Assembly of the Advanced Battle Core.

28/30% which is good. Now to see if we can cap the Advanced Armor Core.

Capped Advanced Battle Core.

6600 Kinetic and 6600 Energy Protection is Capped.

Once more Select Crate Manufacturing Schematic and create a Schematic for a factory run of the Advanced Battle Core.
You may want a third Wearables Factory at this point to run the Advanced Battle Core Schematic alongside the Battle Armor Segment and Armor Layer Schematic.

Section 4 Crafting a Suit of Armor
After you have 11 Advanced Battle Cores you can proceed with the final step, crafting the full suit of armor.
You will also want to obtain from a Reverse Engineer a Armor Power Bit with a desired baked in stat, I will be using Critical Hit Reduction.

For demonstration purposes we are going to craft Padded Armor Chestplate Appearance. That's right appearance! what actually makes the defense is the Cores that we just finished crafting.

You will also notice that we only have Condition, no additional Defensive stats that can be added.

Add the necessary components.

The Bio-Enhancement Cartridge, Feathered Appearance Enhancement, and Armor Appearance Enhancement grant no bonus and are not necessary. Maybe a future update will provide some benefit in these 3 categories. DO NOT FORGET the Armor Power Bit, this is your one opportunity to add in a baked in stat.

Experimentation... Not Necessary

We only have Condition which has ZERO benefit in NGE mechanics since the armor does not decay.
Chapter 6 has introduced Slicing in which if your armor piece is sliced it starts to decay, it is reported to be a very slow decay so be sure to max out the condition and repair your armor often as needed.

Create a Prototype Item.


Here we have opportunity to change the appearance before finalizing with the Create Object button.

That is it, you are done. You will want to craft a matching set so be sure to craft also the Helmet, Leg Armor, Boots, Left/Right Bicep, Left/Right Bracer, Gloves, Gloves, Belt (Optional).

I hope this guide has assisted you in creating your first suit of armor and will make you more defensive in your adventure.
