Initiative Armor

Initiative Armor is a four-piece set of armor in Mass Effect: Andromeda.

Initiative Armor Set	Initiative Recon Armor Set	Initiative Spearpoint Armor Set

Description Edit

Standard-issue Andromeda Initiative hardsuits are designed for exploration as much as combat, combining jump-jets, high-grade external and internal sensors, and a variety of atmospheric filters with the usual kinetic barrier generators and ceramic armor plating. Personnel equipped in these suits can enter and leave alien biomes without fear of contamination-or hostile wildlife.

• At Ranks III & IV, the existing description changes to remove the last sentence and replaces it with the following text: "Upgraded hardsuits record vast amounts of environmental data and have increased damage absorption capacity."
• At Ranks V - X, the existing description changes to remove the last sentence and replaces it with the following text: "This particular suit has been customized according to specific hazard data gathered from the Heleus Cluster."

Types Edit

Ranks I - X are named Initiative when the four armor pieces are crafted.
When the four armor pieces are found in-game:

• Ranks I-II are named Initiative.
• Ranks III-IV are named Initiative Recon.
• Ranks V-X are named Initiative Spearpoint.

Note: There are no differences between the found versions compared to the crafted versions (other than visual).
