I wonder if anyone else has experienced this issue with QuantumFlux Battlesuit armor. I am getting what seems to be no protection whatsoever from the Battlesuit armor if I am wearing OpenComputer's Hover Boots. I am wearing a default Battlesuit Helmet, an upgraded Battlesuit Chestplate, and an upgraded Battlesuit Leggings. All three pieces of armor are constantly fully charged because I am carrying a Quibit Cell. If I wear the Hover Boots with the three Battlesuit armor pieces, I take four hearts of damage from a single Zombie punch. If I take off the Hover Boots, my armor level indicator drops by one and one-half levels, but I take no damage to one-half heart damage from Zombie punches. Is this a bug?
I wear the Hover Boots because it allows me to walk up steps of one-block height, a feature I really miss when I don't have it, but I value armor protection far more. So, I'm putting the Hover Boots aside for now. I'd like to re-acquire the ability to step up one-block heights, though. I tried ModularArmour's armor but, after adding modules to the armor, it began spamming the heck out of my console which was dropping my FPS so I put it aside for now (I also posted an issue at its git hub, and several people have now reported the same issue). I've looked around the modpack for an alternative one-step-up solution but I haven't found any. I was hoping to find a bauble of some kind, something like the Soujourner's Sash from Botania, but nothing seemed obvious to me. Suggestions?
EDIT: mentioning the Soujourner's Sash inspired me to do an NEI search for the word sash. I found Aura Cascade's Sash of the Angel's Heels. It is a bauble that gives you the ability to instantly step up one-block heights but it also lets you step up even more after charging up the sash a bit. I cheated in a sash for testing. I walked up to the side of a village house with a roof that was 8-blocks above. I pressed myself forward into the wall which begins the charging process, and then I appeared on the roof after two seconds or so. So now I'm off to get started with Aura Cascade!
