Military Armor: Plate Carrier and Helmet

Last checked · Checked against the development build

How does armor work in Stillskin Forest?

Hold the armor and press fire to wear it; it leaves your bag and shows on your character. The Plate Carrier absorbs 40% of each hit and the Military Helmet 15%, until their durability (300 and 150) runs out. Press K to take it off. Both are only found at Blackpine Airfield.

How it works

  • Each worn piece takes its share of a hit, and that much is taken off its durability. Wearing both, a 20-damage hit costs you 9 health.
  • At 0 durability a piece breaks and is gone.
  • Taken-off armor goes back in your bag with its remaining durability, or onto the ground if your bag is full.
  • If you are knocked out of the run for good, what you wore drops where you fell.
  • The HUD shows each worn piece's condition above the health bar.
