Thread: Armour slicing: additional hindrance

Hi,


it's not mention in the faq, but apparently slicing armour increases the hindrance of armour (no downside for weapon slicing?)


is there any way of knowing in advance how much extra hindrance you will get, in order to avoid reach the point where your hindrance is too big to negate.


thx

I've sliced several peices of my armor and not noticed any hinderence changes. Sounds like a false rumor to me.

This was the case before publish 20 changed slicing. Way back then, slicing armor affected the protection. If the slice pushed the protection over the armor's cap, the armor would have added hindrances that a master-level certification couldn't mitigate away.

Because slicing no longer affects protection, it is no longer an issue. There is no way for slicing to add to armor hindrance now.

mm any idea what it would cost me to have a full suit sliced against armor break?

Depends on server and the smuggler doing the slice to be honest. Shock absorbant paddings are kind of a rarity on my server... so they sell for 100k minimum. Reactive micro platings are slightly less rare since they drop from MBH missions sometimes, but on my server they still go for 20-50k each.


It won't be cheap like weapons, I can tell you that much. If I was to slice a full suit of 7 peices (boots and gloves can't be sliced), I would charge 200k a peice. Some may charge more some may charge less. I try to charge enough to make 50k profit on each item and be able to replentish my stock... so it varies depending on what the value of the parts are on each server.


Ask on your server's trade forums for a sure answer.
