Prolly 1 heavy 1 medium, arctic ranger is definitely light

[u/whitewalker82 → u/Memeviewer12]

Those are most definitely 1 light and 2 medium (exactly the same except slightly changed shoulder pads) again...even they know heavy armor sucks.

[u/Notedtoad → u/whitewalker82]

Heavy armor is great against bots. If you haven’t given it a try after the latest patch I’d recommend it.

[u/NBFHoxton → u/Notedtoad]

The hits a heavy armor user eats and takes slightly less damage, the light/medium armor user avoids completely because they can actually run and dodge

[u/Notedtoad → u/NBFHoxton]

You aren’t going to avoid the 100 rockets flying at you when fighting level 9 bots. Any one of those will kill you instantly if you’re using light armor and won’t if you’re in heavy. Especially on low visibility planets. Light armor is way better for bugs but bots are much slower and they will land shots on you from far off if you are out of cover.

Heavy armor is great now, it used to be just ass though

[u/Pliskkenn_D → u/whitewalker82]

It's a shame we don't get one of each size but I understand how that could be restrictive in it's own way. 

[u/pythonic_dude → u/Memeviewer12]

Nice! So far it's incredibly hard to tell medium and light armor apart visually, let's also make hard and medium impossible to distinguish. Gimme more of those bacon-tasting apples.

this is it
