Impact of Armor and Armor Plates on Damage Received in PvP

Let’s examine the effectiveness of armor in PvP. The data in the table below may be outdated, but it gives a general idea of how defense mechanics work in the game.

Reference information required for damage calculation:

Bonus for 100% weapon proficiency – 20%
Armor condition – 100%
Armor plate condition – 100%
Weapon loaded with ammo – Crafted M1
Vepr-12 loaded – M1 Bullet
Damage to H-series armored vests – Multiplied by 0.76 in accordance with the Prospector PvP perk for damage reduction (-24%)
Damage calculation formula – Damage (with bonuses) * Armor Penetration / Armor = Final Damage.
