i was wondering if someone had the time, to make a few pictures where each one is a different PS armour, but with each picture having all 3 empires on each but all the same armour class, eg: reinforced-exosuit, agile, medium, standerd, infiltration, etc, cos every sight ive been to it has different names for different suits of armour and they all look different and its confusing.

click on this for an example i made, but i have no idea is its correct or what the name is.

that helps, but it just says stealth, light, medium and standerd, i wanna know what agile, reinforced exo, and heavy etc looks like, or are they just different names?

EDIT: Come to think of it, im assuming that agile exo etc. are extra certs u get? maybe, i dunno.

stealth = infiltration suit
light = agile
medium = reinforced
MAX = MAX

For cert costs check the calculator on the main PSU page.

ah thanks blade, but also in the cert calculator, it said that a reinforced exo cant drive a vehicle, but im sure ive seen pics of them driving vehicles, and also, u can choose between medium and reinforced, so are they the same or not?

Reinforced can only drive ground vehicles with open cockpits like the buggys. And in the menu it is shown as Infiltration, Standard, Agile, etc. Not light medium, he was just giving you an idea of the levels of armor I believe.

ok so if i wanna be a pilot and still go killing people then ill have to be infiltration, light or standered? so is it possible to change your certs as you go, so at one time u can be stealthy and drive a plane, and the other time u can go reinforced and kill people really good?

Light/Agile is best for a pilot. You can redistribute your points, but it takes some time for multiple switches (once every 24 hours).

You can switch armor if you have the right certs, but you need to reequip, probably at an AMS. But why would you drive a vehicle to a fight just to get out and slug it out on foot? Unless you drove a transport, AMS, or ANT, I suppose.
