Helldivers 2includes a variety of different armor types, players able to base their moment-to-moment gameplay on their equipment as a result.

However, those who prefer to sneak their way around a fight have been left “salty” after discovering a new armor set, despite claiming to be stealth-focused, is actually not.

“Blend into snowy environments with perfect camouflage. The enemy will never see you coming, until it’s far too late. Ah the sweet smell of stealth.”

The original poster captioned the thread, “New armor set is a stealth armor that doesn’t make you stealthy, it makes you throw farther. That’s like an apple that tastes like bacon.”

Other players were quick to chime in, sharing similar sentiments as the OP. One Helldivers fancommented, “Not surprising. I’m pretty sure the one with the scout passive is the blue & orange one, the one that doesn’t blend in with snow!”

Anotheradded, “I’ll admit that I’m pretty much supportive of most decisions AH makes but armor passives are not one of them. I really wish we had more variety when it came to these and didn’t just reuse old effects, or used effects that actually make sense for the armor.”

Currently, the armor you choose to equip in Helldivers 2 includes three stats. Armor rating, speed and stamina regeneration, as well as an armor passive that provided addition buffs. These factors determined by the weight of the suit.
