Concerning armor upgrades

OH ****!!!!

Every upgrade you get, the damage from enemy attacks are reduced. So my question is, does this mean each shot you take in hypermode takes less energy?

In my opinion, I think the PED suit's Hypermode actually can use the residual Phazon that you generate in Hypermode to act as a shield, except against Phazon-based weaponry, as this is absorbed into the suit, increasing phazon levels.

Are you talking about when Samus is in corrupted hyper mode?

After lotsa pain, yes, Samus goes into Corrupted Hypermode. But she is invincible to all non-phazon weaponry, which can push her into Corrupted 'mode.

She's not pushed into hyper mode unless you get hit by a hyper gernade. But now i think your talking about when she's on Phazze. Am i right? If so then it doesn't matter because her hyper mode attacks didn't take up anything.

Yeh, it's on Phaaze. Hallelughia for the Hyper Ball! But the GF are smarter than the Pirates. They managed to make one in Hypermode invincible to all but Phazon. Phazon would be absorbed into the PED tank in Hypermode, adding to the current Hyper Tank (what I call it anyway), which could push the Hypermode user into Corrupted. To be honest, the GF are really ones for taking risks.

Only Samus and the hunters could get corrupted because the Phazon is in their bodies. GF troopers can't be corrupted.

This is called "not pushing important happenings onto unimportant characters." If something like that did happen to a GF trooper, he'd sure as hell be an important character like a boss, or it'd never happen.

Did anyone see thoses two GF troopers on board the vahalla? They're hypermode tanks went crazy and i think human's can't handle corruption well. Samus is the exception because:
A. She has a suit on.
b. She has Chozo DNA.
c. She's sexy. extra_smug

After a certain point in the game, corrupted hypermode kicks in after being in hyper mode for longer than a certain duration. It isn't caused by damage, to my knowldge.

True. Damage during hypermode increases the red phazon levels though.

Yo.

Actually, damage by phazon weaponry increases your Phazon tank, no matter whether you are in Corrupted Hypermode or just in Hypermode. If you are in regular mode, you just take damage and are randomly pushed into Corrupted Hypermode when hit with Phazon attacks (it's not only been done to me by a Phazon grenade, but by regular Phazon shots, as well.) The grenades have a higher chance of pushing you into Corrupted Hypermode because they do more damage, IMHO.

Hated by all

The regular Federation troopers were part of the PED Delta Squad, they were elite troops with the highest responsibility of the equipment. Because I make crappy assumptions, I'm not going to try to guess the dimensions of their backpacks.

Samus was already corrupted by a shot to the chest and in a coma for an entire month (because she's just human and then some, that's probably why she woke up two weeks later than the others), the Feds had a lot of time to outfit the Varia Suit to have the Hunter PED.

The trigger in which you get the red Hypermode bar is when you shatter the Phazon barrier in Bryyo and grapple across through the lake. Phazon grenades are useful if you didn't want to waste an E-Tank going berserk, unless you cared to keep it as long as possible (such as the SkyTown Defense, when I held Hypermode very long until auto-vent).

Phaaze, you had no choice. Been wondering, how do you calculate the time you have to live on that (assuming you have all 14 E-Tanks, and it may vary by difficulty)?

I think the difficultly level requires you to get more energy tanks. In normal mode, 7 tanks earn you a complete health bar. In veteren its only half. And in hyper its half...of half.

No, you can still have a full bar of health in hyper with all e-tanks. Have you actually tried what you're talking about here? :|
