Make blood-red hardsuit 6 TC in traitor uplink or make it C-class

[Pyrodes]

With the current cost of the hardsuit (8 tc), the fact that it's S-class, and also that the black and red spacesuit has about the same armor values as the blood-red and isn't at all contraband, it's a much cheaper option which is only four tc. This makes the hardsuit just not worth it, the hardsuit being made six TC or C-class would possibly make it more appealing and useful.

wait, the black and red soft suit has comparable armor stats to the blood red hardsuit?

Yeah, it has almost identical stats to the hardsuit as well - the main difference being the jetpack module and combat mode toggle. There was a PR a while back to nerf the armor of the softsuit which got closed since one of the reasons for the nerf was the fact it was NC-class contraband over the blood-red hardsuit's S-class, which is more an administrative issue.

I still think it really should have less armor though - since it makes no sense that a suit that's twice the price has identical armor for the 3 major damage types in the game. The jetpack module and combat mode are nice, but not worth the extra 4TC. The contraband class is irrelevant, even if the hardsuit was C-class it still wouldn't get bought because of that.
