Instead of purchasing the significantly less expensive heavy armor from the Olde Earth store, I saved up 25k credits (which is a lot at level 3) to purchase the helmet from the trooper store. I did this because I just wanted to purchase one set of armor, instead of purchasing the cheap set, then the middle set, then the high end set. I *thought* I was going to be saving money in the long run.

Much to my dimsay I found out, via someone with much higher appraisal skills, that the Cybernetics Squadron helmet I had purchased was inferior to the Vellian full helm that was avaliable for 1/3 the price.

Because Heavy armor is not currently player craftable, it can still be upgraded (if I ever manage to do enough errands) After being fully upgraded would both the vellian helmet and the cybernetic squadron's helmet have equivalent protection (capped out)? or did I just waste my money on an overpriced tinfoil hat?

Look on the bright side!

$25k isn't that much!

It's worth keeping in mind, though, that poor protection for one item might not be the poor protection for another. They all work in ranges. So helmet 1 might be poor, but on the low end of poor, while helmet 2 is on the high end of poor.

It's also worth keeping in mind that some items might have boons that others don't, even if they aren't registered via SENSE. You might also want to check the weights of the items.

That and the cyber helm just looks cooler.

I've added a small stamina and tactics bonus to the item, since it makes sense.
