Though I did just sell the crests, if I need some power armour I'd probably buy a set of Malevolent at some point, for bossing.
My Tetsu set does me good for most things though. ^^

Idk about your other bossing, but IMO using the unrefined anima cores for GWD2 bosses (other than Telos and maybe Greg, I'vent done enough Greg to say though) is better than ports armor
can still heal enough with vampyrism aura + resonance (or soul split for Twin Furies), extra damage and no degrade costs.

I'd buy a set but I don't wanna spend the ~54M on it right now
Even though my Tetsu set does degrade and needs repaired, it basically costs 2.1m for me to repair the full set from 0%.
Tetsu lasts 12 hours minimum but usually lasts longer than that, Wiki stating about 20 hours from intense combat.
so ~54M/2.1m is about 25/26 uses of Tetsu armour. 25 times 12 = 300 hours minimum, or 25 x 20 = 500 hours of intense combat. or going off my average of 24 Vindicta kills an hour, 12,000 Vindictas.
More than enough for my current goal fighting Vindicta.
Though I know I omitted being able to sell the anima core afterwards but with the way Crest of Zaros has been dropping by GE Graph I don't feel like buying it atm.

And I am going to be selling that Zaros Anima Core set I bought.
I was not used to the lower defence and life points and ended up dying this run.
Sorry
it works for magic though, probably since you don't reduce defense with something like berserk.
