This is better then Elysian armplate ONE AC less then Elysian armplate but Wow look at the stat! Wis +7 compare with E.A of +4, HP of +50,E.A +45, mana +45 compare to E.A of +25. In addition it got +9DEX and SV fire of +10, and Recommended lvl of 45 NOT 50 like E.A. OH one more thing, check out the weight difference one is 5.0 the other is 0.8! Clearly we can see who is the winner here =)
