Armour recommendations?

[Trans Lives Matter <3]

I am finding it very hard to give up on the Toussaint Knight's Tourney armor.

4 pieces of armour, each giving +500 Vitality.
That is +2000 Vitality. Can one really afford to give that up?

Recommendations for better armour, please? I definitely prefer the battle approach of just going all in the slicing everything up, and the only sign I really use is Quen, and occasionally Aard.

I have over 86,000 gold to spend. Thanks

Honestly ? 2000 vit isn"t that much. You can get that by specing alchemy and being a fat stack of health and be op. I would say try to find an armour that completes your build or improves even further.

It would be easier to give you some pointers if you could give your build.

I have FULL mega super crafted cat gear.. Every single item,,, Boots armour trousers both swords gloves... well worth the 110k odd it cost :-)

Hehe I clearly am well out of the loop... I don't even know what a "build" is.

WOOT WOOT Gratz on having taste dude, it IS bar none the sexyist armour going aint it....

The answer for armor past extreme early game is almost always, your build appropriate, witcher gear set of the right armor weight/type.

There is some variation thanks to Wolven and Manticore though.

..........

In general if your playing on any higher difficulty vitality isn't really your most important stat, since you tend to want to not be taking or mitigating damage in the first place.

I've found that by investigating every single question mark on the screen I've found great relic gear for every single slot. Much better than the basic cat or griffin gear that the game wants me to hunt down. Of course, maybe that changes later in the game ? I dunno.

[worm_master]

Relic gear is indeed excellent gear, but sometimes your more interested in FORM then FUNCTION, nothing like a matched colour coordinated outfit, to lift ya spirits whilst slogging though that swamp, especially when u stumble across dat mouldy Water hag..

my usual go-to is grandmaster ursine armor with grandmaster ursine steel sword and B&W Aerondight.
both swords have the runeword to improve whirl range and the armor has levity enhancement. pretty unbeatable.

[worm_master]

I sold Aerondight I didn't think it was that good a sword.. Certainly in raw damage, my current sword was better, it took longer to kill things with Aerondight. I did keep the Tetnum steel sword though and the mask

[Anvos]

If Areondight wasn't outclassing everything you could get in melee dps for silver you weren't bothering to level it up. When its at full damage and even more if you get a full charge after that it way outclasses other things.

[worm_master]

Dude time doesn't lie Did I mention my Silver was a relic? besides I couldn't use it for almost 12 levels an was chopping things down....

[Anvos]

Aerondight is a relic as well so irrelevant, and if you didn't use it for 12 levels, it being underpowered is on you, but ironically that makes it easier to get it back to power, since at full charge it actually kills most monsters too quickly.

Only real reason not to use Aerondight as your silver sword is if you really want the 6 piece grandmaster set bonus for witcher gear.
