DESCRIPTION

After the destruction of the Edaar and his near-death experience, Laphisto's armor was severely damaged—beyond repair. After his retrieval and healing process, he set about getting a new set of armor using what was left over. With the recent release of the LO-56A MKII, he opted to get himself a set, working closely with the R&D team to have it built to accommodate his unique biology. Part of his reasoning was a desire to appear more uniform alongside the common brass—to wear something that matched the evolving standard of the Order, while still retaining the personal touches that marked his history and status. The armor holds Laphisto's family crest in the center, with the Lilaste logo on the left shoulder and the mark of Clan Ordo on the right.

STRENGTHS

• Exceptional Protection:
  Fyrirdögun-Beskar plating and cortosis-weave layers provide extreme resistance to lightsabers and very high durability against blasters, projectiles, and environmental hazards.
• Force Attunement:
  The armor has been gradually bound to Laphisto through years of usage, allowing him to reinforce its structure through the Force in high-stress combat situations.
• Integrated Shielding:
  The embedded LO-VX "Va'karis" Adaptive Shield grants personal energy defense, ideal for blocking concentrated fire or protecting vital moments during battle.
• Command-Grade Modularity:
  With ports for up to three attachments (e.g., weapons, sensors, A.A.S.H. unit), the armor offers high mission flexibility and on-the-fly adaptability for combat needs.
• Custom Fit & Lock:
  Tailored to Laphisto's physiology and Force signature, making it impossible for others to wear or hijack without disabling key systems or triggering failsafes.

---

WEAKNESSES

• Audible Movement:
  Despite balanced weight, the armor's metallic composition produces noticeable sound on hard surfaces, reducing stealth in urban or shipboard environments.
• Magnetic & Corrosive Vulnerabilities:
  The armor is susceptible to magnetic interference and rapid corrosion in acidic or industrially toxic environments, which can degrade plating and systems.
• Limited Agility vs. Stealth Armor:
  While mobile for its weight class, the armor lacks advanced mobility boosters or stealth dampening found in lighter infantry variants.
• Low Resistance to Exotic Threats:
  The suit provides minimal defense against disruptor weapons, sonic blasts, and Force-based attacks, which can bypass its conventional defenses.

Hi there, I will be the judge for this submission.

So starting out your image has broken, you might want to fix that so people can see the image you've commissioned.

Secondly your balance is out of wack
Normal Plating
Unique -4 -4 Unique -4 -4
Average 0 -4 Average 0 -4
Very High +2 -2 Extreme +3 -1
Very High +2 0 Extreme +3 +2
Extreme +3 +3 Very Low -2 0
Very High +2 +5 Extreme +3 +3
Extreme +3 +8 Extreme +3 +6
High +1 +9 High +1 +7
Average 0 +9 Very High +2 +9
Average 0 +9 Average 0 +9
Low -1 +8 Very Low -2 +7
Low -1 +7 None -3 +4
Very Low -2 +5 None -3 +1
Very Low -2 +3 None -3 -2
Very Low -2 +1 None -3 -5

Thus your Normal is over by one rating and your plating is under by 5 ratings, I would suggest you rebalance both separately like I've shown here.

 

[Laphisto]

Ravenfire should be fixed, i left the plating as is, as i planed to use only the remaining beskar of his old armor to add extra resistance to his base armor stat

 

[Ravenfire]

Laphisto

Alright then.

Approved.

I'm pulling this submission due to a report.

In particular we're looking at the resistances, an armour's resistance ratings should be the rating of the entire armour, not include different ratings for different parts of the armour. The tougher or weaker parts can be noted in the strengths and weaknesses.

Please go through the ratings and amalgamate them to show one resistance per category.

Could you also explain to me how the unique armour is available to all members of the Lilaste Order? A unique armour means there should just be one of the armour, but if it's open to all members of the order then they would all be able to wear it at the same time which defeats the purpose of the unique rating.

John Locke the intent portion was a mistake due to a copy past of the template, I actually was meaning to make a new submission for a new armor here in the coming months due to his template being outdated, would I be alright in making additional changes to this armor such as adding other tech that has since been created or am I limited to just fixing the template as a whole

I don't mind if you want to rework the entire armour, and I can judge it accordingly. Would you like this armour to be moved to the pre-factory for you to work on till it's ready? Or would you be looking to update it in the immediate future?

I might have time later today, also I have another armor set this was copied from called the LO-56 MKII which has the same settings with the duel ratings

John Locke sorry for delay i had gotten sick, but iv managed to fix the armor and refine the submission to my liking
