Rebreather

The rebreather is a piece of head gear in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics
It provides a Damage Resistance of 3, and grants unlimited oxygen while submerged underwater. Also, you can't drop or sell this item as a quest item, and the condition will be always full. It fills the glasses slot, so it does not prohibit the wearing of headgear that only covers the top of your head, but it does prohibit wearing any glasses even though it does not cover your eyes.

Locations
Nellis Hangars - Can be received from Jack upon initiating the quest to recover the B-29 Bomber from the bottom of Lake Mead, as long as you have the proper Science skill, or a Pressure cooker. There is a Pressure cooker at Fields' Shack just before the Nellis Air Force Base Artillery Field. Fast travelling to this location makes it easy to acquire the Rebreather. Alternately, a Pressure cooker can be found in the kitchen of the Lucky 38 Presidential Suite (top shelf above the counter).

You can also find a Pressure cooker in the Cap Counterfeiting Shack.

Bugs

 * After the quest is completed, the Rebreather is still marked as a quest item, so it can't be sold or dropped. You may also obtain the Rebreather upon completion of the quest.


 * The rebreather provides damage resistance instead of damage threshold. Because of this, it breaks damage threshold and should not be used. (It's not meant to give damage threshold, and it still takes 3% of all damage away from taken damage)
 * If you have long facial hair, it can clip through the Rebreather, making it look kind of awkward.

Appearances
The rebreather appears in Fallout: New Vegas.
