i have a question and sorry if it's stupid, cannot find an answer:
Riot body armor has 20% decreased incoming melee damage. does this apply for the specific body part or entire body (legs, etc) ?
again, sorry if it's already answered but could not find anything .
Only if the hit lands on the armor
thanks, it would make sense but I wanted to clarify this :)
also, another thing about armor, how does quality affect the stats?
is there a big difference between 5% quality and 25% quality?
almost every weapon and piece of armor has a range of what the stats can be on it, for weapons that's damage and accuracy and for armor it's the armor value
the quality is a measure of where on that range your item falls, for example if a piece of armor had a range of 10 armor to 20 armor, a 15 armor piece would be 50% quality
weapons are similar, but the accuracy and damage isn't affected by the quality, the quality is an average of the two stats
With RW armor at least, every 20% quality = 1% armor. Each armor point means 1% less incoming damage. A 50 armor piece would deflect 50% of incoming damage etc
the armor piece bonus works only for hits landed in that specific area (also look at the coverage of armor items to see what it covers). Equipping a full RW set the bonus will also increase by a percentage (for riot as an example it's 10%).
https://wiki.torn.com/wiki/Armor contains a lot of useful information about armor.
50% accuracy contributes to quality and 50% damage contributes to quality in that specific weapon range, for the armor it is 100% of armor defensive value.
so if I have an armor with this :
0.40%Yellow
is it not stopping any damage?
didn't look at that sta so far , i'm starting to read the wiki just that I don't quite get how it stacks up.
Did you read this reply? https://www.torn.com/forums.php#/p=threads&f=3&t=16478934&b=0&a=0&to=26086917
Each type of armor/weapon has their own scale for how high or low their stats can go.
Quality acts as a slider on that scale.
Mentions: question about armor
yes! thanks, i got it now.
i also read the wiki and thanks for all your patience, this is good to know since I was trying to make a choice based on incomplete info, now I know!
Edit:
I also thought that quality is something that decays over time, i'm playing a game where quality drops and you can repair the item.
