The non-plus versions of recent boss armors are a little better than the "big 4" armors (AA+, crius+, hydra+, living flame+) when maxed, but MUCH more expensive to max. General wisdom is that they're not worth spending resources on. Instead, concentrate on filling your castle with training fields, getting your "big 4" to level 50, and getting to where you can farm materials for Swamp Shaman, Infernal, and Dark Prince armor. (The other level 70 map armors aren't as useful.)  Do farm as many levels of the epic boss as you can, though -- the rewards are good even ignoring the armor.
