Powered Armor

Unlike light and heavy armor, powered armor requires its own battery, and comes with a fully charged battery at purchase. Powered armor uses the same type of batteries as other items, including charged weapons, and the battery for a suit of powered armor can be recharged as normal using a generator or recharging station (see page 234), or it can be replaced with a new battery when spent (see Table 7–9: Ammunition for battery pricing).

Inspired by the angel frame, devaplate is a purely technological wonder. Its featureless faceplate provides a sophisticated heads-up display that allows the wearer to see as if they possessed darkvision 120 ft. and low-light vision, includes an integrated MedObserve armor upgrade, and grants a +2 circumstance bonus on saving throws to resist harmful visual effects. Devaplate’s specialized shielding grants the wearer resistance 10 against acid, cold, electricity, fire, and positive and negative energy damage. The armor’s user-monitoring systems detect when the wearer is poisoned and auto-inject counteragents, granting a +2 enhancement bonus to saves against poison. Finally, while the wearer is not using the armor’s fly speed, they can angle the suit’s wings to project defensive fields and deflect projectiles, acting as an integrated titan shield armor upgrade.
