For the first time in a long while, I'm equipping a yellow item and slotting it.
Curative Padded Raiment of Shelter
84 Armor (4 better than current)
+16% Armor Protection (8% better)
26% Poison Resistance
+38% Energy Regeneration (3% worse)
We lose out on +24 Defensive ability while increasing our armor and shoring up one resistance a little bit. Combined Armor is now up to 469, a 33 point jump from the armor I had just purchased. Getting closer to respectable all the time, although our fights are better when my armor never comes into play
