Yep, was talking to a friend this morning and we were wondering how long it will be hot.... cause it's the same as the other armors, just a different skin....
If you're into the GCW, it's great.

I actually get a better condition with faction armor than other armor. Most of the other armors have some bone or hide that's required and brings down the stats.

on Bria the FP are stronger than the Composite for the Shock Trooper especially.

Its about 7500 faction to bio link. The armor has no better purpose than its counterparts. Recon is Recon etc. However if you want a more star wars like battle feeling more troopers in imperial armor is great. I know its not totally realistic but they should have given the same stats to the rebel uniforms. That way they could ress like rebels and still have the protection that would balance combat while looking like the movies.

are we sure theres no cap on regular armor. (padded, comp, etc?) i made a set of padded last night with battle cores i've been gettin 6300 across the board on in rebel faction armor. but the padded pieces came in at 6000 even across the board.. that even number kinda scared me...
i realize that resources are different between the 2 in final assembly, but it was that even number that puzzled me
any thoughts? and has anyone made armor other than factional andseenit go above 6000?
