Made a suit of the new Ithorian Guardian Armor last night and noticed that it came out with two Special Protections on it: Blast and Kinetic. Don't know if anyone else has experienced this, but after speaking with a more experienced smith on Bloodfin, even he was surprised at that discovery. I threw together some regular Chitin Armor Segs and tossed em into the pieces. I'll get some screens of it later when I get ingame. Just struck me as odd, since Chitin only has a Special Protection to Kinetic.
Anyone else come across this? I'll be testing the Defender and Sentinal to see if I can get some other strange results as well as seeing if I can duplicate my results on the Guardian.

Nope. I didn't add any enhancements into the armor. Just made basic Chitin segs.

I haven't tried with crafted chitin segments yet, but...
Obviously something is different between "Chitin" and "Guardian", because...
While using(10% Base Eff) "Reinforced Kliknik" Segments:
(Max experimentation into special...residual into base)
"Chitin" Results...
Special:
Kinetic - 38%
Base:
Acid - 26%
Blast - 26%
Energy - 26%
"Guardian" Results...
Special:
Blast - 25%
Kinetic - 38%
Base:
Cold - 26%
Electricity - 26%
Energy - 26%
FYI - At least with base "Reinforced Kliknik" Segments, Blast was fixed at 25%...I was not able to raise it with points into base. If indeed you get a blast special when using normal chitin segments, are you able to raise it through experimentation?

It could be a bug, or we could be seeing the first parts of the armor revamp for the combat balance.
