Items

Welcome to the Items page of the Shadowrun: Sega Genesis Shrine.

Items are essential to every game. Although Shadowrun has very few items when compared to other RPG's such as Final Fantasy, they still play a key role in beating the game.

Ammo Clips
All weapons use the same ammo.

Cyberware
Human limbs can be replaced easily. Replaced limbs tend to act better than before, giving the recipient abilities not previously possessed. The drawback is a reduced Essence, which limits the amount of cyberware a person can have. This in turn may reduce the Magic attribute of a mage. A lowered essence also makes magical healing more difficult. Once installed, cyberware cannot be removed.

Magic Items
There are also a few magical items. These items can be bought at the three magic stores in the game: Merlin's Lore in Renraku Arcology, Riannon's in the Puyallup Barrens, and The Medecine Lodge on Council Island. These items are only for sale to mages and shamans, due to the fact that they are the only ones who can use them.

  • Fetishes
    In order to reduce the mental drain from high-powered spells, magicians carry fetishes. These absorb the drain, and crumble to dust after being used.
  • Power Focus
    More powerful still is a Power Focus, which increases a magician's spellcasting force for all spells. This device is quite rare, and usually not found in Magic stores.
  • Spell Focus
    Spell success can be increased by any magician carrying the correct Spell Focus. Whatever the success rating was before, the magician now casts at the higher rating, but without the extra drain of higher-powered spells.
    Note: The level of Spell Focus you buy, corresponds to the percent increase in power. Example: Level 2 = 20% increase, Level 3 = 30%, etc.
  • Spell Lock
    This magical device that has a certain spell cast on it forever. Spell Locks include items such as a Protection Talisman, which permanently increases the magician's defenses, and Combat Sense, which decreases the magician's difficulty when attacking.
  • Medkit
    This is a complex first-aid device. It quickly administers medical care to the recipient, but is only as useful as the owner's Biotech skill. Character Damage and Body attribute can make using it more or less difficult. Each medkit has six uses total.

    Slap Patches
    Each patch can be used six times, and will automatically heal 20% damage.

  • Trauma Patches heal Physical Damage.
  • Stim Patches heal Mental Damage.
  • Weapon Accessories
    Weapon accessories increase certain aspects of your firearm. For example, when you purchase the silencer for a light or heavy pistol, it reduces the loudness of the gun when fired. This is essential when doing a shadowrun on a corporation. Another example would be using the Gas Vent II or III. This accessory increases the accuracy of SMG fire.

    Below is a list of all the items found in Shadowrun. The price list for all items, as well as cyberdeck & programs can be found at the Prices page.
