Arctic Marine Armor

[Exhausted Dragon]

Anybody got the plans already?
I am really curious about its parameters.

I would not expect much more than a reskin of normal marine armor.

saw a leg or an arm this morning and had slightly more er/dr than the regular marine, nothing too special. The interesting part is that it comes with cryo resistance (that piece in particular had +8 cryo resistance if I remember correctly). That would make it the only armor set in the game that comes with elemental resistances. The bad thing is that seems that all pieces except the torso are missing rad resistance.

I expect something "slightly better than the armor that is only good for Nuclear Winter because there are no other armors to wear", but I am really curious why it has to be arctic one.
Thermal protection maybe?..

Oh, yeah, that famous element that is being used by... only one... type of... one species... of regular mobs...
This is really underwhelming.

Expeditions is an upcoming thing. Could be useful in that.

Kinda yeah, but it's still two seasons away

So, what have we got now for end game armour:

• Solar for full health/support
• Thorn for melee
• Service for balanced defence
• Recon for high DR
• Covert for sneak
• Marine for cold
• Power Armor for heavy guns

Too many options, particularly when legendary effects considered. Diluted daily ops pool so Minerva becomes more useful/required. Just wait for 'tier 2' combat armour next...

Having many options is always good, as lack of choice always sucks, but...
With current Legendary crafting it kinda worthless.
You'll need endless supply of modules and cores to get a semi-viable roll for a single thing, and if we're talking about getting a new set of armor which is 5-6 pieces... and a new weapon like Peppershaker... wait, we can trade Peppershakers. Crusader, yeah.
A full set of non-tradable items for a character. Jesus. Why.
