Psychosis (Cerebral Mod)

Psychosis is a resource consumed by the player when using telekinetic weapons. Most telekinetic weapons while in use drain psychosis at a rate of 1 per second, while those that don't return to the player on use (like boulders) drain at 3 per second. A visual warning on the meter and a custom sound is played once psychosis goes below 0. Once psychosis hits -2 (the numbers won't show below 0), the player gains the Psyched Out debuff. Telekinetic weapons can still be used during this state, but drains health at a rate of 20 (15 with Desert Wanderer set bonus) per second, which can lead to death, triggering one of five unique death messages. There is an upside of gaining 20% increased telekinetic crit chance during this state.

Psychosis is shown by a meter and number display below the player when Psychosis isn't full. Players start with 10 max psychosis and can be permanently increased by 1 with different Lotus Petals throughout game progression. The player must be at the max amount of psychosis increases from previous tiers of Lotus Petals before the next tier can be used. Tainted Lotus Petal or Sanguine Lotus Petal can increase max psychosis up to 15. Ancient Lotus Petal up to 20, Hallowed Lotus Petal up to 25, and Solar Lotus Petal up to 30.

Restoring Psychosis

Psychosis can be restored by using psychosis potions. However, using them will cause the user to take damage equal to the amount of Psychosis recovered. Psychosis regens after a second of not using telekinetic weapons. Psychosis regenerates by 3 per second (1 every 20 frames), relative to base max psychosis. For example, 20 max psychosis, with no additional regeneration increase, would be a rate of 6 psychosis regenerated per second. The regeneration rate can be increased with armor and accessories.
