Author's Point of View:
If you are tank knight with a purpose to shield a party from mobs, you should choose Legendary Armor set undoubtedly. However, if you are a fan of PVP, reconsider your vulnerability in critical damage. Knight is the only class that you expect to stand against Rogue in this RPG. And Rogues are known for their critical damages, fast attacks and high dodge. Without high hit rating you’ll probably misses a lot when hitting a Rogue with high dodge and absorbing all its critical damage.
Recommendation:
Instead of worrying about high cost legendary set, save for Celestial Fragarach weapon. This will fill the gap between Slayer and Legendary Armor sets. Especially when Slayer Armor set is already completed and upgraded, I suggest you to stay for a while in this armor set while collecting resources for Celestial Fragarach. Then decide after you completed the weapon whether to shift armor or not. I am certain by the time you decide, crafting materials for Legendary Armor set will be cheaper.
