===== Special ACs =====

* The '''Cx''' ACs represent standard clothing (with C1 symbolizing absence of clothing, C2 for most light clothes, and C3 for tough clothes), while the '''Ax''' ACs represent various gradings of armor effectiveness: Superlight (A1), Light (A2), Medium (A3), Heavy (A4) and Powered (A5).

Certain creatures are assigned a non-standard Armor Class, each with their own effects:

*'''Blob''' AC reduces all damage taken to 1% per hit. A creature with such AC needs to be hit 100 times by whatever it is being hit with, including explosives. Usually, such creatures have other weaknesses that allow them to be beaten more quickly.

*'''Ghost''' AC negates all damage received. Such creatures are usually not meant to be beaten, or possess a specific weak point that allows them to be beaten.

=== Clothing resistances and damage types ===
-
Clothing may either be '''-PROOF''', '''-resistant''', or '''not resistant''', which dictate how resistant to damage and abuse those clothes are.
+
There are several damage types, which differentiate the various ways an attack can hurt - and consequently, the diverse ways clothes can protect from such damage.

Clothing may either be '''-PROOF''', '''-resistant''', or '''lack a resistance''' to each of the damage types.
-
*'''Not resistant''': The impact '''causes 1 damage''' to the affected clothing.
+
If the [[contestant]] (or any other human target) receives a certain amount of [[limb damage]] in a single attack, they may suffer from '''injuries''': [[Broken limb|fractures]] or [[Wound|wounds]]. Clothing resistances help increase the amount of minimum limb damage which cause an injury. This amount of damage that must not be reached to cause an injury, is called the '''Injury threshold'''.
-
*'''-Resistant''': The impact '''causes 0.1 damage''' to the affected clothing.

-
*'''-PROOF''': The impact '''fails to damage''' the affected clothing.

If the [[contestant]] (or any other human target) receives a certain amount of Pain in a single attack, they may suffer from [[Broken limb|fractures]], [[Wound|wounds]], [[Bleeding|blood loss]], and so on. Clothing resistances help increase the threshold and prevent such injuries lest stronger attacks occur. This amount of Pain that must not be reached to cause an injury, is called the '''Injury threshold'''.

-
** For the purpose of injury checking, the amount of Pain dealt by the explosion is checked. Then, a random @bodyaim is rolled to determine which body part should receive the injury (wound or limb loss, if applicable). The rolled body part is checked to see if there is a piece of clothing or armor that is Explosion-Resistant or -PROOF, then the injury threshold is compared to the amount of Pain the explosive attack dealt.

** Injury: [[Wound|Wounds]].
-
** For the purpose of clothing damage, explosions '''affect all of the clothes worn by the victim''', unless they are directly under another piece of clothing. Generally speaking, clothing follow a "layer" system determining what would get affected first in the event of a clothing-damaging explosion. The '''Arms add-ons and Legs add-ons''' are the highest layer, followed by '''Body add-ons''', then all other categories.
+
-
*** ''Example:'' A Kevlar vest is considered to be on a higher layer than a T-shirt underneath. A blast would only damage the vest and not the T-shirt.

*'''Explosion-type''' damage is not affected by Armor Class nor by clothing resistance. For more information on rules regarding explosives, [[Explosives rules|see here]].

** Every bullet or shotgun pellet '''causes 0.01 damage''' to clothes it hits, unless it is bullet-proof. Certain types of [[Customs:Ammunition|armor-piercing]] ammo may ignore the bullet-proof trait.
+
** Explosion-type damage is special in that it has only one Pain value instead of one for each AC; in turn, that same Pain value is the same for all ACs.
-
** If a single bullet, [[buckshot]] pellet or [[flechette]] causes '''1 [[limb damage]] or more''', the target will suffer an open [[wound]] on that area; if the hit area was already wounded, then it will cause [[Bleeding|-1 blood]], as other damage types would by striking already open wounds.

** Explosion-type damage has no corresponding clothing proofs.
-
*'''Special-type''' will '''always damages clothes''' and '''hurt the contestant''', very often with a flat damage curve, which essentially ignores completely Armor Class.
+
*'''Special-type''' damage and all of its subvariants ('''Spec-Fire''', '''Spec-Aqua''', '''Spec-Ice''', '''Spec-Elec''' and '''Spec-Acid''') usually (but not always) deal the same amount of Pain across all ACs.
-
** Such attacks always cause the affected clothing's '''Damage counter''' to be '''decreased by 1''', so be careful.
+
** Special-type damage has no corresponding clothing proofs.
-
** Check the [[Damage chart]] for the different forms of damage that Special-type attacks can cause. Certain of those are preventable, while others aren't.

** Special-type attacks do not cause injuries, but often cause their own effects. See [[Secondary effects#Elemental|this section]].

Armor Class

Armor Classes, are, in order of effectiveness: C1, C2, C3, A1, A2, A3, A4, A5. The higher the AC, the better it will protect from damage; primarily Pain and Limb damage, but it can also influence other types of injuries.

  • The Cx ACs represent standard clothing (with C1 symbolizing absence of clothing, C2 for most light clothes, and C3 for tough clothes), while the Ax ACs represent various gradings of armor effectiveness: Superlight (A1), Light (A2), Medium (A3), Heavy (A4) and Powered (A5).
    • Each Armor Class also has a LDV-X effect, where X is equal to the number in the AC level. AC A3 applies an LDV-3 effect.

Clothing resistances and damage types

There are several damage types, which differentiate the various ways an attack can hurt - and consequently, the diverse ways clothes can protect from such damage. Clothing may either be -PROOF, -resistant, or lack a resistance to each of the damage types.

If the contestant (or any other human target) receives a certain amount of limb damage in a single attack, they may suffer from injuries: fractures or wounds. Clothing resistances help increase the amount of minimum limb damage which cause an injury. This amount of damage that must not be reached to cause an injury, is called the Injury threshold.

  • Not resistant: 1+ limb damage per hit (any damage results in an injury)
  • -Resistant: 5+ limb damage per hit (resists injury up to 4 damage)
  • -PROOF: 9+ limb damage per hit (resists injury up to 8 damage)
  • Blunt-type refers to unarmed combat and Class 5 weapons that deal damage through blunt force, as well as a number of enemy attacks.
  • Sharp-type refers to Class 5 weapons with blades, or otherwise cutting/sharp methods of damaging used in a slashing motion, as well as a wide variety of enemy attacks.
  • Piercing-type refers to Class 5 weapons with blades, spearheads or similar used in a stabbing motion, as well as non-firearm weapons and a wide variety of enemy attacks relying on a forward thrust in a puncturing motion.
  • Bullet-type damage is affected primarily by Armor Class.
    • Bullet-type damage has no corresponding clothing proofs.
    • Injury: Wounds.
  • Explosion-type damage is not affected by Armor Class nor by clothing resistance. For more information on rules regarding explosives, see here.
    • Explosion-type damage is special in that it has only one Pain value instead of one for each AC; in turn, that same Pain value is the same for all ACs.
    • Explosion-type damage has no corresponding clothing proofs.
  • Special-type damage and all of its subvariants (Spec-Fire, Spec-Aqua, Spec-Ice, Spec-Elec and Spec-Acid) usually (but not always) deal the same amount of Pain across all ACs.
    • Special-type damage has no corresponding clothing proofs.
    • Special-type attacks do not cause injuries, but often cause their own effects. See this section.
