How much better is thermograde armor over Bulkwork armor

[Sirmorte]

What are stats of thermograde armor vs. other types of armor such as Bulkwork? I don't see that listed anywhere.

Also, does the better armor increase anything such as resistance to stun, attack etc.

If you want to know how much thermograde is better by, i suggest you look at the hitchhiker guide. That should answer your question. Increasing the armor only increases your HP.

Where on Hitchhiker's guide is it? I haven't found it there.

Go on ship/simulator and the + sign on the top corner of the page should show you the armors on each and every one of the ships and how much thermograde > deluvian > methonoid increases the ship's HP by. I hope that answers your question.

'Armor' itself defined by the amount of HP does not increase resistance to stuns, but armors like thermograde and deluvian actually raise your ship's level, thus making it more resistant to stuns, but also to buffs.

example: a lvl 33 stun on a bulkwark gemini ship (lvl 26) -> 33>26 so the stun will be strong
now a lvl 33 stun on a deluvian gemini ship (lvl 33) -> 33=33 so the stun will be weaker

This is why Vega ships (lvl 10) compared to their respective items (lvl 15) are really sensitive to these; a speed actuator will greatly boost your ship, and so a stun will stun your ship really hard. :mrorange:

-in the good old days thermograde armor did double your hitpoints over bulkwark armor, and deluvian armor would double that Again.
-i think it´s still like that, but i have been away for 18 months and alot have happened to the game, so i´m not shure if it still holds???

Thermograde armor increased HP by 35% and Deluvian did it by 130%

After the Armor and PVP-overhaul updates, some changed and those data are currently unknown, but close I think.
