As a seasoned traveler and thief, I’ve come across my fair share of Sync Disks, each one promising a different kind of trouble. The first one that catches my eye is the “Knockout Brand Ambassador” disk. Now, this one’s got a twist! Knocked out, no medical bills, and a nice little payday? Sounds like a day at the office for me! But remember, don’t try this at home kids, I’m a professional!
Sync Disks are your ticket to improvement in Shadows of Doubt, but they can be quite the complex system to wrap your head around. Here we’ll be breaking down which five sync disks are the best, and then discussing all sync disks in Shadows of Doubt.
Best Sync Disks in Shadows of Doubt
18 Sync Disks are featured in Shadows of Doubt, though not all may prove beneficial to install due to their intricate nature. As stated in our review of the game, Sync Disks constitute a complex system where each disk generally offers two distinct paths upon installation for the first time.
In the realm of Sync Disks, some offer minor adjustments like raising or lowering your player’s height, while others cause you to perish whenever you consume anything not from ‘Kola’ brand. However, there are those that are incredibly potent and others that simply add a fun twist. Therefore, when embarking on your journey, it is essential to seek out the ones that will significantly enhance or bring enjoyment to your experience.
Beauty Sync Disk
The Beauty Sync Disk is a beneficial item that enhances your progress, no matter which route you choose. The trait of ‘Beauty’ has two different routes: ‘Allure’ and ‘Charm’. In this scenario, ‘Allure’ is more potent; often, you won’t need to spend money on information, and the savings from a 55% discount can easily cover any expenses.
| Effect & Upgrades | Allure | Charm |
|---|---|---|
| Base Effect | Gain a 10% discount on any goods purchased from Citizens. | Citizens are 10% more likely to give you information (name, info on other Citizens) for free. |
| Upgrade 1 | Increases discount to 20%. | Increases chance to 20%. |
| Upgrade 2 | Increases discount to 35%. | Increases chance to 35%. |
| Upgrade 3 | Increases discount to 55%. | Increases chance to 55%. |
Community Sync Disk
In simpler terms, a community can be likened to a two-sided tool where one side has a more significant advantage than the other. While extra storage space is a desirable improvement, there are other tools that offer this feature. However, in this situation, the less apparent side of the community is more valuable to you over the long term. So, I recommend being thoughtful in your interactions within the community.
| Effect & Upgrades | Heavy Lifter | Care in the Community |
|---|---|---|
| Base Effect | Increases inventory space by 1. | Increases job payout by 10%. |
| Upgrade 1 | Further increases inventory space by 1. | Further increases job payout by 10%. |
Kaizen V-Love Plus Sync Disk
The Kaizen V-Love Plus Sync Disk stands out as the initial model with some side effects, yet its advantages significantly surpass the disadvantages. This Sync Disk is indispensable for challenging assignments, especially those where your target’s description is vague. Both options are incredibly valuable, making a decision might still be tough. Personally, I find Physiological Perception to be more potent of the two.
| Effect & Upgrades | Physiological Perception | Socioeconomic Perception | Side Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Base Effect | Learn a Citizen’s height from a photo. | Learn a citizen’s salary from a photo. | Citizens are 25% less likely to give you free information. |
| Upgrade 1 | Learn a Citizen’s age from a photo. | Learn a citizen’s relationship status from a face to face meeting. | |
| Upgrade 2 | Learn a Citizen’s shoe size from a photo. | Learn a citizen’s current held wealth from a face to face meeting. | |
| Upgrade 3 | Removes side effect. | Removes side effect. |
Tenacity Sync Disk
The Tenacity Sync Disk is a purely combat focused Sync Disk, and the upgrades from this one are super important for long runs, because unless you’re supremely sneaky when you’re breaking and entering solving murders, you will eventually get into a scrap or two. All three of these paths are strong, but I suggest taking the ‘Reflexes’ path.
| Effect & Upgrades | Clout | Brawn | Reflexes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Base Effect | Increases fist damage by 20%. | Increases throwing power by 20%. | The first attack landed on you is ignored. |
| Upgrade 1 | You can no longer get the ‘Bleeding’ debuff. | Increases reach by 10%. | Taking damage grants you the ‘Focused’ buff. |
| Upgrade 2 | Further increases fist damage by 10%. | Increases throwing power by 10%. | You can no longer receive the ‘Bruised’ or ‘Broken Leg’ debuffs. |
| Upgrade 3 | Increases threat of raising fists by 100%. (Citizens more likely to flee.) | Using a held object as cover can reduce bullet damage by 90%. | Take 20% less damage from all damage types. |
Trespasser Sync Disk
In summary here, I’d like to clarify that the intruder or trespasser is the last option I’m presenting, and honestly, it’s the one I can’t offer any advice on due to its incredibly potent potential upgrades. Given that you’ll be frequently locking things in Shadows of Doubt, it’s essential to pick carefully. The choice is all yours.
| Effect & Upgrades | Lockpicker | Resourceful | Invisible |
|---|---|---|---|
| Base Effect | Lockpicking is 50% faster. | You now use half as many lockpicks when lockpicking. | The lockpicking stance is no longer seen as an illegal action. |
All Sync Disks in Shadows of Doubt
In this post, we will explore and explain the functions of the final 13 Sync Disks available in Shadows of Doubt. We’ll discuss their unique features, as well as their upgrade options. Although these disks didn’t make it to our top five list, they are still worthy of your attention… with one exception that may not be worth your time.
Ambassador Sync Disk
The Sync Disk offers two methods for generating income – passively or actively. To maximize profits, consider mastering Competitor Data Mining and regularly installing this software on each machine labeled as a ‘Cruncher’ that you encounter.
| Effect & Upgrades | Case Flow | Competitor Data Mining |
|---|---|---|
| Base Effect | Passive Income of 10 Crows every 2 hours. | Earn 50 Crows by installing data mining software on any Number Cruncher. |
| 1st Upgrade | Increases passive income by 5 Crows. | Earn 100 Crows for installing data mining software on the Number Cruncher of any business owner. |
| 2nd Upgrade | Increases passive income by 5 Crows. | Earn 60 Crows for installing software on regular Number Crunchers, and 120 Crows for installing software on business owner Number Crunchers. |
| 3rd Upgrade | Increases passive income by 5 Crows. | Earn 70 Crows for installing software on regular Number Crunchers, and 140 Crows for installing software on business owner Number Crunchers. |
Cartographer Sync Disk
The Sync Disk is incredibly straightforward; it rewards you with Crows each time you uncover a new location or traverse vents. Instead, I’d recommend using the term Urban Explorer, since it’s more convenient and every apartment you visit can be considered an undiscovered area.
| Effect & Upgrades | Urbex Cartographer | Crawlspace Engineer |
|---|---|---|
| Base Effect | Earn 5 Crows every time you enter an unexplored area. | Earn 10 Crows every time you enter unexplored vents. |
Constitution Sync Disk
Constitution is a bit of a no brainer. Whilst no longer being able to get three negative status effects sounds great, getting rid of them normally is very easy. And compared to getting three whole inventory slots in exchange, it’s simply not worth doing.
| Effect & Upgrades | Chemistry | Cardiovascular |
|---|---|---|
| Base Effect | You no longer take the Cold debuff. | Increase inventory space by 1 slot. |
| 1st Upgrade | You no longer take the Smelly debuff. | Increase inventory space by 1 slot. |
| 2nd Upgrade | You no longer take the Tired debuff. | Increase inventory space by 1 slot. |
Frame Sync Disk
The Sync Disk labeled “Frame” is actually quite amusing and worth spending points on when you reach the maximum in each route. I suggest you take the time to max one of them, you’ll understand why once you do. Neither tree offers any advantage at all, but still, give it a try.
| Effect & Upgrades | Statuesque | Compact |
|---|---|---|
| Base Effect | Become 15% taller. | Become 15% shorter. |
| 1st Upgrade | Become 15% taller. | Become 15% shorter. |
| 2nd Upgrade | Become 15% taller. | Become 15% shorter. |
Interceptor Sync Disk
The Interceptor is another Dispatch related to the community, similar to a Community Newsletter. Unlike the Safecracker, it provides updates more regularly.
| Effect & Upgrades | Mailing List | Safecracker |
|---|---|---|
| Base Effect | Earn 10 Crows every time you discover the name AND address of any citizen. | Earn 25 Crows every time you discover a citizens passcode. |
Model Citizen Sync Disk
Absolutely, this option might seem unusual, but it’s a method for amassing Crows. To be honest, I’m finding it challenging to choose between the two suggestions, so you should opt for the one that aligns better with your gaming style. For instance, I don’t frequently read books, but I do enjoy consuming Yakisoba Pan quite a bit.
| Effect & Upgrades | Street Cleaner | Bookworm |
|---|---|---|
| Base Effect | Earn 2 Crows every time you put trash in a trashcan or dumpster. | Earn 6 Crows every time to read a unique book. |
| 1st Upgrade | Earn 3 Crows every time you put trash in a trashcan or dumpster. | Earn 16 Crows every time you read a unique book. |
| 2nd Upgrade | Earn 4 Crows every time you put trash in a trashcan or dumpster. | Earn 150 Crows when you read every book in a single series. |
| 3rd Upgrade | Earn 6 Crows every time you read a unique book. | Earn 2 Crows every time you put trash in a trashcan or dumpster. |
Physique Sync Disk
From personal experience, if I often find myself on the receiving end of tough challenges, then Vitality seems like the right pick for me. On the flip side, since I’m typically the one dishing out the challenges, Fortitude feels more fitting for my circumstances.
| Effect & Upgrades | Vitality | Fortitude |
|---|---|---|
| Base Effect | Increases max health by 20%. | Increase inventory space by 1 slot. |
| 1st Upgrade | Increases health regen by 10%. | Increase inventory space by 1 slot. |
Spartan Insurance Sync Disk
This is the ‘Insurance Fraud’ Sync Disk. Gold Medical Cover is, handy if you’re getting beaten up a lot. You can get the same effect AND the insurance fraud thing from Gold Accident cover, but only from self-imposed injury. Gold Legal Cover can come in handy from time to time, but I’d say just don’t get caught.
| Effect & Upgrades | Gold Medical Cover | Gold Legal Cover | Gold Accident Cover |
|---|---|---|---|
| Base Effect | Medical costs in hospital now cost half as much. | Lose no stolen items worth less than 500 Crows when knocked out. | No medical costs from self-imposed injury, and earn 100 Crows for your troubles. (Once a day.) |
| 1st Upgrade | Medical costs are now free. | Lose no stolen items worth less than 1000 Crows. | Increased injury payout. |
| 2nd Upgrade | Wake up in your own bed, if owned, instead of in hospital. | Lose no stolen items worth less than 10,000 Crows. | Increased injury payout. |
Starch Brand Ambassador Sync Disk
Another Crow earner, but a more annoying one. If you must take this disk, I’d suggest Put Some Life Into It, as it’s a higher and guaranteed payout.
| Effect & Upgrades | Spread the Word | Put Some Life Into It |
|---|---|---|
| Base Effect | Allows you to promote Kola products when speaking to Citizens. Earn 2 Crows if they respond positively. | Allows you to give Citizens Kola products for 6 Crows. |
| 1st Upgrade | Earn 3 Crows if Citizens respond postively. | Earn 8 Crows when giving product. |
| 2nd Upgrade | Earn 4 Crows if Citizens respond positively. | Earn 10 Crows when giving product. |
Sugar Daddy Sync Disk
Under no circumstances should you install this Sync Disk. It will make your life hell, for quite some time. I guess if you have 3 Sync Disk Upgrade Vials to spare, this is technically a way to make 1000 Crows quickly, but otherwise, don’t bother.
| Effect & Upgrades | Down Payment | Side Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Base Effect | Receive 5,000 Crows for installing. Uninstalling this Sync Disk costs 6,000 Crows. Consuming any Kola brand product reduces the uninstallation cost by 6 Crows. Consuming any non-Kola brand products increases the removal cost by 1 Crow. | Consuming ANY non-Kola brand products causes blurred vision and health damage. |
| 1st Upgrade | Reduces the uninstallation cost by 1,000 Crows. | |
| 2nd Upgrade | Reduces the uninstallation cost by 1,000 Crows. | |
| 3rd Upgrade | Reduces the uninstallation cost by 1,000 Crows. |
Vigor Sync Disk
This is a bit of a no brainer too. Power sounds great on paper, but barging doors down really doesn’t take much effort. Being completely resistant to fall damage however is very much an upgrade.
| Effect & Upgrades | Power | Stability |
|---|---|---|
| Base Effect | Barging doors down only takes one attempt. | Completely immune to fall damage. |
