Armor List

"That's fuckin' fascinating, truly."         
This article still has missing content, and is a work in progress! Someone get on that!

It's dangerous out in them wastes, especially to soft, fleshy human bodies. To alleviate this, why not get some fuckin' armor?
Pros to wearing armor: Shit won't hit you as hard!
Cons to wearing armor: It weighs you down, making it harder to dodge.
Basically you want to strike a balance between how much your armor protects you and how horribly it debuffs your ability to dodge. Note that this isn't always the case and there is rarely a "best armor" for all situations. You might run into crap that only uses slashing, bouncing off your robust slash soak, but then find yourself getting wrecked by a weaker mob with a gun.
Armoring up for PVP is entirely a case-by-case basis on what you think the other guy's wielding. Communication with your corp is key here, if they know a dude is highly skilled with whips, you should probably prepare for high slashing (urumi) or electric (flash whip) damage. Lots of people carry guns as backup weapons, however so keep that in mind.
Below is a (incomplete) table of armor sets and their associated soak bonuses and dodge penalties:

== Armor Sets In-Depth ==
Leather: Extremely cheap newbie gear from Protect Ya Neck in FC. At some point the cost of this set becomes "fucking nothing". The set only gives 0.75 total dodge penalty. If you need some extra slash and stab soak and don't want to spend any money, this is a really good one.
Kevlar: Newbie gear bought from Protect Ya Neck in FC. Some of the easiest bullet soak one could get, plus some beat, and it won't completely demolish your dodge.
Reinforced Fused-Rebar: For what it gives, it is a very inexpensive set. The same merchant (in Botany) sells more expensive armor that's good for layering ontop of this. Note that you can't wear anything underneath this set. It is not meant to be stacked.
Riot: The main event here is the tiny 4 thickness. This allows you to stack riot on top of almost anything. The set is expensive, however. Bought in Artillerytown.
Augmented Battle: Middle-grade armor that lots of people swear by. It's really thick, and the dodge penalty is high, but is much much cheaper than Riot with slightly better soaks in most categories. Bought in Botany Bay.
