Flak Armor in Ark is a late game armor. You can unlock it at level 56, but you must first learn the prerequisite Chitin Armor before you can unlock the Flak armor engrams. Each piece of Flak armor provides the user 100 armor per piece for a total of 500 for the full set. You can find Flak armor in Yellow supply crates.

Flak armor provides high physical protection, moderate cold protection, and makes the user more susceptible to heat. The full set of Flak armor in Ark provides +60 cold protection and -25 heat protection. This makes Flak armor a great set for combat, but less useful for general situations.

Each piece of Flak armor provides 120 durability. This makes Flak armor one of the most durable sets of gear in Ark. The durability is equivalent the next step up in combat armor, Riot Armor, but below the final step in your armor progression, Tek armor.
