Anarchist LBV vs. Suit
I've heard conflicting opinions on what armor to wear when using Anarchist. Some people say that the suit has faster armor regeneration than the LBV, while others say that both armors have the same regeneration time and using the LBV along with Frenzy can help tank damage. Is there anyway to figure out the regeneration times for both armors?

Yes. You can check out the Long Guide.

Or if you're lazy...

Suit: 10 armor / 2sec.
LBV: 15 armor / 3sec.

The reason why you go suit over LBV, is that the armor amount is irrelevant since you should only be interested in armorgating.

In my experience the regen loss from LBV is minor, while the armor gain from it with the right build is enough to keep you alive longer than standard suit.

Right, but what is the difference in regeneration time? Is there any way to find out?

Just use the suit and get partners in crime. The bonus HP from PiC DOES count for anarchist coversion into armor...

So yeah, you will be running around in a suit with around 300 armor.

Honestly thought... unless you play VERY conservatively, you'll most likely never be at 100% armor anyway so the LBV is kind of redundant unless you really need the armor. Better get that suit for the best armor gating possible.

Fair enough. Thanks for the answer.
