Okay people, I've just reached Droknar's Forge and am in serious need of advice. I'm a Ranger primary with fire Ele secondary and I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on which armour type I should go for at this stage. Are there any combinations that serve a R/E better than others? And overall in the game, what makes the best combi from experience?

Any and all advice welcomed greatly, thanks.

Druids is better than every other option in all but the most specialized of builds. 7 Energy is better than +15 armor vs. a specific element, especially when you already have gobs of armor vs. elemental damage.

I prefer the Druids for the extra energy, rather than extra armor versus a specific element.

As a R/E, basically any armor or item with energy bonus is your best friend.

I agree. Druids is a good armour for higher energy bonus

Druids definantly, although I've been using drakescale for a long time now and find it to be very effective, especially on the last few missions.

Druids is the hands down best armor for most Rangers. Especially for you...

15k druids!

Haha.

But yea, drok druid is exact same stats. I personally only am wearing collector's b/c I haven't bought a single weapon/armor all game since I'm cheap even though I have about 50k. One of these days I'll buy the 15k druids.
