The '''PUCS''' is an outerwear [[Gear|suit]] that provides [[Oxygen]], protects against attacks, and protects against [[High Pressure]]. The PUCS is an upgrade over the {{hl|Combat Diving Suit}}, with significantly increased [[Radiation Sickness|radiation]], [[Husk Infection|husk]], and [[Burn|burn]] protection, at the cost of slightly lower physical protection and marginally reduced movement speed. It can be crafted by an [[Engineer]] with the [[Talents#Engineer Talents|Ph.D in Nuclear Physics]] talent unlocked.

= Description =
<!-- General description of the item, what it does, comparison to other similiar items, maybe some general tips.-->
The {{PAGENAME}} is an protective and pressure resistant Outerwear. Its 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}}, but it no longer increases Scooter Propulsion Speed, instead it slows it down slightly. It provides slightly lower protection against most [[Afflictions]] but the same Pressure Protection - 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, hides their identity and muffles certain sounds.


The suit allows the player to breathe while underwater when an oxygen supply is provided. Unlike other [[Diving Suit (disambiguation)|Diving Suits]], the PUCS will not drain oxygen from the tank while in an oxygenated room, and thus can safely be used without an oxygen supply, as long as the player does not enter water. It also protects the player from the pressure of the ocean, allowing them to exit the submarine and enter rooms that are pressurized due to breaches. The maximum depth of the suit is increased somewhat over regular diving suits, allowing the player to safely reach up to 6,000m in depth.


Players wearing a PUCS move 10% slower and have greatly reduced field of view. PUCS lowers the thrust of {{hl|Underwater Scooter|s=s}} by 10%.
<!-- 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; It '''cannot''' be bought at any [[Outpost]].


The PUCS has a slot that can contain a single medical/chemical item, similar to the [[Auto-Injector Headset]], which is automatically used on the wearer when they reach or drop below 50% vitality. If wearing both auto-injector headset and PUCS, both will use their item simultaneously upon reaching the threshold. Auto-injecting an item bypasses the medical skill check for it and the wearer will always receive the maximum benefit of the item as if the check was passed, regardless of its skill requirement and the wearer's medical skill.
= Function =
<!--How to use the item -->
The {{PAGENAME}} can be worn in the Outerwear slot.


The PUCS has 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 50% chance to completely resist Husk Infection and provides Pressure Protection 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 Scooter 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 isn't needed or used up when in a room with Oxygen. 
* It has a built-in light that doesn't require a battery and will work as long as the user is alive.
* It hides the user's identity and reduces their field of view.
* It can't 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.


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

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 140% buff to crowbar attacks.

The PUCS is an Outerwear in Barotrauma.

Description

The PUCS is an protective and pressure resistant Outerwear. Its an upgrade over the Combat Diving Suit specialized in environment protection due to the extreme amount of protection against Burns and Radiation Sickness, but it no longer increases Scooter Propulsion Speed, instead it slows it down slightly. It provides slightly lower protection against most Afflictions but the same Pressure Protection - 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, hides their identity and muffles certain sounds.


It can be crafted by an Engineer with the Ph.D in Nuclear Physics talent unlocked; It cannot be bought at any Outpost.

Function

The PUCS can be worn in the Outerwear slot.

  • When worn it protects all limbs, has an additional 50% chance to completely resist Husk Infection and provides Pressure Protection 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 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 isn't needed or used up when in a room with Oxygen.
  • It has a built-in light that doesn't require a battery and will work as long as the user is alive.
  • It hides the user's identity and reduces their field of view.
  • It can't 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.
