Jump Boots provide a powerful burst of energy that enables much higher and longer jumps. Built in power source can provide only about 1/3 of a second worth of boost, but this is more than enough. It takes 1-2 seconds for the system to get online and ready for the next jump. Jump Boots can be used to access areas that are out of reach, or even in combat.
Usage: To use Jump Boot system in the game, hit the key binded with "Use_Jetpack" ("J" by default, you may want to change it). Since the Jump Boots don't have enough energy to lift you off the ground on their own, you will need to jump first, and then hit "J" while in mid-air. Best results are achieved when you activate the Boots at the peak of the jump.
Unlimited duration (every 1-2 seconds).
Warning: Be careful with high jumps - landings could very well hurt you. Try hitting "J" again moment before you hit the ground, this will slow you down and provide a soft landing.
This defense measure masks your scent with neutral pheromones, rendering you virtually invisible to Warrior Bugs. It also increases your overall speed and adrenaline levels with skin penetrating stimulans, giving you a chance to escape from a particulary grim situation.
Usage: Use the key binded with the "Use_Steroids" ("R" by default). Once you activated the Spray, it lasts for about a half of minute until the canister is empty. You cannot turn it off or save it for later use, so use it wisely and only when really needed.
Warning: Pheromone Spray is not 100% efficient. It's effectiveness also reduces with the distance, and it depends on the current action of the enemy. When close or extremely volatile, Warriors probably won't be fooled by the Pheromone Spray. Hoppers have more profined sensors and Tankers an excellent eyesight, thus imune to pheromone masking.
Enables you to see "white-hot"; enhances the surrounding brightness level and makes the enemies visible even in complete darkness. Uses heat radiation and flair technology.
Usage: Use the key binded with "Use_Infrared" ("N" by default). Unlimited duration.

Usage: Use the key binded with "Use_MedKit" ("M" by default). Full Kit starts at 200%, gradually going down to 0% as you use it.

Dukematch only item: Blackout Device
This experimental device interferes with the gamma waves activity of the human brain, causing blackout of sight, ringing noise in ears and other problems when the person looks in the general direction of the device. Intended for heavy duty boot camp exercises, but abandoned due to safety precautions.
Usage: Duck, and hit space. You have 3 seconds before the device activates, afterwards avoid eye contact or it will affect you as well. Once activated, Blackout Device cannot be picked up. The only way to get rid of it is to destroy it. :-) It's weaker on larger distances.
Multiplayer: Yes, this is only good for multiplayer. It will take some time to master the usage of this item, but once you do, it will give you huge advantage. If you can see your enemies, but they can't see you, well, you obviously have the upper hand. ;-) Works great in Capture the Flag.
You are probably familiar with this item from the original Duke :-). It works just as same here. Found only in Dukematch and Capture the Flag maps.
Dukematch only item: Atomic Health
Boosts your health for 50%; all the way up to 300. Nice, but rare and hard to found...
