Like [[ | + | Cataphract helmets provides the best protection of any helmet in the game, especially against blunt, and can block heat damage. Like [[Recon helmet]]s and [[Marine helmet]]s, and unlike the [[Simple helmet|Simple]] or [[Flak helmet]] it covers the entire head, including the Jaw, Nose, Ears and Eyes to provide comprehensive protection. It provides roughly the same protection as a Marine Helmet of one quality level above its own, or of Recon Helmet two quality levels above its own. It also allows a pawn to reach the cap of 200% sharp protection at Legendary quality. |
− | + | Unfortunately, it is much more expensive, needs a long time to make and also needs the Cataphract Armor research before being available. Acquiring it through fighting the Empire is also difficult due to their ubiquitious [[Death acidifier]] implants and the general difficulty of killing the pawns wearing this armor and carrying the empires best weapons. Unlike the armor however, it offers no penalty to movement speed, meaning that should one be available, it will be a straight upgrade to any other available helmet of similar quality. | |
