Light armor is useless now vs bugs

[Funky Koval]

You die at slightest pinch. So now what - switch to medium?

Light armor is still probably the best since you can outrun bugs in it.

the medic armor with that i believe 67 armor seems to be best. they really made it so you need to spam even more stims now with how fast limbs break, basically any armor with a dmg resistance ability (fire,explosive and ARC) is uselles your only other real option is the padded armor set. maybe the engineering armor if u wanna use the thermite grenades and really want that recoil redction. overall the armor change has been fairly poorly done. Especially on the bug front.

On the bot front its just kinda bad mainly due to the limb dmg, a stray small ass bullet will imeadiatly cripple you even in 200 armor.
But at least it doesnt have as many near insta kills as the bug front has now. (with exception of the horrible ass rocket tanks)

One of the store rotation light armour sets has the padded attribute. This gives it medium stats but light mobility
This is one of the best armours in the entire game for all round use.

I use that light armor with medium armor stats.

In bug front the only light usable is the light gunner set , other is a BS no matther the passive , even the medic light armor gonna be reckt vs 2 hunters on you lol
If gonna go in the bug front medium armor is pretty neat , but you have to go with stamina booster no matter what , servo assist , extra padded or enginner kit are very good now and maybe using the bubble shield

In the bot front use heavies or medium extra padded for speed , and the bubboe shield , i feel it better right now dont know why
Bots are more agro and their shots really hurts now
