Stalcraft Wiki: Combined

Armor is your first and final line of defense against the myriad threats of the Zone. In Stalcraft, your choice of protective suit does more than just mitigate bullet damage; it defines your operational role. Heavy armors like the Centurion or Super-Heavy suits provide unmatched Bullet Resistance and Vitality, making them the gold standard for frontline combat and Clan Wars where staying power is paramount. However, this protection comes at the cost of mobility and often lacks the specialized resistances needed for deep exploration. Scientist suits, while fragile in a firefight, offer high-level protection against Radiation, Biological, and Thermal hazards, permitting access to 'dead zones' where the most valuable artifacts are hidden. Combat and Combined armors seek to find the middle ground, offering a balance of speed, protection, and utility for the versatile stalker. Our wiki breaks down the Effective HP (EHP) of every suit, showing you exactly how much damage you can withstand when paired with different artifact builds. We also detail the upgrade paths and barter requirements for every tier, from basic newbie rags to legendary master-tier exoskeletons, ensuring you can plan your progression effectively.
