I know in armor of course. But which piece of armor would maximize it's longevity? And if I repair the armor and it falls apart, can the AA still be used? Or should I just put it in a bracer or bicep piece and not worry whether it goes to 0 or not. Any help?

Helmet, Chest and Pants wear out the fastest...I usually put my best ones in the bracers...followed by the biceps...then boots...

PS...remember you can get a Mabari Belt and a MabariUndershirt...both of those will use Armor Attachments instead of Clothing Attachments and both are not targetted by attacks (only death decay hurts them)...So if you don't have any Clothing Attachments you want to use, go get yourself one of those Belts and Marbari shirt

I use ubese shirts, mabarai belts, and ubese bandoliers. They don't suffer decay so they last forever.

Unless, of course, you are unfortunate enough to be a Wookiee. Then you are better off selling the attachment for as much money as you can.

New wookie armor takes Armor attachments...or you can go all cloth at wookies can wear the same belts as non-wookies...

But you would be insane to put it into anything besides a bracer, because we don't have anything that doesn't decay. The Chestplate and the Leggings go fast. The bracers last a while, but they still turn to dust soon enough.
We can wear tailored belts and bandoliers, but not Mabari belts or any type of armor bandolier. So the belts you put armor attachments into are right out for Wookiees.

I wasn't real sure about the Ubese shirts. The only one I have turned red in the inventory (like it was disabled), but it doesn't have any condition anyway, so who can tell? I had heard they were going to fix that and I am wary of their fixes. I was either thinking that or a bracer. Can't do the belt because I am wearing the demo belt. The AA is a +6 thrown weapon accuracy. I should be able to hit with my grenades. Just have to remember to get out of the way of them.

I find biceps decay slowest. I'd go with the Ubese shirt though.

Just a quick update...looks like in todays TC Update notes they are adding points to Ubese Shirts and Ubese Bandaliers...so they will no longer be untouchable...They'll now (once this goes live) decay with death like other items with points...

But does decay matter on things like ubese shirts/bandoliers and padded/mabari belts? Since you aren't wearing them for resistance to begin with. As I understand, on clothes, the condition doesn't matter for your attachments; the condition can be at zero, but the attachments still work so long as it's equipped. I assumed it was the same for armor - is it different?
