A lot of it can also look pretty cool (hello, Vanguard set), but really, it's about trying to survive some of the harsh circumstances that will come your way on your many adventures. All Armor Stats in Starfield and what they mean There are three different pieces of armor in Starfield that you can use that will give you some kind of protection: your spacesuit, helmet, and your pack. You can also gain stats from your apparel, the standard clothes you wear beneath your armor. Main Stats You have three main stats on your armor that will cover your resistance to most of the major weapon types in the game. PHYS - physical resistance to ballistic damage and most standard melee attacks. ENGY - resistance to laser and energy weapons. EM - resistance to electromagnetic weapons. Secondary Stats The secondary stats for your armor are the ones that protect against certain elemental values. Thermal - the amount of protection you will receive from any heat source. Airborne - this protects you against airborne elements that might damage you. Corrosive - this protects you against things like acid rain. Radiation - protects you against radiation from any source. Tertiary Stats These final stats are important but do not impact armor effectiveness at all. Mass - how much your armor weighs. This is really important when carrying spare armor or picking up armor off enemies, as it can be very heavy. It should also be noted that wearing armor will mean that the mass of the armor is used against the mass you are capable of carrying. Value
