The RE-824 Bearer of the Standard armor set is a heavy-duty option with a dramatic name and a niche use case. If you’re after something that looks theatrical but has some practical battlefield perks, here’s what to know.
For more details on the armor, check out the wiki here.
Where to Get the Bearer of the Standard
This armor set isn’t tied to Warbonds. Instead, it pops up in the Superstore rotation, so you'll need to check back regularly.
Armor cost: 400 Super Credits
Helmet cost: 200 Super Credits
Both pieces must be bought separately.
What It Does (Passive Breakdown)
Armor Passive: Reinforced Epaulettes
50% chance to ignore grievous limb injury
What does that mean in real terms? It reduces the chance your arms or legs will get disabled after a blast or hit that normally would’ve wrecked you. So instead of limping across the battlefield or dropping your primary weapon, you stay upright and dangerous more often.
This is especially useful in intense missions with lots of explosives, bots with lasers, or anything that sprays splash damage.
Armor Stats
Body Armor:
Type: Heavy
Armor Rating: 150
Speed: 450
Stamina: 50
You're slower and less mobile, but tankier than average.
Helmet:
Armor: 100
Speed: 100
Stamina: 100
Passive: Standard Issue (no effect)
The helmet is mostly cosmetic, though it completes the look if you want full-stage-play cosplay energy.
Is It Worth It?
If you like heavier builds or play support roles like shield specialists or machine gun carriers, this set’s passive can be a real asset. It’s not a meta-chasing pick, but it fills a gap for players who hate getting crippled mid-objective.
It also looks ridiculous in the best way.
Final Blurb
Bearer of the Standard may not be the flashiest armor in terms of pure stats, but it earns its keep by keeping your limbs intact when things go sideways. If you're tired of crawling through warzones after a grenade lands too close, it’s worth grabbing from the Superstore the next time it rotates in.
