The war mask is a tribal clothing item. It provides minor protection, as well as increasing pain shock threshold, allowing the wearer to take more pain before being downed.

Acquisition[edit]

For New Tribes, War masks can be crafted at a crafting spot, hand tailor bench, or electric tailor bench, each requiring 25 Stuff (Woody) and 3,000 ticks (50 secs) of work modified by the general labor speed of the crafter and the work to make factor of the material. New Arrivals can never craft war masks.

War masks can be purchased from traders, crafted (by tribal factions), or stripped from tribal raiders.

In particular, it can be found on the following raider kinds:

Raider Kind	Chance	Average Quality	Health
Berserker	100%	Normal	100%
Heavy Archer	100%	Normal	100%

Summary[edit]

In addition to minor head protection, a war mask increases the pain shock threshold of its wearer by +10%, allowing its wearer to take more pain before being downed.

Analysis[edit]

War masks are a cheap source of armor for tribespeople in the early game, if you have a good craftsman. While they don't give much protection, the increase in pain shock threshold helps your pawns stay longer in the fight before giving in to pain.

Wood is reasonably easy to obtain in most biomes, so obtaining materials shouldn't be too much of an issue. Rather, the greater issue is having to divert labor to obtaining the wood and crafting it.

War masks can be equipped on Wimp colonists to allow them to function under certain illnesses which would normally surpass their pain threshold.

Styles[edit]

Ideoligions allow the selection of styles which then change the texture of the certain items and buildings when constructed by the colony. These style variants can be crafted if the colony has the selected style, or can be looted from raiders from factions with the requisite style.
