NOTE: This is only so I do not forget for when the suggestion site comes back online.

HEAVY ARMOR

Heavy armor is a chest equipped item that goes OVER your standard chest. heavy armor has two main features, the first a secondary healthbar depending on the armor level, and the second being an increase to all equipped armors gear armor. This comes at a cost of Stamina drain increase, and the block of one slot in both equipment and throwable slots.)

Heavy armor can not be repaired, once its HP reaches zero it breaks and you loose it and will need to buy or equip a new set. all heavy armor has 5 levels with each level of it increasing its HP by 25% of its base HP value. and its DR by 5%

Rarely Human and Zombie enemies will spawn with armor, they will drop it if you kill them with headshots.


Heavy armor types

Iron
basic heavy armor can be bought from any craftsman.
HP: 200 (500 max)
DR: NA (30% max)
slot restriction: blocks equipment and throwable slots
stamina drain: +50% parkour stamina drain.

Titanium
Improved heavy armor, access given after getting to the central loop.
HP: 400 (900 max)
DR: 15% (45% max)
Slot restrictions: same as iron
Stamina drain: +25% parkour stamina drain.

Kevlar
Rare pre fall armor. Only one crafter master knows, and they only spawn in new game plus.
HP: 600 (1500)
DR: 20 (50% max)
slot restrictions: same as iron
Stamina drain: +10% parkour stamina drain.


Each armor has an upgrade slot, upgrades have 3 levels each and require new titanium plates (legendary craft part.) to make. kevlar and Titanium have two mod slots though all armor mods are counted as the same type.

Ablative plating
+10%/+20%/+30% ranged damage reduction.

Weighted plates
+light, medium, heavy stagger resist.

Improved welding
+10%/25%/50% Armor HP

The idea is good for those who need more Armor. But personally, nothing I would use myself.

Anothrer thing is it is flat DR, where boosters and basic armor provides specific DR.
