right now im wearing the scared tortoise legging and the robe of serpent lord. So my lv8 armor will match the lv8 legging if I choose the legging as my reward; while the belt gives more phy res tho. My current phy def is abt 850 after buff and 520 before buff...b:surrender

    arcane armor wearers usually wear physical defense belts and necklaces, precisely to improve their otherwise very weak physical defense. so an ornament that'd increase that for you would be a good thing --- unless your current leg armor is very much worse than the divine order one.

    ultimately, it's up to you. but: when you take damage and lose HP, what sorts of attacks is it usually that's doing the hurting? increase your defenses against that.

    To put Lenie's response another way:

    You're going to be wearing arcane armor anyway (most likely), and the Maxiskirt is a very good choice for that (my only qualm with it is that it doesn't match the Cosmos set >:[ ).

    The belt is a good all-around choice for any character, really. It is, admittedly, hard to find a pdef belt in that level range that's as good as Imperial Edict.

    Personally, I had the same choice as you on my Arch-server cleric recently, and I went with the Maxiskirt. But in retrospect, maybe I should've chosen the belt because it would've lasted longer for that character, since I plan to swap out for Dark Pants of Hades at 70, anyway. :P

    In the end, both are good choices and you wouldn't go wrong picking either of them. :)

    Yes, I'm still a stubborn holdout in favor of the old game. Haters gonna hate. ;]
