The Monolith suit is a protective suit of the Monolith faction. It is obtainable to the player only in S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl, but appears in all three games.

DescriptionEdit

Created by an unknown manufacturer, this suit consists of a splinter pattern urban camouflage radiation suit/battledress uniform with arm, elbow and kneepads of reinforced leather, a green tactical vest with carrying pouches and a mounting place for either two oxygen tanks, a backpack or a closed-circuit Curtain helmet life support system. The vest's protection is slightly worse than that of a PSZ-7a military bulletproof vest^[1].

The Monolith suit is just as competitive in terms of protection as Duty's PSZ-9d Duty Suit and Freedom's Guardian of Freedom Suit with very few differences however its lack of NVGs is somewhat discouraging.

It is usually worn in two combinations - either with a gas mask or a black balaclava or facemask and a backpack. Some Monolithians wear this suit but use the Curtain helmet, which is the same helmet/mask used on the SEVA Suit. This variant is called the Scientific Monolith suit.

AppearancesEdit

Shadow of ChernobylEdit

AcquisitionEdit

The suit can be found in the following places:

X18 locker room
A random stash also in X18 inside a safe behind some junk. Also has a rare Night Star along with it.
Monolith headquarters in Pripyat.
One might find a few of these suits along the roads of the Red Forest, inside trailers.
Also in Red Forest, near the entrance to X19, there is a trailer containing two of them; a rare find.

Clear SkyEdit

The suit is identical in appearance, however, all Monolithians wear it along with a gas mask (loner variant).

Call of PripyatEdit

See above.

TriviaEdit

Unlike the popular Sunrise suit based armors which the Monolith suit was based on, this sports a tactical vest around the armor similar to that of the Wind of Freedom Suit which Sunrise suit based armors do not posses.
Despite being described as lacking an air-filtration system, the inventory icon clearly shows a half-mask respirator hanging around the neck area

DevelopmentEdit

Originally, the suits came in solid olive-drab camouflage instead of the characteristic urban camo and were intended for the Duty faction.
