The SCBA (No Tank) is a firefighter's breathing mask with its oxygen tank taken off. It is a full face mask worn on the head. Without the tank it gives the same armour as the full SCBA at a much lower weight.
Its strength is good bite and scratch cover for the head, at a weight of just 1. Its main cost is that it halves vision and is very uncomfortable. It is made by taking the tank off a full SCBA. Attaching an Oxygen Tank turns it back into a working SCBA. The Tailor is the best occupation for protective gear. It starts with the most Tailoring skill.
Wearing
The SCBA (No Tank) is worn in the Breathing Mask slot and covers the head. It stops about three bites in ten and half of all scratches on the head. That matches both the full SCBA and the Gas Mask. It also keeps out all the rain and most of the cold and wind.
Fumes and corpse sickness are only blocked once an Oxygen Tank is attached and the mask is turned on.
The costs are the same as for the full set. Vision is cut in half, so zombies are noticed much later. The mask is very uncomfortable, and running is slowed slightly. It wears out quickly, losing condition on about one hit in three.
Unlike the full SCBA, it leaves the back free. A backpack can be worn with it. It still clashes with glasses, other masks, suit jackets, bulky jackets, shoulder pads, shoulder holsters and webbing.
Carrying
The mask adds three hotbar slots. Two are small belt slots on the left and right. The third is a webbing slot on the left. The belt slots take tools and small weapons such as hammers, knives, wrenches and screwdrivers. The webbing slot takes a knife or a walkie talkie.
Locations
The SCBA (No Tank) comes from a full SCBA once its tank is removed. Full SCBA sets are found in fire stations, morgues and work lockers.
Notes
- The mask only protects against fumes once an Oxygen Tank is attached and switched on.
- Leaving the tank off saves 5 weight and frees the back for a backpack.
- Its bite and scratch protection is the same as the full SCBA.
- Half the usual vision makes it a poor choice for fighting in the open.
