Thread: Hmmm Which Armour
you might as well get comp, since u dont got recon. pistoleer and smugglar are good , and offer recon mitigation, so most BH prefer that temp, cause recon is great vs sabers..
PS, i'd avoid killing faction members, gives ya a bad reputation on your server, and IF/WHEN GCW and FRS are worth a fook again, you will want to have some jedi on your side....
my solution, ( since i am smugglar/bh) is switch factions accordingly lmao, or stay nuetral
i work for the highest bidder on my BH....
battle 6000 energy, 6000 kinetic, 6000 base
assault 6000 energy, 6000 kinetic, 6000 base.
Layered
primus battle 6600 energy, 6600 kinetic 5400 base
kinetic assault 3800 kinetic, 8200 kinetic 6000 base
primus recon 7600 energy, 5600 kinetic 5400 base
2000 = 20.0%
3000 = 28.5%
4000 = 36.0%
5000 = 42.5%
6000 = 48.0%
7000 = 52.5%
8000 = 56.0%
9000 = 58.5%
10000 = 60%

Get energy layered battle armor if you intend to fight high level jedi, and primus layered battle if you are doing mixed pvp (non jedi haveseveral good kineticweapons) or are hunting jedi who have rifleman skills since jedi using ROTW looted kinetic rifles when they see a target in recon or battle is becoming more common. Wear a PSG for any rifle wielding jedi as well to mitigate those ALR jedi further.
Certainly do not get comp or chitin for that matter, its assault and its energy protection will be low.
As an example, here are the stats on capped armors, there will be smiths on your server who can hit the unlayered caps and get close to layered caps.
Unlayered
recon 7000 energy, 5000 kinetic, 6000 base
battle 6000 energy, 6000 kinetic, 6000 base
assault 6000 energy, 6000 kinetic, 6000 base.
Layered
energy recon 8200 energy, 3800 kinetic 6000 base
primus battle 6600 energy, 6600 kinetic 5400 base
Energy battle 7200 energy, 4800 kinetic 6000 base
kinetic assault 3800 kinetic, 8200 kinetic 6000 base
primus recon 7600 energy, 5600 kinetic 5400 base
Protectionconverts to resists as below
1000 = 10.5%
2000 = 20.0%
3000 = 28.5%
4000 = 36.0%
5000 = 42.5%
6000 = 48.0%
7000 = 52.5%
8000 = 56.0%
9000 = 58.5%
10000 = 60%
So you can see, energy layered battle is within 3% of the best energy layered recon.

Thanks for the help m8. What is a good type of battle armour ? I cant get rebel or Imperial battle armour because I dont have any faction pointsand how much should this cost me ?

I have some Marauder...........but it looks crappy
padded with an RIS helmet looks really cool...expensive to get the helmet sort of, with what GDK scales go for now.
