Internal name: upgrade_deflecting_armor

Plated Armor is a Tier 4 Vitality Item that provides Bonus Health. Its passive provides a chance for a bullet fired at the user to deflect, avoiding all damage, and a chance to prevent on-hit effects from bullets. If a bullet is deflected, it will fly off in a different direction, maintaining its damaging capability.

It can be purchased from the Shop for 6,400.

Notes

The chance for Deflection and On-hit Prevention is rolled individually, although Deflection will prevent most effects that On-hit prevention does. They can both trigger at the same time. This is most evident when testing Headhunter against Plated Armor

Paige - Chapter's End: When deflected, an extra projectile is created. The original projectile pierces, as normal, and a new projectile is shot out in a random direction.

Armor Piercing Rounds counters Plated Armor, causing bullets to hit and apply their effects. Since both items are chance based, Plated armor may still block bullets when Armor Piercing Rounds does not trigger.
