I don't see why anyone would want to delete this page. Some (if not most) people come here for much-needed information that can alter their gameplay experiences and skills. As such, they must know exactly what is to be expected before they stumble into a battle they know not how to win. Therefore, this brings me to my point: this page must be saved.
- I agree that there probably should be a page for a somewhat important boss like this one. However, whoever created the page made it sound too much like a very badly designed strategy guide, and we do not host guides or walkthroughs on this wiki.
- If someone wishes to take the time to revise the page, it should be written as an informational description of the enemy, including visual appearance and attributes, and appearances throughout the series (I distinctly remember Living Armors in Eternia and the Narikiri Dungeon games), but NOT including specifications on what party to choose, what arte branch (S/T) to choose for each character, and other things that apply to a single game. If someone is interested in these strategy suggestions, then I must direct that someone to sites like GameFAQs, where they have guides dedicated specifically to bosses and strategies to fight them, among other materials that may be just as useful.
- I could have made the necessary edits myself, but looking back at the page's history, I remember that I would have had to rewrite the page entirely to get rid of the conversational speech and make it sound more neutrally phrased, and it wouldn't have been worth the effort or interest when there are... here it is again, my usual words... more important things to focus on. I'd rather avoid monster and enemy pages completely, to allow us to focus instead on expanding the articles dedicated to plot-centric characters, terms, or locations - the very articles that need to be worked on but haven't received the attention they deserve.

Save This Page
There is no reason to delete this page. I'm an avid gamer and i read these pages almost like books, for story and lore. Its a source of time killing and fun for me please don't delete this page.
--Nebelium--
- Are you the same person who said the same thing on this very page? If you want this page to be saved, then contribute to it by adding legitimate information about the enemy and its role, and do NOT add anything about battle strategies or statistics. If you can't do that, then this page will stay exactly the way it is. Read my explanation above for more detail, because I don't feel like repeating myself.

Save it for all of us
I am a Tales fan and I love reading stuff even if it is optional bosses. And I don't know about many people but I do like to read these sections of the optional bosses to start a fanfiction of some sort. As a fanfict writer... I do like most people play the series get to know the characters main. Some minors by reading here. And yes I use Minor Characters for my own creation of adventure and such.
To know your enemy is to know yourself. Even though Living Armor doesn't have a huge role on the main story, it should still be enough to recognized it. Like how Abyssion is recognized and the Sword Dancers, this one should be recognized as well. Please don't throw it away for our curiosity.

- ...seeing how my previous comments have been ignored, I see no reason why I should continue to care. Stop wasting your time telling us you want to keep a page that has no info on it, and either spend that time to add to the page itself (following all guidelines mentioned previously), or simply move on.

You just give me a challenge
Fine I take that challenge. As soon as I get my information from playing the area, I would write it down without how to beat it and such. I don't think it would be hard for someone to do that. So if no one else cares I would write it. I will remind you it won't be long for me to write all of this down. SO see you all later and here goes luck for me to write what needs to be written. ^_^
Anyone else would like to help me out as well they can. As long as we keep it simple.

- Uh, I don't think it's a challenge, just an invitation. Nobody challenges anybody here. It's just, we all edit what we ourselves choose to edit, and some of us have our own goals and paces. Beside, the Living Armor has an intermediate role in the game's sidequest, since it is the guardian or something in Nifleheim. But I never managed to defeat him, and I hated the labyrinth, so I never bothered to try it again in later playrounds.
- But good luck with the editing, anyway.
