Stoneskin gland

Stoneskin gland

This bionic gland releases chemicals and nanomachines that transform the user's skin into a built-in suit of armor. The whole epidermis thickens and hardens to resist burns, while jointed exterior keratin plates form everywhere they can - including the head and face. While it's very difficult to physically hurt someone using this implant, the plates and hard skin significantly reduces the user's physical attractiveness.

The Stoneskin Gland is an implant added by the Royalty DLC that gives the host pawn natural armor, in exchange for making them uglier and slower.

Acquisition

It is made with Plasteel 25 Plasteel and Advanced component 8 advanced components at the fabrication bench, after the Skin Hardening research is completed. The required techprint can be obtained either by trade or completing quests for the Empire. They require a crafting skill of 8.

Summary

Pawns that are implanted with a stoneskin gland gain a bonus to Sharp/Blunt/Heat Armor by 70/30/50% respectively, considered as its own layer for the purposes of armor calculations. It also reduces pawn beauty by 2 and multiplies moving by 85%, a 15% reduction. In turn, the penalty to moving reduces the move speed, hunting stealth, and melee dodge chance of a pawn.

Analysis

It provides a moderate amount of protection, though not to the point where it's "very difficult" to hurt a user as the description implies.
