Lore Bites: Ultraweave (History of the Shield-Weaver)

While I don't mind it's abilities being turned into a Valor surge.... I would have preferred a side quest to actually restore the armor to its functionality in Forbidden West

I really love the design of the shield weaver after Aloy takes it apart and essentially made it in her own style and it really encapsulates her character pretty well in the way that she is both of the old world but also a large part of the new

Nice

I really wish she had have just... you know... worn the damn armor? IT WAS AN EXOSUIT. WHY DID SHE RUIN IT?

Humans never knew the technology had been already reversed by the FARO plague. 😆😆😆😆😆😆🤣🤣😂😂

We should have like a video aloy gets access to and it's just a shot clip of how much the people struggled or our civilization struggled to fight against hundreds of deathbringers as they hold down a hill. we see men die, Tanks exploding and people loosing hope, all little faith left is fought for a world that will only happen if they did their purpose and that is to be driven into extinction. Must be sad fighting back then. All you're fighting for is a world of which your civilization might not even live in or your species. You're fighting for very LIFE itself and that life might not even include man kind

i wish they had made a cinematic of Aloy building the armor. attaching the shield pieces and testing them and whatnot. would have been a cool nod to Elisabet's technical ability

Do you think we will be able to start forbidden west with our ultra weave armour

I missed much in various places in the game.
Particularly in this instance, I missed the Exo Armor carcasses.
Might I suggest a "Walkthrough", but focused on things people might miss, or not recognize.
Not really any data points, or mission targets. But things you might miss if you weren't looking for it, or just kinda glance over it.

I have to disagree about this armor being the best, sorry. Reason being, when you get a difficulty past normal, then after you get hit and it starts blinking, there is zero protection when it's recharging. Also, at the higher difficulty levels, then machines deal out higher degrees of damage, and once again, there is only so much the shield weaver will protect against, making Aloy take the brunt of whatever it doesn't absorb. You're much better off modding an outfit that works with the task needed. Personally, I mostly stick with the stealth (from the frozen wilds) until I need otherwise, and then I switch 🙂

I played the game on normal my 1st play thru.... only used the weaver outfit on the final boss. My 2nd i played my new game + on hard, using the shield weaver outfit my entire play thru... it was very fun. And despite the claims, I found it useful in Frozen Wilds as well, all you do is snipe the control towers safely out of their AoE that disables the outfits shields. And it kept me alive during fights with Scorchers, Frost and Fire claws well enough! My 3rd play thru I will most likely use one of the armors found in the cut. :)

Not sure why they cared about funding so much, the god damn world is ending and all you can think about is money smh.

The 1 dislike is from the person that manufactured the armor.

I second another comment...
Random, set up a discord!

this is a realy good armor indeed, especially when you play for the first time and finally get a reword that at some point nobody can kick your as for some time ) but going all the way again on the hard levels you realise that in the game when you use stalker mode a lot the armour that makes such noise doesn't seems like a good idea. with the nora hunter armor though (especcialy tthe one you can get after DLC came out you can be silent and hide from the huge machine even during the fight).

If you look closely you’ll notice that the Shell-Walkers use the same technology.

I was a bit dissapointed when realized that Aloy just scrapped original (and marvelous looking) exosuit for parts. But in the end this totally worth it.

Honestly, I really like the story behind Shield-Weaver
But I also know a certain Vanguard Captain,who is very dear to me, who prefers to take his hits,not roll around them, and I would prefer to hand that armor to the guy, so I can be sure he will be alright

Can you just imagine the scene? Like, Erend tries the new armor Aloy gets him and the first thing she does is shoot him in the face with an arrow to show armor`s abilities

If it’s stitched to her Nora outfit then it implies that it can be restitched to the chieftain outfit.

It also protects against corruption and bio-mass consumption, right? (which iirc are the same thing)
