CLEAR!
This review was machine-translated from the Japanese original. Numbers are checked against the original; if the wording reads oddly, the Japanese version is authoritative.
“The closer you are to death, the more charge returns” pinch-specialized repair kit. Made by Jakobs, when HP falls below 20% there is a 50% chance that the repair kit’s charge recovers by 1. True to its name “Defibrillator”, the more dangerous the situation, the more the recovery count is amplified, making it an emergency resuscitation type.
🧩 Red text source “CLEAR!” is the shout used in medical settings just before the Defibrillator (Defibrillator) delivers electric Shock to a patient, warning those nearby “don’t touch = stay back”. It’s a staple phrase in drama and movie resuscitation scenes, directly tied to the item name (more a medical trope reference than a specific work citation. Web verification).
What kind of repair kit? (Beginner’s perspective)
- Repair Kit (Jakobs). In addition to normal healing, it has a recovery effect in pinch situations
- When HP falls below 20%, there is a 50% chance that the repair kit’s charge recovers by 1
- The deeper you step into the danger zone, the more recovery counts increase = insurance for high‑risk play that hangs on low HP
- In a “one hit left before death” scenario, an extra recovery chance emerges, emergency resuscitation type
Unique Effects (Mechanics)
When HP falls below 20%, there is a 50% chance to recover 1 charge of the repair kit.
- In-game: HP below 20% with 50% chance to recover repair kit charge
- **Web (Lootlemon) **: When Health falls below 20%, the Defibrillator has a 50% Chance to replenish a Repkit Charge.
- Weakness: 50% chance and low HP (below 20%) as activation condition = not stable. Depends on luck and playstyle
