all these complaints about "tin can armor" ... why are you playing pld if you don't like being in heavy armor?
I can't stand the way the DL Chest/Helm look either. They are just SO UGLY and the way your head derps back and forth when you run around is just humiliating; it is worse than the female Hyur's prance running (palms out, ladies!). I have been saving up my 900 myth for +1 when Titan stops being a jerk, but I am seriously thinking about blowing 825 on my AF2 chest + Hoplite just so I can avoid looking like a derpy robot.
So, if the goal is to shame players into AF2, it is definitely working!
The Game should never be ugly. I can be off, or less good, and if these pieces were in another game it might be received better, but with the rest of the game looking otherwise incredible this one set that hits you even at level 50 is like a blazing sour thumb with a blister. A lot of little things could have made this set better, but I guess they saved the original design for this set for the PvP gear which is disappointing. I skipped this item set for the AF+1 head and body for my WAR, but its still an issue. I'd rather not see it in the game, by force of mechanics, period.
