Changes: Lightning Armor

Revision as of 11:28, 30 December 2017

“	You can even surround yourself with lightning that negates damage and deflects enemies.	„
—Yoshio Sakamoto

Lightning Armor is an Aeion ability in Metroid: Samus Returns. It is obtained in Area 2. It imbues Samus's Power Suit with an electric green aura, which protects her from attacks and external damage, and is particularly useful when running through Red plants or Fleech Swarms. Any attacks sustained by the shield will deplete the Aeion Gauge and not Samus's energy. The ability also greatly increases the range of Melee Counter, known as a Lightning Counter. However, the Lightning Armor does not protect Samus from lava or the purple liquid.
