Advantages
- Provides a sizeable boost to DV without taking an equipment slot.
- Additional DV is at least somewhat useful during most stages of the game.
- Fairly low cost.
- Dv is difficult to increase otherwise without significantly boosting agility or wearing equipment with low-AV values.
Disadvantages
- Focusing too heavily on DV at the expense of AV can lead to instant death when a hostile creature is able to successfully land an attack.
- Becomes less impactful during later stages of the game when the DV penalties from armor aren't as substantial.
- Once the user has a decent amount of gear, it's generally (though not always) better to use it to boost DV rather than taking up a finite cybernetics slot.
Tips
- Can be used with lower agility or heavy armor-wearing characters to improve survivability.
- Can be usefull for traveling in areas which are likely to spawn potentially dangerous ranged enemies such as the
laser turrets and 
low-light laser turrets of the 
ruins or the 
rifle turrets and 
chaingun turrets commonly found in the 
flower fields.
