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).

Of this armor's 5 upgrade slots, 2 of them can only be used to hold aeon stones.
This clockwork exoskeleton was the first powered armor designed for the Azlanti Star Empire military. Like other Azlanti armor of the time, it has no breathing apparatus incorporated, though it does have a rudimentary temperature-control system. Instead, it has two upgrade slots in the helmet that can be used only to hold aeon stones. These slots usually house clear spindle and iridescent spindle aeon stones, negating the wearer’s need to eat, drink, and breathe.
