erm... ubese shirts are just like clothing shirts except one small difference, they take armor attachments. they dont take any dmg, and they wont lose condition like armor... the resists on them mean nothing

A Vulnability as far as i am aware means more chance of a hit from the named energy source. Ie Lighting Vuln means lightning will hurt you more.
I made a moderate sucess Ubese shirt which has no vulnabilites. A Good success shirt with cold and energy vuln and a greatly successful shirt which had Energy, Lightning and Cold vulnabilites.
It does not make sence that the better the armour the worse the effect of it. Have i misread these vulnabilites?

I guess another way to look at it is that it doesn't have any resists either. Without resists that AR1 has nothing to block.

I believe your thinking of the ubese jacket... the ubese shirt takes 30 units of steel, 20 units of iron, and 10 units of fiberplast (i should know i grinded 5k of these suckers)

Odd I thought the Ubese shirts said light armor and if they have no vulnerabilities will give you the light armor bonus if whoever is attacking you doesn't have light armor piercing. But its late and I could be wrong.

But that makes me wonder if its not shown ie if its not in vulnerablility list is it a vulnerability or would you get the AR1? Anyone ever test this out? Because I seen creatures where something was not listed in vulnerability and no resist was listed either. If I have time I may try it out.

It's been tested a few times, the shirt does not provide any protection. For the armor rating to take effect it needs to be linked to a resist. Ubese shirts lack resists thus there isn't anything for it to block.

Ya I tried it you're right I guess a 0% resist is no different than a vulnerablility. Though it would be nice if they have at least 1% resist just for AR1 rating.
