Diamond Shell is really not worth it anymore. The main strength of Diamond Shell was its synergy with kits (More resistance = The more turns +132/+144 HP can last). Now that repair kits are no longer a thing, it's really not that good anymore.

Oh, and don't even get me started on those Resistance to Zero pads...

I was playing with it on my brother's account (I was grinding for him) and it's the only mythical torso he has. So naturally I tell him to play it. However it's just flat out bad. Auto loss to resistance pads, health is way too low, OR resistance is too low. One can argue both are really. it needs 200 - 250 health if it's gonna only have 20 resistance. Battles are very fast now, 20 resistance is nothing, and every heat/physical mech you face will drain that pathetic resistance. Diamond shell is the worst torso hands down. Galaxus model A might be a better alternative.
This item may need to be completely redone. Better stats wouldn't hurt.
I don't mind helping in redesigning (because I want it to be done right, and the devs can't seem to do that). I can crunch some numbers and tell you an adequate amount of resistance and health (and even stats may be moved around). Of course I wont waste my time if it wont be implemented. :roll:

I met an opponent who used the diamond shell with no hp modules or armor modules. It had 220 hp I think? I killed them in 1 turn using Backstabber mk 2 and death Punch mk 2. It was kinda sad. Not much of a powerhouse. Then again I think Metrolens has it far more worse then diamond shell....

It has 120 health and 20 resistance. But yea even with 400 health or 500 they dont last very long.

Maybe get the resistance of Diamond Shell to 24 and have 200 hp.
Even increasing the heat/energy capacity to 125?
