The Steel-Ribbed Armor is one of the very few armor types that insulate the wearer against energy attacks. Instead of absorbing the energy, it actually prevents most of the energy from getting through. Beneath the layer of insulation you have a layer of steel ribs that will protect you against most melee and projectile attacks. The construction is very flexible, and a person with high Sense and Agility is able to wear this armor with relative ease.
