Quicksilver Reflex Booster returns as an augmentation in Deus Ex: Mankind Divided. Just like in the previous game, Deus Ex: Human Revolution, activating this augmentation will allow Adam Jensen to perform multiple takedowns on two targets if they're close enough together.

Description

 * The Quicksilver Reflex Booster is essentially a supercharger for the human nervous system.


 * The Booster works by activating the "attention" button in the parasympathetic nervous system. While activating the vagus nerve, burst of norepinephrine and acetylcholine flood the motor cortex and enabled rapid learning and re-learning, along with increased bursts of mental focus.


 * This enables military personnel, athletes, and physical performers to execute quicker, more impressive feats of strength and dexterity.


 * Perform more coordinated feats of strength and dexterity.
 * Activation cost: 2 Praxis
 * Activation: contextual

Multiple Takedown

 * When supported by the Eye Know Retinal Prosthesis, the Cybernetic Arm Prosthesis, and the Quicksilver Reflex Booster, the Palaestra software upgrade supports the user during attempts to physically overpower two adversaries simultaneously.


 * Body-tracking software in the module ties closely to the Cybernetic Arm Prosthesis, allowing the user to plan highly complex and precise physical acts, and carry them off with near 100% accuracy.


 * Perform takedowns on two adjacent adversaries simultaneously.

Trivia

 * "Quicksilver" is the common name of the chemical element, which in turn was named after the Roman god , known for his speed and mobility.
