The plot of Ark: Genesis Part 2 Brings a new beginning to the Ark story, revolving around the player overcoming tests within a simulation. Hunt for food, valuable minerals, and resources, and fend off terrifying creatures to survive in this hostile world. There are a number of tools that the player can build and find to further their progress within the game. One such tool is the Tek Armor Suit.
Tek Armor is a full-body suit that offers physical protection as well as climate protection from freezing, heat, and radiation. It can be worn underwater as well for survival and for better vision. Each Tek armor part in Ark provides special abilities such as unlimited oxygen, night vision, helmet scanner, devastating punches, jetpack, no fall damage, and climbing mountains. Players can combine the jetpack function with the leggings' fast walking ability to increase their flying speed.
