A Marine helmet is a full-head power armor helmet that forms a full set along with the Marine armor.

Acquisition[edit]

Marine helmets can be crafted at a fabrication bench once the marine armor research project has been completed. Each requires Plasteel 40 Plasteel, Advanced component 1 Advanced component, 21,000 ticks (5.83 mins) of work modified by the general labor speed of the crafter, and a crafting skill of 7.

Alternatively, they can be received as a quest reward, found in ancient shrines, purchased from outlander and Empire Content added by the Royalty DLC traders and faction bases, or obtained from the following raider kinds:

Raider Kind Chance Average Quality Health
Elite mercenary ? Normal 70-230%
Boss ? Normal 70-230%
Grenadier Content added by the Royalty DLC 100% Normal 70-230%

Summary[edit]

A marine helmet has a slave suppression offset of −10%. When worn by a slave,Content added by the Ideology DLC this acts as an offset to the rate at which the slave loses suppression.Content added by the Ideology DLC Note that by default, slaves lose between −5% and −20% suppression per day depending on their current level of suppression. This loss rate stacks additively with all sources of slave suppression offset, with a minimum of 0% loss per day.

Analysis[edit]

Marine helmets are in the middle of the 3 power armors, stronger than the recon helmet, and weaker than the cataphract helmetContent added by the Royalty DLC. Unlike the simple helmet and flak helmet, all 3 power armors cover the full head. The marine helmet is roughly equivalent to a Recon Helmet of one quality level above (e.g. a Normal Marine Helmet ~= Good Recon Helmet), or a cataphract helmet one quality levels below.

The marine helmet only costs Plasteel 10 plasteel more than a recon helmet. And unlike the body armors, helmets do not slow the wearer down. Therefore, there is little reason to make recon helmets over marine helmets, once Marine Armor has been researched.

Likewise, cataphract helmets Content added by the Royalty DLC only cost an additional Plasteel 10 plasteel compared to marine. However, researching Cataphract armor requires 2 of its techprints. This can potentially be an issue; but once you can build cataphract helmets, there is little reason not to unless you already have a particularly high quality marine helmet.

Without the Royalty DLC, an end-game colony should equip marine helmets on every colonist that does not require some other specialized headwear, such as the social impact hats or the mechlord helmet.Content added by the Biotech DLC
