force modulator is a low-cost cybernetic which can be installed into any slot. It allows the user to walk through or stand in forcefields, force barriers, and stasis fields. The latter will also not immobilize the implantee if generated on top of or moved through. The cybernetic has the additional benefit of preventing the user from being moved by the sudden generation of forcefields, such as from the Force Bubble Mutation.

Avantages&Disadvantages

This section is opinion-based. Your mileage may vary.

Advantages

  • Only costs one license point and can be installed into any available cybernetic slot, allowing for a high degree of flexibility.
  • Allows easy early access to Grit Gate by simply walking through the frontal force barrier.
  • Useful against creatures capable of possessing the Force Wall mutation such as Mechanimist preachers and svardym elds
  • Prevents the user from being incapacitated by stasis fields, however, while the user is able to move freely through the field, they do not receive the usual damage immunity, creatures in melee range and with ranged attacks are capable of damaging the user, provided they hit them directly. Any other stasis fields the user is not actively standing within, will retain its immunity to damage and ability to block projectiles.

Disadvantages

Tips

  • With this cybernetic installed, the user is capable of moving through the force bubble of chrome pyramids, allowing them to possibly disarm the pyramid of their deadly swarm rack.This is best accomplished with enhanced quickness to avoid being shot pointblank and some sort of movement tool such as pentaceps,pneumatic pistons and a grappling gun if the user also has phase-adaptive scope installed, which would allow the gun's cable pass through the forcefield.
  • Can be used with stasis projector to create paths of stasis which any pursing creature without the implant are unable to use.
