Yeah the black IK set along with the golden aura looks really nice. However, I really hate that "skirt" that comes with all or most of the heavy armors.
Lac plate. I like the look of armored greaves and boots. With all the spikes and chain vest. Not only that then it gives you the gualets with the whole nine yards.
second I like the acrhon plate basicly because it it a chain mail with a sleave missing on the shield arm. Basicly it is saying you dont need protection on your left arm if you are using a sheild.
Wyrmhide or DusK+Botd Ghost Spear+Arreats- Looks like one of the 3 special gladiators:the one that was allowed no armor, but a helmet, spear, and a net. If u watch gladiator I believe you can see one in one of the first gladiator fight scenes. What even kooler is that it is historically accurate. I believe another also had a short sword so- dusk/wyrmhide+Arreats+Cruel Falcata+Phoenix Aegis
