Thread: advice on using health enhancers for a noob
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.

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.
