Clothes

Pathologic 2= "Modernity is a very active and aggressive element that’s always seeking to grow its influence. That’s why we have to level it out with “fluid things” wherever possible. We can’t let through a roleplayer who’s wearing sneakers. If authentic footwear isn’t an option, you can settle for something nondescript made of leather."

- From the Pathologic 2 artbook

Clothes are equippable items that serve as protective gear throughout Pathologic 2. They can be used to protect oneself from physical damage and infection, and cloaks can also be used to upgrade the Haruspex's inventory. All clothing items can be purchased from tailors, however some will not be available until a certain point in the game. That being said, occasionally items of clothing can be looted from houses prior to their formal introduction to stores.

Each clothing category excels in defending against one of the four major sources of plague, which are as follows:
 * Masks protect from plague clouds.
 * Cloaks protect from contact with diseased people.
 * Gloves protect from infected surfaces.
 * Footwear provide great protection from passive infection in infected districts.
 * Cloaks, masks and gloves also protect from passive infection, but much less than footwear.

All items from the same set have equal physical resistances. Clothing items lose durability whenever taking physical- or plague-based damage.

Both physical and disease resistances stack by sum.

Pathologic: The Marble Nest= The listed items are different types of protective gear found throughout Pathologic: The Marble Nest that can be used to protect oneself from infection.

Pathologic= "Clothes" is the second of five tabs in the player's inventory. This tab holds items that can be worn on the player's head, hands, torso, and feet. Clothes may provide blow softening, protection from bullets, protection from fire, and/or protection from infection. Clothes can be mended by women.

All resistances of clothes stack by sum. Note: physical resistance protects from fire, fire resistance is additional.
