Description: Verdun's custom Armor is a Modified Black and Red version of Mandolorian Armor, Customized to his needs and efficencies. Verdun's armor has some parts mixed with vibrometal allowing for some Sabe resistance, The gauntlets however have full vibrometal attatched to the outer half of the them to allow for attempts to block saber attacks. The main body of the armor is armored than traditional Mandolorian Armor, providing verdun more protection, whilst attempting to save for mobility.

*Features:
Helmet:

- HUD of Helmet allows for assistance when Targetting and firing
- It also provides data viewing when the user initiates it.
Gauntlets:
-
outer halves of the Gauntlets are armored with Vibrosteel for protection and attempts to block against saber attacks
- Vibroblades extendable and retractable from both gauntlets to allow for melee attacks
- grappel cable can be shot from left gauntlet
- small wrist rocket can be fired from launcher on right gauntlet
Back:
- Jetpack allows for user to jet pack upwards, hover, and elevate when needed. The Jetpack also has one rocket that can befired (however it's considered a last ditch effort).

Alright, Feel free to Critique and look over the Armor as you will, If it is Accepted simply say so, If it isn't please feel free to list the reasons as to why. I attempted to make the armor , along with it's information out of Information of the Old Republici-sh era that Dotr is around, however lack of extensive knowledge of the era and it's materials doesn't allow me more information to tell about the armor and it's materials, so please forgive me on that end.

So at a glance i have two major critiques.
1. Beskar, or Mandalorian Iron, is no longer canon, so is unusable.
2. You have wayyyyyy too much lightsaber resistant pieces on this suit. An acceptable amount is somewhere between 1-3 small areas.

- What is a material I could replace for Mandalorian Armor?
- (Kind of thought this yeah) I'll lower it
EDIT:
Neutered the Saber Resistance to a minimum of some small parts of the helmet, however What is a material I could use since Mandalorian Armor is no longer canon, like Durasteel or some other metal?

The go to materials are Cortosis or Phrik.

Also, to be honest this armor seems fairly generic, and i dont really think it needs a tech profile. Might i suggest using this instead.

Edit: and just noting on your CS what plates are made of LS resistant materials.

Ah, I saw many others admitting their Armor for their part Mandalorian characters so I was lead to believe my armor needed to be accepted.

I'll use the layout presented by Silver face, thank you

Just as a future reference: That's not an acceptable way to measure defensive ratings for armour on this site, especially as we've got a set rule regarding armour and blaster penetration.

And a number system like that, eight tenths or whatever, is fairly pointless, as it gives no references or examples at all. Like, what does 8/10 melee resistance mean? Is it stab proof? Bludgeon proof? Do you not hurt if someone bangs your helmet hard enough to make your head bounce around inside it? Use details as much as you can, because any form of vagueness in your write-ups are bad.

I apologize, this was my first time attempting to make a Custom profile, I'll be sure to change it for future reference.

also there are a few mandalorian armor designs already approved so you might just want to use theirs instead of trying to create one that only you will use.

Mandalorian CCT Armor
Mandalorian Tactical Armor
Mandalorain MK II
MandalArmor Guild "Huskarl" class armor

Not sure if the last one is for general ownership but i'd check with it's creator since he said something about making a "standard" variant. also if you use someone else's tech then its good to let them know just so that you aren't taking a one-of-a-kind pieces as well as letting them know that someone appreciates their work and ideas.

As we already have four generic Mandalorian Armour systems that are for public consumption already, I don't see any particular reason for me, or Clayton, to approve a fifth.
