New "Hybrid Armour" in store - Thoughts?

[AoD_lexandro]

So there is a new armour in the SC score that is medium weight but increased defence and reduce stamina. The B-24 Enforcer is essentially is a medium/heavy hybrid allowing you to take a bit more armour than basic but not lose as much stamina as full heavy armour.

I personally am finding it a nice alternative to full heavy as I am still able to take a few hits and not lose that much time overall in the mission. So what are your thoughts on it?

I don't buy from the SC store, I don't grind the game enough to get the pass in a reasonable time and buy from the store. Plus I'm pretty happy with the effects and outfits I have right now. For me, unless I'm playing as a scout, I'm not really switching off of either medium hero of the federation for the 50% lethal surviving chance, or heavy armor because it looks ♥♥♥♥♥♥ cool as the heavy weapons guy.

Not worth it. Much rather have actual passives, rather than a little more armor. I do just fine with 50 armor.

It has the fortified passive on top of the extra armor bonus.

Enforcer armor is one of my top armors to use. Pretty much the "heavy" armor I use if I still have to run around the map a fair amount. I also like how the helmet looks.

It's not new lol. It's just available currently in the rotation

Sad, I got on thinking they added new stuff to the super store.

The armor isn't new, it's just the current available.

This armor IS NOT NEW

Could people not be so pedantic with semantics please? Its new as in added to day, the two sets previously offered are the old ones.

As mention it's not new it's part of the rotation on sc store. But it's really good armor, Fortified trait save you consistently against rockets/grenade.

When those old ones come back around in the rotation, are they new again?

I bought it specifically to help me with Bots, but meh, didnt turn out to be all that good tbh, i felt the reduced stam/speed more than i felt the better protection, so instead im now using the Exterminator medium, for Fortified or one with Democracy Protects passive with better results.

In case you are new to the game: what you get on Super Store are basically just skins.

I have made dedicate entire sections in my newbie guide about that and why you do not need to buy there or spent any real money.

Long story short: what you like with the effects, you can get from the standard Warbond as well. Buying an armour in Superstore early only gives you early access before unlocking it in the warbond.

Plus that makes only sense if you truly want to support microtransactions, as you get Super Credits quite quick just by playing.

Whenever someone is talking about Superstore items, please just talk about them as skins. You like the look? Awesome - that is all to say about it. The current look of a Snow Stormtrooper e.g. sure has its charm. But I tend to avoid all armours in Superstore because I need look+effect to match my playstyle. Otherwise it is just a thing for ingame items collectors.

I personally only use “heavy armor” with fortified if I intend to bring the HMG or the machigun with an ammo backpack to replace the shield pack and help with the recoil,
every other time its medium armor or light if against bug…
Work wonder but yeah the slow speed can be felt pretty bad and I'm not really sure the little speed boost this armor give is worth the lost of armor for me...

Seems fine. It is nice to have a mix of armor, so you can customize your load out to what you are doing. Sure, it isn't really needed but it is nice to have the option right?

oh, definitively more customization is good
