Learn about Armor Vests in Shadow Warrior 3. Discover how they work, their different types, and where to find them to boost Lo Wang's defense against enemies.

Alright, let's talk about armor in Shadow Warrior 3. Think of it as your second health bar, giving you a buffer against all the nasty demons and goons you'll be slicing and dicing. ### Classic Armor Vests In the older games, like Shadow Warrior Classic and its expansions (Wanton Destruction, Twin Dragon), you had the trusty Armor Vest. This normal grey version would give you a nice +50 armor points. It's half as effective as the red Kevlar version, but still super useful. Just remember, Lo Wang could only carry a maximum of 100 armor points total back then. These were pretty common, often found just lying around, not even in secret spots. ### Shadow Warrior (2013) Armor When Shadow Warrior rebooted in 2013, the Armor Vest got a facelift and is now just called 'armor'. It still serves the same purpose, but the stats changed a bit. You'll find smaller chest plates giving you +35 armor and bigger ones offering +75 armor. Keep in mind, the maximum armor you can have at any one time was reduced from 100 to 75 in this version. Armor is still a bit rare, so grab it whenever you see it. ### When to Use Armor Armor is your best friend when you're up against big groups of enemies or facing off against tough bosses. It gives you that extra bit of survivability, letting you take a few more hits while you dish out the pain. So, always try to keep your armor topped up whenever you can!
