The Diving Helmet is an armor piece for the helmet slot. It has a 2% (1/50) chance of being dropped by Sharks. When equipped, it causes the Breath Meter to deplete much slower, allowing the player to last approximately a minute and a half before it runs out. It will also slow the damage caused by drowning.

Notes

  • The effect stacks with the Breathing Reed, allowing one to stay underwater for three minutes as well as further reducing suffocation damage.
  • Since sharks and orcas have moderate health and damage, the diving helmet may be difficult to obtain if the player is not prepared or has weak armour and/or weapons.

Trivia

  • Due to them being dropped by sharks and orcas, it's possible that the shark or orca who dropped it originally ate the helmet itself, or ate someone wearing the helmet.

History

  • 1.1.1: Now works correctly.
  • 1.1: Lost its ability to extend underwater breathing.
