Strengths:
+Beskar is mixed with carbon making it lighter than normal
+Due to Terentatek hide, Kylo is extremely resistant to most force abilities wherever there is armor
+Kylo is extremely resistant to all gases and toxins
+Kylo can see in a full 360 direction around him
+Armor is coated with reflec warping all radar and scanner signals
+Helmet and gauntlets are lined with rubber, protecting all electronics from EMP
+Hidden retractable wrist blades give enemies a surprise attack
+Armor is extremely resistant to lightsabers and blasters.
+Kylo has a Ysalamir hidden on him at all times making the force unusable in his presence of close range.

Weaknesses:
-Gaps between armor is open for attacks
-basic EMP blasts will do nothing, but a really big EMP blast could knock out the electronics
-Kylo is vulnerable to the force where there is no armor
-If the toxic saber darts are damaged, the toxins could leak onto the skin causing issues.
-Cutting his flame thrower hose could spill flammable liquid onto him
-Armor has no protection against elements except for the cold and that's due to the hide being naturally able to deter cold.
-Rocket can be shot on wrist causing explosive damage.
-Kinetic defence is average, making things thrown at Kylo could injure him.


DESCRIPTION
As Kylo grew older and more mature, and more experienced within the Mandalorian Culture, Kylo chose to redesign his Beskar'gam to be more brutal, and offer more protection that compliments him as a Mandalorian warrior that he is. This armor set was far more advanced than his last set and would make him lethal against any opponent. The Armor is also designed to easily hold all weapons of his such as his Twin Westar Blasters, his Beskad, Throwing Knives and blaster rifle. The armor is designed as front line defence against force users packing Terentatek hide and ysalamir on him at all times. As well the armor is also designed to be extremely resistant to lightsabers and blasters while being light in weight. It was 100% designed to be a great defence against force users, and ultimate protection in his clans habit of war and battle.

Good Morning [member="Kylo Kyr'am"],

This is quite an armour submission you've put together here. So, let's get started!

Firstly, as far as the resistances go this armour is significantly overpowered, even for a unique set of armour. I would recommend that you look at scaling back the resistances. Of course, if you wish to keep the resistances as they are you can, but that comes with the warning that the armour in its current form could easily be reported and sent back to the factory for a more detailed review.

lethal punches

You refer to Lethal punches a few times, so could you explain that? As I understand these are in effect knuckledusters, which don't make punches lethal, just do more damage with each punch.

There are also some issues I wish to bring to your attention in your strengths and weaknesses section. In particular,

Armor is coated with reflec warping all radar and scanner signals

Reflec doesn't warp all radar and scanner signals, in fact, according to Wookie all it does is it "made the troopers harder to detect" Even a full cloaking system can be detected by advanced enough sensors. Furthermore the Wookie article also states that reflec is used to warp EM signals used by passive scanners, not active systems such as Radar. I would recommend you alter the language to something similiar to the following:

The armour is coated with reflec, making it that much harder for standard passive sensors to detect.

The armor is designed as front line defence against force users packing Terentatek hide and ysalamir on him at all times.

At no other point in the write up for the armour did you mention a Ysalamir, could you clarify where the Ysalamir is, and include it in your list of strengths and weaknesses. Also,

Armor has no protection against elements except for the cold and that's due to the hide.

The wookie article doesn't mention a resistance to cold. Could you let me know your source for this? Also, having a resistance to cold, or not being weak against it seems to counter your resistance of low to elemental. I would recommend splitting the resistance rating into two, one for heat and one for cold so you can break this up to make it align to your explanation.

Big Enough EMP blast could knock out the electronics

This weakness seems counter to your high resistance against EMP/Ion attacks. Could you clarify that a little? As I'm reading it you seem to mean that a powerful enough EMP can shut down the armour, in which case could you clarify that in the write up to avoid future confusions? However, you also have noted that

Helmet and gauntlets are lined with rubber, protecting all electronics from EMP

which seems to run counter to your weakness. I would recommend going back to clarify this, just to make life easier for any future opponent you face.

At several times you also use the word 'immune'. On a whole we don't like that word simply because of the connotations which come with it. Extreme resistances are extremely high, but they are not immune. For example, if that were so then a capital ship with an extreme defence would be unkillable. I would recommend you tone down the language some.

As always these are all just suggestions, and if you wish I will approve the armour as is, however, this may result in the armour being reported as I have already mentioned. Once you have read through my post and decided what you want to do please tag me back.

Thank you for making the changes.

I notice that you haven't adjusted the wording of the Reflec and the rubber. Could you confirm you'd like to keep the wording as it is?

The same with your resistances, although they're still on the high side could you confirm that you're happy with them as it is?

Also, I did have one question

Ysalamir pet that hides in one of Kylo's Terentatek hide/leather pouches on his belt.

The only was that a Ysalamir are shown to survive is inside a nutrient frame, which according to wookie is primarily carried on someone's back. A Ysalimir couldn't fit into someone's pocket and wouldn't survive if put there. I'd recommend adding a nutrient frame to the back of the armour here.
