Bioferrite

Bioferrite

An exotic metal-like fibrous substance with both organic and metallic properties. Bioferrite is produced by microscopic mechanites as they process organic material. In cases of disordered mechanite behavior, this happens in a chaotic, cancer-like way.
The material is known to interact with some types of psychic flows. If pressurized under specific conditions, bioferrite becomes extremely flammable, making it a useful fuel.

ACQUISTION TEXT

Summary

Equipment made of bioferrite have additional effects beyond the normal statistical effects of the material. These effects scale with the quality of the item made.

Equipped items made from bioferrite apply a multiplier to the wearer's psychic sensitivity. These multipliers stack multiplicatively with one another and with other bonuses from eltexContent added by the Royalty DLC items [Prestige]

Quality Awful Poor Normal Good Excellent Masterwork Legendary
Psychic Sensitivity ×1.06 ×1.08 ×1.1 ×1.13 ×1.15 ×1.17 ×1.20

For example, a pawn with a base psychic sensitivity of 100%, a psychic sensitizerContent added by the Royalty DLC, a normal eltex shirtContent added by the Royalty DLC, and a bioferrite item of normal, good, and excellent quality, would result in a psychic sensitivity of:

Psychic sensitivity = ((100% + 25%) + 8.3%) * 1.1 * 1.13 * 1.15 = 191%

Equipped items made from bioferrite apply an offset to both neural heat limit and neural heat recovery rateContent added by the Royalty DLC, which stacks additively. Note that the heat limit bonus stacks with the bonus to the limit from the increased psychic sensitivity, however due to the sensitivity bonus' multiplicative nature the total bonus cannot be easily quantified without assuming what other bonuses to snesitivty a pawn may have.

    Analysis

    Excellent for sharp melee weapons - while its DPS is lower than plasteel, it is close and it has significantly more AP and per attack damage. It is unclear if it this leads to a win for bioferrite on melee stats alone. Combined with the psychic boosts however, and it becomes powerful in the hands of a psycaster.Content added by the Royalty DLC

    Bioferrite is likely better than eltexContent added by the Royalty DLC for buffing psycasters, as bioferrite is much more reliably obtained both generally and at high qualities, the stacking is multiplicative with other buffs, and unlike eltex, bioferrite can provide a respectable amount of armor.

    The exact math on the optimum set up has yet to be determined and likely depends on some assumptions, but eltex shirt,Content added by the Royalty DLC bioferrite weapon, bioferrite slave collarContent added by the Ideology DLC, bioferrite helmet, and bioferrite plate armor is a candidate for maximising buffs.
