The '''PUCS''' is an outerwear [[Gear|suit]] that provides [[Oxygen]], protects against attacks, and protects against [[High Pressure]]. It can be crafted by an [[Engineer]] with the [[Talents#Engineer Talents|Ph.D in Nuclear Physics]] talent unlocked.
The '''{{PAGENAME}}''' is an [[Gear#Outerwear|Outerwear]] in [[Barotrauma]].
 
= Description =
<!-- General description of the item, what it does, comparison to other similiar items, maybe some general tips.-->
The {{PAGENAME}} is a protective and pressure-resistant Outerwear. It's an upgrade over the {{hl|Combat Diving Suit|25}}, specialized in environment protection due to the extreme amount of protection against {{hl|Burn|s=s}} and {{hl|Radiation Sickness}}. However, it no longer increases {{hl|Underwater Scooter|20}} propulsion speed, instead it slows it down slightly. It provides slightly lower protection against most [[Afflictions]] but the same Pressure Resistance - for up to 6000 meters of depth. It incorporates a built-in light and a breathing gas supply that allows the user to breathe underwater, provided that the breathing supplies are filled. Due to its construction, it reduces its user's field of view and muffles certain sounds.


==Function==
A diving suit lets the player breath while underwater, when an oxygen source is placed inside the suit. Unlike other [[Diving Suit (disambiguation)|Diving Suits]], the PUCS will not drain oxygen from the tank while in an oxygenated room. In addition, the gear also protects the player from the ocean's water pressure, allowing them to swim outside of the [[:Category:Submarines|submarine]] without getting crushed while above 6000m.


Players wearing a PUCS move 10% slower and have greatly reduced field of view.
<!-- Can the item be crafted or bought -->
It can be crafted by an {{hl|Engineer|25|Engineer Job Icon}} with the {{hl|Ph.D in Nuclear Physics|25|Talent phdinnuclearphysics}} talent unlocked, or it can be bought from Coalition [[Campaign#Colony|Colonies]] if the player has at least 70 Reputation with the [[Campaign#Europa Coalition|Europa Coalition]].


The PUCS has a slot with room for a single medical/chemical item. This will be automatically used on the wearer when they drop below 50% [[Vitality]].
= Function =
<!--How to use the item -->
The {{PAGENAME}} can be worn in the Outerwear slot.


Diving suits have a light which illuminates a small area in front of the player, this light will be on as long as the player is alive.
<!-- List with facts about the items functionality and important tips. -->
* When worn, it protects all limbs, has an additional 90% chance to completely resist {{hl|Husk Infection|20}} and provides Pressure Resistance for up to 6000 meters depth. To safely dive deeper a more pressure resistant Diving Suit is required.
** It also slows down its user's movement speed by 10%, and decreases their {{hl|Underwater Scooter|20}} propulsion speed by 10%.
* It has a slot that can contain a single syringe of any kind, similar to the {{hl|Auto-Injector Headset}}, which is automatically used on the user when they drop below 50% vitality.
** If wearing both the Auto-Injector Headset and PUCS, they will use their item simultaneously upon reaching the threshold.
* It requires a breathing supply item inserted into it to provide [[Oxygen]] to the user, otherwise they will suffocate.
** Quite uniquely, it can utilize hull Oxygen whenever available, meaning breathing supply is not needed or used up when in a room with Oxygen. 
* It has a built-in light that does not require a battery and will work as long as the user is alive.
* It reduces the user's field of view.
* It cannot be stored in the inventory, only held with both hands or stored in a [[Containers|Diving Suit Locker]], where it replenishes its [[Oxygen Tank]] automatically, provided that the Locker is powered.
* Bots will prefer the {{PAGENAME}} over other Diving Suits, if they are in need of one.


Diving Suits can be stored in a [[Containers|Diving Suit Locker]].

The PUCS is an Outerwear in Barotrauma.

Description

The PUCS is a protective and pressure-resistant Outerwear. It's an upgrade over the Combat Diving Suit, specialized in environment protection due to the extreme amount of protection against Burns and Radiation Sickness. However, it no longer increases Underwater Scooter propulsion speed, instead it slows it down slightly. It provides slightly lower protection against most Afflictions but the same Pressure Resistance - for up to 6000 meters of depth. It incorporates a built-in light and a breathing gas supply that allows the user to breathe underwater, provided that the breathing supplies are filled. Due to its construction, it reduces its user's field of view and muffles certain sounds.


It can be crafted by an Engineer with the Ph.D in Nuclear Physics talent unlocked, or it can be bought from Coalition Colonies if the player has at least 70 Reputation with the Europa Coalition.

Function

The PUCS can be worn in the Outerwear slot.

  • When worn, it protects all limbs, has an additional 90% chance to completely resist Husk Infection and provides Pressure Resistance for up to 6000 meters depth. To safely dive deeper a more pressure resistant Diving Suit is required.
    • It also slows down its user's movement speed by 10%, and decreases their Underwater Scooter propulsion speed by 10%.
  • It has a slot that can contain a single syringe of any kind, similar to the Auto-Injector Headset, which is automatically used on the user when they drop below 50% vitality.
    • If wearing both the Auto-Injector Headset and PUCS, they will use their item simultaneously upon reaching the threshold.
  • It requires a breathing supply item inserted into it to provide Oxygen to the user, otherwise they will suffocate.
    • Quite uniquely, it can utilize hull Oxygen whenever available, meaning breathing supply is not needed or used up when in a room with Oxygen.
  • It has a built-in light that does not require a battery and will work as long as the user is alive.
  • It reduces the user's field of view.
  • It cannot be stored in the inventory, only held with both hands or stored in a Diving Suit Locker, where it replenishes its Oxygen Tank automatically, provided that the Locker is powered.
  • Bots will prefer the PUCS over other Diving Suits, if they are in need of one.

Trivia

  • The PUCS is likely a reference to the HEV (Hazardous Environment Suit) of the Half Life franchise. Similarly, the talent that unlocks the suit, Ph.D. in Nuclear Physics, references the protagonist of Half Life 1 and 2, Gordon Freeman. Gordon is a nuclear physicist who almost exclusively wears a specialized suit throughout the games and wields his signature crowbar, hence the 200% buff to crowbar attacks.
