In Dead Space: Extraction, the Stasis Module is obtained in the Megavents in the first chapter, becoming a permanent part of the player's arsenal. This is why Twitchers exhibit their odd rapid twitching behavior. When transformed into Necromorphs, the modules merge into the flesh and the Stasis is somehow reversed, dramatically speeding up the newly created monster, rather than slowing it down. Later on in the story, it is revealed that EDF Marines, such as the ones on the USM Valor, have Stasis Modules built into their RIGs. Upgrades can be done using Power Nodes, allowing for more Stasis Shots and greater duration of a single application. The arm and hand elements each have a short cylindrical part that presumably aid in focusing the aim of the stasis bolt. It appears as a band secured to Isaac's left forearm via three metal straps, with a secondary component secured to the back of his hand via an attached glove slip. Once obtained, the Stasis Module becomes a permanent part of Isaac's equipment. The Stasis Module is found in the first chapter of Dead Space. In Dead Space 2 and Dead Space 3, Stasis slowly recharges by itself over time.Ġ5 February 2013 Appearances Dead Space To recharge Stasis, Isaac Clarke must either use Recharge Stations scattered about the environment or use Stasis Packs picked up and stored in the inventory. Its energy efficiency and duration can be upgraded with Power Nodes via workbenches, just like all other equipment. ![]() It appears as a bluish half-circle to the right of the health indicator, which drains as Stasis Energy is fired. Stasis Energy can be monitored via an all-purpose indicator embedded in the RIG suit's armor, covering the user's right shoulder blade. Judging from its use in the P-Sec and Soldier RIGs, it is also apparent that the Stasis Module is used as a non-lethal weapon when apprehending dangerous criminals, presumably freezing them temporarily so that they can be handcuffed. Ĭommercially, it is used to slow down dangerous malfunctioning equipment until it can be repaired or replaced. ![]() That said, stasis has found wide applications in the surgical field, where patients who are suffering from otherwise terminal conditions or incredible trauma (such as the loss of whole limbs) can be put into stasis while suitable equipment and staff are assembled and organized to render treatment. However, stasis merely shifts the afflicted into a slower "state" of time bodily functions relative to the afflicted individual(s) still work (relative to their temporal state), and hence, they do not come to harm. It was initially suspected that living organisms subject to such a temporal slow down would die, as aerobic and anaerobic activities, vital to life, would be affected. All motion and physical activity "slows" relative to normal time. In layman's terms, "stasis" modules allow the suspension of a field of "slowed" time in a designated volume. ![]() Stasis is a field of science and technology based on advanced quantum physics. The Stasis Module attached to Isaac Clarke's left forearm and hand.
