-This article is a stub.+**Jolt** is a [[:daemons:|daemon]] which causes [[:KO|knocked-out]] [[:guards:]] to recover 1 KO damage, unless they are [[:KO#pinning|pinned]]. In addition to human guards, Jolt also affects [[:rebooting]] [[:guards:#drones]]. 
 + 
 +Jolt is found in the [[:Contingency Plan]] DLC. 
 + 
 +===== Strategy ===== 
 + 
 +Jolt is a relatively weak daemon; it only affects guards who are knocked out but not [[:KO#pinning|pinned]]. Regardless of Jolt, it is usually good to avoid knocking out guards where possible, and if you do knock them out then it is good to [[:KO#pinning|pin]] them. So, Jolt typically does nothing. If you have knocked out any guards, just try to pin them before triggering Jolt. 
 + 
 +Jolt can occasionally be beneficial for the player, because of the bonus from [[:augments:Pheromone Filter]]. Jolt can also allow you to hack a drone again sooner. 
 + 
 +===== Interaction with the Overclocked Neural DART ===== 
 + 
 +If Jolt is triggered when shooting a guard with [[:weapons:Overclocked Neural DART]], then depending on the guard's [[:KO#KO resistance]], Jolt can cause him to wake up immediately:

 +> Clip from [[twitch>SuperStorm_8]]. 
 + 
 +If the agent who fired the Overclocked Neural DART is seen by a guard who wakes up because of Jolt, then that guard shoots the agent //immediately//. This is because the Overclocked Neural DART triggers the daemon //before// the game checks whether any guards on [[:guard behaviour#overwatch]] should shoot the agent who attacked.
