== Armor == '''Armor''' grants the player [[shields]]. The shields can be recharged using {{ItemLink|Shield Cell|text=Shield Cells}}, {{ItemLink|Shield Battery|text=Shield Batteries}}, or {{ItemLink|Phoenix Kit|text=Phoenix Kits}}; or by completing a [[finisher]]; or by looting a [[Gear#Shield Core|Shield Core]] from a [[Death Box]]. There are three types of armor: {{ItemLink|Body Shield|text=Body Shields}}, {{ItemLink|Evo Shield|text=Evo Shields}}, and [[Gear#Legend_Armor|Legend Armor]] that is fuled by [[Gear#Shield Core|Shield Cores]]. {{ItemLink|Body Shield|text=Body Shields}} and {{ItemLink|Evo Shield|text=Evo Shields}} are no longer available in Battle Royale. This includes the {{Legendary|Level 4}} Shield with the [[Perk]] {{Legendary|[IMPROVED MINOR HEAL]}}. === Body Shield === No longer available in Battle Royale. {{Patch notes| February 13th, 2024. "Body Shields are no longer a loot item and won't be found on the ground in Battle Royale. Instead, all Legends have inherent Legend Armor that increases in capacity permanently as they Level-Up."
