Best armor to buy for a lvl 30 SK?

[CCRychi]

I am jsut wondering what others think is the best armor to go for at lvl 30. I am stickler for matching items as well. I would rather have matching items if possile as long as they perform as good as an unmatching set. Is there anywhere I can view armor pics? Thanks for the advice everyone.

At lvl 30 the best you can get that will happen to match is pristine feysteel vanguard plate armor. As far as pics of the armor in game, i don't know. <div></div>

<P>Feysteel crafted is the best you can easily get for your 30's. If you buy the chest, shoulders, and legs, every other piece of armor you buy will automatically match the orange feysteel armor color.</P> <P>If you can't afford feysteel, dont sweat it. The 30's go by fast, so you can wear whatever you want (I wore the junky feyiron that I crafted myself, and didn't really have much of a problem). You will want to save up for ebon in your 40's, and definately cobalt for your 50's. Monsters in SS will [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn] you if you wear junk armor and app level spells, so save your copper for level 40 and beyond.</P>

What sucks worse is that I have yet to harvest a single cobalt cluster among the 400+ indium clusters I've gathered thus far.<BR></DIV>
