Suit (Pressure Re-Active Waterproof Nanosuit) (Mk.III), also known as Exosuit, is an unimplemented vehicle.

It is a powered suit of armor, designed for use in both the deep-sea and space, affording protection to a pilot whilst maintaining maximum dexterity with hydraulic limbs and a reinforced canopy. However, it is not directly worn, rather it is a large frame that can be piloted in a seated position. Unlike the other vehicles of the game, the Exosuit walks along the ocean floor, using thrusters to move vertically.

The Exosuit has its own beacon, similar to that of the Cyclops and Seamoth. The upgrade panel can be found on the top left of the Exosuit.

A 3D model of the Exosuit can be found on Sketchfab.

Overview

The Exosuit requires two power cells to operate. The user is able to dock the Exosuit into the Cyclops and Moon Pool, in a fashion similar to the Seamoth. The Exosuit will be used to explore dark and/or deep places. The Exosuit has a crush depth of 900 meters.

The Exosuit has a 6x2 storage compartment on the top of it, located at the back. Materials can be picked up from the seabed and be grabbed by the Exosuit, which will transfer it into the storage. In addition, the Propulsion Cannon for Exosuit can take items directly from the storage and fire them from the cannon.

The Exosuit can be upgraded the same way that the Seamoth can, though some upgrades such as the Storage Module and Pressure Compensators MK1, MK2 and MK3 will function in both the Exosuit and Seamoth, there are certain upgrades exclusive to the Exosuit, such as the Exosuit Jump Jet Upgrade and Exosuit Thermal Reactor.

Upon entering the Exosuit, the player's Oxygen stores will be replenished, unless the Exosuit is depleted of Energy. If this is the case, the oxygen will slowly run out, until the point where the player is losing oxygen within the Exosuit.

Like the Seamoth, the Exosuit has a health meter that will cause it to explode into fragments should it reach zero. However, unlike the Seamoth, the Exosuit is heavily armored and can endure most things that would otherwise severely damage or destroy a Seamoth, such as a Reaper Leviathan's grip.

How to Use

1. LMB and RMB to use the arms. LMB is a quick swing, RMB is a heavier, slower, more damaging swing.

2. SPACE for jump, hold for the thrusters. Note: The thrust will recharge after using it.

Upgrades and Customization

The Exosuit can be customized with the Seamoth Modification Station. The console will allow the Exosuit to be named and its colors to be changed. 

Unlike the the Cyclops and Seamoth, the Exosuit has six upgrade slots as opposed to four. However, two of the slots are strictly for arm upgrades, and can be identified by their red color.  

A torpedo arm, a grappling hook, a propulsion and a drill arm can be equipped in the exosuit.

Influence of Depth

Seamoth Depth Module	Crush Depth
None	900 meters
Pressure Compensator MK1	1000 meters
Pressure Compensator MK2	1300 meters
Pressure Compensator MK3	1700 meters

Future Plans

The Exosuit will be used to fight the Sea Dragon Leviathan.

Speculation

A piece of concept art seems to suggest that the Exosuit will be needed in order to safely cross the Inactive Lava Zone and Lost River. Whether this is due to pressure - as the Inactive Lava Zone is located at a depth of more than 1000 meters - or due to heat is unknown.

Early animations for the Exosuit can be viewed here.

Trello implies that the Exosuit/exosuit fragments can be obtained on the Aurora.

Data Bank Entry

The Pressure Re-Active Waterproof Nano Suit is a range of mechs designed to protect the pilot from extreme environments. The Mk.III is the latest iteration, and has so far only been rolled out by Alterra for their own high-value, phasegate-related operations.

• The suit is fully insulated from the outside environment
• Powerful hydraulic limbs allow for manipulation of objects and powered traversal of the environment
• Rear-mounted thrusters provide maneuverability in low-gravity environments
• A range of modifications are available to facilitate resource extraction and enhanced exploration
