Thats right. I wonder how anyone can take down those TKs in full composite and 4k/4k/3k/ HAM now. You will have to shot like 1 million times.
just find out who is selling them. take a quick peak at what they are vunerable to. get the right gun

Because of oddities with the armor system, you take MORE damage from ion rifle headshots with stun-layered composite than you would unarmored or with a standard stun-vulnerable helm, unless you have more than 25% stun resist. Any amount of stun resist will reduce damage from tangle pistol or stun baton, but not many people use those and there's a lot of riflemen with ion rifles.

I read the thread, and I may have missed something, but why would this be true for an AP1 Jawa Ion Rifle? This peculiarity should only come into play when AP > AR, as I understand it, and composite is AR1.
how the hell did u get a 80% stun layer? i read on the armorsmith forum that the best is 45% with perfecet xperimentaion , the best resources and it cant be loot enhanced
so r u lying or something cause this doesnt make much sense to me
actully there are quite a few 80% composite stun out there. not sure how they make it (not a AS) but i know it can be done.
