  1. I still love using the old Ars Arma CPC. Rig is cheap with its reputation going down the gutter, love the space and still has decent protection even if its not optimal anymore. Plus the fact you can print GAC plates in the hideout if you have a spare laying around adds to it imo

  2. great vid, what i was really wondering was how does the baragly work with korund plates, compared to korund plates in the 6b13 (propane barter ceramic one) vs the normal korund
    it seems like the baragly dosnt have the physical real estate for the groin plate from the korund and the carrier says no groin protection, needs testing i think becasue baragly with korund front plate seems solid on paper

  3. The heavy plates and light plates doesnt have any difference besides weight? Ive heard that light plates were not as good as the heavy ones because the light plates lets the caracter receives blunt damage while the heavy plates avoid that. Is it wrong what I heard?

  4. isn't the ANA M2 coverage worse than the thor due to the physical coverage being less or does it not matter? like the ana has straps that dont cover as much as the thor's shoulders for example.

  5. Sorry if I missed it but has there been testing on comparing lvl 3 soft armor paired with lvl 4 plates (say a defender or redut with monoclete) vs a lvl 2 soft paired with lvl 5 plates (Korund with the korund lvl 5 plates)? Is the korund combo superior because the lvl 5 plate or does the soft armor have a big enough impact to make it even? Dont care about weight

  6. Buying the Hexatac HPC Plate Carrier from Ragman and then stripping the GAC plates and selling the carrier back, is about 10k cheaper per plate than crafting them in the hideout, or at least it was when i last checked.

  7. Since the beginning of this wipe I’ve been thinking, why don’t they add the ability to wear the paca and DDR armours under armoured rigs that don’t have the aramid coverage? Would make a lot of the useless rigs viable again with weight & cost potentially being a balancing factor.

  8. i swear my armor doesnt even come into play like 80% of my deaths. the number of times ive died to "armpit, right arm, stomach, jaw, eyes, ears" is fucking ridiculous.
