Items improve Cordy's stats or grant some special effect. They can be found in chests,dropped by defeated leaders or bought from vending machines. Most items grant a passive effect, but some must be activated manually.

There is an Item Log in the upgrades menu (accessed from the main menu) that shows all of the items you have grabbed and their effects.

Active Items (On-Use)[]

These items go into the E-slot; you can only carry one at a time. Picking up a new active item will leave the previously equipped item on the ground.

Passive Items[]

These items grant you new abilities and modify your character's stats once you have picked them up. There is no limit to how many you can collect.

Merit Items[]

Merit items are passive items with an associated challenge. The item starts granting its bonus once the challenge has been completed, and the number of kills towards the bonus will be indicated in the menu (C) when you scroll over the item icon with your mouse.

Fragile Items[]

There are several items described as "fragile". These grant a significant bonus, but are destroyed after Cordy takes a certain amount of damage while carrying them.
