Xenarite Legs + Tech-Auxillum arms + Rites of Range = "Necrons don't resurrect, they ragdoll."

Very, very late but @Executioner. Yes, you do want to finish each mission at 100%. And unless you bring no healing augments with you whatsoever. It would be very very very hard to not do so. Simply leave 1 weak enemy alive (preferably one who cant damage you on its turn) like a Flayed One (No ranged attacks) and Kite it and heal all your units. Finish off the enemy. Profit.

I will assume Xenarite is a new set from some DLC or the like, as I haven't really touched the game in quite some time now. Many thanks to Paugs/previous poster for providing information though!

disagree. max hp is not really that desirable. (you will lose blackstone credits for EACH LOST HP!!, so you want finish each mission at 100%) so armor is vastly superior, sinc it minimizes what you need to heal. on the other hand, no armor, high HP, will leave you with the most expensive heaelth bills, if you dont treat them. so i would take the +2armor helm over 2hp+1armor helm anytime. for the other parts, depends, a tank my need some HP+armor, while i would pack the +1dmg on every priest.

IMHO the following are the Best In Slot + BIS Contender for each slot.
Head:
Best In Slot is either Secutor/Dominus (same stats) or Explorator choice depends on Armor Type you want.
Contender is either Tech-Auxilium or Lexmechanic choice of 2 E-Armor vs 1 of each.

Chest:
Best In Slot is Tech-Auxilium
Contender is either Enginseer or Dominus cosmetic differeance only.

Legs:
Best In Slot is Dominus
Contender is Enginseer

Arms:
Best In Slot is either Secutor or Lexmechanic, % bonus determines choice.
Contender is either Explorator or Dominus for Physical or Energy Dmg. bonus respectively.


The rest of the pieces are either objectively inferior and not worth taking over either of the above mentioned choices or only usefull in some very strict scenarios, but the fact that you will not know if you will have to deal with such scenarios in advance makes them moot.
