I was wondering which would be best for high levels heavy armor, light armor, or robe. plz answer why. thx

It actually depends on your sub class. If you are Warlock sub, I'd say go ahead and go with Robe. If you are Cleric, go with light armor. If you are anything else, like bard (ew lol) or rogue, then go for heavy armor. Im voting for light armor as there is more Cleric warriors than anything else.

lol good guess and yes i am going cleric as my sub class i love warriors i think they are best class in silkroad Also i see that alot of ppl r voting for robe why is that?

magic hurts alot, and higher lvl parties you'll be grinding on mobs that have magic dmg and robes makes them easier to tank, and it makes them able to tank more in pvp since most people deal magic damage

true but the mobs in rok are both magical and phy so i was thinking light armor and also in pvp there are bowers bladers etc so if im robe ill die easy against strs lol so right now my mind is set on light armor

lol at least robe doens't like as stupid as the d9 light armor, but light armor will do you better against melee

My simple opinion. Treat a warrior the same way you treat a blader. They have a high phy defense already, why sacrifice low magical defense to increase it? Chuck on some robes if possible and cover your weaknesses. Also if your warlock or cleric subbed it helps with the mana consumption.

Although it's nice to have a HA set as well, just incase you have some prearranged fights against other warriors. A set of both go well. Though robes first in my opinion.

Either two +4/5 HA and Robe sets, or one +5/6 LA set.

i have a robe set 85-90 with 84 legs and let me tell you, warriors are gunna hit you HARD out of skin. Me personally never pvping with skin unless snowshield/bless/zerk/skins etc. are used by an opponent, it becomes tough to pvp str chars.
making two sets , both 84-88 with a 90 chest, one HA one robe, i can pvp anyone I want. In group I just wear the robes, since cleric buffs take away a lot of dmg.

Rogue/Cleric in LA, 89/90 stuff. If I buff myself with the phy/mag cleric buffs, and the glory armor passives, and healing orbit...I'm essentially unkillable.

HA: Ints can still give you trouble with skins
Prot:Owns with skins, fails w/o. Unless you got a godly set.
Robe: Bladers will kill you. hard.

well i have the gold to get a more than average set so i will probaly go with the light armor becasue it will help me against all pvpers and also whoever was talking about getting two sets lol gl with that there is no way i will be able to afford that.

What I did is.. pimped 2 sets. Got my Super mega ultra 61% + on all whites with 89 legs +5 Light Armor set which is only used when Im aiming for absolute pwnage, and got my Robe +4/5 medicore se t with maxed blues and some average %s which is used when I'm on a trade with a big group, when Im being cleric.. since I got most of the healing stuff on or just chasing some fucker.

I'd pick Light Armor over Robe though, because of the cleric sub. Still.. Robe is a damn great thing to have.. it look good too.
