ArmSuits are a type of Exoskeleton battle suits used by HOUSE's forces on Eden-IV. They have been common before the Psion War, but since then, the few remaining ArmSuits have solely been in the hands of HOUSE. Some also rest in ruins of pre-war facilities all over the planet. Some factions also replicated ArmSuits using the much cruder post-war technology. These ArmSuits, besides being no match to the firepower and armoring of the old ones, lacked a major trait of the old ArmSuits: Psi-Linking.

Original pre-war ArmSuits are usualy fitted with AIs, called ArmSouls, which offer a telepathic interface to control weaponry and functions the wearer cannot easily control by physical input during battle. These ArmSouls also offer certain "psychic plugs", receivers that can absorb the wearer's psychic power and use the energy to add to its functions. Depending on the Color of Magic and spell type used, this is of varying efficiency: For example, Asumi, a high-level White Magic spell, offers good protection, so it should be linked to an ArmSuits Shield generator linking point, while being less effective on a weapon. Red fire-elemental magic serves well to enhance a weapon or engine. Black Magic adds its destructive power to anything it is linked with and should solely be used on weapons. The relevant component would pick up the properties of the magic linked to it and become more efficient using its power. Over time, by using a certain ArmSuit, a pilot would also increase his or her Sychronicity percentage with that AmSuits interface. Only at maximum Sychronicity would a pilot be able to transfer all the psionic power to the Suit. However, sometimes, with increasing time spent inside the interface, one may become unable to log out again, and the pilot's soul merges with the ArmSoul. At that point, even if the physical form of the pilot would be killed, a shadow of his soul would remain inside the system as part of the ArmSoul. Some ArmSouls are hard to control and love to act on their own, especially those that have merged with a human soul, while others are just plain software to enter commands.

RA
Ra starts off very cheap with his Giga Lightning attack, which is somewhat effective against mechanical enemies, but as its pilot increases Sync, Ra's weapon changes to "Supernovae", which pounds all opponents with repeated "Supernova" spells. Easily one of the best weapons. However, the Ra ArmSuit still has Jaffar as ArmSoul and cannot be controlled. Once activated, it will act pretty much on it's own, unaffected by input from the pilot.
This type is frequently called the "King of ArmSuits", due to the fact that it was the last and final type created by Jaffar.
