Defense in The Surge 2 is a Defensive Stat that reduces the amount of raw damage the player will receive after being hit by an enemy. Defense is provided by Gear and can be boosted with Implants. Crafting higher level Gear or upgrading it will provide with additional defense.
Defense Use:
- Reduces the amount of raw damage the player will receive after being hit by an enemy
How to increase Defense:
- Defense is provided by Gear and can be boosted with Implants.
- Crafting higher level Gear or upgrading it will provide with additional defense.
- Defense can be boosted by using Tissue Hardening Injection
Notes and Tips:
- A player may benefit from up to +250 Defense explicitly from defense buffs (SCARAB Set / URBN Set / MG Cerberus Set bonuses count toward this, as does the Tissue Hardening Injection, or when triggering the Deflection Hardener or Deflection Auto-Defender implants (e.g. the player using three pieces of MG Cerberus Set with 5 batteries (+100 Defense), three pieces of SCARAB Set with 5 batteries (+100 Defense) and Tissue Hardening Injection (+100 Defense) will only receive +250 Defense from buffs instead of +300 Defense.
- If a player equips the Kineto-Channel Dynamo implant, the player may then benefit from an additional +250 Defense from defense buffs.
- If a player equips the Pain Enhancer implant, the player may then benefit from an additional +1000 Defense from defense buffs.
- A player may stack the Pain Enhancer and Kineto-Channel Dynamo implants to allow the player to benefit from an additional +1250 Defense from defense buffs. In this scenario, SCARAB Set / URBN Set / MG Cerberus Set partial sets at 5 batteries, Tissue Hardening Injection, Deflection Hardener, and Deflection Auto-Defender now stack.
