[Predator] Heavy Armor buff

[Sarah_U.]

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):
Make it so heavy armor increase flame resistance (Or so, more).
Make it so heavy armor deflects or blocks entirely a large quantity of the thrown objects directed at the wielder.

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):
Makes sense, you couldn't pierce yautja alloys with a meager knife and even less so stick it inside his/her lungs.
Generally a nice incentive to take this cursed armor which doesn't grant extra protection to your other vital areas.

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):
As per summary.

Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):
[N/A]

Neutral. personally I like the heavy armor, but I agree it's strange that a throwing knife can pierce through the heavy PLATED armor like it's butter.

From my own experiences regarding heavy armour, it seems to do the desired job fairly well (barring a strange vulnerability to thrown objects). And flame-related weapons are, generally speaking, the way to counter heavily armoured infantry-type things.

I'll give a +1 to throwing weapon resistance and remain neutral about the rest. Perhaps an acceptable option would be to give the Yautja heavily armoured boots/legs as well. (Cue ranting about lack of B18 boots.)

Hey-Hey-Hey! I have a question! WHAT kind of Armor our predators have?

Pics ahead!

I mean, I think, throwing knife can perfectly work here:


On the other, hand, I agree that you can't penetrate this one:

I mean, it can really vary from pred to pred.

The speed debuff it gives you means you'll probably need the increased armor more than before from my experience. +1
