Armor

refers to the different pieces of handmade hard coverings the survivor uses to protect himself/herself from zombie attacks in How to Survive. There are four places on the body where armor can be worn.

Head Slot
Helmets can be worn in the head slot. The Soldier Helmet is the most widely available but also confers the least amount of protection among helmets.

Arm Slot
Various kinds of Arm Protections can be worn in the arm slot.

Body Slot
Various kinds of jackets are worn in the chest slot. The Soldier Bulletproof Jacket is the most widely available but also confers the least amount of protection among jackets.

Leg Slot
Leg Protections and its improved variants can be worn in the leg slot.

Decorations
Decorations offer a physical improvement to the pieces of armor they are added to, but do not confer any additional bonuses whatsoever. Possible decorations are Pieces of Flint and Bones. The Helmet with Bones is the only piece of armor to have a listed recipe, the others are all unlisted. Decorated armor can be combined/upgraded according to the standard recipes just as their undecorated counterparts do.
