When playing Helldivers 2, gamers must make all the necessary preparations if they want to achieve Super Earth's goal of galactic freedom. Having offensive options when going up against the units of the Terminids, Automatons, and the returning Illuminate is key, but defensive ones are just as important, which is where armor comes in. The game has many different types, with each having at least one or two passives tied to it that provide helpful benefits, like damage reduction or additional ammunition. While the current state of Helldivers 2's armor can be seen as balanced in terms of gameplay, perhaps it may be time for them to see some form of change, specifically in the passive ability area.
