Jw-21

The Shining Hope AFFILIATION: Independant OWNERSHIP: Independant /Iris Elpída INTENT: One of the gifts Iris received from her parents, before she became a Jedi. MODEL: JW-21 Rivet-Class Armor WEIGHT: 25.6kg COMPOSITION: Duraplast (Overplates) Durasteel (Overplates reinforcement) Armorweave (Underlay) Armorweave (Hood and cape) RATING: The JW-21 is capable of enduring at least five direct blaster bolt hits from any medium strength energy based carbine or assault rifles, but offers little resistance to heavy weapons fire. When exposed to projectile weapons, the Rivet-class system is capable of handling small caliber fire, but obviously can not protect from to any armor piercing rounds. When exposed to light sabers, the JW-21 offers pitiful resistance to the fact that it may slow light saber by no more then half a second. The plates offer high resistance to Vibroblades and other piercing weapons but the mesh between the plates allows little resistance to piercing weapons. It can withstand basic environmental factors, such as water, fire, and acid. But only from the neck down. DESCRIPTION: Custom made just for Iris, her parents wanted the best armor for their daughter fit for a noblewoman and a Jedi. With that in mind, they wanted flexibility, and strength in the armor. So after many designs and prototypes they came up with this, the JW-21 or the shining hope. This armor is a shiny silver, with a gray mesh in between the plates, and a black cape on the back with a black hood attached as well. It also has the family crest printed on the left breast. The armor consists of a mesh suit of Armorweave. Plates of armor are attached on places deemed needed the most protection. Each plate is made of 3 layers. The first being a tick slab of durasteel the second being a layer duraplast, and the third being another layer of durasteel to hold it all together.

You can have excellent resistance against blasters or against projectile weapons, but definitely not both.

I'd like to see the resistance lowered substantially for either blasters or for projectile weapons, or for the armor to be able to withstand no more than six hits from either.

This seems almost half as light as it should be, as I understand it anyway.

Also, although this doesn't really mean anything, we already have a Rivet class armor, just in case something like that would bother you.
