Heavy armor - OP?

[Artek [General]]

Title.
Seriosly, i don't see any reason to use any lighter armor unless to run faster.
Heavy armor is the only reason i don't die right away from Ex Machina's cannons... And even then it's hardcore.
Is there anyone who plays with Light armor and doesn't have any problems with playthrough?

With maxed dermal sheath you can use Light on all difficulties under ghost with sbo settings and take all fire with impunity. Running incredibly fast is very useful on its own, as well as being able to reach slightly higher as well. For most that won't mean much and heavy armor is always your best bet barring stealth.

I love the light armor just bring the right weapons for the job and use your skills well the LF-444 Bear Killer can kill a Ex Machina in a few shots to the head before it can even shoot back and the ploycloning skill can get you out of a lot of bad spots all that aside you can bring more gear with you with lighter armor

Well, i guess it's good for stealth and cloaking...
The things that i don't really care about right now. Too used to just push my way through with heavy weapon power.
My only regret is that i can't buy that anti-tank gun because apparently it needs a research

Arrancadora, medkit, dragonbreath, light armor. It stops playing like an FPS and starts to handle like an F1 game.

You really shouldn't be getting into protracted engagements with Deus Exes to begin with. Get yourself the Bear Killer and headshot them from afar. Or if you're feeling lucky, ghost-backstab them.

Thanks, already got myself BK444. Damn thing rules!
Besides i found a way to abuse Deus Exes by simply avoiding line of sight with their weapon, since it's only on one of their hands

I use medium, but I occasionally use light to stick under 50% weight. It's pretty good, and considering that I shouldn't be taking hits all the time...
