I have returned to LS after many years - Havent played since 2008 so everythings very new

I've done my first climb and started playing Samurai, but Im not really sure what kind of armor to use.
Im doing a melee build using ee dagger and dex charm, with a dex armor, but im not sure if I should go with ee armor instead?

Im doing some solo slashing mostly but also play in group sometimes.

Thanks in advance.

EE armors would be alot easier to solo with because you'd have to shrine alot less.

Going with EE Armors causes you to have higher defense that being said most everyone uses these during solo climbs.

Stat gear is mainly used for damage for groups so if your not the one tanking using the EE armor then you would use stat armor for more damage.

Group: EE armor if you are tanking, otherwise sit in back with stat armor for more DPS

Solo: Stat armor from level 1 to 35 then EE armor if the damage is NOT bearable.

Note: Personally I prefer Stat, but then I also heal using Salvation all the way.

EDIT: in some groups, and gear dependent, they may just want you to go pure Stat (DPS) ... i.e. they may only be whistling all the way to MQ, also depends on Event mods sometimes.
