SPECIAL FEATURES

• Holographic Tactical Visor: Implanted within the helmet of Rick's armor is a multipurpose tactical visor. It allows for night vision, heat signature tracking, and can even identify lightsaber wielders by detecting the kyber crystals in the blades.
• Emergency LEDs: Should Rick's visor be disabled in a dark environment, or a clear way of identifying him in a shifting battlefield be needed, there are multiple small but powerful lights on Rick's arm plates and helmet. They produce a steady blue light, and can do so for about three hours straight. They can be recharged through battery cases located inside the armor.
• Gas Filter: A small filter in Rick's helmet can prevent him from breathing in toxic fumes as long as his helmet is not cracked.

Strengths:

• Multipurpose: Rick Kaloo's armor suit is a perfect mix of qualities. It is light, durable, good at blocking out radiation and gases, and does not hinder Rick's increased mobility granted by his legs.

Weaknesses:

• Electrocuted: Due to the multiple lights and tactical visor embedded within Rick's armor, it is vulnerable to ion attacks. Untreated electrical damage can rapidly lead to the essential tactical visor shutting down, leaving Rick blinded.
• Unfocused: Despite its many capabilities, Rick's armor cannot work especially well in any one situation. It is outclassed by Mandalorian iron, phrik, and cortosis in protection, and is much heavier than songsteel armor of equivalent protections.

DESCRIPTION

After multiple desperate battles where Rick traveled from his fleet directly onto the ground, Rick finally decided to make himself a set of battle armor.

As Rick greatly appreciated agrinium's durability and relative cheapness, he made almost all of his armor out of the compound. He later decided to add a helmet, fearing that snipers may take the opportunity to strike at his head.

As a result, a final product was finally perfected. Its relatively low cost of production juxtaposes its impressive durability, which Rick has yet to test on the battlefield. Now, Rick could finally feel comfortable about leaving his fleet behind to run directly into the ground-based battlefronts.

The armor would be named The Fish Tank.
