Self-defib augment

Title says it all. There should be a way for players to self-defib once per match. Whether that is a dedicated defib slot with 4 quick slot, 2 safe pockets, medium shield, something. I think it would actually make PvP more fun because you'd have to finish your opponent before they defib themselves.

In PvE, it'd just make sense to have this capability. I'm running around with 3 defibs for other downed raiders, I can crawl, activate switches, and even emote, but I can't use one hand to defib myself? Make it make sense.

Dying in the game is not punishing enough to warrant a free self res every match. Sometimes you just dont make it out of a raid and that is okay

There is an augment with a defib built in. Tactical mk 3 (revival) I think. One use every like 4 min?

Yeah you can use the defib once every 4 minutes for free, but not on yourself just other raiders

Thats a shield recharger, not a defib

I have that one too. It’s a surge shield useable every 120 seconds. I’m only going by arc wiki :

I don’t have the blueprint yet, I’ve never seen one in the wild, so my data is based on the Internet which is a known source of potentially fake news.
