Why “Good” Armor Still Gets You Killed in Tarkov PvE (What Actually Works)

Описание: Many players search for the best armor in Tarkov PvE, but survivability depends more on hitbox coverage, plates, and materials than armor class alone.

In this video I explain how the armor system in Escape from Tarkov actually works for PvE.

Deaths that feel random or unfair are not caused by bad armor or bad gear, but by missing hitbox coverage, plate layout, and material choice. Armor class alone is not enough to understand survivability in Tarkov.

We’ll break down how hitboxes work, how soft armor and plates interact, why materials like UHMWPE matter, and which armors are genuinely strong for PvE. I’ll also explain why some popular armors perform very differently in PvP vs PvE, and how choices like armored rigs, throat protection, and Red Rebel extracts affect real survival.

If you mainly play Tarkov PvE and want to stop dying to scavs, rogues, and random AI shots, this video will help you make better armor decisions.
