Armor types

I just got to Drok's last night (yay!) and cant decide which armor to go with...

Is the Wyvern armor better for the 85 armor compared to the others at 80 or should i go with the damage reduction with Knights armor?
Which is more effective at not getting me killed so easy?

Knights boots for the damage absorption
Helm to go with your weapon for the +1
Stonefist gauntlets if hammer user for the knockdown
Gladiators everywhere else for the energy

Thanks!

Or platemail, if you don't want to look naked ;P

well or just buy the 15k bra (glad) if you don't want exposed nip action
(yes I'm talking about the male warrior - it's cold in the shiverpeaks)

I kinda like showing off my nipples though...Makes me feel more manly some how

Thanks for the advice guys
