Didn't want to make them too good unless I upped the slowdown to 3.

From what I understand bombsuits are meant to protect against pressure waves and bits of shrapnel rather than high velocity bullet rounds.
They're thick which would make beating on someone in one difficult, the thickness would also absorb lasers as the laser would burn a few inches of suit rather than flesh, and would also make it more difficult for tasers and the like to make contact.
