I can understand wanting to get Lambent armor as soon as you can.
Personally though I do not plan on buying any of the components (except for
the gems of course), why? Well nearly all the equipment I have, I have
acquired by trading, purchasing, or as gifts from friends. For Lambent I
want the satisfaction of killing and looting these items myself. If it
takes me long longer then other folks so be it, but it's just what I feel is
the right way to go.

As for prices on some of the items, I would guess for the first few weeks
the looting rights may be expensive. Also some of the items are not bad in
there own right (most seem to be at least plate AC and some have small
bonus). If you want to buy you way want to wait a week or two for the
market to saturate. My guess may be in the 50 to 200 plat range depending on
the item. Also remember that after 35th lvl or so most players stop caring
about how much plat they have unless they are heavy into trade skills.

Good luck!
