Thread: What is the Best Armor For BH vs. Jedi?
I could quite possibly be wrong, but this is my understanding of it.

There was an AS on my server a while back that made 8100E resist padded armor. I guess it's the core that determines the resists on the armor, with the appearance being just that...Looks. R.I.S. is (I think) the only armor where the appearance adds something to the armor (if I recall, +50 health for each protective piece, for a total of +350 health bonus for all pieces.) The main thing is that you want a high energy resist armor, as that is what lightsaber damage is.

padded armor is battle. Cap for energy on energy layered battle is 7200, so I do think you are quite possibly wrong ![]()
All armor sytles can be health enhanced, its just that RIS has double the condition of standard styles and so is popular for adding health bonuses. Battle is also the easiest to hit the 50hp per piece cap on due to a better range of health enhancer loot for battle armors in general

do i need to bust out my screenshots of 8421 energy resist armor?
pre pub 20 smuggler changes sliced energy layered recon with hinderances that can't be mitigated by a master elite recon combat prof. This can't be acheived anymore.

Witty? Whats the max energy resist to reach with Mambari Armor? cuzz lightsabers do energy damage right?
All recon styles can reach the same cap, the appearance is just that, a nice look ![]()
For energy layered armor the following energy caps exist
Assault 6200 (comp, chitin, BH armor, Mando)
Battle 7200 (RIS, marauder, padded, bone)
Recon 8200 (mabari, ubese, tantel)
