Default Armor Questions?

First Off...I am an ex GW player. I played about 2 years ago or so, then I went to WoW, but I got burnt out with that game and now I'm back. When I went to WoW I gave my account to a friend, who later sold the account so I am starting somewhat from scratch and I was looking for a few pointers.

Currently I have a Lvl 9 W/Mo, who last night I got a run to Droknar's Forge to get some decent armor crafted for my toon. I remember before that I went with a combination of some Gladiator's Gear and the Knights boots. I looked over and compared all of the armor sets last night and I could not see a difference between any of the sets outside of the helmets, so rather then waste anymore time I just grabbed the full gladiators set, and figure I can replace things later as needed. The reason I got the gladiator's set is because I remember an energy boost coming from this set in the past. After I equipped the gear there was no change to my energy, and I was wondering what was going on with this particular gear.

If anyone could shed some light on this it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

bob

My, you have been gone...

Basically, A-Net changed how the armour system works - instead of buying armour with *inherent*, unchangeable bonuses, you now can choose what bonus you'd like yourself.

Check the Rune traders in towns - they sell Insignia that are equivalent to the bonuses that old armour had.

The 'old' Gladiator's armour used the Radiant insignia.

also, the knights bonus got "fixed" and isn't global anymore (and with that, a waste of space on any armorpart xD )
