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 40 Plasteel, 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 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	100%	Normal	70-230%

Summary[edit]

A marine helmet has a slave suppression offset of −10%. When worn by a slave, this acts as an offset to the rate at which the slave loses suppression. 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 helmet. 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 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 only cost an additional 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.

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.

Base variant
Animalist variant
Morbid variant
Totemic variant

Trivia[edit]

Every marine helmet found on an Imperial Grenadier will be green.

Version history[edit]

0.19/1.0 - it received a recipe change and a rename from Power helmet to Marine helmet.
1.1 - Received a buff to sharp protection (100% --> 106%) and blunt protection (36% --> 45%) and a nerf to heat protection (90% --> 54%).
1.1.2647 - No longer meets the clothing requirement of nobles, replaced in that role by Prestige marine helmet
1.2.2753 - Icons of spacer armor now display as off-white instead of dark gray.
1.3.3066 - Now spawns on new Imperial grenadiers.
1.3.? - Description changed to fix the lore inconsistency as Imperial Janissaries don't wear the helmet. "Armor like this is often used by imperial janissaries and rapid-incursion space marines." -> "Armor like this is often used by rapid-incursion space marines.".

+Marine helmets are in the middle of the 3 [[power armor]]s, stronger than the [[recon helmet]], and weaker than the [[cataphract helmet]]{{RoyaltyIcon}}. 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.
-It is the most expensive helmets and comparable to a plasteel advanced helmet which requires 75 plasteel and 2 components to craft. While the marine helmet has better protection, the plasteel advanced helmet has higher HP and thus lasts longer. That said, the Marine Helmet has superb insulation to heat and cold. The increase of both heat and cold tolerances by 35C making it far more viable in extreme climates.
+The marine helmet only costs {{Icon Small|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 helmet]]s {{RoyaltyIcon}} only cost an additional {{Icon Small|plasteel}} 10 [[plasteel]] compared to marine.
