Best Uses for Kompositum 58?
Doesn't look like you can combine it with Unique armor (Deathsquad Helmet/Armor/Leggings or the Mad Max Shiny and Chrome Helmet).

Also can't combine it with Night Vision Goggles, Gas Mask, or Gasmaskenhelm.

The most exciting thing about it is that it IS combineable with Camo Armor (Light or Medium), which normally can't be used with Weave Padding or Ceramic Plates. And I presume this was intended (and not a bug) since the devs had to specifically code what Camo Armor looks and functions like with Kompositum.

Thus the best options seem to be:

(For Heavy Armor users): Heavy Armor Helmet/Armor/Leggings

(For Medium Armor users. Basically those who like free movement but don't have Fast Runner): Kevlar Helmet, Kevlar Leggings, Kevlar Armor or Medium Camo Armor (Camo Armor makes you harder to detect and aiming is less effective but it only covers torso while Kevlar Armor covers arms and torso).

(For Light Armor users, which is mainly Fast Runners): Light Helmet, Flak Leggings, Flak Jacket or Light Camo Armor (Camo Armor makes you harder to detect and aiming is less effective but it only covers torso while Kevlar Armor covers arms and torso).

--> I think I'll use most of mine with Medium Camo Armor (especially for Shadow). And even for the less stealthy folk, I think I might prefer Medium Camo Armor + Kompositum over Kevlar Armor + Kompositum.

What did you use your Kompositum with?

I'd use it on an armor on a designated tank merc, regardless of armor. But then again, I don't really get them shot anyway :D

Why decide when you can produce it by yourself? ^^

I'm still completing the ubahn but if this stuff makes medium camo upgradeable, then it's S tier for sure

Edit: wow, ok. Just lost my main IMP and Larry down here. Brutal!

LOL. Yeah, those super soldiers are a wake up call.

I've used it on my machine gunner on my B team (Grunty) since they spend more time out of cover than the other guys. My A team machine gunner (Steroid) is currently wearing the death squad armor so I couldn't give it to him. I've just found a second copy of the Kompositum 58 though so I'll have to decide who to use that on.

IKR!
Things were under control until 2 shotgunners appeared through some smoke and laid 3 blasts each onto my IMP.
Now I wanna make a triple-shot B squad just to go do that to the enemies lol

Poor Larry thought he was doing so well until 3 reinforcements dropped down behind him... :p

Underground combat is easy once you realize you can abuse the AI and their inability to open doors simply by closing it and body-blocking the tile in front of it with a merc, right before you end your turn. Then when it's your turn again you open it and unload, then close it again and repeat.

I'd rather have fun than easy but each to their own!

I got kinda lucky in the main lab area because there was a weird glitch where the AI would waste a turn running in a circle even though the door was open. Night vision + sniper weapons + Barry hurling grenades helped me out a lot in the underground overall though.
