    IIRC servo assisted doesn’t affect the damage received at all. It gives more health to limbs, which makes the injury threshold lower in terms of limb health %, but it doesn’t actually give you more hp, ie for the same armor value, receiving some damages (regardless of the localization) will chunk the exact same portion of your health bar with or without increased limb health.

    However being able to yeet grenades and stratagems further can be extremely useful against bots

      Yeah, looks like you’re correct, I got baited by the description. Did some testing with a friend, had him shoot me in the leg with a secondary with and without Servo-Assisted armor. No visible difference in the amount of damage taken, but Servo-Assisted prevented a leg injury below 50%. Will repeat the test tomorrow with the B-08 Light Gunner armor (light armor with Extra Padding modifier, 100 armor rating instead of 50) to see if that mitigates any amount of damage.
