Armor: Sphere Gauge Armor

Sphere Gauge Armor still falls under the technical specifications of a dress sphere, but are specifically designed as full-protection suits against all physical, magical, and environmental elements. These are the second best, and second most expensive pieces of armor available to the General Army. Sphere Gauge Armor is not capable of providing full HP protection from elements, but works really well using internal crystalline fragment cores throughout the suit to absorb and mitigate the damage, while an integrated tactical helmet with a visor further assists targeting in the field. This is an advanced piece of technology that must be powered by a rechargeable Leray crystal core of small size.

Mechanics & Inner Workings

This armored suit is one of the few most advanced technologies in the entire world, given the rapid technological expansion. Sphere Gauge armor is still considered dress spheres only because they can still fit inside of a compression capseul. The inner workings of these suits are too advanced and complex to be described on paper. Most attend entire classes learning about how to use, wear, and maintain one.

Significance

This advanced suit uses a new process that mixes electrical energy that is generated from Leray energy, providing tactical support for soldiers in tough conditions, including natural magic/elemental resistances that are better than any other dress sphere offered. No matter their nature however, they have not been tested against the use of dark magic.

Rarity

The components and make up of this armor is highly complex and expensive, while the suits themselves are not available for sale on the market. Sphere Gauge Armor is only authorized for use by the General Army and no other faction. 75,000 CR is not a large price to pay for one of these suits, but the General Army consists of about 3,600 active soldiers ready for active combat, while the suits themselves can break down or wear over time due to the use of electronic circuitry. Therefore, an average budged for these suits is estimated to be 270,000,000 CR for the initial project.
