A Law Enforcer is a chip that prevents PVP action. It cen be freely removed and reinstalled without the use of an implant tool. Once the players Static Rank is above 30 however removal is permanent.
History
The Law Enforce whas developed by Biotech as part of the MC5. The Law Enforcer efectively blocks the subject from carying out agressive action. How the discrimination, that allows for the killing of mutants and animals, is archived however is unknown. The Law Enforcer is rutinely installed on all runners who undergo treatment at the MC5 facility including those for whom the proces fails. It is illegal under Neocron law to remove the LE. It is however a simple procedure that is often caryed out by experienced runners, and although refusing to rewoke the law against LE removal cityadmin rarely enforces it as the extras manpower that non Law Enforced runners bring to the war is mutch needed in order to uphold the safety of neocron.
Gameplay
LE Removal
Removing you LE is very simple albeit rather time consuming. Simply drag the LE from its implant slot into your inventory. A construction process will automaticly begin and you need only wait for it to finish. Beware however that this may take as long as 10 minutes and untill it is done you will be unable to use your processor window and your movement speed will be severely hampered.
Pro's and Con's of being UnLEed
Removing your LE is ofcourse not without danger (especially for low level runners) but it is not without reward either. Once your LE is out you will gain the ability to join clans aswell as compete with other players in PVP. Aswell as this you will also now have a 4th brain implant slot that if used wisely can bring mutch power to your character. However once your LE is out you are nolonger safe from other players. You cannot chose when or where to pvp and the only areas within wich your safety will be guaranteed are the city safezones. Friendly fire in neocron is fully unlocked so even an a player of an allied faction may atack you if you are un LEd.
Joining a Clan
Joining a clan will give you some degree of safety but it can also make you a prime target depending on curent politics. Joining a clan should always be done with some consideration. If you are not keen on constantly fighting for your life it may be better to stay clanless as clanless characters are often ignored during the constant civil wars within the ranks of the 2 alliances. Howeever you may be more of an exposed target to enemy faction members without the backing of a good clan.
