Because it's agile? I don't think there's any way that leather will work better than the high PMI of that kevlar. Even the attack speed roll isn't very high and it doesn't have strength PAB. I would keep forging the PMI of that kevlar if I were you. I've seen shade with almost as high of base PMI as that leather, and shade comes with more more evade, attack power, attack accuracy, etc.
Maybe you're right, however, many stats that leather piece has got are legendary class. Fire mitigation is pretty good as well since dragonkins are arguably by now my worst enemies.
