A '''Marine helmet''' is a full-head power [[armor]] helmet that forms a full set along with the [[Marine armor]].
 
  
== Acquisition ==
+
Marine helmets are part of the [[Marine armor]] set in game. It covers the eyes, ears, nose and jaw as opposed to just the head as the other helmets.
{{Acquisition}}
 
  
Alternatively, they can be received as a [[quest]] reward, found in [[ancient shrine]]s, purchased from [[outlander]] and [[Empire]] {{RoyaltyIcon}} [[traders]] and [[faction base]]s, or obtained from the following [[raider]] kinds:
+
It can be crafted with 40 plasteel and 1 [[advanced component]] or found on incoming pirates.
<!--Raider is linked instead of a faction because its they are Mercenaries used by both Outlanders and Pirates-->

== Summary ==
 
When worn by a [[slave]],{{IdeologyIcon}} a marine helmet increases the rate that [[suppression]] is lost by 10% per day. This stacks additively with all other forms of suppression loss rate offsets.
 
  
== Analysis ==  
+
== Analysis ==
Marine helmets are in the middle of the 3 [[power armor]]s, stronger than the [[recon helmet]], and weaker than the [[cataphract helmet]]{{RoyaltyIcon}}. Unlike the [[simple helmet]] and [[flak helmet]], all 3 power armors cover the full head. The marine helmet is roughly equivalent to a Recon Helmet of one [[quality]] level above (e.g. a Normal Marine Helmet ~= Good Recon Helmet), or a cataphract helmet one quality levels below.
 
  
The marine helmet only costs {{Icon Small|plasteel}} 10 [[plasteel]] more than a [[recon helmet]]. And unlike the body armors, helmets do not slow the wearer down. Therefore, there is little reason to make recon helmets over marine helmets, once Marine Armor has been researched.
+
It is the most expensive helmets and comparable to a plasteel advanced helmet which requires 75 plasteel and 2 components to craft. While the marine helmet has better protection, the plasteel advanced helmet has higher HP and thus lasts longer. That said, the Marine Helmet has superb insulation to heat and cold. The increase of both heat and cold tolerances by 35C making it far more viable in extreme climates.
  
Likewise, [[cataphract helmet]]s {{RoyaltyIcon}} only cost an additional {{Icon Small|plasteel}} 10 [[plasteel]] compared to marine. However, researching [[Research#Cataphract armor|Cataphract armor]] requires 2 of its [[techprint]]s. This can potentially be an issue; but once you can build cataphract helmets, there is little reason not to unless you already have a particularly high quality marine helmet.
+
== Version history ==
 
 
Without the [[Royalty DLC]], an end-game colony should equip marine helmets on every colonist that does not require some other specialized headwear, such as the [[social impact]] hats or the [[mechlord helmet]].{{BiotechIcon}}
 
 
 
{{Apparel Stats Table}}
 
  
== Styles ==
+
In 0.19/1.0 it received a recipe change and a rename.
{{Ideology|No category}}
 
[[Ideoligion]]s allow the selection of styles which then change the texture of the certain items and buildings when constructed by the colony. These style variants can be crafted if the colony has the selected style, or can be looted from raiders from factions with the requisite style.

== Trivia ==
 
Every marine helmet found on an [[Empire#Grenadier|Imperial Grenadier]] {{RoyaltyIcon}} will be green.
 
 
 
== Version history ==
 
* 0.19/1.0 - it received a recipe change and a rename from '''Power helmet''' to '''Marine helmet'''.
 
* 1.1 - Received a buff to sharp protection (100% --> 106%) and blunt protection (36% --> 45%) and a nerf to heat protection (90% --> 54%).
 
* [[Version/1.1.2647|1.1.2647]] - No longer meets the clothing requirement of nobles, replaced in that role by [[Prestige marine helmet]]
 
* [[Version/1.2.2753|1.2.2753]] - Icons of spacer armor now display as off-white instead of dark gray.
 
* [[Version/1.3.3066|1.3.3066]] - Now spawns on new [[Empire#Grenadier|Imperial grenadiers]].{{RoyaltyIcon}}
 
* 1.3.? - Description changed to fix the lore inconsistency as [[Empire#Pawns|Imperial Janissaries]] {{RoyaltyIcon}} don't wear the helmet. ''"Armor like this is often used by imperial janissaries and rapid-incursion space marines."'' -> ''"Armor like this is often used by rapid-incursion space marines."''.
