Augmented Terrain Scanner
40
Doubles the terrain scanner’s range, allowing Sam to analyse terrain from a greater distance.
Sensor Mode Change
60
Adds a mode to the Odradek’s terrain scanner that reduces its overall detection area in order to increase the range.
Skeleton Auto-Assist
Allows Sam’s active skeleton to automatically adjust his posture, making it harder for him to lose his balance.
Self-Driving Support
100
Allowsvehicles to drivethemselves. This enhancement will activate upon reaching a certain speed, without boosting, when driving in the center of a road. It uses the road’s built-in power supply to assist with vehicle operation. Release the accelerator, and the vehicle will continue to drive along the road.
Battery Efficiency Boost
80
Reduces vehicles' battery consumption by 8%. This enhancement was inspired by the unwavering determination of porters to reach their destinations no matter their limitations.
Improved Floating Carriers
Dramatically reduces the rate at which floating carriers consume chiral crystals as they move. Riding floating carriers is now more efficient.
Super Balance Assistance
Makes it easier for Sam to keep his balance, even without an active skeleton. This enhancement will consume a small amount of chiral crystals while you are moving.
Instant Cargo Binding
Instantaneously generates an electromagnetic field whenever Sam falls over, binding his cargo and preventing it from scattering. Drains a small amount of energy from Sam’s battery pack upon activation. A wait time is required after each activation before the enhancement is ready to bind again.
Carrier Handling Boost
Dramatically improves the floating carrier’s manoeuvrability when Sam is riding it.
Projectile Predictor
Shows where incoming thrown projectiles, such as grenades or rods, are predicted to land by analysing real-time enemy movements.
Battery Discharger
Triggered using Circle. Deliberately shorts and discharges Sam’s battery to shock nearby enemies. Using this enhancement will also hurt Sam, and it cannot be used when using power combat gloves.
Improved Cannon Cooldown
Reduces the time the DHV Magellan’s cannon takes to cool down after firing. Once cooled, the cannon can be fired again.
Increased MP Firing Rate
Improves the rate of fire of weapons that use MP bullets and MP shells, substantially increasing your potential damage output.
Aim Assistance
When aiming a firearm, the targeting reticle will automatically center on an enemy within range.
Cargo Grenades
Allows you to throw cargo containers filled with grenades, which will detonate simultaneously.
Super Aim Assistance
200
When aiming a firearm, the targeting reticle will automatically center on an enemy. Aim assistance will be active over a larger range.
Super EM Plasma
180
Leverages super electromagnetic (EM) plasma to greatly increase the area of effect of electrical weapons.
Simpler Noise Canceler
20
Generates sound waves that are the precise inverse of those made by Sam’s footsteps, effectively neutralizing them and rendering his movements almost silent.
Proximity Alarm
Displays a warning to alert you to melee attacks launched from your blind spots.
Augmented Motion Scanner
Increases the time for which the results of the Odradek’s motion scanner are displayed. Detected entities will cease to be displayed if you get too close.
Faster Scanner Recharging
Reduces the recharge time of the Odradek’s sensors. Upon scanning, the results of the previous scan will disappear.
Enemy Vitals Indicator
Displays vital information on enemies detected by the motion scanner. When a non-lethal weapon is equipped, a gauge will show how close they are to being knocked out. When a lethal weapon is equipped, the gauge will show you how close they are to being killed.
Proximity Scanner
50
A short-range scanner that automatically detects and displays the silhouettes of all humans and animals within a 20m radius.
Improved Electrical Attacks
90
Boosts the power of electrical weapons and increases their area of effect.
Faster Order Preparation
Makes the process of reissuing standard orders more efficient, meaning they spend less time on standby once completed.
Weather Analysis Display
Looking towards the sky when in compass mode displays the weather forecast for your current location.
PCC Flood Warnings
25
Simulates rising water levels and provides flood warnings as necessary. This enhancement is activated when building structures such as bridges or jump ramps using a PCC.
Emergency Vehicle Charger
Allows Sam’s battery to supply power to vehicles that have fully depleted their charge. Press L3 in a vehicle to supply it with power.
Improved Water Filtration
Allows your canteen to fill more quickly when submerged in rivers or exposed to timefall.
Swift MULE Postbox Hacking
Dramatically reduces the time taken to hack and unlock MULE postboxes.
Improves the battery efficiency and damage resistance of coffin boards.
Construction Speed Boost
Dramatically increases the speed at which a PCC can build by optimizing the construction process.
Super Chiralium Extraction
Collects chiral particles from the atmosphere, gradually increasing your stock of chiral crystals.
Chiral Crystal Yield Boost
Occasionally allows a bumper haul of chiral crystals to be collected. This is done by recovering crystals that disperse during collection attempts.
Strand Contract Cap Boost
Increases the total number of Strand Contracts Sam can form, allowing more structures and other objects to be shared. Multiple instances of this enhancement can be applied, further increasing Strand Contract capacity.
Auto-Aid Request
A device that analyses your current situation and automatically issues aid requests to provide support for the next order. Online use only.
Sharing Boost
Increases the number of objects from other worlds that can be shared within the chiral network. Equipment that you would not ordinarily be able to make may be shared with you as a result. Multiple instances of this enhancement can be applied, further increasing the number of objects that can be shared.
