How armour works, and every piece ranked →

How this works

Stopped is the share of the damage this piece takes off before it reaches you. It is a multiplier, not a shield: 70 % stopped means a round that would have done 100 does 30, every time — armour never runs out.

Shock is tracked separately because armour is often much better at one than the other. Shock is what knocks you unconscious, so a piece that stops the killing damage but little of the shock still leaves you on the floor.

Bleeding is not a percentage. The game rolls for a cut from the blood damage that got through, so a piece that passes none of it cannot open a wound on the part it covers.

These numbers stack with the weapon, not against it — start from the round's damage on the weapon pages and take this share off. How fast the piece itself falls apart is a separate system, covered in the gear guide.
