The Formal Vest is a clothing item added in the Royalty DLC. Male Nobles of Baron rank and above require either one of these, a Psyfocus vest, or power armor to consider themselves properly dressed and avoid a negative moodlet. The Female equivalent is the Corset.

Acquisition

As a complicated garment, Formal vests can only be made at tailoring benches, which requires complex clothing & Noble Apparel to be researched in order to be constructed. A Formal Vest requires 45 of any textile, and 3000 units of work.

It can also be found on Imperial Nobles, for sale at traders and as a quest reward.

Analysis

Formal vests are unique in the noble clothes in that they don't have a direct regular clothing equivalent. Instead they take the slot of a Flak vest. Compared to flak vests, even the most protective formal vests provide dramatically less protection than a flak vest, with a masterwork thrumbofur formal vest having about as much sharp protection and worse blunt protection than an awful flak vest.

Despite their superior protection, Flak vests do not meet a noble's clothing requirements however. In this case, equipping the noble with Prestige recon armor, Prestige marine armor, or Prestige cataphract armor when expecting combat is by far the superior choice, as all three both offer significant protection and meet the clothing requirements.

Female pawns will receive a mood debuff while wearing this item.
