Armor Perks in Starfield refers to special abilities that certain Spacesuits and Helmets possess. The amount of Perks a piece of Armor possess also determines its rarity, and can even alter its name. Armor can have up to 3 different Armor Perks.

Armor Perks available are based on the Armor type of the obtained piece. Not all Armor Perks are available to all Armor.

      These are all the ones I have found so far. They can all go on every piece of armor. I am not sure if they stack or not yet, but you can have the same skill on 2 pieces at the same time so they probably can stack.
