    Edit: Hey to those of you I told the Servo doesn't stack with Vitality, this in fact actually not true they do stack but not in the way you might expect. I'll have a full video on limb health and how injury works soon! Took awhile to get the graphics together for this one but glad to bring you guys yet more nerd numbers. Thanks for watching and as always my favorite comment will be featured at the end of the next video!

    WAIT A MINUTE!! the bile spewers vomit attack, the thing that gets me killed ALL THE TIME, is EXPLOSIVE!??!?!?!? WHAT?!? never, in a thousand years would I think a stream of vomit would do the same damage as a grenade
  • @tstanemo8950
    Just leaving a comment here so General Brasch doesnt nerf the vitality booster.
  • @coomtheslayer
    Acid being categorized as explosive damage is the most useful thing ive ever heard i will run light armor fortified from now on for bugs
  • 10:17 Wait, so you're telling me I should have been running Fortified on bug missions and Extra padding on bots?! I've been doing the opposite! How Many Other Lies Have I Been Told By The Council?!
  • @PieguyXD357
    It's crazy how useless the in game info is. We're missing so much information like planet supply lines, durable damage, and some booster descriptions. I didn't even know armor had such obscure mechanics
  • @luck0000
    Nice touch finally having your model talk to the camera instead of just having a stream clip of talking to chat or the people you're playing with in the background.
  • @KiIlZ0nE
    Phenomenal breakdown of armor. Been playing for hundreds of hours more than I ever should and by experience it lines up with everything you said. Never knew vitality added a reduction multiplier. Just attributed it 20% extra health but never felt it was accurate. Keep pumping out the nerd info content. I really appreciate your effort.
  • @Bocaj6487
    You showed B-01 Tactical as your example for 100 armor value, but that armor has 150 armor value due to Extra Padding.
  • @fesaaj1479
    Would really appreciate a guide for where to shoot enemies. Which limbs have most/ least hp, different armor/DR types, etc
  • @alessoBonora
    Cool breakdown. Recently switched from the kodiak to the fortified commando and definitely noticed a significant difference when taking rockets to the face. Thought it was my imagination, but this kinda confirms it.
  • @TheCosmicAstro-
    This is why i really wish they would just give us exactly what boosters do. For the longest time due to so many videos saying so, i thought the vitality booster just gave you 20 extra HP. But it being a 20% damage reduction is way more valuable especially for headshots. Thanks for all you do!
  • @yengereng9962
    tried the marshmallow armor, you can actually feel the difference and im not talking the speed difference lmao. you can actually get swarmed by hunters and come out relatively fine or the stuck in a bullet storm and walk it off, plus fire doesnt evaporate you, still hurts though lol. once vehicles come into the game the big downside of speed will be much more tolerable
  • @jaywerner8415
    Probably the most INFORMATIVE Video yet. And yet I must ask "WHY IS THIS NOT IN GAME!" Just like I ask WHY IS THEIR NOT A BEASTEY TERMINAL ON OUR SHIP!
  • @OwOsiris
    I've always been running the Light Gunner armor just cause I liked the simple paramilitary look to it. And to boot it has Max speed and stamina like Trailblazer, but with extra padding bringing it to 100 armor. It is literal perfection as far as I care.
  • @arkhunter2002
    so you're telling me there's other armor outside of light scout armor?
  • One of the best explanation videos I've seen on YouTube ever😂
  • @combatrobot1443
    Nice to know that the Fortified light armor from the superstore is actually beneficial, taking less explosive damage than non-Fortified heavy armor. Feels like a justified purchase now. Edit: Lmao, never mind, got to the part of the video that talks about explosive projectiles. Oof. Guess I should be on the lookout for the Extra Padding light armor in the superstore.
