In PVE, heavy armor mages aren't optimal, except for tanks.

In PVP, there are lots of people who wear 2 heavy and 5 light. If you want the heavy for the aesthetics, you can simply equip the heavy on the chestpiece and the helm/shoulders. This will give you a pretty "heavy" appearance.

Hmmm... y'know this is kinda brilliant. lol But then yes, going this route WOULD make it simply a matter of aesthetics. For purely RP reasons I want this particular mage to be able to kick some arse with swords and I am still wondering if that's even a remote possibility.

the pelinial set ( not sure of name or spelling ) in the northwest section of the gold coast -- 5 pieces makes your spell damage or weapon damage both go to the highest number of the two. a friend just started using this heavy set up in pvp and says it is wrecking people.

That's really cool just because. I may check that out just for the fun of it! I'm an altoholic who likes all my characters to at least "feel" different from each other even if they are of the same class. Since I only do dungeons and end game on my mains I can goof with the alts and see what happens. So thanks!

In PvP, heavy armor mDKs can be awesome in small group.

HA Sorcerer for PvP is very viable.
HA Sorcerer for PvE tanking is also viable.
HA Sorcerer PvE damage dealer? Just NO.

Well this has been a fun little blast from the past, but you all know how we feel about necromancy around here!
