− | + | With low resource costs, accessible research, and the ability to be worn with duster, Flak Pants can provide useful protection in the early game. It can be used to protect the legs from harm. Jackets and shirts do not protect the legs, and damage to the legs can severely impair colonists, so this is a good option to protect colonists. However the penalty of -0.12 c/s to movement speed can make it less valuable for day to day life on pawns that need to walk around often (e.g. Growers). | |
− | + | Unlike [[flak jacket]]s, they are not made obsolete mid-game by the supply of [[devilstrand]], and instead [[pants]] require late-game materials like [[Hyperweave]] or [[Thrumbofur]] to compete. However they do come with a movement penalty, and they take up both the Skin and Middle layers meaning that while they can be worn with a duster, they cannot be worn with [[plate armor|plate]] or power armor of any kind, such as [[Recon armor]], [[Marine armor]] or [[Cataphract armor]]. These factors can make their abandonment worthwhile even before late game materials are available. | |
− | + | The exact protection of the legs offered by flak pans vs pants of varying materials and armor is reliant on the interactions between [[Armor#Armor Rating|Armor Rating calculations]] and is currently unclear. | |
