How to Manage and Survive Cyberpsychosis

Understanding the Cyberpsychosis Mechanic

Installing cybernetic augmentations provides significant combat and survival advantages, but expanding your mechanical body comes with a threshold. If you install too many augmentations into your player character, you will trigger cyberpsychosis.

Cyberpsychosis represents mental and physical instability caused by excessive hardware integration, destabilizing your character and threatening your ability to survive normally.

Staying in Control Through Combat

Unlike standard status effects that can simply be waited out or cured with milk, cyberpsychosis demands violent action:

1. When cyberpsychosis activates, you must continually engage in combat to stay in control of your character.

2. Track down hostile cyborg mobs, vanilla monsters, or other targets immediately.

3. Defeat enemies in sustained battles to keep the effects of cyberpsychosis in check.

If you plan to run a heavily augmented character, ensure you always carry durable weapons and stay close to areas with high mob spawns. Sustained aggression is the only way to retain control while carrying heavy cybernetic loads.
