Armor: Protection & Mods

Understand armor types, damage resistance, and how to use armor mods effectively in The Outer Worlds 2 for optimal protection.

Armor provides crucial protection against incoming damage and can offer various skill bonuses. It's categorized into Light, Medium, and Heavy, each with different trade-offs between damage resistance and mobility. Light armor offers less protection but often provides stealth bonuses. Heavy armor offers maximum protection but can reduce movement speed. Armor pieces can be modified with various Armor Mods, such as 'Damage Resistance Plating', 'Skill Boosters', or 'Stealth Enhancers'. These mods can sificantly improve your survivability or enhance your character's skills. Always ensure your companions are also equipped with appropriate armor and mods. Look for unique armor sets that offer powerful set bonuses or special abilities. Maintaining your armor's durability is just as important as your weapons.
