    heavy:
    pros- you barely take any dmg from monsters around your lvl and it has ok resistence to elements
    cons- well not sure if it affects your speed but i guess it does as my archer is doing matrix slow-mo speed (this is not lag and i know lag)

    light:
    pros- well i dont use light armor a lot so i dont know(sorry but im new too but prefer to keep phys def high so to not die fast)
    cons- well your phys def is low and you may die faster

    lol, heavy armor doesn't make you any slower dude.


    Heavy:
    Pros- highest physical defense
    Cons-lowest magical defense, has high requirements to wear (like high str)

    Light:
    Pros: good physical and magical defense, medium requirements
    Con: still only 'average" defense all around.

    Your str won't be high. You add 1 str per lvl, rest dex. It's what I do and at lvl 38 I don't have a problem doing a 3.6k dmg crit.

    dont even think of using heavy armor unless your planning on making your archer into a tank with low damage and accuracy. Light armor is highly reccommended because its balanced between heavy and mage armor.

    v.v i wear light armor since i'm a pure build. I put in 1str and 4 dex. but since i do that i can only wear light. Heavy armor does require you to put more then one str per lvl point. v.v mage armor is smexy but i have no clue about it.
