I'm a little confused on this topic concerning which version has which armor sets and such. I understand that the original divinity II had some sort of dlc armors for 360 and pc and had 2 versions in some sets. Also there is the Rivellon guards set bonus for steam pc version.

I got the steam version of dks yesterday (and bought my gf a copy also...off topic lol) and I understand it comes with 3 new exclusive sets. Does this version also include all the dlc from original game (both version sets) and also the original D2 steam set?

I tried searching around on the forums a bit, and though I saw some armor topics, I couldn't find a specific answer to this question. Sorry if I missed it somehow!

Dragon Wizard:

Dragon Wizard Cuirass: was given after mind reading the tree that likes to zap people

I'd like to close by quoting Bellegar's famous last rhyme:

The wench must have been a hell-spawned banshee!"

I already saw that in the other topic and thanks for posting that again, but it is not really what I am asking. I know that the names of the sets already, but I saw in the original release there were two (2) versions of a particular set (for example I think one set of the same name had a different weapon than the first version). That is the part I am mostly inquiring about (if both versions of a particular set are in DKS, either randomly chosen for each playthrough or whatever).

Hopefully that clarifies the question a little bit more smile

I still think I answered your question. Because what's listed above is what you get; no more no less wink

p.s. ED armour sets are water under the bridge since you have the DKS now!

Alrighty I think I understand where you are coming from now smile It is a shame the other versions didn't translate over to the new version, but hey we get 3 new steam armors instead :P

Thanks again for posting the Armour list. Bookmarked for quick future reference!

I never understood what so big deal about the armor sets...
well i'm a warrior and i tried to use the viper set and its relly bad compared to using individual unique items, like dragon curiass, helm of arben, rhode's legging, and lord lavos gloves (well the gloves i agree that not that good but all the others much better than the viper set together)...

about the other sets i dont know - never tried archer and mage...

It doesn't matter what armor you use, really. I just finished FoV wearing the Scorpion set and no helmet, just because it looked the best. Most of the good stuff comes from enchants, anyway. In my opinion, just wear what looks the coolest and enchant it to hell.

If your melee use the Annihilator armor...best lvl 15 armor in the game!

There are 3 sets and each is tailored for one of each class...melee..ranger..mage.

And each rock..!!! Almost feel like I'm cheating now.

Pick a set when you start and sell the other two..great way to make some early money.

Of course by the time you hit lvl 20 you find something better...but for at least 5 levels your well protected and the stat bonuses wearing the complete set really add up !


People say I'm crazy..but the voices in my head say I'm just fine.
