Psychic suppressors are massive threats if they affect multiple important pawns at once. A baseline pawn will move 50% slower, do most work 50% slower, and will be much less effective in combat. Reduced Consciousness makes it easier to [[downed|down]] or [[death|kill]] any affected pawn. Conversely, if no colonist is currently affected by the suppressor, then it is purely beneficial due to the effect on raiders. However, it may not be desirable to keep the suppressor forever, as new recruits may be of the affected gender. | Psychic suppressors are massive threats if they affect multiple important pawns at once.

If the condition causer has spawned inside your colony, then you can use [[mortar]]s to shell it from a distance. Just watch out for [[mech high-shield]]s. | If the condition causer has spawned inside your colony, then you can use [[mortar]]s to shell it from a distance.
