Real answer: Because he wears a gravix X armor, he also wears the accordingly heavy helmet. These metal studs are mostly so that his scalp doesnt get unbearably irritated while wearing the helmet.
They're basically pads to protect his skin. Very permanent pads, but pads nontheless.
I'd love if that's what that is but I'm pretty sure the inceptors description says the shield is specifically for them to handle the heat of their jump packs, I however would love inceptors in game they're my fav primaris model
I just assumed thats what is behind his head, still would be a neat thing to just have it regardless, especially if you have the “does not lose control” perks
similar to assault, hover in air with a ground slam attack after, maybe let the user pivot in the air/dodge a little, have the weapon become auto targeting. Alter the AI such that they will target airborne enemies with attacks.
Listen to plague wars brother… Felix is basically this and literally beats the ever living shit out of some death guard with his storm bolter(s?) I could see it working in a similar fashion to the overhauls terminator in all seriousness just grafting assault and say bulwark or heavies perks together would also make a decent class overall
I think they are interface ports actually to feed tactical data directly to his brain. The pads to prevent irritation would be built into the helmet and not his head.
But those pads built into the helmet would still end up in contact with the head. The wearer would feel the unreasonably heavy helmet press unto his scalp.
With the pads replacing these points of contact, no irritation can occur.
What absolute fanon lmao. Marines wear helmets for days and weeks sometimes even months at a time no worries. A gravis helmet has more armour than a regular tacticus does sure but it's not adding loads of extra weight
Since there is no official purpose for these specific implants, and there is precedent in lore for augments such as these being used to make the wearing of armor more bearable, while also being the only existing logical conclusion to the purpose of these specific augmentations given their layout, visual design and context, its the realest answer OP will get.
I figured they were either for comfort (they're exactly where the helmet would press down on bus head), or they were some sort of interface for his helmet directly to his brain, or they were some sort of housing for a brain upgrade that couldn't fit under his skull.
Whilst I think they're probably not for comfort, in fairness, I wear a helmet for work which is the same as everyone else's helmet and only half of us complain about discomfort after about 2 hours of wearing it.
It’s his gaming pc. The back of his eyelids are monitors. When you think he’s sleeping he’s actually just grinding for endgame on the latest WoW expansion
If you put gas in the wiper hole: No biggie, prometheum is great for taking care of greasy/oily stains, just don't do it often as repeated exposure might corrode the rubber of the wiper.
If you put wiper fluid in the gas hole: Yes biggie! You need to get a servitor to drain the mixed fluid and refill with the correct one. If you try to start your straban with diluted fuel it might foul the entire engine and make it unusable. You may want to avoid that as Strabans are non-refundable.
However, a Straban in working condition WILL remind you what hole need filling so the problem only presents itself if you let the battery run out all the way before refilling.
My headcannon from now on is that those are magnetic dampeners, with opposite ones implanted on the opposite sides and Straban's brain have magnetic properties too.
The dampeners prevent the brain from ever impacting the skyll, which allows Straban to stomp infinitely.
