Armor

A BepInEx mod for R.E.P.O. that gives you percentage-based damage reduction from enemies based on your Health and Strength upgrade levels.

What This Mod Does

Your Health and Strength upgrades now contribute to a passive armor effect. The higher the damage you receive, the more the reduction matters — making tanky builds more viable in late-game runs.

How It Works

Formula: taken = baseDamage × (1 − combinedLevel × reductionPerLevel)

Health	Strength	Combined	Reduction (default)	50 dmg hit →	100 dmg hit →
1	0	1	2%	49	98
3	2	5	10%	45	90
5	5	10	20%	40	80
10	10	20	40%	30	60
15	10	25	50% (capped)	25	50

No stats = no reduction. You must invest in Health or Strength to benefit. Minimum 1 damage is always dealt.

Configuration

Settings are in BepInEx/config/headclef.Armor.cfg or in the in-game mod config menu:

Key	Default	Range	Description
Enable	`true`	—	Toggle damage reduction on/off
Reduction Per Combined Level	`0.02`	0.005–0.1	Reduction % per combined level (0.02 = 2%)
Max Reduction	`0.50`	0.1–0.9	Maximum reduction cap (0.50 = 50%)

Requirements

BepInEx 5.x installed for R.E.P.O.
Character Stats — required dependency

Installation

Install via Thunderstore (recommended) — Character Stats will be installed automatically.
Or manually: place both Character Stats.dll and Armor.dll into your BepInEx/plugins folder.
Launch the game — config file is generated on first run.

Multiplayer

Damage reduction runs per-client — only players with the mod installed get the armor.
Does not affect other players or enemies.
