What type of animal fur did the vikings use for armor?

Vikings often used the fur of animals like bears, wolves, and seals for armor. The thick and durable nature of these furs provided some insulation and protection during battles. Additionally, they might have layered the fur with leather or other materials to enhance its effectiveness. However, fur armor was more commonly used for warmth and mobility rather than as a primary form of protection against weapons.

Did vikings wear armour?

Vikings tended to wear Chainmail Armor and often carred a large wooden shieldFor the most part, very little. Iron was expensive. The common image of a viking decked out in armor with a huge sword and axe is quite wrong. If they had a metal helmet they were lucky. Usually they just wore furs and leather, armed with a spear (deadly weapon that uses very little Iron), and a wooden shield.The types of metal armor that -was- available at the time included studded leather, ringmail and chianmail. Only princes were able to afford those, though.

What is better Tier 10 armor or Season 8 armor?

That would depend on what purpose you use it for. Tier 10 armor is for PvE and Season 8 armor is for PvP. If you use PvE armor in PvP you will die very quickly, and if you use PvP armor in raids you will not be very effective. Stick to the armor type that matches the content you play in. If you "cross-dress" armor, consider it one season or tier lower for easy math. For instance, T10 armor would be about equivalent to Season 7 armor in PvP.
