Swordsmen get armor midigation for "Battle" class armor (not scout or assault) Battle armor is the most rounded of armor with no major benifets or hinderances in protection... Needless to say Swordsmen have the most versital armor in the bunch.
Battle armor takes 2 segments to produce... each segment can house 4 layers each... (thats ALOT of layers) Stats stack with layers and segments meaning IF I was to pump 4 kinetic layers into segments the nstack 2 segments you will be a tank vs kinetic attacks, What will be the %? who knows but another thing to consider...
Tehre is no more encumberance BUT there is armor hinderance, the more stuff you put into it (more layers) the more hindering it will be, yes you may be a tank but youll also be wearing a movile fortis.. get the picture? slowing down your attacks and defencive countermesures.
So with that little tid bit, we swordsmen have a great armor to look forward to, differant looks and resist can come from them... Lots and lots of options. So I am happy my favorite class will have the armor that I wanted it to have

Gosh Dangit - I had a nice set of chitin made the other day thinking that would be the perfect armor for my swordsman to wear after CU - only to find out now we are stuck with padded?

Read the armor docs... look of the armor is applied after the segments are made, and there's several skins available for each armor type.

So what happens if i put night sister layers into armor? What if it now instead of waiting for the upgrade. Do you think i should wait, or do it now. One thing I am thinking might happen, is they will assign the speed and movement reduction based on the current encumberance of the armor. This would make RIS very cool. However, if the hinderance is based on presant resists, RIS will get Fooked and so will comp and padded.
