im a 3.3 HB fury. i currently have dragonflight armor and a negation. is relic truly better? the grind is horrible and i will only keep it at teir 1. but i lose armor pen and a little crit if i switch. yes an artifact switch could work but the only good one comes from MSP.
my other question is do i keep my negation? i had a soulforged but i don't like the idea of coming back just go to right back down. my negation is at lesser so i understand it's problem. but is it worth it to level up?
i currently sit at 3rd in damage in MSVA (still upgrading weapons), so I'm doing something right. but gong into mod 11b (on xbox) i want to know where to go from here on my quest to 4k (or post update equivalent )

bluey22#7852, My SW was wearing full DF until recently when I changed the boots for Gladiator's Feted Greaves. DF is going to remain a solid choice, but don't forget about (mod11.5) Company gear. I already had the DF and didn't investigate it, but it has the same IL as DF. Which one is best depends on the stats the piece has. Company gear is also much cheaper and easier to acquire.
The pieces to consider would probably be Company, Dragonflight, Mysterious Merchant, Dungeon Chase items. (easiest to hardest, barring good RNG) Those will serve until we see what new options are available, some of which we already know will be available from both AD and Trade Bar vendors. If lanolin is for sale, relic becomes a lot less costly so that will be an option as well."We have always been at war with Dread Vault" ~ Little Brother5

If you did choose to restore pieces, at least vivify it as that will make it much better permanently.
> YMMV but right now is a very bad time to switch to relic armor, especially for PC but consoles eventually. Mod 12 is scheduled for the end of July and relic armor will be available for seals. More importantly, 'reagents' for its restoration will be as well. That probably means lanolin and you would be throwing a lot of AD and/or time away by restoring the armor now - even if you get a lucky drop for the piece.

You are kidding right? This can't be. I litterly spent millions of AD because Lanolin farm is horrible.
"It’s been almost a year since the introduction of relic armor; starting in Module 12 unrestored relic armor and restoration reagents will be available for purchase with seals of the protector."
Check it out yourself but for restoration agents, the most likely guess would include lanolin. We won't know until it hits Preview, but the safe bet is to avoid buying lanolin for AD at the moment. I recently restored some pieces, which kind of stings...
