Oddly enough, there doesn’t seem to be a clear consensus among fans on what Deathstroke should…well, wear. Some prefer him as the sleuth ninja, while others appreciate the heavy armor approach from New 52 and Arkham Origins, which we already know we’re getting. And I understand both sides.
On the one hand, Deathstroke limiting his protection against bullets and blades was always representative of his arrogance. Before Prime Earth, he didn’t need the best armor because he could dodge and move too fast for anyone to land a blow. That makes sense in theory, and I don’t have any problem whatsoever with keeping his suit simple. But I also believe in the merit of letting him have the Nth metal armor, or even Promethian armor.
Yes, Deathstroke is smart enough and quick enough to avoid getting badly hurt, but that doesn’t help him much against foes who catch him off guard, or bigger threats he has to face in New 52. The writers clearly added more protection to his armor so that the character could live up to the “Godkiller” idea without the story devolving into repetitive near-misses. In other words, Nth armor trumps plot armor.
