You don't have Factions? The Core elementalist armors aren't that special since they are all extra AL vs elemental damage + extra AL vs some specific (Fire/Cold/Lightning/Earth) damage.

Whereas the new Factions armor add choises of +10AL when Enchanted, +10AL vs Physical and the HP armor.

For Prophecies-only char I'd say the armor choise doesn't matter all that much. But suppose I'd go with Pyromancer's, since fire is quite common in certain areas.

For linked account, I'd say go to Kaineng, and craft some Tempest's armor or Archmage's. Just my opinion.

if u have access to cantha the best armour in my view is arcmages, the plus health bonus is really usefull.
whcih allows u 2 be able to stick on 2 sup runes, sup fire and sup enrgy storage for example and not lose to much health.
if u don't have ascces to arcmages, it really doesn't mater what armour u get.
but i recomend aeromancer.

Depends a bit on build, but I'd go with something like Tempest's chest and legs for that +10AL when enchanted bonus, and what little HP bonus getting Archmage's hands and boots give.

Think I have full Tempest's armor on my ele tho, ohwell.

Well you'll have Fire Attunement on most of the time so... Tempest's armor ftw.

It's all style. Same armor, difference looks.

I have boots, gloves and chest from one crafter, and the leggings are from another.
