Crafting the armor appearance adds 400 to the resists. Taking Core 1 (7774), and adding 400 you should get 8174. But you got 8111. This implies you've hit a cap on the resists, so a better core won't improve them.

Ja. Ich verstehe.
Yes, I understand now. Because my Energy layers are 92.6, I can only go to 8111 on the final combine. I need better energy layers to make better armor.
Exactly, you are adding 12 layers to an advanced core. Thats 12 x 92.6 = 1111 energy layer bonus. I can see you are reaching the unlayered cap with you other resources so your unlayered energy protection is 7000 with those segment and core resources. These are exactly the same segment and core resources you were using in the previous thread (freedomwarriors thread) right?
Add 1111 to 7000 and you get 8111. It does not matter if you had perfect segment and core resources, you will only get 8111 with these energy layers. Hence, changing to a better fiberplast in your segments does not matter as you are already reaching the cap and is frankly a waste.
This is explained in that layer/seg/core maths thread I put together a few pages down.
