The Armory holds information on all the equipment employed by Characters and enemies in Horizon: out of the ashes. These items are divided into three main categories, Gear, Devices and Augs.
Gear represents equipment that a Character can weild or wear, such as weapons and armor. The strengths of Gear are the offensive and defensive potential it can offer, along with its simplicity. Gear can be bought, used, upgraded or discarded at will, so long as the Character meets the basic requirements to use it.
Devices are items that Characters may carry, deploy or use remotely, such as radios, hologram projectors or drones, respectively. Devices generally focus on providing special utility over combat strength, but remain simple to acquire, use, discard or exchange for new options when desired.
Augs are special IRIS-based formations within the body that store considerable metabolic energy over time, to be released later as a power source for various potent effects. In contrast to Gear and Devices, Augs are expensive and make considerable demands on the Character's Stamina when used, but offer super-human capabilities in exchange. As part of the Character's own body, Augs cannot easily be stripped away, offering a fighting chance, even in the most desperate of circumstances.
