Carbonum Armor

Carbonum Armor armor is easy enough to make if you have some tradeskill experience, if not go and find you local engineer and ask for some help.

Here are a list of items you will need for the tradeskill
Note: You need 'either' the Screwdriver or MRR Shape Hard, not both, see why later in the guide.

Screwdriver
Tools for Electrical and Mechanical Engineering terminal
MRR Shape Hard (Mass Relocating Robot)
Sheet of Curved Carbonum Plating (1 for each armor piece)
Armor and Clothing Components terminal
HSR Sketch and Etch robot (6 robots)
Pharmacy and Chemistry Tools and Bases terminal

All the items required to make Carbonum Armor can be purchased in your nearest General store if you opt for the screwdriver method, but be aware some can be quite expensive, especially the sheets at higher QL's.

First thing to do is buy all the components needed, 7 sheets of carbonum plating will make a complete set, then you will need the 6 different HSR sketch and Etch robots {Head, Chest, Arms, Hands, Legs & Feet}. A screwdriver is easily picked up, but for higher QL's a MRR Shape is recommended and that is not so easy to obtain (see the guide).

Take the appropriate HSR Robot and combine it with the sheet of carbonum plating, this will give you an etched pattern. Repeat for each armor piece, not forgetting that 2 arm pieces are needed for a full set.

Now take the etched patterns and combine with either screwdriver or if you have the MRR Hard and you will now hold your new armor piece, again repeat for each etched pattern.

Carbonum Armor

Carbonum armor requires both stamina and agility to equip but gives quite good protection (except for energy and radiation). Plus it has the added benefit of adding some max nano and extra NCU, great for lower levels.
Also with a little more effort it can be upgraded to Storm Carbonum (see separate guide)
