Phantasy Star: Eternal Story - Armor Shop

Good armor is as important as a good weapon; it just might save your life some day. Be sure to stock up, and don't be stingy! That Ultimate Frame is expensive, but definitely worth it. Be sure to pay close attention to class restrictions, and Tekkers, remember this: Only you can wear Powered Armor.

FEAT: Craft Powered Armor

You Tekkers out there might want to consider making yourself a suit of this. Powered Armor requires several craft checks and could take weeks to complete, but when it's done, you will have effectively turned yourself into a walking tank. To make Powered Armor, you need the following skills:

Craft: Armor
Craft: Weapons
Craft: Robotics
Craft: Vehicles

and the following feats:

Craft Powered Armor
Craft Special Arms and Armor
Craft Technique Weapon (not required, but strongly recommended)

Once you have these feats and skills, you're ready to begin. First, give the GM the stats you want the armor itself to have--Damage Reduction, Max Speed (it can be over 10 meters if you should so desire-Powered Armor can enhance speed), ability enhancements, etc. Add any of the above special armor enhancements as well. Next, consult the robotics, tools, and vehicles sections for any automated features you want (fire control in vehicles, extra arms, weapon mounts, or fire extinguishers in robotics, oxygen tank or a set of built-in tools in tools) and give the list to the GM. You will receive a price, and it will be hefty. If you are adding a Technique Weapon or two, it will be even heftier. Make the craft check, hope you can beat the DC, and keep on going until your armor is made. For more specifics on Powered Armor, consult this section.
