Basilisk trousers are better than Black Trousers, but the Basilisk coat is little better than Red Coat. Making a comparison between Basilisk Coat and Black Coat, your better status is +5 archery accuracy and 2 Archery strength, all defenses are worst, is it correct?
#Basilisk Coat!
pseudo wren
surreal current
the strength tends to be what people want
i think i remember this being brought up before and it being correct, but not 100% on that

What I believe you are talking about is the higher offensive stats and lower defensive right? If so the game is designed for balance and not an overkill so you can't have the best of both styles. It's like the necro hat vs naga crown. The crown is favored for mage offense but lower defenses than necro hat.
