Armored forearms have been popular with warriors of countless cultures for millennia. Bracers are a versatile piece of defensive weaponry that can be used to parry attacks. More modern soldiers often fit their Bracers with Comlinks, tactical computers, or control signals for detonators.
Modern Bracers are angled specifically to deflect blaster energy away when the wearer is shooting. If you are wearing Bracers and draw an Attack of Opportunity while aiming a ranged weapon, you gain a +2 Equipment bonus to Reflex Defense against the attack. Alternately, if you are Unarmed, or wielding a light melee weapon, you gain a +2 Equipment bonus to any attempt to negate an enemy attack (Deflect, Block, Primitive Block, etc.).
Although Bracers are considered Equipment, they can integrate an additional piece or pieces of Equipment that weigh a combined total of 3 kg or less per Bracer, as a Tech Specialist Trait.
