Zos goofed at launch by having three armor types. Should have been two, heavy and light. Both should have nothing to do with skill cost reduction or regens, have nothing to do with potential damage output, and only have to do with how your character defends.

Does he block alot? Or just want to outright mitigate damage? Heavy armor. You outright mitigate all damage more, be able to block more, but be slightly slower moving and not be able to sprint as long or dodge roll as much

Does she sneak alot? Sprint more? Dodge roll? Light armor. You'll be able to dodge roll much more, sprint faster and longer and move over all slightly faster, while having zero extra mitigation passives.

Every set should also drop in both weights. Your cost reductions and recoveries now come from other means, whether it be champion system, heavy attacks or class passives. The damage bonuses are now simply lost and unrecoverable

agreed..
