get a set of both if you have the money, cuz it is good to have a set of armor for mobs, and garm is DEF better for pvp, especially against nukers, if you are wearing armor vs. a nuker, you will get eaten for breakfast.

Using garment since level 16..
Full str blade tho..
never used armor or protecter because they both ugly and they will slow me down..

Just get some good garment set instead of wasting money on 2 sets..
my garment is all +3 or more..
And alot of HP and str added..

Reflecting on my past life and it doesn't have much time.
'Cause at 5 o'clock they take me to the Gallows pole,
The sands of time for me are running low.

Can it be that there's some sort of error.
Hard to stop the surmounting terror.
Is it really the end, not some crazy dream.

Also depends on how good your equipment and buffs are.
Without buffs and with bad armor you WILL be eaten for breakfast.
Dmg might go up to 8k even if you DO have buffs.
And how much pure STRs have? Like 12k-13k HP? :roll:
2 or 3 nukes and your raped.

For now, I'd go with the garment since there are alot of mag. mobs heading your way.. (?)

I was thinking about gunpowders, taoists, scorps.

I'm Full Str on Alps, Glavie aswell.

Full Str+Garment+Fire Protection=Good protection against both Phy & Mag damage (or, decent against both instead of good/bad, bad/good)

rawr indeed! It's up to you; don't let people pressure you into something you don't like. I'm pure str and I intend to use armor at later levels because I want to play to my strengths. It's your choice.

If you have absolutly any brain cells at all youll do what nukers do get a deceant set of both and use them depending on the mob no smart person just sticks with one set of clothes :D

ok fyi thats sorta sad if u pure str ur sopposed to dominate the pvp field it should be a 50/50 thing if this is true there is something wrong with ur build beucase he should not win half the time u should win almost every time if not there could be a few things wrong

1. ur build sux
2. u botted and cant fight cuase botters suc at pvp

For STR glaive, I say protector. Has a pretty high mag. def and also a good phy. def + it has some of the speed and mana bonuses that garments give. I don't know, I like 'em but only once I hit 8th deg. Up until 8th deg I used garms. :D

Ew.
STR already has plenty of phys def.
Garment wins. WINS.

Maybe in PVP, but I get a set of each, and when I grind prot. saves me a lot of pots.

Go for garment....I think garment is the best in this game...You can run fast and you have more magical defence..
