I don't know if the paladin and warlock armours have any complex animations to them but it should be possible to make custom armour sets out of them. Since they only have 3 pieces to them since gloves&chest and legs&boots are stuck together it should be possible to make 5 new pieces of equipment, not give the gloves and the boots any mesh or model and give the existing paladin and warlock armour visuals to the head, chest and legs.
