What is your Go-to armor combo?

[comet_65cali]

Lets be honest,

A full pack armor combo is not always fitting our play-style.

So what is?

For me:

Ranger "Goggles": Only because I don't wanna min-max and keeps my trading upgraded at all times. Good Look

Lumberjack "Outfit": Good Luck finding the 4X pocket mod schematic. Light Armor keeps me mobile.

Biker Gloves: I really need a boost with melee compared to ranged attacks.

Ranger Boots: The boost for stamina speeks for itself.

Rogue Hood
Lumberjack Outfit
Preacher Gloves
Commando Boots

biker hat. biker clothes, biker boots, biker glove. bicycle.
so cool.

[Nocternaldaze]

Raiders hat, raiders gloves (using club perk tree), biker boots and nomad outfit for the extra carry slots.

For mining the miners hat, miners outfit and gloves.

For farming the farmers outfit and boots.

[Dr. Rockso]

Primitive armor with heat and cold resistance is the only way to go.

[Eriskumma]

Full Assassin's set because I like cheese. :D Also use Miner & Lumberjack sets when harvesting wood or mining ore.

Early game -
Nerd Googles (heavy armor and increased XP gain)
Nomad Outfit (heavy armor and more backpack slots)
Preacher Gloves (light armor and you deal more damage to zombies)
Nomad Boots (heavy armor and increased run speed)

Late game-
Raider Helmet (heavy armor and 100% stun resistance)
Raider Outfit (heavy armor and reduces critical injuries by 50%)
Preacher Gloves (light armor and you deal 60% more damage to zombies)
Nomad Boots (heavy armor and 20% increased run speed)

Dyed Pink - for that EXTRA Street Cred.

Honestly I can't see much reason to run anything other than full preacher.

You get the 60% bonus damage regardless of weapon type

It's pretty good damage reduction despite being light armor because of the chest piece effect, plus being light armor means you have no mobility/stamina reductions and don't have to spec into med/heavy armor perks

Plus you can't be infected (no need to carry honey, saves an inv slot), and you're much less likely to receive critical injuries. You also heal injuries faster if you ever do happen to get them

I also bring rogue helm/gloves for looting, gives a loot bonus and makes it faster/easier to lockpick

I can't really justify anything else personally. Obviously some full sets are good for certain things, like lumberjack for woodcutting, but you can happily store those in base for specific scenarios. The 20% EXP from nerd goggles is nice but I never really used it. The nerd chest piece is nice as a swap early on, don't use it anymore though

The only other things I can think of are the 20% movespeed boots, that would be nice. The 100% stun resist from raider helmet is nice too but you can get that from perks so it's eventually replaceable

Nomad armor, Commando shoes, Preacher gloves, Rogue hat.

Inventory slots, zombie damage, movement speed, loot bonus.

Also it looks cool.

[DC| TehAgent]

Nomad Headgear: -60% Food and Water Use (Dont really need it any more but ok; its still nice to not have to carry food around when you go out adventuring)

Biker Outfit: +20 max Health (more HP is good - Im not a sneek build)

Commando Gloves: +50% Ranged Damage (this is bonkers)

Enforcer Shoes: +20% Run Speed (yep, I started something I couldnt finish so Ill just run away. To the nearest choke point that is.)

I also run a combo of commando gear and athletic gear. Its an an outpost of mine right now so I cant check it - but there were reasons for all of the pieces that made sense. It used to be my horde night gear as I was coming up.

[Serpent]

rogue hood - loot stage
assassin armor - for sneak bonus
preacher glove - for 60% bonus damage
commando boots - for running speed (it's also medium with only 10 noise that can negate with buffer mod)

im playing full agi build so i don't plan to getting hit much. if push come to shove i just jumping around waving machete and zombie just die around me.

[Serious]

For early to mid game:
Rogue hood
Scavenger or commando gloves
Scavenger oufit
Nomad or biker boots

For late game:
Doesn't matter anymore, even tier 6 quests at night in wasteland with faster zombies on insane are not difficult.

[Trooper Bri]

I just go full on Biker gear since Strength is my primary perk. And since travel is much more important now, the fuel efficiency bonus from the full set is nice.

[Azure]

Generally I'm always in Miner Head, Outfit and gloves with Biker Boots
Horde or expected heavy combat I'm in Head and Outfit Raider, Preacher Gloves and Biker boots
