FAQs
What are gas masks used for in Misery?
Gas Masks in Misery are used to safeguard yourself from radiation. They are an absolute necessity in a high radiation zone. You can find a lot of different varieties of gas masks in the game. You will especially need the masks to explore some highly irradiated bunkers.
What is the benefit of using a Military Gas Mask?
Military Gas Mask, when used with special armor, such as a Hazmat Suit or a Military Uniform, can slow down the rate of radiation poisoning. While it won’t make you completely immune to getting radiation, it can offer you enough time to explore before the radiation builds up to a dangerous level. So, if you use it, you won’t have to rush and miss out on some important loot in high radiation zones.
Can I find a Military Gas Mask in every emission?
No. There is no guarantee that a military gas mask will spawn in every emission. Some players have reported that they had to wait 60-70 emissions before they could get their hands on one. However, since its spawning is completely random, you just might get lucky and find it in earlier runs as well. We recommend that you keep exploring and looting,
What is the best spot to find Military Gas Masks?
Underground Labs are among the best spots to find Military Gas Masks. While you can also find them in various large military crates, there’s a higher probability that you will find them in underground labs. Explore all the shelves in these labs so you don’t accidentally miss out on a military mask.
