as i've been hunting these orcs with my bard at lvl 35, ry'gorr armor has comparable stats to lambent. looks as if they're about equal, so if you don't feel like doing lambent quests, this stuff is nice if you wanna hunt orcs.
i traded my darkmail gauntlets for these, i think it was an even trade since i am a warrior and i don't even need the +50 mana that the gaunts gave me, but all the stats on these helped me out a lot

you can get better items cheaper nowadays. i play a bard and druid. my bard got his lambent guants which are 12 ac +5DEX and +1CHA. I'd take the 5 dex over the 2 str any day. same AC and CHA, and you can get them for 400-500pp on rodcet nife. other class-specific items are better (i.e. crafted, etc.)
these are NOT better than the iksar quest trooper scale armor. trooper scale are 11ac, 5str, and 2dex... i would sacrefice 1ac, and 1cha and 5hp for 3str. we iksar need every bit of str we can get our scaly hands on!

Another good choice if you're lucky enough are gaunts of the black ( ac 15 str 4 wis 3 ), all plate classes, all races ( so an Iksar SK could wear them )... heck, your probably camping the fort anyway for the ry'gorr armor, and the black drop in the same location... so you may luck into a pair.
Yes,.... But, Firbrand sometimes seems very reluctant to spawn. I was in a guild gruop camping the fort, and we got almost a full set of Ry'Gorr armor (no mail, since that drops off chief), and killed the blacksmith every time he popped. Not one firbrand, and I was hoping to get a dark ember :(
Gauntlets of the black are very nice, but they are rare, compared to Ry'Gorr gloves, and much more expensive to buy.
