Yeah unfortunatley not much on those. The segments are very low, wont produce much for resists. the scales maybe someboody will throw you 1k for if they want to enhance some padded.
sorry man
sorry man

The quick answer on the segments is, smiths can make them to 35%. Once you have 35%+ segments you have good ones.

/agree
although personally im saving 25% upwards.. they make reasonable base comp.. with superb condition and very low encumberence. when combined with some even standard ns shards the ham is much lighter than crafted comp and the conditon much higher.
the scales at 4% are bazaar stuff, but not all scales are useless. over 10% on any stat will enable a decent smith to hit 80% on said stat and using stun plates you can make some pretty decent (although heavy) comp. they are also good for ris imo especially without the interwoven schem, it makes the most wearable ris in my opinion, as with stun plates you can remove all the vulnerabilities, with the exception of ls obviously. the acid protection however will only be the same as the scale itself.. but 9% or w/e is better than none right.. for example a guy in my guild has a suit made like this and as he regualrly hunts gdk (not in theris lol)and grabs some woolie bones, he can actually go out and wear his ris to fight in. if he does break it . its a few easily looted scales and hes got another...ye ok i have a suit at 78% base 80% kin with low ham..(unsliced) but i dare not wear it.. the materials i used make me scared of a slight stat drop lol!! i think most ris owners will identify with this.. you get the uber armor and you dare not wear it lol.. maybe 9 adks hmmmm

I will second the 25% and up aren't worthless, you can get some nice armor from them. But you can't use NS Shards with them

I've looking for some 90% or higher Kinetic, if anybody has any, please contact in game on Bloodfin.
Have many Armor Segments and Scales, and the consensus is:
* Armor Segments: Must be greater than 35% to be useful for 90% Kinetic(I know the slice means everything).
HOWEVER: Are the scales useful at all for producing fine 90% Kinetic?
Thanks

No, scales move all resists into special which is capped at 80% and can't be sliced.
Good luck finding the "or higher" part of 90% or higher
I bet those pieces are more rare than Mandalorian at this point in the game. Current pieces are capped at 90% on the slice so it's no longer possible to get higher.
Hmmm, wouldn't an ADK look good on one of those 100% resists pieces now?

Thanks Ox,
All the scales to the bit bucket.
And yes, wish I would have saved that 93% armor.
