While both Hume Shield and Artificial HP both work somewhat similar to each other, they are two different things. Hume Shield will regenerate over time back to its base value, while Artificial HP slowly decays over time. Artificial HP also only absorbs 70% of damage taken instead of 100%.

==Lore==
An audible sound effect will play when an SCP runs out of Hume Shield. The max distance this can be heard is 37 meters away, but has a very fast fall off distance. This sound effect is unaffected by the "audio dampening" effect caused by [[C.A.S.S.I.E.]] announcements.
The anomalous abilities of all SCPs cause them to generate Hume Shield, giving them a form of protection. The more powerful their anomalous traits are, the more Hume Shield they generate. It has been noticed that SCPs will generate more Hume Shield than normal when actively using their anomalous abilities. Hume Shield levels return to normal when said activity ceases.

This article is about the Hume Shield. For pages with similar naming, see the Secondary HP (Disambiguation) page.

Hume Shield is a Mechanic in SCP: Secret Laboratory that acts similar to Artificial HP, but is exclusive to SCPs and has different mechanics.

Description

The anomalous abilities of all SCPs cause them to generate Hume Shield, giving them a form of protection.
While this form of protection can be damaged with simple firearm (or other sources of damage), this only acts as a temporary solution as Hume Shield levels will return to normal levels if left alone. This period of time and how quickly an SCP regenerates their Hume Shield back to their normal levels is not consistent between SCPs. It is currently impossible to calculate the Hume Shield levels for some SCPs.

In Game

Hume Shield will absorb 100% of all damage an SCP takes, until it is depleted.
Hume Shield exist to allow SCPs to still be viable late game while also making them not be taken down easily with chip damage.

An audible sound effect will play when an SCP runs out of Hume Shield. The max distance this can be heard is 37 meters away, but has a very fast fall off distance. This sound effect is unaffected by the "audio dampening" effect caused by C.A.S.S.I.E. announcements.
