If a Hiver tries wearing a regular human-sized shirt it just sort of hangs loose and falls off their shoulders, often tangling up their arms. So they were forced to manufacture their own, which they have done to a suspiciously higher standard than all their gear designed for humans.
Leather Hive Vest
Slot: SHIRT Type: Light Armour


Leather Hive Vest is Armour that is equipped in the Shirt slot of Hivers. It belongs to the Light Armour Class and can be crafted using the Leather Armour Crafting Bench. This shirt is one of the four shirt options available for Hive characters to wear in the shirt slot.

This armour has inventory dimensions of 4x2.

This shirt can potentially be found on Tech Hunter Gate Guards, Droneguards, or Elite Droneguards. This shirt may be available for purchase from Hive Villages at qualities ranging from prototype to high grade. It might also be for sale at high qualities at the Drowned Ruins.

Appearance[]

Overall the hive vest resembles a hybrid between a waistcoat and an animal harness. The left and right "halves" of the waistcoat are united at the chest level with two strips of leather in the front and back. The lower part of the vest seems to resemble several leather belts with buckles in the front, stacked on top of each other. The vest has a brown "leather" coloration.
