Thread: Armor Question
This info is in other posts. Experimentation % means nothing. It's the Fortitude number that matters. This must break 500.
The problem I've been seeing is too many BE's push for armor and neglect the other stats. Thus ending up with pets that have 10k Health but only 2-4k Action and Mind. That light armor doesn't do much good when there's such a low AM, especially with mobs and players attacking the lowest pool if they are able to.
I think it does effect the overall protection, but it shows up on the items stats. So, if the damage protection goes down due to condition, you can see them go down on the stats; Otherwise, they'll update with the condition.
Right now I'm not using any armor, just pants and a shirt.
I don't like the Encumbrance that most armor gives. And if Ubese is good to use, does anyone have a
recommendationfor an Armorsmith on Starsider?

Ubese is great PvE armour, but as far as PvP goes, I personally think it's either Comp or you're better off without (unless it's a duel with a TK, then ubese is alright).
Don't get me wrong, running around unarmoured will get you squashed (I should know, I don't own composite. Tried with Ubese, tried without anything), but often enough your opponent'll just switch to a damage type your armour's vulnurable to anyway.
get full composite with stun resists, no vuns at all, then u jsut gotta watch out for ppl with AP 3 weapons

I am also on Starsider, and buy my armour in Braxis on Naboo. A full suit of either there will cost you around 200k.
