Armor Upgrade Not Applying?
So I didn't think much of it when playing the Wyatt Timeline because I just figured it was a background number that was modified and the 100 Armor was kept for simplicity.

Then I started a Ferguson Timeline since I beat the Wyatt Timeline and now I'm seeing Health Upgrades add additional health to the bar (i.e. over 100 HP)

Anyone else run into this?

Wyatt's buff acts differently. You get a 10% on the amount of armor you PICK UP. A helmet gives 5 armor normally. With 10 of Wyatt's armor buffs you get 10 armor instead. You can't go above 100 armor

Aho okay, I was thinking that's how armor upgrades worked, but I wasn't sure when I started Ferguson's timeline

You can go over 100 armor actually, a certain assault perk gives you armor bonuses for kill streaks. However it degrades like health does and the bonus itself is about +3 per kill so it's negligible.

And it's kinda strange that you cannot overcharge armor with pickups, full suit with buffs gives you +150 and you can't even make use of it.

I wonder if people thinking the game is easier is those that are playing the health upgrade timeline. When you only have 100 health 100 armor you die pretty damn fast.

Having 200 hp and 100 armor and there is always spare armor around. seems like the easier onne. Maybe i should try that one for uber completion :P

Also strange seeing as throughout my playthroughs, I've found an armor pickup which gives 180 (with 9/10 armor upgrades). It helps to reach 100 armor quicker, but you can't really go over that.

Back to videogame logic. Pick up multiple helmets and all of them add to armor. Just pile them on top of eachother on your head.

yo does the armor upgrade move over?

Nice necro.

But armor upgrade can move over you can complete both timelines and get all armor and health upgrades for easier gameplay.(eg. hardest difficulty)

There are 10 upgrades from each timelines.

Fergus time line each health upgrade gives+10 health so maximum of 200 standard health.
"Wyatt" timeline each armor upgrade give+10% armor from loot so with all upgrades+100% armor.

Eg 25.armor will give 50 armor but maximum standard armor will be still 100.
