It would be really neat if this let you still get items after fighting someone to a draw (you wake up quickly, loot their body). Never going to argue that healing isn't very very useful, but cf. Kingly Favor (3 heals/day) or Slags Eater (healing and first aid effect every time you wipe slags poisoning or etheric from your system). Perhaps there's more to this skill than has been discovered?

Well, I'm thinking, maybe this skill can remove the energy of negative effects you may may already have and gained after losing a fight? Like, perhaps if you were to normally get Empty Heart after losing a fight, with this you won't?

So, this skill now removes some negative effects when it triggers, though I don't know the exact list. Only confirmed Coughing Fit so far to make sure it was working.

Edit: Looks like this doesn't remove cyberware related debuffs, like Cyber Sickness or Blurred Eyes. Possibly it runs on the same list as the Street Doc.

This is a neat update. It does not remove Slags Poisoning so it does seem to be slightly different than the Street Doc. I'll add a column to the Effects Testing page.

Removed:
Scalded (6)
Toxic Spores (8)
Spider Venom (18)
One of the Midgard Scientists's syringe effects (*got this the same turn as I was beaten up, did not end up with any turns of effect.)

Not removed:
Slags Poisoning (5)
Cast (3)
Sugar Rush (110)
