Something to consider: Ghost has significantly lower durability than Vigilante. It isn't just the plates making the Vigi decay less; it's also the relatively poor durability of Ghost. While the decay should still be less on plated armor if the armors have the same durability, it's worth noting that these two armor sets are not equal.Yes, the puny test was silly, but it proved a point. When you're out hunting big mobs, and you let a lil exa or something chew you, it costs a bit more than you think.
Meanwhile, I did test #2:
UNplated ghost vs vigi+5B on bery prowler. Both armors give 19 impact protection.
Unfortunately, the bery got 11 hits on the vigi+5B, however. here's the repair bills:
Unplated ghost
vigi+5B
Due to the extra 1 hit, and factoring in whatever micro-pec of dmg, I'm willing to consider these the exact same cost, or as close enough to matter.
and yes, I completely agree having multi-plates to choose from increases your options. My collection includes 2A, 5A, 5B, 6A & 6B.
But having a collection is only useful if you are not a long-term camper. Then of course you get the best set you can for your situation, and sell the rest for ammo ped.
