Biomod

From DeusEx Wiki

Biomods are the Invisible War equivalent to Deus Ex augmentations. Biomods, like augmentations, enhance the users physically. Biomods are installed with biomod canisters. These canisters can also be used to upgrade already-installed biomods (Level 3 is the highest level possible for any biomod). Some biomod canisters are black-market biomods, and can only be obtained in illegal situations (hence the name). Biomods can also be installed through a biomod infusion, which is a biomod application without the use of canisters. Below is a list of biomods found in Invisible War:

[edit] Unclassified

Light: Light is a long and short-range flashlight. This is useful for lighting this games many dark areas. This biomod does not use up bioenergy unlike its Deus Ex counterpart.

[edit] Eye Biomod

Regeneration: This biomod heals damage sustained by the player. This biomod reduces the need for medkits and food, and its healing ability improves with each upgrade.

Vision Enhancement: This allows the player night vision. When upgraded to Level 2, the player can see organic enemies through walls, but not electronic devices or bots. When upgraded to Level 3, the player can see all targets through walls.

Spy Drone: Spy Drone creates a hovering robot that allows the player to scan areas he/she cannot reach himself/herself. It can also release an EMP blast to disable electronic devices. When upgraded to Level 2, its EMP attack improves, its energy drain decreases, and the drone can transmit sound. When upgraded to Level 3, the energy drain decreases even further, and its EMP blast becomes so powerful, that it can interfere with nervous systems, knocking organic enemies unconscious. This is one of the black-market biomods.

[edit] Cranial Biomod

Cloak: This makes you invisible to organic enemies, but not to electronic devices and bots. When you use a weapon, you become visible to the enemy. Each upgrade reduces energy drain.

Hazard Drone: This biomod protects its user from toxins and radiation. When upgraded to Level 2, the Drone's protection increases, and its energy drain declines. At Level 3, the Drone can convert hazards to bioenergy.

Neural Interface: This biomod allows the user to hack electronic devices, including computers and ATMs. This hacking power improves with each upgrade; at Level 2, the user can hack cameras, and at Level 3, the user can hack turrets. This is one of the black-market biomods.

[edit] Skeletal Biomod

Aggressive Defense Drone: This biomod detonates incoming rockets and grenades in midair. The distance between user and explosive increases with each upgrade. (This biomod can be obtained in Tracer Tong's biomod infusion.)

Thermal Masking: This biomod makes you invisible to bots and electronic devices, but not organic enemies. The invisibility effect lasts as long as you don't use a weapon. The energy drain decreases with each upgrade.

Electrostatic Discharge: This biomod charges melee weapons with an EMP field. This weapon's EMP effect increases with each upgrade, and at Level 3, it gains the ability to scramble bots. This is one of the black-market biomods.

[edit] Arm Biomod

Strength Enhancement: This is a remake of the DX1 augmentation Microfibrial Muscle. This biomod increases the player's strength, allowing him/her to carry heavy objects. With each level, you gain a slot in your inventory and your strength increases, allowing you to carry heavier objects and deal more melee damage.

Biotox Attack Drone: This drone fires biotoxin darts at the target, knocking him/her/it unconscious. Each upgrade reduces its energy drain.

Bot Domination: As the name suggests, this biomod allows the user to take control of a bot for a limited period of time. With each upgrade, its energy drain decreases, bot size capability increases (that is, you can control larger bots with each upgrade), and domination time increases. This is one of the black-market biomods.

[edit] Leg Biomod

Move Silent: This biomod muffles walking steps at Level 1, walking and jogging steps at Level 2 and all steps at Level 3. It also reduces fall damage. The fall buffer increases with each upgrade.

Speed Enhancement: This biomod increases the player's speed, jumping distance and reduces all fall damage. All these effects improve with each upgrade.

Health Leech Drone: This biomod allows the user to suck the matter out of corpses to heal himself/herself. Each level increases the healing efffect. You get more health for draining unconsious people/animals than dead people/animals. This is one of the black-market biomods.
