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.
