Armor or armour (officially known as Aragonite Armor) is a protective collectible in Splatoon's Octo Valley. The armor is automatically worn by Agent 3 (the player) when picked up.

Description
Armor comes in a small briefcase-like collectible in single-player Octo Valley missions.

Use
Armor prevents Octarian attacks from splatting Agent 3. If Agent 3 takes enough damage that would otherwise splat them, an Armor piece breaks instead, and they cannot be damaged for a short time after the break, shown by a flashing effect. However, Armor provides no protection against falling into water or out-of-bounds, and will cause Agent 3 to respawn with no Armor.

Having it on at the end of an mission awards a bonus of 10 Power Eggs. This bonus does not change based on the number of pieces worn; it is always 10.

Tiers
Agent 3 can hold up to three pieces of Armor. Though the Armor collectible is the same, Agent 3's appearance changes depending on how much they are wearing.


 * 1 piece: Purple lights
 * 2 pieces: Yellow lights, one antenna on helmet (right side)
 * 3 pieces: Green lights, two antennas on helmet
