Impact ResistanceNone / Very little - You'll be feeling the entire bulk of the hit / bullet as it impacts you. Depending on the caliber of the round this will most likely bruise and crack multiple bones inside your body.
Moderate - The bulk of the hit or bullet will be reduced slightly. Most shots will leave bruises but it will require a higher caliber round, most likely of a 5.45x39 or higher before the shots start cracking bones.
Intermediate - The bulk of the hit or bullet will be reduced significantly. It will require at least a .45 ACP round before the shots start leaving bruises and will require at least a 7.62x39 or higher before the shots start cracking bones.
Advanced - The bulk of the hit or bullet will be reduced a very large amount. It will require at least a 5.45x39 round before shots start leaving bruising and at least a
7.62x51 before shots start cracking bones.
Extreme - The bulk of the hit or bullet will be reduced an extreme amount. It will require at least a 5.56x45 before shots start leaving bruises and at least a 7.62x54 before shots start cracking bones.
Tier 1 -Chain-Link Anorak: Simply chain mesh sewn into the anorak's fabric. It provides no protection against bullet penetration. Provides no anomaly protection. [Kevlar Grade - N/A]
Reinforced Trench Coat : A trench coat with a basic police-grade bulletproof vest sewn inside. It halts penetration against up to a .45 ACP, but provides very little protection against the impact of the bullet itself. Can take one .45 ACP round before the possibility of failing. Provides no anomaly protection. [Kevlar Grade - Type IIA]
Visor / Solace Suit : A specialized reinforced trench coat with a closed respiratory system attached along with a visor helmet. It provides slightly enhanced protection compared to the reinforced trench coat meaning it halts penetration against up to a .357 Magnum, but once again provides very little protection against the impact of the bullet itself. Can take one .357 Magnum round before the possibility of failing. Provides no anomaly protection. [Kevlar Grade - Type II]
Tier 2 -IO7 : A BDU with a Kevlar overlay which includes a rubberized filter gasmask. It halts penetration against up to a 5.56x45 rifle round, and also includes a single steel trauma plate to provide moderate protection against the bullet's impact.

Although it includes upgraded protection, it sacrifices none of its anomaly protection and retains the moderate anomaly protection of a standard sunrise. Can take one 7.62x51 round before the possibility of failing. [Kevlar Grade - Type III]
Stealth Sunrise Suit - A light-weight, fire retardant rubberized protective suit which also includes a rubberized filter gasmask and generation one night vision goggles.
