The Strong Metabolism O/S Upgrade reduces damage from toxins and radiation by 25%.
Analysis[]
- Reduced effectivity against toxins, as they need to be purged with the Anti-Toxin Hypo.
- There are not that many radioactive areas in the game, and these can be managed with the Anti-Radiation Hypos, Hazard Suit, Neural Decontamination and decontamination rooms that are sometimes located next to irradiated areas.
- However, in the Body of the Many on Impossible difficulty, Strong Metabolism provides a wider margin when swimming in the irradiated water searching for the neural cluster.
