Meh, the blood dragon armor only gives you a 2% increase in power damage over the N7 armor (13% power increase with all N7 pieces and Dr. Pepper umbra visor vs. 15% from BDA). Not enough for me to sacrifice facial expressions for full on armor.

[komenusai]

Well thats cool. I personally would go in with the bonus armor just to take down the enemy two percent faster. Looks can't kill the enemy. THOUGH...that would be pretty awesome.

[ODST Steve]

I think not wearing a helmit should give you 10% in Para/Rena points.

[Varenus Luckmann]

The fact that these armors all have unique roles to play underlines the issue of them not being broken up into parts, or being covered by helmets, making them virtually unusable by a large portion of the players.

[komenusai]

Nah I think WEARING helmets should give you 10% Para/Rena Points since so many people already think wearing no helmets is the norm. Going beyond the norm should grant you a bonus.

Inferno Armor (Best Buy, Amazon Promotionals) 

- Negotiation bonus increase by 10%
- Increases power damage by 10%
- Increases storm speed by 10%

An interesting armor. It's biggest intrigue comes from it's 10% increase to negotiation. With this increase, it is easier to choose either Paragon or Renegade choices without having to earn so many points toward each respective attribute. Along with that interesting power, you gain a boost in power and storm speed. This armor is definitely unique and cannot be replicated with N7 Parts.

You can find a "death mask" on Tuchanka that gives you the 10% Negotiation bonus. I concede that the amplifier plates only give 5% power damage increase however.

Honestly I was disappointed in the armors entirely even the Cerberus armor.



I have access to Inferno, Collectors, BDA, and Cerberus



None of em are worth using imo, you can combine the N7 for almost the same or better bonuses in every instance

I agree that their lack of customization is definitely a turn off for most players. Having to constantly go back and forth to switch between armors is a hassle. Everyone would rather go out and simply have more customizable fun with their armor pieces, Which I think is what Bioware is trying to do.

But I still think that even with the customizable armor pieces, the Bonus armors would always top the N7 armor in specific areas. Depending on the players play style, these Bonus Armors can be either a great gift or a curse. In my experience the Bonus armors are as close to me as my guns. But that is just my personal experience.

How could I forget the death mask.  Stupid me. Thank you for correcting me. I'll edit it right away.

 Your Inferno Armor entry is still wrong.  The closest you can get with the N7 Armor is: +10% Negotiation, +10% Storm Speed, +8% Power damage, +5% Weapon damage (or any other Arm slot).

XD Damn I really need to get some rest. All nighters do horrible things for my focus. But thank you. I will edit once again.

I seriously hope that future DLC will include "Armour Part Packs", that was how I had hoped they made the DLC armours.

It is my hope that they are properly incorporated into the game, and not just handed over to you magically, by Cerberus.

Armors, weapons, research and items should be found in missions, bought at stores, dropped from enemies. Not just handed over in their overpowered glory like from the powers that be.

Me as well. I would love to see more armor pieces or even more powerful bonus armors.



Also I added a bunch of N7 parts so anyone may fiddle around with combinations in an attempt to boost their chances of outdoing the Bonus armors.



Not a hard task...or is it?

[ODST Steve]

I don't want knew armor parts only because they would nullify the usefullness of the bonus armors.

[komenusai]

Well I personally hope if they do intend to introduce new armor parts, that they would only enhance a specific part of battle. Like 10% increase to Reload speed, or +10% Power Duration. Something like that. If they don't than I hope they make a new more awesome set of armor. Like a God Set of armor or something XD

If you had an armor idea, what would you increase? and by what percentage? (Restrictions are Power/Shield/Health Cannot be over 20% (Respectively to each stat). Your Total can only reach 25% max. And other aspects cannot be over 10% (Can only increase 2 aspects of battle)



Will do my own later.

[mundus66]

10% weapon damage, 10% heavy weapon ammo, 25% melee damage and 5% shields. I take N7 armor over DLC armors any time (with Dr Pepper codes).

My only beef with the armour sets was that I couldn't take the helmets off. Apart from that, Blood Dragon FTW.

[NeinoRanatos]

A tintable Quarian armor set would be a fun bonus.

Perhaps for bonuses:

+15% Shields
+5% weapon ammo
+10% Weapon Dmg

However, for the +15% shields, you would get a -5% to negotiating, because everyone hates quarians.

Does upgrades effect the bonuses of these armor sets? Anyone know.

From what I can tell, Upgrades you research are seperate from armor upgrades. But in the end they are all tallied together. So in a sense, yes the upgrades you do are interconnected with the bonuses the armor gives out.

[BeyondFX]

Most of the time I use the N7 armor, but the collector, terminus, and blood dragon armor are pretty sweet looking. My only beef with them is cut scenes dont recognize youre wearing a helmet which is most notable when people remember who you are by your face, or youre drinking at a bar, or if you had liara as a LI.

In a way having a helmet is more realistic than going without for the amount of combat shepard sees. That said I usually stick to visors to see the facial expressions.

[incinerator950]

I use the Blood Dragon for my Adept exclusively, when you play games like Monster Hunter, the only expression you care about is winning the level, and those bonuses Armor give you are more important then what the Armor actually looks like and what your face looks like.



That being said, even with the Dr. Pepper gear, most N7 combinations actually fall short of the DLC Armor.



http://www.gamefaqs....53324678&page=9



I did the comparison to test out this, and quite honestly, I don't think falling short of 2-5% is worth it to watch a smile or an enraged face would be. I must be one of the few who enjoys helmets then. For damage output for Soldiers/Infiltrators/Vanguards, an N7 Armor will probably be better, for Techs, using Damage reduction form Cerberus/Terminus Armor is great, unless you've got the Collector Armor. Adepts and Techs benefit wonderfully with the Blood Dragon Armor.



I guess I'm just the emotionless person who enjoys combat Armor over my Red and Black, or pink Armor who doesn't care about reactions when my life is at stake. In these situations, I would wear fully encased Armor with a sealed helmet for a variety of situations, then again I only use an Adept Character with BDA, so it doesn't really matter.
