Shocked (damage type)

Shocked is a damage type in Deus Ex. "Shocked" damage is caused by electrical hazards and spider bots. When "Shocked" damage is taken by the player, the HUD will display a blue indicator icon resembling an electric arc. "Shocked" is an internal name that only appears in game files.

Special properties
This damage type has no special properties, and causes no special effect. "Shocked" damage is generally used concurrently with EMP damage, which is a separate damage type. Unlike EMP damage, which causes no actual damage and is used only for special effects, "Shocked" damage has no special effects but causes actual damage.
