The Hazmat Suit is a sealed full body suit with a hood, built for work around dangerous chemicals. It is clothing worn in the Full Suit and Hood slot, and it covers the wearer from head to feet. It works with an oxygen tank, which must hold air and be switched on before the suit protects the wearer.
Its strength is a sealed layer over the whole body that keeps out nearly all wind and holds in a good deal of warmth. Its cost is heavy. It slows running by a quarter, halves vision and dulls hearing. It also takes the place of almost every other piece of clothing.
The suit is a very rare find. It turns up only in drug labs and laboratories. The Tailor is the best occupation for clothing. It starts with the most Tailoring skill.
Wearing
The suit keeps the body fairly warm and blocks almost all wind. That makes it comfortable in cold, windy weather.
It stops only a few bites and scratches, about one scratch in seven across the whole body. Proper armour does a far better job in a fight with zombies.
The costs are steep. Running speed drops by a quarter. Vision is cut in half, and hearing falls by a quarter, so zombies are harder to notice. It also adds a fair amount of discomfort.
The suit fills nearly every slot. Hats, masks, glasses, jackets, sweaters, pants, gloves and scarves cannot be worn with it. It also blocks the back slot, so a backpack cannot be worn at the same time. Holsters and webbing are blocked too.
The oxygen tank is fitted and removed with two recipes. Attach Oxygen Tank puts a tank on the suit. Remove Oxygen Tank takes it off again, so an empty tank can be swapped for a full one.

Locations
The hazmat suit is a very rare find. Drug lab wardrobes are the likeliest place to look. Drug lab counters hold one less often. Laboratory desks and storage turn one up only once in a long while.
The places where it spawns, with the rough chance per container.
| Location | Container | Chance |
|---|---|---|
| Drug lab | Wardrobe | 1.8% |
| Drug lab | Counter | 0.4% |
| Laboratory | Desk | 0.2% |
| Laboratory | Other | 0.2% |
Notes
- The suit needs oxygen in its tank and must be turned on to protect the wearer.
- A backpack cannot be worn with the suit, so loot must go in a hand held bag.
- Running is a quarter slower in the suit, so it is a poor choice for escaping a horde.
- Drug lab wardrobes are the best place to search for one.
