A lot of people wonder if they should make gem or quantum armor (the two end-game sets). It's pretty obvious once you look at the emc values of both, however. After going over all the features of both I'm baffled as to why anyone would make gem. Gem armor is insanely, extremely uber expensive to make. Quantum isn't cheap either, but compared to gem it's spare change. Gem armor costs a hefty 300 MILLION EMC. That's just insane. Anyone investing in this deserves to be a god. For this much energy you could pretty easily generate your own planet. However, quantum armor that costs a measly million(ish) EMC has very similar properties. It even gives full invincibility while gem does not. For something 300 times more expensive, it should at least be twice as good. Until Gem armor is very very buffed, or quantum is very very nerfed, gem armor is useless.
