−
'''Armor''' is a subcategory and type of [[apparel]] that generally offers good protection from damage, poor insulation and, in some cases, [[move speed]] penalties.
 
  
−
All apparel functions in the same way mechanically. [[Clothing]] and Armor primarily differ only in their categorization and a tendency to prioritize either damage or environmental protection respectively. Therefore, see [[Apparel]] for details on the mechanics common to all types of apparel.

 +
Armor is a type of [[Gear|gear]] that offers superior protection to [[Clothing|clothing]], and can be worn over clothing. Armor tends to carry heavier movement speed penalties than clothing, and usually do not provide good insulation against heat or cold. Default colonist move speed is 4.61 cells per second (c/s).
  
−
== Apparel layers ==
+
If left exposed with no roof, armor will [[Deterioration|deteriorate]] until it disintegrates. Like clothing, armor also slowly degrades while worn on colonists or when the wearer gets hit.
−
{{:Apparel layers}}
 
  
−
== Comparison tables ==
+
A colonist wearing any apparel with health between 21% and 50% will get the 'Wearing worn-out apparel' thought, and armor is no exception to this. A colonist wearing any apparel with health 20% or below will get the 'Wearing tattered apparel' thought, replacing the 'worn-out apparel' thought. These thoughts do not stack.
−
Apparel combinations are limited by layer and coverage - an item cannot be worn with another item covering the same body parts and on the same layer. Thus, items covering the same parts but on different layers are compatible, as are items on the same layer but with no overlap in coverage. Items that cover multiple layers conflict with items on all layers.  
 
  
−
As such the following tables are divided by layer, but note that individual items on that layer may not be incompatible if their coverage does not overlap. For example, [[flak pants]] and the [[flak vest]] which both occupy the middle layer do not cover the same body parts, and thus can be worn together.
+
Aside from the percent decreases to certain kinds of damage that armor confers, a colonist wearing armor has a passive chance of outright avoiding all damage from some attacks, as the reinforced plates can sometimes utterly deflect a bullet or a melee strike.. This will be represented by a "chunk" sound and a spark, akin to a colonist with the mining job striking a rock wall. The chance of this happening depends on the armor rating of each piece of armor.
  
−
The hands and feet, across all layers, are NOT covered by any apparel present in base game.
+
In addition, heavily armored enemies (especially Centipedes) have this same chance of simply ignoring damage, so it is advised to bring your heaviest weapons to bear against these deadly foes.
  
−
Since some armor covers multiple layers, they are present in multiple tables as well.
+
The Overview screen has an [[Overview#Outfits|Outfits]] tab that manages apparel profiles. The Outfits system provides a way to exclude colonists from wearing damaged apparel that causes mood debuffs.<noinclude>

There are 4 types of armor ratings.
 +
{| style="wikitable"
 +
|-
 +
| style="width: 8em;" | Armor - Blunt || protects against blunt trauma such those from blunt melee weapons or explosions.
 +
|-
 +
| Armor - Electric || protects against EMP damage. As of Alpha 16 this is obsolete as EMP weapons don't deal physical damage.
 +
|-
 +
| Armor - Heat || protects against temperature-related damage, mostly burns. Good against incendiary weapons.
 +
|-
 +
| Armor - Sharp || protects against sharp damage. This covers a wide variety of damage, from sharp melee weapons, to gunshots, to animal bites.
 +
|}
 +
 
 +
Each point of armor from 1 - 50% reduces damage by 1%. <br>
 +
Each point of armor between 51 - 100% provides a 1% chance to not take damage. <br>
 +
Each point of armor beyond 100% reduces damage by 0.25% and gives a 0.25% chance to not take damage.<br>
 +
 
 +
Total protection is capped at 90% damage reduction and 90% deflect chance (i.e. 260% armor).
 +
 
 +
Armor is calculated separately for each piece of armor/ apparel worn.
 +
 
 +
== Durability ==
 +
Armor takes damage when it gets hit and successfully blocks damage for the wearer.
 +
 
 +
In Alpha 17 armor now takes a constant fraction of incoming damage instead of absorbing all prevented damage. This makes good quality armor last about the same time as low quality armor.

It does nothing against melee attacks or shots from point-blank range. Additionally, it prevents the wearer from firing outside their own shield, as well (you will be notified via in-game message if you have any shooters wearing shield belts).
 +
| note        = A shield belt is most effective for melee combatants to allow them to close ground on a ranged attacker with little risk of taking weapons fire. Shields block attacks from [[deadfall trap|Deadfall traps]] as if they were ranged attacks.
