Riot Gear is a medium to high encumbrance armor suit. Like Tactical Vest, it consists of a vest that gives additional resistances and a ballistic panel that increases damage treshold against bullets. Riot armors can also use various overcoat fabrics.
A shield can also be a part of riot armor set. It provides increased damage resistance and treshold against melee attacks and a chance to block melee attacks completely, but restricts the user to one-handed weapons.
Crafting
Riot Gear can be crafted with Blueprint: Riot Gear.
