Blueprint details for Armour
Lightweight
This armour based blueprint degrades integrity reinforcement for lower mass and a global integrity boost.
Note: The mass reduction/increase is not applied for the default stock Lightweight Alloys.
The crafting cost is per 'roll'. Based on your reputation with the Engineer, the blueprint may require multiple rolls to complete.

Possible experimental effects
Angled Plating
Custom angling of plates at critical points along the ship's hull make projectile strikes more likely to glance, reducing the impact of kinetic damage at the cost of structural integrity.Modifiers
Hull boost
-3%
Kinetic resistance
+8%
Deep Plating
Increased depth of plating increases the ship's overall structural integrity, at the cost of resistance against all types of damage.Modifiers
Hull boost
+8%
Kinetic resistance
-3%
Thermal resistance
-3%
Explosive resistance
-3%
Layered Plating
Layers of advanced inert lining material within the ship's plating absorb and redistribute the force from explosive attacks, reducing damage of this type at the cost of overall structural integrity.Modifiers
Hull boost
-3%
Explosive resistance
+8%
Reflective Plating
Surface coating of advanced formulas designed to reflect and dissipate thermal energy, at the cost of structural integrity.Modifiers
