+ Energy + Use of different materials and alloys, including energy dispersing Cortosis, grants the plates remarkable energy dispersion capabilities focused towards laser and plasma weapons.
+ Kinetic + Use of different alloys give the plating remarkable durability against kinetic attacks. The plates hold up well to prolonged testing with slugthrowers and other weapons.
+ Lightsabers + Much the same with dispersing the incoming energy bolts, the use of Cortosis and durable alloys grants the plates outstanding performance against lightsabers.
+ Heat + Duravlex in the blend grants the plates improved resistance to weaponized heat, allowing it to withstand most common flamethrowers.
+ Re-plates-able + The harness system does allow for the removal of damaged plates, though in combat this may not be an easy task to undertake.
- Elemental - The plates also conduct lightning alarmingly well, beware of water and force users.
- Disruption - While the bodyglove beneath is resistant to Disruptor weapons, the plates offer no viable protection from the attacks.
- Cold - While well resistant to weaponized heat, the cold can make the armor brittle where heat fails.
- Snap - The harness system can be a liability, as damage to the harness will result in possible armor failure such as loose/open plating, or entirely losing the plates.
- The Median - This particular plate setup is better than the Bare Minimum, but it still leaves gaps between the plating and leaves the legs largely unprotected.
The original iteration of the Helljumper Bodyglove was of simple but functional design. Meant to keep the user alive during a firefight while keeping them flexible as well as providing a system to adopt plating. Sikkol Cull provided the schematics after the fall of his clan to better all of the mandalorians that came after them, wanting to provide everyone a fair chance at basic gear to help keep them alive.
The schematics for the Medial plating arrangement comes from the need for more coverage without sacrificing significant range of motion achieved by the previous iteration. A few more plates were added as well as ablative plating, bolstering the EMP/ION resistance slightly in the process as a more cohesive energy dispersion occurred throughout the plates covering the body. Magnetic hardpoints were attached for knives, small blasters, or extra gear as well.
