I have just gotten my first dragonlod piece for druid and noticed.... Bone is actually better for druid at least.
Dragonlod armors giving us +5 points for skills is amazing.... HOWEVER it also raises the energy usage. Energy usage has been our problem after the update when the effects of sigils changed and Dragonlord armor is just going to make this problem worse. Opposed to that, beastbone armors actually raise the effects of skills, letting the skills remain at same level with same energy usage.
If the +5 to skills increased the effectiveness of a skill more than the bone armor, it was forgivable. High heal= high energy cost would have made sense. The problem is that ancient beastbone armors can compete with with it without the downside. IMO, end game quest armor should not even compete with other quest armors.. especially ones you can get at lower level without killing a major boss.
As I said, I only have one piece of armor so I can't judge it yet, but it seems to me, the beastbone armor is better.
