  The old Xegonite Devout had +18 STR/INT/STA but +1 focus and no resists.  I think I like this new stuff better.  Not as good stats, but you won't be without resists and I'd like disruption more than focus if I'm going to use this as my DPS armor.That leaves one lingering question which I have posed to this group time and time again.  What does this armor look like?  I have not seen anyone wear it.<div></div>

Yeah I like the stats on the devout armor, I had about 3 pieces of the plate armor made b4 it was changed and I hadnt seen devout and now I wish I had.  Id rather have the +str than wis that plate has, and now plate only has +1 ministration which doesnt really help much as an SK.  Maybe I'll just have to get the rest as devout and look wierd with plate arms and chest, pants, and helm as devout lol.

<div></div><p>Hey all,</p><p>I've been working trying to get shots of all of the types of new armor, i had to repost the pics, so they should be up now.  Just for those that don't want to go over, here's a pic of me in full devout, as well as a customer in full Vanguard.  I went ahead and made myself a full suit of Devout for when i'm in offensive dps mode, and just recently made a suit of Vanguard for when i'm in defensive and tanking.  Take your pick.  Right now it'll tide me over until i get more Legendary drops...</p><p>Nirmoc - 66 Barbarian Shadowknight/70 Armorer - Full Xegonite Devout Armor</p><p><img src="http://img79.imageshack.us/img79/2193/xegonitedevoutfull8bi.jpg"></p><p> </p><p>Axel - Full Xegonite Vanguard Armor<img src="http://img234.imageshack.us/img234/9613/xegoniteplateaxel9yy.jpg"></p>
