Helmets are designed to protect the wearer's head against blunt, sharp and projectile weapons, and creature bites. They come in three types: Ballistic Helmet, Gunner's Helmet, and Riot Helmet.
Function
Security Officers start with one of the Helmets as part of their loadouts.
The Ballistic and Riot Helmets are functionally identical. The Gunner's Helmet has lower protection values, but grants +10 Weapons Skill.
Stats
Listed below are the damage reduction values for each blocked damage type. These values only apply to damage dealt to the head.
Damage Type | Gunner's Helmet | Riot Helmet Ballistic Helmet |
---|---|---|
Blunt Force Trauma | -60% | -80% |
Lacerations | -60% | -80% |

Notes
- Despite the Ballistic Helmet's in-game description stating that it "won't offer adequate protection against most of the inhabitants of the subsurface ocean", it does protect well against several common creature-inflicted afflictions, most notably Bite Wounds.
