Default Re: [Supers/Ultra-Tech] Reflex Bodysuit Superhero/Villain Uniforms?

Dont know if the Reflex Tacsuit is in scope for what you are asking, but that is a nice bit of gear for firefighters, SWAT, etc. It would certainly help first responders who have to clean up after super-powered battles. Combined with a Light Exoskeleton, and you might even see building repair fast enough to keep up with folks like the Hulk or Rhino...

Plus, you know, those hits aren't from unnamed mooks making unaimed attacks with their pistols. They're generally not from pistols or other firearms, even. They tend to be from attacks by named villains, that could easily be Deceptive Attacks bringing down his Dodge score.

The only exception is that he sometimes does take punches when mooks dogpile him, but perhaps even that could be covered by the group of mooks all taking DA to cover them surrounding him hindering his mobility... each one would get a lower chance to hit in the first place, but they could lower his Dodge to the point that each hit has a reasonable chance.

Don't forget that Aunt May clobbered him with a baseball bat one time, because his spider-sense didn't register his own aunt as a threat to his safety. XD

Well, Dodge isn't going to help you no matter how high it is if you don't actually roll it... ;-)
