System Shock 2 Hints

Endurance

  • Higher endurance increases your hit points (5 HP per END at normal difficulty) and decreases the amount of damage done by radiation and toxins. The manual claims that END affects the damage from psi burnout, but my experience shows that higher PSI statistics reduce burnout instead.  The statistic is not specifically required for anything to the best of my knowledge, so you may just want to increase it if you find yourself dying frequently.
