I feel this should be easily accessible information to Dust players also, not needing to dig it out of servers or whatnot.

Maybe, maybe not. What difference does the 10hp mean for most people anyway? There's so much info in this game I guess some stuff just need to be limited to server side only.

I guess so. I kind of understand that. It's debatable that Dust mercenaries _need_ that info but it should be easily available if one wants to know. And yes, I got the answer immediately. Thank you CCP.

CCP did their bit and released the SDE. Now it's up to the community to carry it from there.
The link I provided earlier was to my own site that is gearing up to be a lookup service for DUST items and attributes. There are others making similar and better things.
A notable example is G Torq who is building a full item database with fitting tool and eventually an out-of-game fit vs. fit match generator. You can find this at http://dust.thang.dk.

Point is, the information is already out there. Go use it. :)

Grit Breather Cannonfodder PMC 919	Posted - 2014.01.10 10:49:00 - [5] - Quote As Logibro wrote below, it's more complicated than that. CCP Logibro wrote: Moves to armour. However, the actual damage inflicted will be different due to the change in resistances. Say you have a bullet that does 20 damage. Now let's assume it does 80% damage to shields but 120% damage to armour. Now you shoot it at some unlucky fool with 10 shield and 10 armour left. First the bullet hits shields and does a full 10 HP of damage to them, depleting them entirely. In order to do this 10 shield damage, the bullet had to "use up" 10/0.8 of its damage (that's 10 HP multiplied by the inverted 80% value). That comes to 12.5 damage "used up" to do 10 HP of damage. But the shield is gone. Now the bullet hits armour but only has 7.5 damage left in it. It is also more effective against armour. If we multiply 7.5*1.2 (the remaining damage multiplied by the armour effectiveness) we get 9. So the bullet hits armour and takes 9 HP out of the remaining 10 HP. Sadly the bullet didn't win this time. A 20 damage bullet against a 20 HP suit just couldn't produce enough armour damage to overcome the shield penalty. I hope this helps. :) "Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast." GÇò Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland

But yeah, there seems to be some minimal buffer under the suit. EDIT: Or, as Grit Breather said there's resistances and roundings up and down and what you have. But my original question got answered: Does the damage move to armor after shields concerning one bullet. Smeehf.

That never replenishes so use it wisely. May I ask what you are basing this on? I've been under the impression that rounding causes the visible 0 armor left to appear. Damage dealt includes decimals but the display only shows whole numbers and thus rounds down to the nearest integer. If assuming that hitting exactly 0 armor does not result in death, I would conclude that any point of damage afterwards, no matter how small would result in death, rather than a possibly arbitrary 10 points of damage. The reason I say this is because this information isn't indicated in the HUD in any way nor would really be intuitive to a player.

Scroll down a bit and note the maxHealth attribute. It's near the maxArmor and maxShield attributes. AFAIK, this has been in DUST forever. We do actually have hulls like in EVE.

It just doesn't matter. If you get to 0 Shields, 0 Armor and live to run away and fight another day, good for you. Some stats however, are critically important to be displayed in a way that not only easy to see, but easy to compare. I'm talking about weapon damage types and ranges. Hopefully CCP gets on that soon.
