Mining loot suggestions

Suggestions
1

Ruko removed most of the loot from mining chests due to the loot telling you to grief, so this thread shall fill in the hole of ruko’s lack of creatively,
I made this thread for the purpose to add more loot and items, Not for you to whine about the nerf
@Ruko Also, don’t derail my thread like you did last time like a traitor with sabotage objectives sabotaging the railway system causing the tram to fall over.\

Here are some Guidelines for loot (Unofficial)
The loot HAS to be somewhat helpful with mining, at least something better than a stock KPA
No wizard shit and stuff like that.
Moar creative downsides, like the katana from TG that lashes out if you don’t attack anything.
tele crystal items that massively buff certain mining and megafauna loot

Hook attachment, it goes on your PKA and you use the PKA inhand to switch between normal firing mode and the hook which teleports you to where you fire it at.

Book of Babble (not the book of Babel)

Lets you (and anyone you hit over the head with it) to speak gibberish at the cost of a bit of brain damage.

It won’t exactly help with mining, but neither does the book of Babel.

Sepia Folding Chair

A “magical” chair made by a bored xenobiologist who wanted to get his tan on. It will act as a stasis bed, stopping bleeding and will be mostly immune to rad storms. The downside is that it slowly injects you with spray tan.

I am not sure about the balance on this one.

Mining Hardsuit Upgrade disks.
the mining hardsuit you can buy from the vendor with points can now hold 2 “disks”

Disks you can buy with points:

  • higher speed for lower armour
  • Higher damage for lower speed and armour
  • higher armour in return for speed

Disks you can get from killing megafauna/necro chests.

    (Blood Shield)

  • a low tier “blood shield”, which is just a worse version of the shielded Nukie hardsuits shield.

     (Unholy Protection)

  • a disk that gives a 25% chance of deflecting damage taken. if 2 are used it increases it to 40%

      (Corrupted Matter)

  • A disk that grants Low tier passive healing. it takes 2 slots but heals a bit more than the stabilized Purple.

        (Gluttons Teeth)

  • A disk that increases your damage and speed for 30 seconds when you kill fauna or players.

       (Hell Blood)

  • a “scent” disk that makes fauna non-aggressive to you as long as you don’t attack them

when you kill a megafauna, it will now drop a "(insert fauna here) fragment.
you can

A.

revive the fauna as a stronger version of itself by using a stabilizer liquid(the same as the one you can buy from the vendor). if you manage to kill this version, you will be rewarded with a new Special boss item. Here are some ideas for them:
//
when killing a Revived bubblegum you could receive “bubbles Fury” which would switch out your current arm with an arm that looks like Bubblegums. you cannot hold anything in this arm, but it does more damage when punching and allows you to do Bloodcrawl with an around 30-sec timer. if the arm is cut off it will kill the user
//
when killing a revived Legion your head will be replaced with a skull instead. you can now summon the small head demons and make them attack by clicking at the target. the new head has less health, and you cant use helmets anymore.
//
These revived megafauna will have 2x the health (and maybe player controlled?) if so they will die if the miner dies, to stop them from going to the station.

B.

if you use a knife on the fragment, you can extract the (insert megafauna name) core. the core can be placed inside the experimenter and if the right “experiment” is done on it, 1-5k research points will be given to the station and an ability DIsk will be ejected. they will also go into the Mining suit but will have their own slot. only one ability disk can be used per suit, and cant be taken out once inserted, unlike the suit disks.

Ability Disks:
Levitation ( when activated, will let you Hover. you cant fight while hovering, but you move a bit faster.

Rage ( when activated, you will deal x times more damage for 20-30 seconds. when the period ends, you lose all your stamina and fall into a stam crit.

Mining frenzy ( the speed of different mining tools goes up for a few seconds

etc. etc.
please come with any ideas for balancing or more disks that could be cool. I tried focusing everything towards helping on lavaland, as well as being of use to traitors and such.
there could also be disks and upgrades you could buy with tc, like one extra disk slot, or damage/armour disks without any negative effects.
would this be too op?
