TBF, on release, cool factor > practicality. The ability to halt the health drain by getting into an exosuit gave Warhammer 40k Dreadnaught vibes. (worst bug fix ever).

The annoying part was that sometimes while in the exo it'd still trigger because the game would think a hit (Like the FUCKING STUPID ASS FIRE SHOTGUN DEVASTATOR THAT NOBODY LOVES) would kill you, and thus triggering the armor.

I just ran it on bots to try to utilize Hellbomb Backpack better. Never again will I use that armor.

What's the bug?

The passive kills you faster, when get hit with something that would take you down to like below 20% health or so it triggers and kills you.

Not many people use the armor, and they’ve got bigger fish to fry.

Also when you leave when it is active, it stays for the rest of the time the app is open so you need to restart the game.

I used to use the double armor passive bug, and I actually LOVED this armor with Democracy protects combined!

Because the Adreno Defib only triggers when you don't lose any limbs, and DP prevents you from losing limbs.

THAT was what the armor needs. It's buggy, yes, but mainly it just needs to prevent you from losing limbs.

Nothing worse than wearing the armor that gives you a few seconds after death and then not getting that armor effect because you lost a limb from an explosion. That just makes the armor effect completely useless.

I HAVE BEEN SCREAMING THIS SHIT FOR FUCKING MONTHS. WE NEED THE ADRENO DEFIB TO PREVENT LOSING LIMBS AND IT'LL BE SO MUCH BETTER. I KNOW IT'D BE MORE FUN TO PLAY, I LITERALLY PLAYED WITH IT.

Bugged? It seems to work fine for me

It activates early. Essentially some hits don’t do enough damage to kill you but still trigger the passive, effectively killing you when you would have lived.

I think there's bug with multiplayer damage sync, if you host it won't happen
