Everyone seems to hate this armor, I find it a cheap lvl 5 that actually works. I was just on shoreline and tool 3 M62 rounds center mass, armor had like 18 durability left, I out flanked buddy and found him prone in a bush heard him ads and shot his penis helmet off lol. Buddy had a meta SA58 he took from someone I went back to where I first seen him on the pmc he killed and found his shotty took that too lmao. But he was wearing a slick. My headshot with .366 AP ammo beat his higher peircing and dmg dealing rounds to this " crappy " level 5 armor. I dunno maybe it's partially bugged and takes different rounds harsher and not as harsh, I'll admit I've been thoraxed a few times from some weird angles or just not seeing someone and it happened quick but the 3 or 4 times I can recall taking hits from something like m61/62 I've survived, armor might be trashed but that's kind of what happens when armor gets shot lol.
Let me know what you think.
Along with the good and bad experiences you've had with the armor. I've had more good than bad so far.
