hello all, just an AS hobbist here and im about to craft my first health enhanced suit. i just want to make sure i have it planned out correctly - please verify my math or give me some adivice if there is an easier way to do this.


ill be making Adv Battle 9 pc set - i have several stacks of +15 health enhancers.



for the chest: im using a stack of 13 enhancers.
1 for the schem to make 12 factory segs, then 3 of these segs to make a schem for 3 factory cores.



for the helmet: im using 1 stack of 10 enhancers.
1 for the schem to make 9 factory segs, then 3 of these segs to make a schem for 2 factory cores.



leggings same as helmet.



bracers/biceps: ill use singles/leftovers to make 12 segs by hand, then 3 of these segs to make each core.



this should give me +315 when completed, am i on the right track here?


thanks in advance for your comments.

I am not an armorsmith but from what my local AS told me, 350 is max per set. 1 enhancer persegment but max of +50 max per core. Im sure i have it jacked up.



Question for you, where you getting +15 health drops? And is there better? Im finding +10s on Kimogillas.

Would be much easier to take 3 strings of which have no fewer than 9 idents to the set.


Make a seg schem for each one and run them in a factory. This will leave you with no fewer than 3 sets of 8 identicle enhanced segments.


Take and make an adv core schematic using one of each of those 3 strings instead of using the bigs strings in one piece alone. By using the 3 different sets you dont waste as many enhancers in the schematics.

The way you have it, you are wasting4 enhancers out of each string.


Using a minimum of nine enhancers, you will end up with the 7 cores you need to make the legs, chest and helm.


If possible, always use the strings with fewest idents in them for the arm pieces as these can be completely hand made from start to finish.

im new to using the health buffs, but i have a few questions i might ask if someone can answer.


i am useing +20 NS frags or shards


and a feathered enhancment +20 health.


so does all this stuff stack ???


chest plate = 3 cores with +20 in and a Feathered enhancment = 80

helmet = 2 cores +20 w/feathered = 60

Leggins = 2 cores +20 w/feathered = 60

L.bicep = 1 core +20 w/feathered = 40


R.bicep = 1 core +20 w/feathered = 40

L.Bracer 1 core + 20 w/feathered = 40


L.Bracer 1 core + 20 w/feathered = 40


add it all up thats = +360


so do 3 + 20 cores stack to 60 or 3 cores don't stack the health buff and only get +20


or is this the way it would come out...



chest plate = 3 cores with +20 in and a Feathered enhancment = 40

helmet = 2 cores +20 w/feathered = 40

Leggins = 2 cores +20 w/feathered = 40

L.bicep = 1 core +20 w/feathered = 40


R.bicep = 1 core +20 w/feathered = 40

L.Bracer 1 core + 20 w/feathered = 40


L.Bracer 1 core + 20 w/feathered = 40


add it all up thats = +280


if sow how do you get a 350 suit ??


then there is the option where core max or piece of armor max = +50



chest plate = 3 cores with +50 in and a Feathered enhancment = 70

helmet = 2 cores +40 w/feathered = 60

Leggins = 2 cores +40 w/feathered = 60

L.bicep = 1 core +20 w/feathered = 40


R.bicep = 1 core +20 w/feathered = 40

L.Bracer 1 core + 20 w/feathered = 40


L.Bracer 1 core + 20 w/feathered = 40


this combo gives me the + 350


stating 50 max per peice of armor + the Feathered enhancment


for effenicy sake i could use some +15 enhancments as not to be wastefull

Scout,


The segments stack, but when you have identical cores only one count. An advanced core takes 3 segments so if you use +20 health enhancers you should in theory reach +60 health. BUT, the max health bonus you can get on each appearance (armor piece) is +50, so it would actually be a waste of enhancers.


In your case it seems that you are only enhancing one segment, leaving the 2 others unenhanced. This is fine but you will not reach the cap this way. You middle calculation is correct (giving you a total of +280).


What you can do is to make one run of segments with+10 enhancers, one run of segments with +20 enhancers and one unenhanced segment run. When you combine these 3 segment runs into a core run, it will be +30 and you will reach the +50 cap with a Feathered enhancer.


Keep in mind that you will need to make runs of identical segments and cores for the chest, leggings and helmet.
