bionic arm is a moderate cost cybernetic implant which upon installation grants the user a +2 bonus to Strength.

The bonus unlike boosts from gear is considered a full part of the user's strength total, allowing it to count towards the attribute requirementsfor certain skills. Additionally the extra strength effectively provides the user with an extra 30 pounds of carry weight, a +1 to their PV value and an additional +1 to strength related saves.

Advantages & Disadvantages

Advantages

• The addtional PV effecttviely grants a flat bonus to melee damage, improving the effectiveness and damage ponteital of any character, melee-focused or not.
• Additional carry weight especially when augmented with a nylon bodypack or molly netting can be useful for traveling through loot rich locations like the ruins or baroque ruins.

Disadvantages

• Can be fully replaced by injecting two Eaters' nectar injectors and boosting strength, freeing up the armslot for an implant with effects that cannot be as easily replicated such as grafted mirror arm, medassist module penetrating radar.
• Moderate cost can be a bit prohibitive depending on the user's license tier and build goals.
