Falcon or SEVA armor for early game?

[Bill the Butcher]

I need better armor and I heard these are both good to get. Is the Falcon really expensive to maintain/upgrade?

You can't go wrong with either, both are good, but yeah he falcon is more expensive to repair, yes.

I went across the map for the Falcon. Hope it was worth it. It is a huge upgrade from what I was using before (the Explorer).

there's a place you can get a diamond exoskeleton early game also by just pushing a wood box for 150 yards or so.

There are better ways for getting it rather than pushing a frickin box all over the place.
But to each it's own.

Best armors imo:

Sunrise/SEVA low tier

Falcon/BULAT mid tier

SSP-100I Survey/Bulwark EXO top tier

X7/Liberty EXO end game

Easier to get free Seva D and Seva F suits in ACTUAL "early game" areas. You can also easily get the carry harness unlock for the seva D by the cement area (which only displays unlocking the camel bottle, for some reason).

Real "armor" will be tougher, but I can't remember if the falcon has the carry harness upgrade. And I value built in carry+ more than I value lead pockets. (Luv you, basic budget PSZ-7)

Of course with the absurd repair prices in this game, even a cherry picked upgrades seva skipping elemental upgrades and slumming it with only a single lead pocket can break the 100k total value barrier, which still makes 95% out of 100 durability cost thousands on normal.

So as you already have the fancy falcon, you have a price point comparison now for "What would I even save? Would it be worth using cheaper armor for a while?"

At Malachite, there's a free Falcon (iirc Falcon-I) with Spark camo, that just requires a relatively long parkour and anomaly dodging to get.

It's GREAT imo, and I'm currently using it.

Stock, it's got SEVA levels of anomalies resistance AND psychic resistance (unlike regular Falcon and Bulat), with 3+ physical resistance.

The Malachite technician can upgrade it, so if you've got the cash you can immediately pump it up with -1kg weight reduction, +8kg carry, up to 5 artifact slots, up to 4+ bars of physical protection and, what's best, up to +50% durability resistance!

The only drawback is that it requires a flash drive blueprint to unlock leaded containers upgrade.

Both are good and expensive to fix, since they are more focused for mid/late game. Just dont come letter on crying in the forum how borken the economy system and how expensive the repairs are when you are the one going out of your way to get something not ment for the stage you're at.

I won't lol. And yea the Falcon repairing at just 90% is already expensive AF! Well I got what I wanted. Maybe I should get the SEVA too.

you know Diamond EXO is the best?

[DukeA55]

The PSZ-9I Falcon is a great choice, my absolute favorite. Bulat and Wolfhound can't compete with it.

[Dr.Abscondus]

Seva has more artifact slots than the Falcon when fully upgraded. That's the only thing that might be important to you. Either will do until you get an exo-skeleton.

[DukeA55]

Nope, Falcon is also at 5 slots with much more better stats.

How do you upgrade the slots on the Falcon?

[Nite69]

Seva for early game, Falcon for late game (I know where to get both for free)
