Understanding Armor Enhancement

Armor Enhancement in Strinova is accessed via the "Fabrication Terminal" found in your safe house. Here, you can select individual armor pieces (Helmet, Chest, Gauntlets, Leggings) and apply various upgrades using collected resources. Each armor piece has a base stat line and several enhancement slots that can be filled with specific modules or improved through direct stat boosts.

There are two primary methods of enhancing your armor:

• Direct Stat Upgrades: These improvements directly increase core stats like "Physical Resistance," "Energy Resistance," and "Explosive Resistance." Each upgrade tier costs increasing amounts of "Scrap Metal" and "Component Kits."
• Module Slots: Each armor piece features a limited number of module slots. These slots can be filled with specialized "Armor Modules" that grant unique bonuses, such as increased "Shield Regeneration Rate," "Status Effect Resistance," or even passive "Resource Scavenging" buffs. Modules are acquired through mission rewards, enemy drops, or purchased from the "Quartermaster."

Prioritize enhancing the resistance types most relevant to the mission you're undertaking. For example, against heavily armed human factions, Physical Resistance is key, while facing alien entities might necessitate higher Energy Resistance. experiment with different module combinations to find what best suits your playstyle and the challenges ahead.
