Brick Mask

The Brick Mask is the face armor piece of the Brick set, found in The Sewers. It shares the same stat profile as the Brick Hat: +4 Shield, -1 Speed, and Bruise 1 on any unit that makes contact. The contact Bruise punishes enemies for approaching, making this best on frontline cats holding a position rather than chasing targets.

Stacking Brick set pieces multiplies the passive contact-damage effect. The Speed penalty across multiple pieces can become significant, so weigh whether the accumulated Shield and Bruise output is worth the reduced action economy. Pairs well with abilities that benefit from enemies staying close.
