Generally it sounds rather interesting. I especially like the idea of the faulty scramble gear.
However, making it actually "work" would almost be too convenient... there should be a tiny chance of the gear fucking up or such.
Maybe them having a short every now and then....

Although it would be a little inconvenient at times. Imagine 096 standing in a room full of gas and perhaps 173 wouldn't be too far off too.
Which one would you rather wear... scramble gear or gas mask....hmmm!

Someone posted an idea of when you blink with the gear on it could glitch and you would see some of 096's face.

Here's an idea

When found its completely broken.
When put in on fine its partially working, but turns off when you blink because it thinks that because your eyes are closed. when you open your eyes it will take a second or two to reboot leaving you vulnerable. They could run on batteries. (Though you would need to add more battery spawns).
When put on VF everything is just blurry and broken. (Like how it broke the radio on VF)

079 could also flash pictures of 096 (And maybe feeds from 895's chamber) on the monitors (scramble gear still picks it up but newer players wouldn't know that, imagine the look on there face when 096 tears open the door.)

Speaking of 079... SCP-079 is considered a sentient being. Wouldn't that make it a potential victim for SCP-096?
I mean, it's considered a "living" being, capable of thought and such. If it were to view 096's face.... couldn't that potentially trigger its violent reaction?

Just a thought though... sorry..

It is a possibility. Perhaps they could use 096 to destroy 079, but who knows if he recognizes if it's staring at it's face.

While I'm not much of a fan of including scramble gear, as it's pretty op to begin with, I remember liking this idea greatly, as, surely the scramble won't be able to block out images the millisecond you open your eyes.

I don't think it would affect 079, what would 096 run to? 079 is everywhere in the facility.

an idea for the Scramble Gear... it needs batteries, but the battery needs to be a 18 v (witch is obtainable by placing a battery on 1:1 in 914)

Well, the small mainframe of SCP-079 COULD be considered its "body". But yeah, it's all just wild speculation on my part as I thought the idea in itself was interesting

If 096 were to walk around the facility, you'd basically have the chance of seeing it's face at any moment, it's completely unfair.

Maybe he roams in some scripted rooms while covering his face and if you bump to him, he will look around.

Generally the idea of a free roaming 096 is not too bad. But I still suggest that it should somehow be made possible to hear him from a distance. Otherwise it would become very VERY likely to become cornered eventually.
