Burkas are a form of clothing added by the Ideology DLC. They cover the entire body but inflict a -0.4 c/s move speed penalty.

Acquisition

Burkas can only be made at electric or hand tailor benches which require Complex Clothing to be researched in order to be constructed. Each burka requires 60 Stuff (Fabric) and 4,000 ticks (1.11 mins) of work.

They can also be purchased from traders.

Summary

Burkas are unique in that they cover the entire body, except hands and feet which no apparel covers, in exchange for a -0.4 c/s move speed penalty. Note that this offset applies before multiplicative factors. For example, it will decrease the move speed of a pawn with 200% Moving, a multiplicative factor, by -0.8 c/s and a pawn with 50% moving by -0.2 c/s. See the Move Speed page for details.

Analysis

Although it provides less protection than a duster, and slows down the wearer, it does add extra armor over helmets to the face and head.

The most ideal use of the Burka seems to be as a full body prisoner outfit, as a single garment, that has the added benefit of slowing the prisoner that wears it.

This point is more attractive considering the Burka's features with an identical "stuff" to make cost, although at roughly 160% the work time (1.11 min vs 30 sec) as Tribalwear
