Omni Shields (Inventory Powerups)

What is Omni Shields?

Omni Shields is a Doom 2 mod that introduces consumable, temporary-invulnerability powerups. These powerups allow you to survive nukes, use rocket launchers up close, and play aggressively in combat situations where you would normally get gunned down. Take more risks and have more fun with insurance!

What is it for?

Omni Shields is designed to enhance your Doom 2 experience by providing you with powerful, on-demand shields that can be used strategically to survive intense combat situations. Whether you're playing solo or with mods, Omni Shields adds a layer of excitement and strategy to your gameplay.

How to Use Omni Shields Ingame

Omni Shields are consumable, activatable inventory items. Make sure you have set up controls for "Next/Previous Inventory Item" and "Activate Inventory Item" in the game options. Once ingame and you have acquired an Omni Shield, cycle to it in the inventory and activate it whenever you want.

• Blue Micro Shields (5 second duration): A brief protection from all harm. Use this to land 2-3 rockets at point-blank range, protect yourself from a nuke blast, avoid immediate monster damage, or perform a rocket jump safely. You can hold a maximum of 99 units of these.

• Yellow Room Shields (30 second duration): Intended for clearing single big rooms with aggressive, reckless tactics that would normally get you killed. You can do all the good stuff as with the Blue Micro Shields, but with 6 times the duration. In addition to invulnerability, you also get faster running speed and higher jump too! You can hold a maximum of 10 units of these.

• Red Drive Shields (3 minute duration): MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE. The ultimate superpowered rampage enabler. 3 minutes of nonstop invulnerability, double rate of fire for weapons, speed boost, and jump boost for all your devastation needs! You can hold only 3 of these and they're hard to come by. Use them wisely, 3 minutes of time is a lot shorter than you can imagine.

Benefits of Omni Shields
