It always depends on the choice of the opponent. If the damage caused by the opponents weapon is less than or equal to 80 ({50,80}) choose the yellow armour, for the other available choices ({100,150}) choose the green armour to minimize damage per attack.
Regarding the choice of weapon, always choose green to inflict maximum damage in a given amount of time.
So the best strategy is to go with a yellow armour and green weapon if one has no prior knowledge.
Talent is mostly a result of hard work, passion and sheer dumb luck. It's more nurture than nature (genes). People who are called born-geniuses more often than not had better access to facilities at the right age while their neural connections were still forming. (~90%)
Update: OK. It seems I've to substantiate. Take the case of Barrack Obama. Nobody would've expected a black guy to become the US President 50 years ago. Or take the case of Bill Gates, Bill Joy or Steve Jobs. They just happened to have the right kind of technological exposure at an early age and were ready when the technology boom arrived. Or take the case of mathematicians like Fibonacci, Cardano, the Bernoulli brothers. They were smart. But there were other smart mathematicians as well. What separates them is the passion and the hard work and the time when they lived and did the work. A century earlier, they would've died in obscurity after being tried and tortured for blasphemy. Take Mozart. He didn't start making beautiful original music until he was twenty-one by when he had enough musical exposure that there was no one to match him. Take Darwin and think what he would have become if he hadn't boarded the Beagle. He would have been some pastor studying bugs and would've died in obscurity.
In short a genius is made not born. I'm not denying that good genes would help you with memory and learning, but it takes more than genes to be a genius.
