I was wondering about the difference in armor types: The difference between light, medium, and heavy.


As I build Droids with different armor moduals, I notice that the armor % changes, which I understand. What I do not understand the difference between light, medium and heavy armor however. What are the differences (good and bad) between the different armor types?


Any help would be great.

for the armor %'s it goes

armor 1 - 12%
armor 2 - 24%
armor 3 - 40%

any idea what 4-6 is? I think 6 is medium armor 40% resistances

As far as light, medium and heavy armor levels read this guide from a dev. It's pretty good

Unfortunately everything I've read the armor levels aren't working correctly. But I'm not high enough to test it myself.

The STATS for various armor types are listed in the FAQ stickied at the top of this forum. However, opinions vary as to whether or not the armor is actually working as intended.

Some people tend to think that the armor rating (light, medium) is being totally ignored in the droid, and only the resistances are working.
