Pretty simple question. Which is better? Is the 5 extra armor or the reduces damage a better thing to have? What are the advantages of each?

Thanks in advance.

Theres been some discussion about this and from what I remember the best combination is a full suit of Plate with Knights Gloves or Boots.

Well to get the reduse damage thing you have to only wear 1 knight armor part, so I use 15k platemail and Knights Gloves with them.

There is no best. Lots of people use full Gladiator's with knights boots. The extra energy helps immensely.

There is a best.

Gladiators with knights boots unless you are hammer warrior in which case stoneskin gauntlets work for gloves.

Since you only need 1 piece of knights armor for full effect the answer is really obvious.
