Acquisition

• Can be acquired by attaining the rank of Maxim under the Arbiters of Hexis, or the rank of Flawless under New Loka, and spending 25,000 Standing 25,000 to purchase.

Notes

• Assimilate reduces speed to a slow walk and disables all Maneuvers requiring the use of the jump or crouch buttons.
• Players can perform the revive action, melee attacks, and interact with objects (hacking terminals, power cells, etc.) during Assimilate.
• Players can still regain lost Energy with the relevant Syndicate Weapon Augments -specifically Entropy and Blight- and Energy Orbs; however, all other forms of Energy gain are disabled and Energy Leech/Parasitic Eximus units can still drain energy.
  • The exception being  Sharpshooter which still works as long as headshot kills occur.
  • Nyx Prime can replenish energy even while Absorb is active by moving near an Orokin Death Orb.
• Self-stagger from explosive weapons like the  Lenz or  Ogris will not apply when this augment is active.

Tips

•  Rift Strike can be used to reach distant enemies and gain ground, though players will need to perform Charged Attacks.
•  Electromagnetic Shielding can be used to absorb some of the damage that nearby allies receive while also retaining a fast movement speed by using Final Harbinger's Dark Light combo.
• Some melee weapons and combos may be used to bypass the movement penalty, such as the Nikana's  Blind Justice Guiding Light combo.
• Using  Dispatch Overdrive gives you more movement speed during Assimilate.
• Switching to the Operator can allow the player to use Void Dash and get to objectives quicker while still keeping Assimilate active on Nyx.
• While equipping  Assimilate, casting  Absorb during Aim Glide will not stop or slow down the maneuver until Nyx touches the ground.

Trivia

• After its introduction and upon request from the Community, Assimilate was updated to allow for teammates to fire at and charge up  Absorb in Update 19.13 (2017-03-09).
  • This update was later undone with Hotfix 20.2.3 (2017-04-19) upon feedbacks that it drains too much energy.
