Suppressing Capsule

Overview

Suppressing Capsule is the upgraded version of Jamming Capsule, with stronger disruption effects and a longer disruption duration. It is used as a throwable combat item by Icarus and is associated with the Jammer Tower, which also makes use of the same general mechanic.

When fully upgraded, its catalog stat lists a 120% speed reduction. In practice, this functions as an almost complete slowdown rather than a literal movement boost in reverse; enemy units are reduced to the point that they can barely move for the duration of the effect. This makes it a strong crowd-control tool for stopping advancing enemies and buying time during defensive engagements.

Because its value comes from temporary immobilization rather than direct damage, Suppressing Capsule is most effective when used to delay enemies while turrets, towers, or other defenses finish them off. The effect is especially useful against groups that are already committed to an approach path, since the reduced movement gives your defenses more time to fire. For further details on its related systems, see Jammer Tower and Icarus's throwing slots.
