brings down your base elemental protections, but there are no weapons out there that really use them, and if the armor is for PvE, then there are no creatures that use the elemental damages, so It's not a concern.

I would be wary only in PvP armor creation, as you may get some tricky BH(in example)use a gun with Acid damage, in which case its a rarity, but generally you need to focus on Energy and Kinetic damages.

i know when i use a kinetic layer my energy suffers and when using a energy layer the kinetic suffers.

so in my hunting armor i can use 4 layers.

if i use 2 energy layers and 2 kenetic layers will this bring the base of both up ?

or will they negate each other ??

Good question - never tried it - if u wanna increase both - u can just use Primus Layers you know.

I think they do even more negative than just negate eachother. If I remember correctly, layersgive slightly higher negatives than positives, so you will probably end up with a suit that has 100 less protection from both energy and kinetic.. not to mention the 7k of resources that are void.

I support the NGE - NOT!

Something I have been playing around with is layer combinations. 2 energy and 2 primus for Recon and 2 kinetic and 2 primus for assault.

The result of this ends up something like below and gives you good energy or kineticwithout compromising the opposite stat too much:

Recon

energy 7.8k

kinetic 5.5k

base 5.5k

Assault

Kinetic 7.8K

energy 5.5k

base 5.5k

Of course, since elemental dmg does not appear to be working at present then a full primus suit might be the best choice. But sadly in terms of what we sell best it will probably be that fully layered energy recon or fully layered kinetic assault with the 8K+ resist since many customers will buy it based on little knowledge and just see that 8k+ stat.
