The Dementonite Screwdriver is a Tool in Barotrauma.

Description

The Dementonite Screwdriver is a one-handed tool which can be used as a Melee Weapon. Its an upgrade over the regular Screwdriver as it repairs 40% faster, inflicts more Lacerations, has increased attack speed, and additionaly inflicts Psychosis, which doesn't have much of a use other than messing with crewmates, but it no longer inflicts any Bleeding. Despite that it should still only be used as a last resort for smaller Creatures like Crawlers. Its main purpose is performing electrical repairs on installations. It is also used to rewire Connection Panels of any installations or electrical components.


It can only be acquired using console commands as the talent unlocking its crafting recipe and the crafting recipe itself have been removed.

Function

The Dementonite Screwdriver is held with one hand. As with all weapons and tools, using it is done by holding the Right Mouse Right-click to take aim, then by Left Mouse Left-clicking to shoot/use.

  • It can be used to repair electrical installations by pressing the "Use" keybind (E by default) on an installation to open the repair GUI and starting the repairs.
    • Attempting a repair while not having the required Electrical Engineering skill takes a lot longer and presents a risk of failure, which interrupts the repair and inflicts Burn and Stun.
  • It can also be used to rewire Connection Panels of any installations or electrical components inside the repair GUI.
    • Attempting a rewiring while not having the required Electrical Engineering skill presents a high risk of failure, which interrupts the rewiring and inflicts Burn and Stun.
  • Its one-handed, meaning it can be dual-wielded, essentially doubling the DPS, but it does not increase the repair speed.
  • It has a 5% chance to inflict 5 Psychosis on the user when used. Failing a repair or rewiring inflicts 10 Psychosis on the user.
  • The Dementonite Screwdriver gains 10% Repair Speed per quality level. (10% / 20% / 30%)
