  1. I don't believe there's any direct in-universe source explicitly confirming the adaptive gear is made of protosteel. However, it was made by Artakha, a crafter known for working with the material, and there's a number of statements from series author Greg Farshtey to back up that it's protosteel.

  7. Greg would say it is likely that Artakha used the Mask of Creation to create the protosteel adaptive armor and masks.

  17. Question:
  18. 4) Are the Nuva's weapons adaptable like their armor? I don't really see how that would work but it's the olny thing that makes sense with Pohatu's propeller claws.

  20. Greg's Answer:
  21. 4) Yes, they are.

  31. Question:
  32. 2. Are these made of protosteel if they are supposed to rip Makuta armor:
  33. 2a. Lewa's sword
  34. 2b. Kopaka's blizzard blade
  35. 2c. Brutaka's swords
  36.  
  37. Greg's Answer:
  38. 2) To be able to rip Makuta armor, the object has to be made of protosteel

  48. Question:
  49. 1. If Pohatu's twin propellers are made of protosteel, could it be assumed that all the other nuva's weapons are made of protosteel, as the armor seems to be the same for each toa?
  50.  
  51. Greg's Answer:
  52. 1) Yes
  53.  
  54. Question:
  55. 3. Along these lines, could it be possible that the nuva's adaptive armor is also made of protosteel, since their armor shapeshifts to the environments, and Artakha is the only place protosteel could be made, and Artakha is a genius in making things? protosteel seems to be the best armor for facing makuta.
  56.  
  57. Greg's Answer:
  58. 3) It's likely

  68. Question:
  69. 3a. Axalara and Adaptive armor are both protosteel, so shouldn't the adaptive armor help the toa survive while in the Codrex because it's protosteel and it can Adapt?
  70.  
  71. Greg's Answer:
  72. 3a) No, because the armor is not strong enough to protect against the storm.
