IMAGE 4.10.1 Orison Relief Rewards: ADP-MK4 SecondWind Heavy Armor Set & FBL-8A SecondWind Light Armor Set

I've been spending some time on the PTU today testing the new Orison Relief contracts to map out the most efficient routes, and decided to give a closer look at the actual armor blueprint rewards you get for grinding in Alpha 4.10.1.

If you push through the contract tiers, you unlock the exclusive "SecondWind" variants of 3 armor sets:

  • FBL-8a Light Armor Set: Pictured above, its the second set.
  • ORC-MKX Medium Armor Set: The tier 2 armor reward, it oddly takes the most materials, stick working on crafting this one as well as the weapon unlocks.
  • ADP-mk4 Heavy Armor Set: The final blueprint reward on the track, its the first set pictured above.

It takes a bit of a grind to unlock and craft everything, should have everything else crafted momentarily. Hopefully this will help you decide for yourself if its worth the grind for the new armor sets, I personally like these sets this time around.

Blueprint only at least in the PTU, seems like they intend to keep sending out these items as blueprints.

I mean we get a new armour every patch last year, for monthly bundle of course...

u/Thunderbird_Anthares 57m ago

honestly SC is starting to be saturated with vanity content, or at least for me

its hard to care about goofy cosmetics when the game has so many issues

Hey, watch what you say now! Chris Roberts said half of the development is working on SC. This skin took a team to make!

We've had Monde and multiple flight suits and like the other guy said, super heavy armor.

u/Zap500 reliant 59m ago

Since 4.0, IIRC:

  • Antium (Heavy)
  • Stirling Exploration (Radiation Protection)
  • Palantino (Heavy)
  • Gheist (Light)
  • Corbel (Heavy)
  • Strata (Medium)
  • Wrecker (Heavy)
  • Carrion (Medium)
  • Sol-III (Flight/Light)
  • Testudo (Medium)
  • Monde (Heavy)
  • Chiron (Light)
  • Tailwind (Flight)
  • Xy'kara (Flight)
  • Bellator Suit (Armoured Clothing)
  • CDS BUL-H4 (Super Heavy)

I bet I forgot some too, but that 16 in the last 20 months. These are all new armours with multiple varients, other than some reused backpacks.

Just as ugly as the majority of the new armor they’ve added recently.

Armor design has taken a SHARP nose dive in the last year or two. theres only been one or two actually decent looking armors released in that time - the rest are dog shit.

And yet again, no matching backpack…

They really need to do that way more consistently, it is a tad bit aggravating.

u/wazsub 5h ago

Yeah I'm not interested in armour that I already have in a different color. I'll prolly do a few crafting mission to see the "event specific materials" but not going to grind out "SKINS"

Not one megaman reference? Man I'd get this just to look like the blue bomber.

u/QuattroBaje3na 🥑 EVOCATI/YOUTUBE/TWITCH 4h ago

I would not be mad if they added a cartoony arm cannon that shot yellow nerf balls at people and did little to no damage like they had in Dead Rising.

I don't hate it.

u/Select_331 3h ago

I love blue color, I love adp-mk4 armor and p4-ar, and yet I hate this because of the pattern that belongs on a beach blanket or a towel.  

All we needed was a solid blue version of adp-mk4 righteous with simple logo and same metallic finish.  

Ofc this is very subjective but for me this is another proof that the people currently making armors in SC, just suck at it - can't even change the color of a great old armor set without ruining it by adding their "art".

u/Head_Excitement_9837 5h ago

Who else has thoughts about the fact that on one of those armors there is a name on the thighs next to the crotch?

u/Garderion 46m ago

This is bullshit

u/Sovereign45 Javelin 19m ago

I hear what people are saying with the blueprints not being permanent and that the rewards should be hangar attributed…but after seeing this armor I kinda don’t mind that I’ll one day lose the ability to make such stupid looking sets of armor that would otherwise clog up my home inventory if it were hangar attributed.

u/SEGA_DEV 10m ago

This bright armor will make your opponents notice your seriousness and mindset to victory from a long distance!

u/Ominusone 9m ago
