Default Re: Emissive Armor Classic (SE3 style)

Guarantee void if mixed with other armor types or if the shot destroys your Last armor segment


So, no, if the rest of your armor is blown away with one shot, you don't get the emission.

having only 5 EAC III is kind of lame though. One emissive armor used to be 20kT. I recomment at least 20 segments.
If you're fighting meson bLaster enemies, I suggest replacing all shields with EAC, since you'll only take (35-30) 5 damage per hit

With 20kT of EAC III, vs. 70 damage:
70-(6*5) leaves 40 damage & 6 dead EAC
two more die to bring it to
30 damage & 8 dead EAC
30 emiss.

Total: 40 damage, destroying 8 EAC. 30 damage cancelled.
You only lost 40% of your 20kT armor, from a 70 point bLast.
