Sure, you're more durable, but you weigh a ton, you're loud as hell, and you can only use your fists and shield for killing. If you take any of the other weapons, you can still get armor at a later point and you're way more deadly.
Googled up the population and size of Atlanta, Georgia. Almost half a million people crammed into 134 square miles. Assuming most of them get zombified, there's no way you're gonna avoid contact after firing a gun. I'll pass.
The problem I see with Lucille is the barbed wire wrap. Wouldn't that get stuck in tissue and bone? That would be problematic.
I think I'd take my chances with the Katana. Stealthy kills, single strike take downs (katana strikes are mostly slices, not stabs, and the curve of the blade allows for easy removal from the body), multi purpose tool.

I still like the riot gear, even with all its drawbacks.Then again, it's useless if you get swarmed, as Governor got literally torn apart despite being in the suit.

In the Riot Gears defense, all these items are useless if you get swarmed. Come to think of it, the Riot Gear is probably the best way to go. You can easily find a weapon, it's much harder to find defensive items like this in the Walking Dead universe.
So if you selected the riot gear, that's all you get. So for example, if you stumbled upon a rifle laying on the ground, you couldn't use it.
