high-powered magnet
Iron fragments mottle its cankered surfaces.
When applied to an item which:
- Is made of metal
- Weighs less than or equal to 100#
- Does not have gesticulating
- Does not have onboard power systems (such as from the Jacked modification)
- Can be unequipped
- Has been modded less than 3 times
A high-powered magnet will "magnetize" them, allowing them to be equipped in the "Floating nearby" equipment slot. Because applying magnetized to the item counts as a mod, items that can otherwise be magnetized cannot be if they already have 3 mods.
Notable Magnetizable Items
- Carbide plate armor is the highest tier of standard armor that can be magnetized. It gives a high AV bonus at the cost of DV, and will add to your rather than averaging with your body armor defense since Floating Nearby is a different slot type.
- Chassis plate (if Fitted with suspensors to negate its weight) can provide very high AV at a fairly small DV penaltiy. However, as a Gigantic item it will take two Floating Nearby slots to use.
- Precision nanon fingers can be magnetized, with their effect chance benefits stacking additively with any copies worn on any regular hands. However, being magnetized prevents them from being Jacked.
- High tier melee weapons and shields can be magnetized where armor of tiers above Carbide cannot. Two-handed melee weapons magnetize to use only a single Floating Nearby slot.
- Most guns can be magnetized, but being magnetized prevents them from being Jacked.
- Mechanical wings can be magnetized to provide flight from a Floating Nearby slot, as can Anti-gravity boots
Notable Non-Magnetizable Items
- Fullerite, Crysteel, or Zetachrome armor (though weapons and shields of the same material magnetize fine)
- Thermo cask or High-energy thermo cask
