So please SE add some more crafted versions of those massive armor sets to the game!
Hello Andy, I think you're probably one of the rarer people who enjoyed that kind of merged Head+Chest / Pants+Boots armors. Most people I've talked to disliked them, saying their characters look like a mail box in these armors. Anyway, I'm actually glad to see someone with a different perspective and likes them! I always thought they were pretty bad azz.

However, from a crafter's perspective, these armors do have their problems. The most obvious being the Head+Chest piece only able to take up 5 materia in total despite having 4 slots. This is a big deficit in secondary stats comparing to Head & Chest pieces each melding with 5 materia individually.

From a glamor person's perspective, they're nightmares - as these armors cannot glamor over any separate pieces, and the separate pieces cannot glamor on these armors either.

And to answer your primary question - yes, the heavy darksteel armor is the last of its kind.
