Man Parts 241 686 Posted November 13, 2018 It reduces bullet damage. It's worth it if you pvp. Saved me a bunch of times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IdealBicycle641 16 Posted November 13, 2018 Yep cool thanks. I never bother with it cause of the weight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xzDIABLOzx 157 Posted November 13, 2018 The "plate carrier" as it's named in the database (also known as the heavy vest) shows bleed (Armor) of 90% and a Ballistic (Armor) of 2 which would definitely help in pvp like Man Parts 241 said. I prefer the UK assault vest as it has better camouflage options, but it only has a bleed (armor) of 30% an no ballistic rating. I would love to see attachable pouches come to game to add to the heavy vest which I think is currently in PC version. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
