I feel like you want custom fittings if your wearing hvy armor. You are also LOUD in heavy armor so stealth is pointless. The author of this thread has indicated that this post answers the original topic. The author of this topic has marked a post as the answer to their question. The one of military attracts me more for that reason that protects against the climate, although if the one of steel protects more, I prefer it. So, which is the best? At last I have enough level to make them, but now I don't know which one is better. I've been looking at how they are both in the gamepedia of the 7 Days to Die, but there only appears its durability which by the way the military has more.Īccording to the game, in the description of the military clothes it says that it provides the best defense of armor and moderate protection against the climate, but the 'Armor rating' is smaller than that of an iron or steel. The encumberance slots are the greyed out heavy load icon slots in your inventory.Home Discussions Workshop Market Broadcasts. This means an armor set can relieve you of 15 encumberance slots!!

In my tests, jumping without any mods caused my detection bar to jump to 37, with the regular connectors it went down to 35 and advanced down to They can be put onto ANY armor piece and the effects stack. This means the best military can only get 13 armor rating and the best steel can get Modifications: Connectors and Sneaking Muffled Connectors and advanced muffled connectors slightly decreases the zombies ability to detect you. Top tier Military Armor has a rating of 10 13 military padding and steel has 12 16 steel plating with Any type of padding goes with light armor and any type of plating goes with heavy, but they cannot be put onto the wrong type of armor set. The best gear may actually come down more to preference and situation rather than a raw numbers game. However, military armor is the best protection for least hindrance to stamina. Surprisingly enough steel armor is the best for protection with additional modifications see mods section for more information. The Best Armor is actually down to preference this time around. At some future point I will try to see what the armor rating actually means, but for now it just shows which one is best. Light armors like Padded and Military Armor increases stamina costs while in use at a reported rate of Armor Rating is a rough rating of how good the armor is. Quality also matters significantly less now as the only thing that changes from lowest to max quality is the durability and as that degrades it comes at no cost to protection anymore! The only thing that affects the damage you take is the helmet, chestplate, gloves, leg armor and boots. Weapon Mods Alpha Armor Armor has actually been drastically reduced in complexity from A16 to A17 which is a very welcoming change.
