Thread: Armor Rating
So anyways, Ive searched through pretty much efery armro available on Starsider, to find that every single armor is rating one. At one point someone told me this was a fix, that all armor is at rating one. As you know vs a rating 1 weapon, a rating one armor will absorb 50 % + whatever is on the armor. But however the Laser Rifle is Rating 2, and T21 is rating 3. And personally, I would like a defense vs that.
weapon rating 2 vs armor rating 1, gives the weapon 100 %, but minus what ever is on the armor.
Weapon rating 3 vs Armor 1, gives around150 percent minus whatever is on the armor.
Wich is why im wondering if there was any Armor Rating 2 or 3 armor? As I understand ST armor is rating 2. But is there any player made armor able of reaching higher then 1? Does it have to di with experimenting, or was it fixed so you can only make 1.
So currently Im assuming that they disabled Armor Rating 2 and 3 for palyer crafters, as I heard. TO this is a bad thing, becuase with a T21, Ill be doing 145 percent dmg to anyone with AR 1. Thats over 2000 mind dmg.
another bug ... composte armor is light armor?.... how does that stack vs some weapons that have an armor rating of 3 ?
it gets wrecked like every other armor. base + 25% + 25% - resist = total damage taken.
Its not a bug all player crafted armor is intentionally ar: 1. ALL.
