Hey, first of all, absolutely fantastic game. You've really managed to capture the Doom feel, and I realize that's going to make what I'm about to say sound kind of odd.
I think armor breaks way too easily. I know that's the way it was in Doom, but it doesn't really fit this format well at all. While enough armor drops that this usually isn't a huge deal in terms of staying armored, it makes getting a unique armor that's not the Onyx Armor a bit of a letdown, and it makes the Onyx Armor Pack one of the best uniques in my mind. It also makes it so I rarely use mods other than bulk mods on my armor because it'll probably be shredded within a couple of floors.
Basically, I'd say that slightly increasing the frequency of armor shards or slightly decreasing the amount of damage armor takes per hit would definitely fix this problem, possibly in combination with a slight decrease in armor drop frequency in order to maintain game balance. Thanks, and again, fantastic work on this.
