Sticky Armor Problem

Hi, I need a new armor for my Farmer Rt, the problem is when im not farming i wanna be a communing Rt.

My farmer build (Rt/Me) need the +armor while holding an item.
My Communingbuild need +armor while having spirits up.

is getting 2 different armors the only way? or could a mix be usefull?
or any of the other two armor types..

Not sure if this helps or this just makes me look stupid.

I have armor that improves defense per spirit... from the Island.

I've completed the game and I am caping the remaining elites I don't have. I don't die often, either.

My suggestion is wear the armor that you will use most often (farming or other). Since the increased defense is not global, I would not suggest mixing and matching.

Hope this helps.

The places you get hit the most are the chest and legs. Therefore by only swapping these two pieces of armor you can get the most benefit for the lowest cost. If you put the corresponding runes in these peices you may only really require to swap two peices.

I'm guessing your communing build is not a solo farmer and therefore will have other party members in the group (either hench or human). Therefore buy a full set of +armor(item), and chest and legs only of +armor (spirits).

Naturally you won't have the maximum effect this way, but you have the bonus on the area that is likely to get hit 62.5% of the time.

Arms 12.5%, Head 12.5%, Feet 12.5%, Legs 25.0%, Torso 37.5%
