# Armour

If you are just getting started, consider the fully newbie armour combo: Triple leather pants (i.e. 3 layers), triple leather jackets, 3 rusty metal pots, 3 hockey masks. These protect against most basic threats, until you need more advanced protection against higher level threats (or radiation, bullets etc...).

Use the table to customise your armour to the enemies or players you expect to fight.

## Armour table

Shows the resistances to the damage types (higher is better), the dodge penalty (lower is better), and where to get them.
