Im not talking about light saber resist,., im talking about using any other layer other than energy Locking the special protection to the layer.. Tantle would be soo much better if you could change the layers, kinetic, stun, acid, heat. this armor next to chitin is my favorite armor.. i would love to see the special resistance working correctly like every other armor,, Well there does seam to be a problem with mabari in this respect as well.. not layers but special resistance seams buggy, the legs and top have different speicals that i can deal with, but one doesnt raise..

Any word on this?

Are you refering to the way the special is bumped by the base like in padded and composite?

Now that ithy has been fixed all further armor fixes will be coming in the CU which means I am not allowed to say if they will or will not be fixed without a dev giving me outright permision.

Bahh what a teaser that is..

But ill just read between the lines and take that all further armor fixes are in the CR.. and hope tantel is one of them..

To answere the other guys Q, the way tantel is bugged is this.

Normally when you add a layer to armor, like say ubese or padded that protection type gets bumped into the special protection catagory and then when you exp on it you now use speical protection to increase that layers effectiveness.

Now if you are adding a protection type that is not already covered in the noraml armor like say heat in padded. That armor will now have a locked heat protection or what ever the layer is,, say 10% for this soo your padded would look like

Normal

blast 25%

Base at 30%

energy,

kin

electric

cold

layered with kin

speical

kin 50%

blast 25%

base 30%

energy,

electric

cold

Now with heat layer added

blast 25% special

heat 10%

base 30%

kin,

energy

elecitic

cold

When any protection the armor normally has in base will raise when experiminted on with a layer.. which is how you can get 50% energy in ubese, or 80% kin or blast, or energy in padded

Tantel is broken

When you add any other layer other than energy it locks the layer to what ever the layer is,, soo if you put in a 10% stun it stays 10%.. soo basically you make it with energy layer, high base, then max base and then hope for effective slice.. to raise base up to what it would normally be,, but making high energy/kin or stun/energy in tantel would be a great armor,, get about 40% or maybe as high as 50% in both with low encum.
