This implant can be upgraded through several levels. Higher levels permit the use of more powerful psycasts. The psychic amplifier can be self-installed by one person with no chance of failure. The user presses the unit into their skull, where it inserts its neural tendrils and binds itself to the bone. Removing it requires a surgeon.Imperial laws restrict the use of the psychic amplifier to specific royal titles. Illegal use of the amplifier runs the risk of having your psychic signature detected and causing diplomatic consequences.

The '''Psylink neuroformer''' gives a pawn that's been implanted with it a [[Psycast]] level.
 
  
== Acquisition ==
 
By gaining [[Titles|Honor]] with the [[Empire]] faction, one may call a [[Empire#Bestower|Bestower]] to the colony to provide a Psylink to a pawn after it ranks up in titles. Alternatively, you may steal the Psylink neuroformer themselves from the Bestower, making your colony an enemy of the Empire.
 
  
Psylink neuroformers can also be found as occasional [[quest]] rewards. A new [[quest]] should appear roughly every 40 days, if no psylink levels have been gained<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/RimWorld/comments/i8im9i/has_anyone_been_offered_a_psylink_neuroformer/g1cadf2/</ref>. They can not be acquired through [[trade]] (except trade quests) or surgery as they could in past versions.

The '''Psychic Amplifier''' gives a pawn that's been implanted with it a [[Psycast]] level.  
  
== Summary ==
+
If the pawn using it doesn't have the required [[Titles|title]] for the level of psycast you're attempting to promote them to, it can anger the [[Empire]], however if you wish to do this regardless you still can, or if you want to try to have psycasts without angering the empire you can use the [[Psychic silencer]] in an attempt to go around the illegal act.
When used, a psylink neuroformer gives 1 level of [[psycast|psylink]] to the pawn. This turns a pawn into a psycaster if they weren't already. This increases the neural heat capacity, neural heat regeneration rate, and the level of psycasts available. Upon gaining a new level of psylink, a random [[psycast]] will be granted.
 
  
=== Installation ===

== Obtaining ==
{{Stub|section=1|reason=See other bionics}}
 
  
==Analysis==
+
A few can be obtained by promoting your pawns, and afterwards it can be obtained by trading.
The empire only gives psylink levels to the level "owed" - e.g. if you already have a level 2 psylink, becoming an Acolyte will not increase psylink any further. If you plan on raising a pawn up the royal ranks, you may want to use any spare neuroformers on a different pawn.
 
  
The best pawns to give psycasting powers are those with [[psychic sensitivity]] boosts, and/or those with [[trigger-happy]] (which lowers psycast warmup time). If a pawn has the Natural [[meditation focus]], they can use the [[anima tree]] in conjunction with neuroformers with no penalty. Because gathering many neuroformers can take a long time, you may want to combine the anima tree with neuroformers to raise psylink faster.
+
For those who intend to live as rebels you may capture nobles and extract their psychic amplifiers.
  
== Version history ==

{{nav/body_parts}}
* [[Royalty DLC]] Release - Added as '''Psychic amplifier'''. Note that this is what the Neuroformer is called in the game files.
 
* [[Version/1.1.2647|1.1.2647]] - Renamed from '''Psychic amplifier''' to '''Psylink neuroformer''', lore changed, and is no longer the sole method of obtaining psycasts.
 
* [[Version/1.1.2654|1.1.2654]] - Remove psylink neuroformer from traders (but most still buy it). Neuroformer market value increased from 1200 to 2600.
 
* [[Version/1.2.2753|1.2.2753]] - Fix: Psylink neuroformers that are in a storage area do not appear on a resource readout.
