why lvl big 4 armor?
So many people say to level the plus versions of big 4 but I don't understand why. I have 5 epic armors, all regular around level 50, not plus. I beat all levels, kill epics 15x to unlock armor with no friends. Are plus versions of big 4 better than regular epics? I

I wasn't saying they're terrible but still. And anyways, regular EB armors are better at a low level than any of the maxed big four are.
EDIT:
You need to get the regular Rare armor to level 15 before being able to craft the +.
You need 291 xp to get to level 15. Then you need 1,501 xp to get to level 50 (from level 1) for the +.
1,792 xp needed to max a big four armor.
You need 1,742 xp to get a Legendary to level 36.
Let's use Atlantean Avenger Armor in this example. It's combined total for the + is 1,523 (746/777).
Now let's use Nian Wargear (the most recent water/air EB). I'll use the stats at level 35 (because I could only find a level 35 picture on the wiki). The combined total at 35 is 1600 (684/916). Slightly lower attack, much higher defence. Then with Nian Wargear (Let's assume you can't get to level 43 to get EB+ anyways), you can still enhance it towards level 70, whereas with one of the Big Four, you're already maxed with slightly lower stats.
Maybe I was wrong with what I said about EB armor being better at a lower level (well it is slightly better), but if you can fuse an EB armor, it's definitely a better option than a Big Four armor.
If you can't beat the EB 15 times, than yeah, the Big Four is a better option.
Idk why I decided to do this but yeyeye.Last edited by Sent; 02-15-2014 at 11:02 AM.

But what are your knights wearing until you can reliably kill bosses x15? And even then it takes a couple of weeks to get an EB armor for every knight let alone max them. I guess every one will end up just maxing all "big 4" anyway . Also as backup armors when you want a certain element.

Hi,
I'm a new player at level 35 and I'm working to max big 4 (1 at 50 e other 3 at 25) and now i think I will able to kill EB 15 times for first time (I have very few high level friend...).
I understand i should first use EB in place of big 4 and then? I'm a bit confused...I read i should work on bigger 4 but now i read here they are outdated, so? I have jump bigger, craft some EB armor and then just start fusing and hoping in a good luck?
Please I need some hints...
Thank you
Max

Thank you for answer.
And after EB? I should try fusion with 2+ gold stars armor? I'm not spending so I'm wondering if I have just to count on fusion or something else...

Just fuse whatever. Just make sure you fuse two armors of the same rarity (e.g. Two silver stars, two 3*, etc).
I'd save all 3* and spare 4* until you have a lot of them and just have a mass fusing session. Fuse all the 3* with each other, then fuse all the 4* with each other. Make sure you fuse armors together that'll make an epic. Most combinations should, but don't go for Moontide.
Remember:
Bronze* + Bronze* = 1*
Silver* + Silver* = 1*/2*
1* + 1* = 1*/2*/3*
2* + 2* = 1*/2*/3*/4*
3* + 3* = 2*/3*/4*/5*
4* + 4* = 3*/4*/5*
Don't fuse 5* unless you have a lot of multiples lolno

Worst epic. It's basically a Legendary+. Just wait until the next Spirit/Water EB is released, and the + version of that will probably be as good or better.
You can go for it though. It's all up to you.
EDIT: I'm just saying that you can save your spirit armors for Forgestone and Beastmaster, and save your water armors for Northerner's, Arborsteel, and Maelstrom.Last edited by Sent; 02-15-2014 at 05:21 PM.

EB+ armor are beyond my possibilities and will be so for muuuuuch time...
I still haven't managed to kill 15 times EB so i see 43 (the number of kill i think you need for + version) very very far...
With big four maxed i could kill EB at least for normal version? I don't have many high level friends and so i have to count on my knights...

The powerful friends are very, very important. I would not have achieved my Level 43 EB without them.
