You can only put 2 layers into the segments.


My best padded is only 68% kinetic and 40-something base. Was a while since I made it and I don't remember how I experimented.


The standard trick to figure out how to craft is this:


  • Make one unlayered segment of your best resources

  • Craft a glove with that segment, use the best resources

  • Experiment with all points into Quality (base). You now have your "standard"

  • You easily see how your layers will improve your armor now

  • If you make say 2x 2%base/13%kinetic layers and put them into a segment you know that your base will improve 4% and the kinetic (4+2x13=30) 30%. (correct me someone If I'm wrong)

I think you need to put as much into special protection as possible on the layer and then experiment as much as you can into Quality on the segment and final assembly. Put the remaining exp points to lower encumbrance.


Hope that helps.

you need to max 2 kin layers in special (about 13% kin i get).. use ADV padded plates and max in base and the final compile max base also as it will push up special

Thanks for the help everyone, your advice makes sense...

I will try it. I noticed the kin protection was acting weird, cause it spending experimentations points in resistance would make it raise but only for about half way, after that only blast would raise..

Anyway thanks again for your time

hi Everyone,

I have been trying to craft some high Kinetic protections padded armors. I have very nice ressources now, but I did not manage to find the right layers/segments combination and experimentation choices to have it reach something close to 80%.
I might be doing something wrong, I am kinda new to AS and have limited experience. If one of you could give me the advice on how many layers to put in the segment, and how I choose to place the experimentation points into the layers then into the segment then into the armor piece itself, I'd be really grateful.
Thanks in Advance.

max the bottom row on both kinetic layers and put the rest into whatever you choose.


I hit 14%,I believe going off the top of my head. which gave me about a 29% adv padded seg.


I make 78% kinetic padded armor , special order only. I did hit 79% Kinetic one day but have not been able to since, I will tweak the layers and see what I can come up with.

If you are not a 12 point smith then become friends with one that is Pay them to make you the layers.

Get double amazing layers. I get 97% special (14% kinetic) 56% quality (3% base) for my padded layers.


The yavian wooly has been junk past year on intrepid so I know i got room to fill, but my segs come to 22% base 29% kinetic, Final is 94% quality (base) which gives me 51% base 80% kinetic, I cap the resources at 94% and with an amazing got 3 points to put into ham, 2 with out amazing.
