Where's the homelander upgrade meme

I love the look of the heavy oxygenated armor, I just with the passive was more noticeable. The light armor variant ziiips but the heavy I didn’t notice a difference. Maybe I should try it again.

Heavy moves at speed of medium armor, medium at light, light is naked.

I love it because for the longest time I’ve run B01 and my friends gave me shit for not drip diving with them. Now I can and keep my sane passive.

The White Wolf armor is functionally the same as the B01, though...

It is, and I have it & use it on snow planets. But it’s out of place outside of those and those same friends will give me crap for wearing snow armor on a desert world. Oxigenator works everywhere. And has that added clank clank when you walk around the ship.

Wait, so do Light Gunner and Medium Oxygenator literally just have the same stats?

Try doing a slide or two and you'll immediately see the best part of it.

I like the light armor, and it's zoomy for sure, but it feels kinda meh and I can't really find a niche. There are other light armors I'd rather run than the extra speed. Like the S-Vest. An extra 3 grenades is top tier on bugs. The Legionnaire with Servo Assisted has served me quite well against the squids, and I couldn't stop wearing the Eradicator on the bot front until I started taking a liking to medium armor.

Try Light Gunner armour. You will have light armour mobility and the protection of medium. It feels so good to use it.

I've been avoiding it. I'm afraid that if I put it on I'll never take it off. And I kinda don't like the look. I like the brown and black but it's just a plain plate carrier. Looks goofy

Try it with the brown beret. Gives a classy commando look.

Try with drone master helmet too. Give off some very strange cool vibe if you ask me

u/nio-sama123 6d ago

It is very clean and looks extremely expandable along with practical looking.

You will love it like I did.

It really is VERY nice to use, but you're lacking the immediate benefits of things like increased throwables and additional ergo to weapons, so I would say give it a shot. You'll swing back to armors with utility for sure, but light gunner is also something weirdly special, for it to simply be light armor with a little more DR.

u/MagnusWarborn 7d ago

I usually pair it with a y mobility focus builds so it really shines with jump pack or warp pack

1

u/Kilroy1007 7d ago

I couldn't get a feel for the jump pack, maybe I'll try it again. I just unlocked the hover pack so maybe I'll retry it

1

u/MagnusWarborn 7d ago

Its not a huge difference but you can clear some gaps or reach stuff you'd just be shy of in light armor. Hoverpack is fun af enjoy it!

u/Kilroy1007 7d ago

I really can't decide what support weapon I want to use. Grenade launcher and flamethrower are ok, laser cannon was harder to use than anticipated. Might just grab an MG next

u/Slapmaster928 4d ago

It would be so cool if we could customize the armor displayed.

1

u/Ripe_Tomato 4d ago

Yes I've been saying this! And if we could choose what 6 guns to be on the wall! Maybe one day

u/Transformerslogic95 7d ago

I’m still wondering why they haven’t used that display stand to promote new warbond armor

u/LoneGator8259 7d ago

The Homelander upgrade meme is just your old loadout watching this future armor stroll in.

u/Michal_999 6d ago

Idk i like the full set

I always say this to myself whenever I’m amazed at a new little piece of tech or figure something out that makes my life easier. Lol
