Replacing both lungs stacks to the maximum of {{+|100%}} resistance. This reduces the amount of [[toxic buildup]] from [[toxic fallout]], [[tox gas]] and [[pollution]] by 60%. Note that it does not prevent the other effects of tox gas. Detoxifier lungs are also fully immune to [[rot stink]], [[acidic smog]], [[asthma]], and [[lung rot]], and will cure the latter two aliments in that lung. |

Detoxifier lungs are craftable, meaning they can replace a destroyed lung when there are no [[prisoner]]s to harvest from, or if your colony's [[ideoligion]]{{IdeologyIcon}} prevents organ harvesting. | Detoxifier lungs are craftable, meaning they can replace a destroyed lung when there are no [[prisoner]]s to harvest from, or if your colony's [[ideoligion]]{{IdeologyIcon}} prevents organ harvesting. | ||
− | + | Creating bionic parts is an expensive proposition. If a lung isn't missing, then creating a detox lung should be weighed against creating a more generally useful part (like a [[bionic arm]] or [[bionic leg]]) and relying on cheaper sources of resistance, like [[face mask]]s, [[gas mask]]s, or [[gene]] implantation. Using one source of resistance is usually sufficient against toxic fallout and rot stink. As an advantage, detox lungs do not occupy an armor slot and do not cause genetic hunger. | |

− | + | Detox lungs stack additively with other sources of toxic environmental resistance. Total toxic environmental immunity (1 lung and a face mask, or 2 lungs) can be very helpful for late-game colonies who can afford making lungs, especially against the tox-reliant [[Pirates#Waster pirates|waster pirates]]. | |

+ | ===Comparison to kidney=== | ||
+ | The primary difference between detoxifier lungs and [[detoxifier kidney]] is that the former provides [[Toxic Environment Resistance]], while the latter provides [[Toxic Resistance]]. Compared to the detoxifier kidney: | ||
+ | *Detox lungs cost {{icon small|advanced component}} 2 [[advanced component]]s more to create, about double the cost. | ||
+ | *Detox lungs protect against [[rot stink]], but does not protect against direct toxic attacks (such as an [[apocriton]]'s [[toxic needle gun]]). Toxic buildup attacks are comparatively rare. | ||
+ | *A single detox lung gives +10% resistance than a single detox kidney. | ||
+ | *Detox lungs stack additively with the [[face mask]], allowing a single lung and face mask to reach the 100% cap Toxic Environmental Resistance, preventing all inhaled toxins and rot stink. A pawn with a single detox kidney and face mask stack multiplicatively to provide 25% toxic build up non-attack sources, and 50% from attack sources. | ||
+ | *Detox lungs increase movement and rest, which are more generally useful stats than [[Immunity Gain Speed]], especially by the time you create bionic parts. However, both boosts are fairly small. | ||
+ | ** Detoxifier kidneys also prevent the use of the [[immunoenhancer]] {{RoyaltyIcon}}, which provides a larger boost to Immunity Gain Speed anyway. | ||
+ | *Lungs will prevent asthma and lung rot, while kidneys prevent [[chemical damage]]. | ||
