Style and Armor

One of the quirks of the CEV 'Eris' is the style system. This system allows player to have more freedom in clothing options by introducing the ability to dodge incoming shots - if you are cool enough.


As a general rule clean, unarmored clothing is stylish while clothing that provides some form of protection is not.


Where do I get Style?

The best way to gain style is by wearing an article of clothing in every slot possible - glasses, hats, jackets and the like. Every piece of clothing has a style value between +2 (very stylish) and -2 (very unstylish). The amount of style that an article of clothing gives can be modified by whether it is stained by liquids (ie blood and oil).

Stylish clothes can be gained by finding them in various trash piles, taking them as part of the round start loadout or by purchasing them from certain vendors.

What does Style do?

Style operates differently from armor. Rather than reducing incoming damage, style allows the user to attempt to negate an entire attack by dodging.

Countering Style-based defense

A player with high style isn't invincible. Style can be worn down or even bypassed with the right tools.
