I'm assuming you are pure int, with bicheon. Most players with this build would go full prot. I went armor though, because prot is just too fugly for my taste. I did however, kept pimped pieces of prot should the need arises, and a garm set too :). But if you only wanted to use one set, then go for prot.

Yes it would be a bit low, but snow shield should cover you againts pure str chars. The problem with pure ints isnt the armor type or their defense, but their inherently low hp to tank effectively. So practically, there is no right or wrong answer when it comes to armor choice. Having full armor would render you weak against nukers (you get hit really hard even with your high int stat).
