Understand Physique
Useful when…
- Increase squad maximum Health with an Aura slot.
- Choose a health-pool bonus rather than regeneration or airborne damage reduction.
Effect and application
Physique is a standard Aura with Vazarin polarity. It grants +3% Maximum Health at rank 0, +13% at rank 3, and +20% at rank 5 to the squad. Its Aura slot type distinguishes it from ordinary standard mods.
Alternatives by purpose
Dreamer’s Bond lists Energy regeneration and Health regeneration for the squad; Rejuvenation lists Health regeneration. Aerodynamic instead reduces squad damage while airborne and adds Aim Glide and Wall Latch time. Those are different benefits: Physique increases maximum Health rather than regenerating it or conditioning protection on being airborne.
Ranking and limits
The mod reaches rank 5. The listed rank 4-to-5 step costs 320 Endo and 15,456 Credits. Rank it when the additional maximum Health is worth the resources; the provided effect does not describe healing, regeneration, or damage reduction.
Limitations and tradeoffs
- Uses the Aura slot, which could provide another squad effect.
- Maximum Health does not itself restore lost Health.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Expecting Physique to heal or regenerate Health.
- Confusing maximum Health with damage reduction.
