The Energy/Projectile Shield is a hardware attachment found in System Shock. It absorbs the destructive effects of high-speed projectiles and energy beams. The amount of damage absorbed depends on what shield version you’ve grafted onto your interface. When activated, the shield causes the posture character to glow. Later versions give you better protection, but cost more energy.

Usage
