Armor Description
Operator Class Armor is something basic for those soldiers of fortune in the Galaxy fighting for a quick buck. It's light, tough, and highly modifiable, essentially its the perfect piece of standard armor for those who are just starting off and need armor they can count on and adjust to their own particular flavor of protection and combat.
Strengths. Protection wise this armor can stop your standard pistol caliber blasters and slugs, it can even take a few shots from assault rifle grade weapons. The operator is a tough piece of armor and the Fleximetal layer in its plates offer very very light protection from lightsabers, such as a sweeping glance or strike. But where the armor really shines is its gear and modularity of the gear and armor itself. Coming with tons of standard issue gear you can mix and match, take away plates, add plates, remove gear and swap it out, when it comes to the operator it's all about how YOU want it set up and how you want it to function.
Weaknesses. Obviously this armor can't stand up to large caliber weapons such as snipers and heavy machine guns. The kinetic damage alone from these sorts of attacks is enough to kill the average person or cause serious injuries. So please do not try to rush heavy gun emplacements when wearing this. You may also need to be wary of any exposed gear you have on your harness as an EMP can indeed fry these unless actions are taken to shield yourself from it. Further more lightsabers can very much cut you down with great prejudice, there are a lot of exposed areas on the armor and even the Fleximetal can't take a direct hit from a lightsaber and survive.
Summary. If you're a merc or whoever who just needs a basic set of armor and wants to stay incognito then then this is the armor for you. Use it and try not to do anything too dangerous.
