Light or Heavy Nemeton Armor

[mamapower]

Hi all, I want to hear which one you picked and why when joining Nemeton?

Personally I am still considering but I am leaning towards Heavy. I play spear without shield, so I guess both would fit a bit different builds/approaches to fighting but I do like the idea of this tough guy with spear. :D

i took light armor all the way. it lowers your overall stamina consumption, which is broken. first one is 30% i believe

It gives additional dash and that's it afaik. Which is great, don't get me wrong but didn't seem as OP to me

Heavy worked well for me with sword and board.

In the end I went with heavy but I also started using shield with spear. Now with higher level it is less useful to have secondary spear attack as I can quite quickly get focus for skills.

Anyway, thanks all for sharing. Loving the game :D

Shield is amazing once you get the stun enemy on perfect block skill, a lot of one on one fights becomes a breeze with this, but theres a talisman that gives you +50% damage on your next attack after a dodge, so a fast dagger build with that should be awesome.

There is a ring that you can get in chapter 4 that allows you to get health back that is lost if you quickly attack enemies that damage you, with heavy armor and a shield you can effectively trade damage with the enemies endlessly.

you can get that Ring as soon as Chapter 3, but it takes so much exploring you pretty much sequence break the intended progression.
Do not underestimate the Raw Stats on the heavy armor. Armor is powerful in this game and can trivialize fights. especially coupled with a shield.
