high-powered magnet

Iron fragments mottle its cankered surfaces.

Perfect

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 floating 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 floating prevents them from being Jacked.
• Mechanical wings can be magnetized to provide flight from a Floating Nearby slot, as can Anti-gravity boots

Notably Non-Magnetizable Items

• Fullerite, Crysteel, or Zetachrome armor (though weapons and shields magnetize fine)
• Thermo cask or High-energy thermo cask
