Combat Strength

Summary
Combat Strength is one of the nano-augmentations in Deus Ex.

"Sorting rotors accelerate calcium ion concentration in the sarcoplasmic reticulum, increasing an agent's muscle speed several-fold and multiplying the damage they inflict in melee combat."

- Deus Ex description

It is the complement of Microfibral Muscle - the player must choose one or the other when installing the augment in the Arms slot.

Tiers

 * TECH ONE: The effectiveness of melee weapons is increased slightly.
 * TECH TWO: The effectiveness of melee weapons is increased moderately.
 * TECH THREE: The effectiveness of melee weapons is increased significantly.
 * TECH FOUR: Melee weapons are almost instantly lethal.

Energy Rate: 20 Units/Minute

Mechanics
25% increase in melee weapon damage per augmentation level added to the damage bonus from weapons skills(if any).

Tactics
Using the Dragon's Tooth Sword in combination with this augmentation at Tech Four will allow you to destroy cameras, turrets, and alarm sounder panels with one strike. You can also break any door with a damage tolerance of 50% or lower. Most doors, hatches, etc. have damage levels at 50%, making this extremely useful.

Locations

 * 1) On the top of the Statue of Liberty, in the room where the NSF Colonel Leo Gold is.

Shifter Mod
The Combat Strength augmentation is completely removed in the Shifter mod, having been combined with Microfibral Muscle. It is replaced by the "Electrostatic Discharge" augmentation, which makes melee attacks do lots of extra damage against bots.
