How does the kevlar system works

[WhiteMonkey]

Hey guys ,

To buy a kevlar gives you 100 armour , but how does it works ?
How many damage does it prevends ?
What the difference in reducing damage between kevlar and kevlar plus helmet ?

depends on weapons and theirs armor penetration, also helmet (whats very strange after all) protects from bullets dat hit head.

Kevlar protects you're body. Helmet and kevlar protects both body and head. Which means head takes less damage. It should preven like 10-30 damage. Or so. Depends on the gun.

Kevlar gives 100 armor to the body.
Helmet is for HS.
When you have both the Armour value is for both.
So 100 armor is spread across the armor spectrum.
If you get shot in the body for 50 it removes 50 armor regardless of armor type.
If however you have no helmet, hs will have full effect.
With Helmet, normal armor values apply.

No, you get hit for 50 it takes 50 armor.
The damage you take is the damage removed from armor, no armor means HP gets removed.

Not true. Armor's protection depends on a weapon's armor penetration. (I think the effects of wall penetration matters too. Like if a bullet goes through a wall, you'll take less health damage, as in the effects are stacked.

It's impossible to lose all your armor in a single round without dying. 100 armor is as good as 20 armor in terms of damage prevention. All that matters is your armor never reaches zero, once it does the effects of the armor go away.
