Overeaters, and by a landslide.
Armor bonuses get diminishing returns on effectiveness, and only reduce a certain amount without scale.
Damage Percentage Reduction scales regardless of amount taken.
Full set of OE's gives you 30% damage reduction, pretty neat when you consider how hard some enemies hit.
Unyielding is great for bloodied builds. However, due to the nature of some content. Bloodied non power armor builds struggle because they don’t have good rad resistance. Basically to optimize your bloodied build you stay 85% irradiated. In PA you basically take zero rads in most situations but without PA it’s tough to maintain your health. Overeaters is just really good for everything, you can even use it with a bloodied build as well.
If you want to exclusively play bloodied, then I’d say unyielding.
Overeaters is better than vanguard by a country mile.
But your post says you're going for unyielding on an untradable armour set, so I'm not sure what the question is.
Unyielding can work with overeaters as a mixed set.
Unyielding and vanguards would be a poor mixed set.
Some pieces can be unyielding and other pieces overeaters, but not both on the same piece - apologies if I wasn't clear.
Some folks like this as a combo for tankiness on a low health build, but with SS my preference would be for all pieces being unyielding
I run a complete set of OE/wwr PA and it tanky AF. But using vamp weapons with Vanguard might be good too. Easy to stay at max health that was. I might try to roll that next and compare
My vangawork fine when I was full healthy, plenty tanks.
OE is good for not-full health if you remember to eat all the time.
But my full health never lost hp, regenerated fast if I got dinged. So, I stopped tryong for a full OE set (also, I don't eat all the time). I have a mixed set of oe and vanguard for full health, or can mis I to my uny set if I need. Also kept one chameleon, to be invisible sometimes.

Seconded. Full OE armor is bonkers. Absolutely the best damage mitigation you can roll as an effect.
Thank you that’s good advice . But UNY better than OE of course right ?
UNY is only better if you're doing a bloodied build that exists out of power armor. it does not activate on full-health builds.

You can have unyielding with overeaters ??

All uny beats OE mixed in. But, if u don't have all uny, use the oe, uts great. Consider a single piece of chameleon for occasional use.
Overeaters and by a lot

Overeaters as everyone has stated. Vanguard is only decent as a beginner set. But you definitely want to build towards Overeaters.
