The suit was originally made for mining, but proved somewhat unsuitable for that purpose. With some minor changes and additions it became an incredibly good armor, which protects its wearer against most types of melee, projectile and energy weapons. In the Omni-Pol battle suit, most of the old plating is replaced with more advanced Omni-Pol armor.

NOTE: Due to their supreme hermetic abilities, all battlesuits block your communication with nanobots. This lack of contact will effectively put the bots to death as time passes.
