How useful is it for someone wearing medium armor?
Is the extra armor noticble or am i better of using Lightning form?

    If your looking for defense lightning form is definitely the way to go.

    Bound Armaments however adds a nice offensive bonus with 8% stamina and 11% heavy attack damage.

    What I don't understand lighting form a tier 2 skill and it gives Major Resolve and Ward.

    Bound Armament is a Tier 3 skill and only gives Minor Resolve, WTF?

    Because lighting form already gives major resolve. This way they can stack. Plus it's a toggle so you don't have to keep recasting it. You wouldn't be able to use two effects that grant major resolve.

    they can stack, but they have also each there different use and there is a time and place for all 3 combinations

    I use lighting form as example for my valkyn set, to proct meteor and for extra shock therapy

    Skills aren't really set up so T4 > T1. For example, nobody thinks Daedric Mines is better than Crystal Fragments ;) They appear to be set up in roughly the order you will need them when advancing through the content with a new character.

    Then it is funny that it is much harder to level Tier 4 skills then Tier 1s. So I will expect that Tier 4 skills do more.

    And before 1.6, I can stack armor bonus from Bound Armament and Combat Prayer, with the light Armor nerfs it could really help me now still able stack both the same time with my healer which is running around at the moment tissue paper armor.
