I strongly recommend Vain or Eon (L) and Pulsar 8 in addition
Reasons:
Too many Cut in low maturty (Eon + Pulsar 8 for up to Devastator)
Too much Stab in high maturity, you will need Vain.
And there are also Impact, Penetration (in second type attack) and Acid (not big amount)
Now im in last stage of Rex missions, Eon is very good for me
I have 30 lvl evader and 167 HP. I die in very-very rare cases if i kill a mob, bigger than Devastator.
All other critical hits is usually under my HP level, and mobs up to Strong hit me not very often (~1/2 hits - misses).
Yes, armor like Eon(L) and Vain(L) is not cheap, but they are very long life, therefore 120-150% MU is not big MU for them.
You can also try Angel (L), Paradox (UL), but Paradox gives to you great protection only from one type of attack.
So in Paradox you can recieve up to 70-80 HP damage from Rex Strong (or 10 if it is right type of attack).
Bear, Boar or other armors, they are weak protection from Cut and Penetration, hunting in these armour Rex-s is very bad (IMO).
Better results you can do in Polaris, but they not have Impact damage protection, and you can recieve up to 50 damage from Rex Strong.
Well, you have to say what Evade lvl you are, what HP you have
It's not the same for everyone, a noob might die in Vain, an uber doesn't need armor
I do them in Bear and Gremlin and kill them fast, very very often I get a critical over my HP and die
So i say Bear it's the cheapest way if you are around 30 evader and have >150 HP and 31 paramedic to use UR125
to all the above posters:
Also if you believe huge armor decay is good for your loot you can try the armors others said
BTW, killing fast is also an important factor
Hello all. I need a little help for L armor on Rex, whats the cheapest and best way to hunt them? I was looking @ entropedia and is it Jarhead (L) + Pulsar Armour Plate 8 (L) ?
Which maturities do you plan to hunt?
As alternatives to Jarhead(L) you could consider Jaguar(L), Emine(L) and Serum(L).
