Please don't play mage, you obviously don't have the intellectual capacity to do so.
Use a sword, it will be better for you I think.

First of all, no armor is necessary when you play a mage, and secondly, instead of asking for help, explore and find your own weapon, the one you will keep with you.

Forgive me if I sound scornful, that's not the point, but Mage is not for everyone, it requires a fine and strategic mind.

The Mage never asks for advice, he dispenses it don't forget it

Its not like any armor is for a specyfic class. There's no drawback or penality for wearing knight heavy armors as a mage, or sorcerer's light robes as a warrior.

You choose armor by:
1. absorption stats
2. weight (you dont want to fat roll, but you might want to have light load for a long roll)
3. Most important: looks

Some armor pieces give minor stat bonuses, or dmg increase for specyfic attacks. It's always stated in item describtion and you might also see stat changes in character info on the right in Equipment menu.

It’s a damn shame that the Mage armor with the most drip is like the worst set there is for mages (Alberich’s set). But yeah Mamba nailed it. And you’ll find more spells in various places, but if you’re EXTRA curious, I recommend

In souls it's mostly the skills that count otherwise everyone would have the same equipment.
It's often a casual idea to want the most powerful armor or weapon when it's better to use the one you master the most.
I have crushed many arrogant players with better equipment than me because of my skill and technique.

That's what gives so much joy and tension in a pvp fight because the only limit is the human mind each player can be unpredictable and turn the tables.

After that it's a Magister's advice, it's up to you to listen to it or to continue this futile search for the best armor that is supposed to compensate your lack of skills.

But 75% of pvp is people wearing full bull with blood naginatas or magic spam. So, I mean, there’s that. I’m glad you figured out that armor means nothing in pvp, may I have your opinion on what crayon color tastes the best?
