Soldiers Armors Long War.png

In Long War of the Chosen the available armor is similar to vanilla, with a few differences:

  • Medium Armor no longer provides an extra slot (all soliders have 3 gear slots by default now), instead it offers the best protection and all Medium armors provide one extra point of Armor over the vanilla counterparts. Each Medium Armor item has to be built separately as well.
  • Light Armor provides significantly less HP and dodge, but still provides the same mobility bonus, the grappling hook, and for the Wraith Suit, the Phase ability.
  • Heavy Armor provides less health and armor than medium armor of the same tier, but still provides the Heavy Weapon Slot and for the W.A.R. Suit, the Shieldwall ability. A Technical equipping a Heavy Armor suit cannot equip a heavy weapon, but instead can equip an extra Rocket or two extra Flamethrower charges.
  • Hero armor act as an item of its own and is separate from the base soldier armors. Their cost and stats are the same as the base soldier medium armor and is obtained the same way.

Alien Hunter Armor

If the Alien Hunters DLC is installed, the unique Ruler armors will also be available with appropriate stat adjustments. The acquisition rules are the same: only one each is obtained once their Proving Ground project is complete, and upgrading them consumes the original.
