No, its really not. And there are very few Fire/Air combos. Fusion armors are nice, but they only save you probably 100K gold. The OP has 22Million.
The best way to get Guardian or Clayplate is a stone armor and Spectral captain (water/spirit). you're going to end up with some swamp shamans and some other crap, but you can fuse the swamp shamans to rocfeather for another try.
That is if you can't get ahold of some 4 star monos.
As to someone saying I've been extremely lucky fusing combustion, I've done it multiple times.. it seems to pop up pretty often. Roc/Infernal can throw it (less often than say, Cloud king/Ruby Plate), and can also throw Guardian, Pyromancer, or mono 4 stars. Mono 4 stars are really useful for fusing because you can fix one element.

Wicked Wraith+ is 2335 points - 1003 attack, 1332 defense.
Bear+ is 2536 points - 1440 attack, 1096 defense.
Bear is better, but they're both pretty good. Though, the 5 monos were all in the 2500 range, Bear+ is 2500ish, and the Swamp armor that started today is also 2500+, so 2500 may be the new baseline.
If you're only going to do one, do the Bear+. You could level both and you'd have any easy route to 60 on the next Stone/Air boss. The WW+ is definitely a better time/EP/Gold investment than the Swamp+ though.

Flamestorm finery, Barbarian raiding gear, flame summoner shroud, Combustion, ruby platemail, cloudking, Wanderer's shroud.
That's not exactly very good odds for fusing combustion, and using two fusion boost armors kind of makes it more of a waste.
Fusing a spectral captain with a mono earth, would yield swamp shaman, Asura, Mountainvine, battle suit remnants, Clayplate, deep dragon, Hydromancer, Jackalope chaingarb, Vinewood carapace, Guardian, Hunter's garb, monk vestments, Bone harvester, eldritch keeper robes, Ethreal garments, Moontide, blackfrost, glacier, wave charmer, starsong.
Once again, that's 3 good armors out of a potential 19. Not really good odds either.Knights and Dragons iOS.

An Epic, 2 of the better 4 stars, and 4 or 5 other 4 stars. That means 50% of the time you either get what you want, or you get materials to try again. Those ARE good odds, and a lot better use of materials than spending 5000+ EP and a couple million gold on an armor you're going to want to replace as soon as you finish leveling it (swamp, infernal, etc).

Not exactly, assuming you use a legendary mono earth, ending up with a dual legendary would essentially be a waste if you ended up getting a dual legendary. Fusing wise, mono elements are almost always better than dual elements. Furthermore, You don't get materials to try again. You only get one armor back, and you would have to find another armor to fuse with that armor again. If you're trying for guardian or Clayplate, your best bet is always using two 4 star armors, preferably mono armors that can be fused.

Fusing 3* hoping to get a particular 4* is a really bad strategy. It'll chew up a lot of crafting time, fusion stones, and gold. The time would be better spent getting one or two of the Bigger 4 and then killing boss 43 for the epic boss+ armors, which have higher stats than Combustion or Guardian regular.

He's not hoping to get a particular one though, hes hoping to get something thats better than Swamp Shaman+, and thats really easy.
Also, I've fused both Guardian and Combustion in the last 2 days, and I've only gone through maybe 10 fusion stones. I'm guessing that fusion isn't a 1/<number of armors possible> probability. I'm guessing that things are weighted.

Well, as long as he reaches 15 on an epic boss, he would almost always be able to have a legendary to fuse.
Also, since he doesn't have 4 star armors, how would he get a mono earth then? Nemesis armors? A stonescale?
By the way, just because fusing may have gone somewhat good for you, doesn't mea it's an easy fuse. Just wanted to point that out.Knights and Dragons iOS.

If it's weighted, it makes using 3* an even worse choice. You'd have a greater chance of fusing a 2* armor than a 4* armor. Using the combination lists that deathexe posted above, you can see that getting those 2 particular legendaries in 10 fusion stones is pretty unlikely. With the advent of higher stat epic boss armor+, the armors after the Big 4 are just another piece of foundation. I would not base my foundation on some luck dictating whether or not I can fuse one of the half-decent legendary armors with a 3*. As I said before, unless boss stats increase again, one or two Bigger 4 armors are all you need to clear boss 43. I did it with only the Big 4(and a good guild), so it should be very doable with a decent friends list and some maxed 3* armors.

Which armor is better in arena: Featherblade Battlegear+ (Air, 1186A/1315D) or Aegis of the Dragon non+ (Earth/Air, 1160A/1321D) ? Explain why.

Only if the weighting is towards worse armors.
The vast majority of my 3star+3star fusions have given me 3 or 4 stars. Like 90%+
As I said before, unless boss stats increase again, one or two Bigger 4 armors are all you need to clear boss 43.
We'll have to agree to disagree on that.
Even some of the 'failures' you're listing are better than the bigger4 (like Blackfrost) (which has 300 points on Roc+, and is better stats wise than any of the bigger4) (or Sky Guardian).
The bigger4 made a lot of sense when we had 1500 point Big4, 1600 point boss armors, 1800-2000 point Bigger4, and 2200 point boss+ armors.
Now that we have 1900 point boss non-plus armors, and 2500 pt boss+ armors, and a whole bunch of fusable 2500 pt armors, the bigger 4 just aren't worth the point investment. They've got ****ty elemental combinations, and poor stats. There are way too many fusable armors that are better. Even fusing 3 starrs.
