Armor Rating

Summary

Armor Rating (AR) is a PhysStat within Chromed Out 2. This value is generally used to refer to, collectively, just how heavily armored you are altogether, and is largely factored in when we consider the effects of an explosion, or some sort of physical altercation involving a character.

When it comes to very specific occurrences in which a character sustains a gunshot, we typically handle the effects by looking at the type of weapon used, the caliber of the round, the range from the target, where the person was shot, and what level and durability their armor is at.

In order to streamline the process of understanding whether someone is heavily or lightly armored, the Armor Rating system largely just tallies up a collective amount of "armor rating" attached to each armor equipment item, since there are many slots.
