Armor (LWR): Difference between revisions

Revision as of 01:19, 27 December 2024

In General

Most technology levels provide access to two different suits of Armor, one tailored towards mobility and defense, and the other tailored towards higher HP and DR.

Armor provides armor HP to soldiers, allowing XCOM soldiers to withstand significant punishment. Certain armors have less equipment slots as compensation for various advantages.

Armor is important to increase the HP of all units, even non-tanks. This is because enemies that can deal damage equal to or greater than a soldier's HP will prioritize targeting them; making it difficult for a tank to occupy enemy attention.
