Armors with PSI Protection Explained
The PSI Protection suit will protect you from the strange, mind-bending effects of the Psi-Emitters and the Controller mutants you’ll encounter in the main mission, “Ad astra per aspera.” Currently, we know of two PSI Protection suits in the game. While it’s not as strong as the SEVA suit, the Cuirass Exoskeleton will still help you in most of the mission.
