Environmental Resistance

Environmental Resistance is a torso augmentation in ''Deus Ex. ''It is a nanotechnological augmentation that decreases the damage and effects of toxins.

This augmentation is installed from the augmentation canister that also includes Aqualung. Since there are multiple instances of this canister and multiple torso slots, it is possible to install both Aqualung and Environmental Resistance by using a second copy of the canister, provided that the necessary slots are available.

This is an active augmentation that consumes bioenergy at 20 units/minute.
