Four armor bonuses in Plutonia Experiment, MAP18

An armor bonus (or spiritual armor) is a powerup that appears as a gray helmet with a green glow emanating from within. Picking one up increases the player's armor by 1% up to a maximum of 200%, or, in versions of Doom prior to v1.2, an arbitrarily large number.

Green security armor and blue combat armor provide different levels of protection (one third and one half of damage, respectively, are absorbed); armor bonuses do not change the type of protection currently in effect. If the player has 0% armor, then picks up one or more armor bonuses, they function as security armor.

Armor bonuses are included in the items percentage displayed at the end of each level.
