Remove The Helmet & Have The Bodyshield Cover The Whole Body
Whats the point in the helmet, if it breaks, you still need to break the body shield. Just make them both into one armour.
Forum Discussion
@Cabowse @ can you please explain how the helmets work to mitigate damage and if/how they get recharged? Or attach a link to a specific discussion?
@Koochi-Q @mentioned some confusion about how that worked and gave the longbow headshot example where it broke body shields.
So using that example (forget the hop up), if I were to shoot an enemy with level 3 helmet and body shield in the head, how much damage would it take to eliminate them?
Same scenario but with no helmet, just level 3 shields?
How about if the helmet has been "broken", can it be recharged? Or does the helmet always mitigate headshot damage until the player is eliminated?
Hopefully those questions make sense.
@xIronFist42x The helmet just applies damage reduction vs headshots. So all damage applies to your armor, but if you're wearing a helmet headshots have LESS of a multiplier.
@xIronFist42x So without a helmet you take 200% crit damage from a headshot. The actual damage figures vary by weapon so no point going into that. As stated there's no regeneration required with them theyre just a flat out damage reduction to the noggin.
Common: 30% reduction.
Rare:40% reduction.
Epic:50% reduction.
Legendary:50% reduction +a cooldown reduction on abilities and ultimates.
Hope this helps.
