Player clothes and armor

[canning_s]

Hi,

 

Am i correct in saying that the Super Heavy Heist clothing increases armor as well as having Super Heavy armor? Other than Super Heavy Armor, is these another way to increase armor and hit points?

 

Thanks in advance.

no , they reduce damage taken for green bar . this heavy utility vest also strong enough to make wearer survive 1 grenade , several point blank shotgun , tremendous barrage of fire , more . but offset by it's speed

also wearing heavy utility vest cannot display any armor vest

I use it when I can. I believe it reduces damage by 50% but slows you down.

Does the Vest slow you down / reduce DMG while in freemode? I can't say I've noticed a speed difference. or much damage reduction. Also @ OP bullet proof helmets help

No, from what I've heard is that it only works in Heist though missions might work too.

I think it's missions only - I still have the bomb outfit saved yet Lola can run full speed with it on, and doesn't survive an RPG hit

The vest only works in heists. The helmet works everywhere

What helmet do you recommend I get, and where from? Also, I currently have Super Heavy Heist clothing and Super Heavy Armor, what else should I be wearing?

BP helmet , any camo will do ( unless you want to match it's camo with the rest outfit )

but whatever you do , do not physically show the armor ( blue bar ) as it will replace the heavy utility vest

 

note : only the utility vest itself can have the " double-edged " buff , while only wearing it's outfit does nothing . which means you can wear any clothes paired with heavy utility vest but none of them can counter the vest's weakness

1. For the heavy utility vest, is this part of the outfit called Heist Heavy Combat? If so, do I need to add it to a player saved outfit to get the benefits from the outfit, or when I purchase the outfit and keep it on, that is all I need to do?

 

When you say do not physically show the armor, do you mean in the Inventory->Body Armor->Show Armor->None and Inventory->Body Armor->Auto Show Armor->Off. When I purchase Super Heavy Armor at the start of a heist, the blue bar is shown. Is this incorrectly setup?

@1

yeah , in case of the host set the outfit to " Player Saved Outfit " or if you're in middle of teamwork with your comrades

@2

yes , that one . the blue bar is shown ( depend on body armor's strength ) but the physical armor only cosmetic purpouses ( even if blue bar is 0% , you still can choose to physically show them ) , like if you want to dress like a marine

 

note : weakest armor that player wore is differ than in floating pickups or in ammunation , this armor can be seen worn by LSPD , merryweather , professional and marines
