Talk:Rebreather

What Science skill do I need to have to get this? TJbrena 20:17, October 24, 2010 (UTC)

i cant get it plz help, that thing happened where he is like go to hell, i rlly need to finish this quest so i can finish the game, i dont have an saves from a little before (i know im dumb) so if i went to a previous save, it be at like the beginning of the game

If talking to Jack before starting quest
the current way this bug is written is "If talking to Jack before starting the quest to get it, everytime you talk to jack he says "go to hell", you cannot pickpocket it from him or anything." first of all it just sounds grammatically incorrect, idk how it should be phrased but...it just doesn't sound like its written properly, i don't know written grammar that well so if it is grammatically correct well...correct me, lol Toolazytomakeaaccount 10:48, October 26, 2010 (UTC)

T.T im having that same problem. "Go to hell,outsider. Stay away from me." is all he is sayying

--doing the other boomers quests before talking to jack and get to at least accepted reputation level solves the issue.

i didn't have any problems with the quest, i was simply stating that grammatically that was wrongly written Toolazytomakeaaccount 04:57, November 8, 2010 (UTC)

Breaks Damage Threshold?
Does this realy "break" your DT? For a long time, I have never removed the mask, and I still have my full DT (and I know I do, I get the green shield marker and everything, and sometimes I "forget" to change from sexy sleepware to my armour after shopping, and I notice a big difference in the damage taken). Also, on the Pip-boy screen, in the top section it will falsh between DT and DR. More evidence, Med-x, Atomic Cocktail, and Fire Ant Nectar all add damage reistance, and they don't "break" your DT.

I just wanted to be sure before fixing the article. --MoronicCinamun 21:08, November 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * Both DR and DT are fully supported by the engine, it doesn't break anything. Ausir(talk) 10:42, November 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * Indeed, which is why I removed mention of this bug last night along with one about clipping issues which is non-notable. -- 11:11, November 10, 2010 (UTC)

Actually the rebreather broke my DT, I am taking large amounts of damage from giant mantis's, even though I have a DT of 32. even with the tiny amound of damage that bleeds through, giant mantisis shouldnt be a threat.

Giant mantis possiblely ignores DT, the same as mantis gauntlet.

It isnt breaking it however it will not show your dt in your pip boy so im putting that in

Science requirement
Check the wiki page, the requirement is 65 DMZ Sniper 22:21, November 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * No the requirement is 45. I checked the GECK. -- 12:47, November 17, 2010 (UTC)

Glasses
The article seems to suggest that glasses can be worn in conjunction with the rebreather in the characteristics sections, yet in the notes section it says otherwise. Anyone know which is correct? Krono &#39;Zulamee 02:03, November 18, 2010 (UTC)


 * The notes section is correct. The Rebreather takes up a "glasses" slot on the player, so you can't wear both in conjunction w/ one another. I've already tried multiple times just be to be sure, and it doesnt work. The   Jovar  02:14, November 18, 2010 (UTC)

Can the Rebreather be repaired?
I completed the mission to obtain the rebreather, but I received a broken rebreather. Is there any way to repair it? I didn't notice that it was broken until later in the game, when I went to use it for the first time, and couldn't.

UPDATE: Strange, but after shutting down the game and restarting, it appeared to be in fully-repaired condition.

Compatibility?
Is the rebreather compatible with the radiation suit? -Abel-021

Unfortunately no, it does not. Nor the Advanced or regular version equip the Rebreather at the same time. AR700SAW 19:18, January 27, 2011 (UTC)

DT/DR glitch
I've noticed on the Xbox 360 that sometimes when putting on then removing the Rebreather that the DT/DR display at the top of the Pip-Boy's Items goes away. I've tried putting the Pip-Boy down, then raising it up again. That didn't work. I tried repeatedly taking off and putting on different Armor(Reinforced Combat Armor Mark II, Remnants Power Armor), and again that did not solve the issue. Saving then Loading doesn't fix it either. Shutting down the console then starting up again from last save does fix it.

EDIT: I've found that when equipping the Rebreather then removing it while the stat is showing DR make the DT stat disappear. IsaacKronenFaust 09:25, December 25, 2010 (UTC)


 * I already included this under the bugs section. This happened to me as well on, but I was able to fix it by saving the game.  I have included the X-box logo for this bug as well, since you experienced this bug on that platform. Eganio{Talk} 19:34, January 27, 2011 (UTC)

Same bug here on, however I have noted that the bug happens when you do the following: -Equip any kind of 1+ DT armor -Equip the Rebreather -Look at the top of your pip-boy screen, it will cycle through your DT and DR -Unequip the Rebreather when it shows your DR -Bug occurs

To fix it, simply equip the Rebreather again, wait for it to show your DT and unequip it.

Please confirm that's how it happens on both consoles too, if yes then I'll change the bug description. Until you confirm I'll just add the PC icon there.  K1LL 17:04, June 30, 2011 (UTC)K1LL

Happens to me, and I'm on the 360. Also, sign your posts. --With care and happiness,  Supermutantslayer450'  You will know the truth... And the truth will set you free..  17:05, June 30, 2011 (UTC)

The rebreather, technically, should prevent the cloud effects
A rebreather works by filtering out CO2 and adding O2 from a contained source. Thus, it seems that it would protect from the effects of breathing it. I only bring this up because the notes sections says that it wouldn't work because it's not an air-filtration system. Neither is SCUBA, but I could use it to breathe in a toxic environment. The game not using it is of no concern here, but the notes section part being mistaken is. --99.92.76.100 01:52, August 30, 2011 (UTC)


 * Inhalation isn't the only thing that makes the cloud poisonous. It's corrosive; anything exposed to it begins to degrade.  Some of the computer terminals in the Sierra Madre are log entires of when the maintenance workers first encountered the cloud.  They tried using special suits but the cloud corroded the locking mechanisms and the workers had to be cut out of the suits.  Also, when you first encounter Elijah at the fountain in one of the dialogue paths he explains (paraphrasing here) that the cloud corrodes anything it touches and even rebreathing systems won't protect you from it.  130.11.35.85 13:09, October 4, 2011 (UTC)

Problems
I am idolized by the Boomers, but Jack still says "Go to hell outsider. Stay away from me". I need the rebreather for a different quest, but he wont give it to me. What do I do??
