Deus Ex: Human Revolution/Augmentations

When Adam Jensen was hospitalized after an attack on Sarif Industries, it was necessary to heavily augment his destroyed body to save his life. Due to the extent of his injuries, it was unknown which portions of his body would need special stimulation to assist in his recuperation, so every part of his body was fitted with augmentation upgrade capabilities. Now that Jensen has made a full recovery, he can upgrade his different body parts at will, extending the utility of existing functions and giving him new augmented powers.

Augmentation upgrading is performed by spending Praxis points, which can be gained through the accumulation of experience points or by finding them throughout the game. Praxis points can be found in the game world like other items or they can be given to you by people as a reward for performing certain tasks. Additionally, a Praxis point will be added to your inventory automatically after every 5,000 experience points you earn.

You can spend Praxis points in the Augmentations tab of the menu. Augmentations are split up into sections by body part, and each augmentation can be a single upgrade or a tree of upgrades. For trees, you must purchase the upgrades in order to unlock the next level.

The Social Enhancer, or CASIE aug, displays emotional analysis data during conversations and allows you to release pheromones to influence people. During certain conversations where you can choose your dialog, you will see a persuasion meter, personality type meter and emotional makeup synopsis. As you select dialog choices, the dotted line running across the persuasion meter will rise or fall indicating your success in achieving a beneficial outcome. The personality type meter will flash one to three bars under Alpha, Beta or Omega depending on the person's mood and personality and these indicators can help you choose the right dialog choices. Whichever trait flashes last, choose the dialog option in the corresponding direction, with Alpha being the left choice, Beta the middle choice and Omega being the right choice. If you persuasion level is high enough, you will be prompted during the conversation to release your pheromones and choose a dialog option. As before, choose the option that corresponds with the last trait to flash. In the personality synopsis, you can read what is motivating the person and use this information to inform your dialog choices.

The Infolink is a standard communication device that allows anyone who knows your frequency to contact you via radio signal. This is the normal way Sarif personnel keep in contact and update you with objectives. However, others you come in contact with throughout the game will also use the Infolink to talk to you and add objective markers to your HUD.
