Augmentation canister (DX)

Augmentation canisters are items in Deus Ex used to install new augmentations. Augmentation canisters can only be used when a medical bot is present.

Use
An augmentation canister provides the option of installing one of two mutually exclusive augmentations. Augmentations are installed through the interface that appears when interacting with a medical bot.

There are 9 augmentation canisters, each corresponding to one of the 9 augmentation slots, which include three torso slots and two dermal slots. Two or three copies of each augmentation canister can be found throughout the game, with the exception of the canister for the Synthetic Heart / Power Recirculator, which appears only once.

Duplicate copies of augmentation canisters are only needed if the previous copy was not found. Once an augmentation canister has been installed, there is no longer any use for duplicate copies of the same canister. Augmentation upgrade canisters are then used to level up the installed augmentation.
