*IMPORTANT!* Unfortunately I made a mistake in this video; the Shield Lattice blueprint upgrade does not increase from 20% to 50%, it instead increases to 25% as this is an additive stat, not multiplicative.This was an unfortunate oversight on my part, this makes the Shield Lattice far less desirable, I would advise prioritising X-Class Hazard protection in it's place due to these being mostly all-covering and multiplicative, and so their bonuses are worth more.
Yeah, the X-Class hazard protection boosting is crazy. Also, for ships, I like to supercharge the efficient launcher module and on MTs, the scanner module that reduces the recharge times. All of these on Survival/PD runs help reduce those difficulty settings off the max. lol. Thanks for the video!
If you do happen to figure out if boosting the Pulse Engine main module does impact its innate Pulse Drive Power stat, drop a dime. Amazing video btw. Liked & Subbed.
@@FellowSunBro You'll get a massive Maneuverability boost by dropping your Polo figurine on a supercharged slot. I just pushed a Solar Sailor on PS5 to 3528.2 doing this.
@@XainesWorld So, can you answer one question I Have that you may have answered in the video, but maybe I failed to hear you. for each thing (i.e. multi tool, ships, ... etc) which is best to put in the super charged slots? What I mean is, I have seen different people say that for instance its best to put A weapon itself, the shield itself or the movement thing itself on a super charged slot for ships and multitools. Put the craftable or obtainable things around these. I am very confused about all this. I am rather proficient in maths but I don't want to spend hours trying to get the optimum setup. There should be a simple answer to what to put on these slots based on the thing you are working with. Thanks for any answers you might give or point me towards.
Taking notes...... wait..... multiply by the adjacency along with the supercharged stat on one along with the original....... brain broken.... reset...
As of Waypoint, fuel efficiency and expedition power (to let you use fewer ships to get to 5 stars) are now the most useful stats for frigate expeditions. Duration barely matters at all because you only get 5 expeditions per day and they reroll at the same time.
After years of using the same ship and multi tool, it’s nice to now have a reason to have, and use different tools for different jobs. Nice, in-depth analysis as always Xaine.
I actually prioritized certain multitools to certain tasks for these reasons. Currently i have an expiration tool that has huge scan and mining boosts, and another for combat with damage boosts. Hoping to use this guide to optimize those boosts!
I supercharged the mining beam with three slots on one of my multi tools and it's almost all I use now. It kills things and mines incredibly fast. The only other thing I have on it's the scanner and terrain manipulator.
Thanks, Xaine! That’s some seriously in-depth homework you did there. I can’t wait to jump in and start experimenting with a little “applied science”. Cheers!
Great info, Xaine! This validated what I had figured out on the ship bonuses myself already, although I didn't know the exact math, and certainly didn't know the bit about the sublight amplifier, so huge thanks for that! And this was very useful for the exosuit stuff and the MTs. I've been configuring a "mining" tool vs my combat tools, so this has been fun! I do still have questions about the adjacency of hazard protection, I'll have to check your older videos, because I seem to remember you covering this before.
Hazard protection is a bit of a game for adjacency, almost all modules give a bonus to others, but half of them don't gain anything from being buffed. I did all my research on that back in January, so ill need to redo a bunch of it soon for specifics
Thanks. This verified a lot of what I was observing from my own experiments. Great summary of how the math works, and good recommendations on what to use and prioritize.
Thanks so much! My weapon damage just went from 13K to 19K! I knew I had too much core health. Didn't know about the cap. Recharge is under a second now. wow. Thanks for all the updates!
Thanks to that guide I managed to get more value from my techs and upgrades simply by rearranging stuff. A well presented video is way easier to understand. Thank you a video well done.
Thank you, Xaine. It might take me 27 times of relistening to specific parts, but This is the information All players will need when it comes to getting a Good ship/tool/suit all set up and rocking. TY, TY, TY!
Hey Xaine, thank you for these helpful tips and recommendations! I'll be looking forward to your insight and opinions for exocraft. On that note, I've been toying around with the exocraft slots myself - I'm really digging the ability to store technology, it's so helpful for messing with the traction upgrades to figure out what I actually want on each vehicle, great quality of life change. Anyway, I haven't looked too deeply into supercharging the exocraft cannons except on the minotaur, mostly because the engine upgrades don't seem to yield noticeable performance boosts, just fuel eco (I could be wrong). The Minotaur cannon can become powerful enough that I'm not sure the stun cannon and laser combo, unless desired for fun reasons, is worth supercharging. As for movement on other exocraft, I've gotten exceptional results from sticking the engine and 2 procedural upgrades in the charged slots, and putting the remaining desired upgrades around the engine or bridging the engine to the next closest charged procedural upgrade. Before I continue, I want to add that I did not find the boost upgrades to be nearly as useful when supercharged, but they remain useful to have installed for acceleration on unfavorable terrain. By excluding only Hi-Slide (for acceleration reasons) from my Nomad, I'm hitting mid-50's across oceans, and somewhere over 100 while airborne on low-atmosphere worlds, I can't tell exactly how fast because of how the game displays exocraft velocity not as true velocity, but speed in the direction the front of the exocraft is facing, and the vehicle tilting upwards probably more than 30°. Exocraft can now move fast enough to, in some cases sooner than others depending on your platform's processing power, outrun the speed of a planet's collision geometry being loaded. For me on PS4, this resulted once in falling to the center of a planet with no ocean, with my coordinates flip-flopping each time I passed the center. On another planet with an ocean, my Nomad fell through, hovered on the subterranean ocean, and loaded me into a cave with a flooded section as the only exit. So um... if you choose to share some of these nuances, please also tell people to use the exocraft's jump button, it should resurface them if they fall below the world geometry. Exocraft are kinda wild now, and I feel much more inclined to use them than I did before the update!
In my experiments, I found that putting the mining beam itself in a supercharged slot increases yield by 35%. Putting the optical drill in a supercharged slot also increases yield by 35%. Putting them both in adjacent supercharged slots increases yield by 75%. This makes a huge difference when farming runaway mould. My 32-ball mould farm now yields 37,191 mould instead of just 21,260.
I have no idea what I'm prioritizing because this game is superseding college level math classes. I guess that's the issues you have when you jump into a game that's 7 years old. All that being said I am having a lot of fun getting my Explorer on. For me this has been a VR masterpiece and exactly what I was looking for
Prioritize a multi-tool and a starship with a 2x2 grid of 4 supercharged slots, all right next to each other. Add neutron cannon w/ near-max S-class modules in the multi-tool’s supercharged slots, and add infra-knife with near-max X-Class modules in the starship’s supercharged slots. Check the subreddits named NMSGlyphExchange and NMSCoordinateExchange to locate the multi-tools and starships. Trust me, well worth it the effort. The damage is teh lulz.
Xaine, i have always thought i was intelligent until i listen to you, and then i feel completely stupid. Thanks for posting your incredibly valuable work. 👏🏻
Thank you for this video, it really helped me - I'm a new player and it's kind of overwhelming to try to do all of the math for ALL of my equipment, so you saved me a ton of time (especially with my new S class staff!)
thanks, major thing i learned here is boosting main module actually does something. In-game when you boost a main module like a gun, it doesn't show any stat increases so i assumed it did nothing. now i need to adjust all my stuff on my ships/multitool to try this out
crazy i did exactly as you recommend but long before your video came out :) I recommend having a spaceship explorer type and using all the spaceship supercharged for the hiperdrive a / b / s modules !
I just noticed for example fidling infra knife with different slots around a supercharged slot makes a huge difference. Also putting the main researched items in the supercharged slots makes a huge difference. And also putting them next to each other is a must.
I recommend prioritizing supercharged slots on starships as follows: 1. Infra-Knife Accelerator 2. Infra-Knife Accelerator 3. Infra-Knife Accelerator 4. Infra-Knife Accelerator Shields. Hulls. Pirates. Sentinels. A well-supercharged Infra-Knife Accelerator makes short work of them all.
@thedeekabides Vader's comment 'no disintegrations" comes to mind. Mine sits at 45k unshielded and 29k shielded. Caution required during pirate fights and asteroid mining as the npc ships LOVE flying infront of you.
This has mostly made me understand, that I don't understand adjacency bonus... I'll have to check your channel for that explenation, hope it's in there
At your given location I actually found the A class version of the weapon, and a marker or base called “Alien Gun”. I did however find the S class version at -40.06 / +145.31 at an outpost with a save beacon. Thanks!
I just started playing NMS. Liked and subbed, so much good info here! I had no idea that the supercharge slot would link! Look forward to learning more.
Awesome video and you really did you're homework, unfortunately maybe I shouldn't have watched this when I just woke up. Definitely need a window licker version this early in the morning.
You're probably aware of this, but supercharged slots are not static on ships of the exact same model. I found two identical fighter ships on the same island that, when upgraded, had a supercharged slot much different from the other.
As always, some deep in-depth guidage ( if thats a word ). Thanks Dude. Im sure i have all my stuff set up wrong so now I can go thru and move stuff about and make my saves more ........super ( u see what i did there ?) As for searching for multiple S class multi tool cabinets to find a desired super charged layout, well, ill leave that to the nut cases. I have a kiwi in mind for that. I think any i find will be the only one, since they are hard enough to find in the first place :)
I think this is important but my brain hurts, will have to come back and watch again I think. Thanks for the upload though, tis is something I need to understand but will have to go one by one when it counts. cheers
Very helpful, but I had figure it our mostly. What I prioritized mostly is depending on the superchargd slots layout. If for instance, I have 4 slots one next to another like this is the case for one of my sentinel ship. I will usually take a least 3 just for the weapon system and another one for ship pulse engine, or maneuovrability. Also I tested using the 4 supercharged for Infra knife main module and upgrade, and this is insane, I got like think over 93 000 peak damage... at that rate, you are melting ships in no time! But also, I like putting the pulse engine craftable upgrade, that give your ship manoeuvrability and the ability to slide like a pirate ship, it says... when boosted in supercharged, you ship will respond excessively quick to turn and just be really fun play with, but man this remove all stability to your driving, essentially making your ship a big rallly car on a hard turn drifting and being deported very far from where you originaly planned to be, but can also turn 180 in a heart beat. I knid of like it, you just have to calculate your trajectory according to it, but the worst is when you are accustomed to normal ship and enter a planet atmosphere to land... normal ship, just go straight and you are fine, but with that drifting boosted, make sure to take a long nice decend to the surface because you will hit it lol. It does not make you crash though, just a tiny bit of damage on your shield!
I haven't played for a while, this new addition to supercharged slots is just a good thing. Anyway, I really needed some advice on how to use them better, thanks.
I highly disagree with sprint being desirable on the jetpacks considering that you’re getting sprint from the forbiden technologies. Other than that, thank you for the fantastic video! It surely has and will continue to help a lot of people.
I was hoping for discussion of hazard shield modules, and how supercharged slots affect those. As a practical matter, I rarely devote space to anything but a single hazard shield of each type (including underwater). The C-class modules have trivial bonuses. The X-class bonuses vary widely, but are capped at 10%. That's still pretty low, even if it can apply to 4 of the 5 hazards.
I did cover how they are affected in this, but in the sense of the basic bonus types, so hazard protection x-class modules are multiplicative, so a supercharged slot will add 25% to each buff, so a hazard prot of 10%, is actually 1.1, this is then multiplied by 1.25 for 1.375, rounded up to 1.38 visual, so a perfect 10 would go to 38%, though a 10 may be a rounded up 9.1, so a 9.1 would show as 37% after supercharged
Man, I left the game about a year ago after I got the best upgrades and everything for... well, everything. Popped back on a whim tonight and wow, do I have a lot to catch up on and do.
I keep coming back to this video, amazing content Xaine! Regarding the neural stimulator mine has the 4 stats you mentioned as priority, not sure if they changed it from 3 recently.
13:33 Since this video was uploaded there have been multitudes of bases which have sprung up around the building where this alien multitool is obtainable. I got one today, but had to spend over an hour walking around because it is impossible to land anywhere near it, even with my micro sentinel ship. I already had one of these tools, bought by accident before I knew what I was doing, and it had none of the pink bits. I renamed that one "Hornus". Because the new one has got the pink crystals I renamed it "Hornita".
Glad it was helpful! And tbh it's only bad if there are more than 3 module with adjacency being grouped. While I don't explicitly mention lines, the adjacency guide linked does cover correct groupings
Thank you for the great guide! Supercharging pulse power is really smart, i completely forgot about that. It shrinks 28sec flight to 20sec! Hovewer, I have some questions: 1) I have 2 same (refiner-duped) X class pulse modules in two adjacent SCS. hovewer, putting a core pulse drive on one's side yields more total maneurability than the other's. Swapping these modules keeps the picture same position-wise, as if one SCS is a bit stronger than the other. I know the explanation is messy, so i have screenshots for clarity, but i seem to be unable to post a link in the comment 2) In my field testing for 2 SCS core jetpack + X class module yields more raw airtime than 2 X class modules. But if use only 1 SCS, putting the X class module yields more airtime than putting a core jetpack there. 3) You advise surrounding Sub-light Amplifier with other Greater modules, eventhough they dont have same stat. Does that mean that two modules not sharing the same stat is irrelevant for maximizing adjacency bonuses?
1. Something must be up, as you're saying they are both identical modules. It could maybe be in the way that it's calculated based on order of modules by slot, as maneuverability is a tough one, as it's a combination of 2 different maneuverability stats, one of which is hidden on the procedural upgrades. But that seems unlikely. You could post the images to me on discord if you're down, I'd be curious to checkem out. 2. Jetpack tanks when I researched all stats in January was one of the more tough to measure as other things like initial boost power can make the line difficult to find when measuring. 3. With adjacency, the stats don't have to match, think of it like the module is gaining a boost to its stats based on whether the adjacent modules are lesser or greater as well as the same type and nothing else. Once a lesser or greater bonus is known, the stat will then get one bonus if it's additive, another if it's multiplicative or no bonus if it's reductive
My plants aren't growing at all anymore, neither on the ground or on my freighter, and there are weird dirt explosions that happen randomly in all my planters
Great video, great info as always. One question, what's the benefit to boosting frigate mission speed when you're limited to 5 per day regardless? Unless they changed that and I missed it.
Thank you! And it largely depends on your situation, if you have a really established fleet, you can send all 5 out with 5 stars no worries, otherwise you may wish to stagger them and speeding up will make it easier. You may also play over the midnight line. Really I could have gone into more detail in the video.
This really helps! Returning player after I rage-quit in November '22, when feeling completely wrecked by the changes. Supercharged Slots on the ExoSuit feel very challenging to get right. I spend many hours a day opening X-class "Movement" type upgrades to find the perfect one(s). Still have that "Initial Boost" bug in that it shoots me up and then drops me down again by roughly that amount. Definitely don't want to boost that one and it has to roll a stupidly low % on the X-modules. Hazard Protection now this one is interesting, but could do with a guide on what and how to group them. I've read that having 3 S-class "tank mods" per damage type grouped around their respective 21% protection v. X is the way to go. So that it looks like 4x4 modules in total. Now here's the question: What's the cap on hazard damage protection (or reduction rather)? Would try and use a stopwatch on a Derelict Freighter, but they do crash my game at this time. Only using the BoltCaster on all MTs so if there's a guide that would help. Using the Infra-Knife (core) which adds 1 additional cannon, but the DPS number does not increase. Anyone know what's up with that? And lastly, why can't we have a detailed page in game with all stat totals and by how much we overcap certain stats? I wouldn't have guessed that shields or health have a hard cap if not for this video!
*IMPORTANT!* Unfortunately I made a mistake in this video; the Shield Lattice blueprint upgrade does not increase from 20% to 50%, it instead increases to 25% as this is an additive stat, not multiplicative.This was an unfortunate oversight on my part, this makes the Shield Lattice far less desirable, I would advise prioritising X-Class Hazard protection in it's place due to these being mostly all-covering and multiplicative, and so their bonuses are worth more.
Yeah, the X-Class hazard protection boosting is crazy. Also, for ships, I like to supercharge the efficient launcher module and on MTs, the scanner module that reduces the recharge times. All of these on Survival/PD runs help reduce those difficulty settings off the max. lol. Thanks for the video!

I tested boosting the pulse drive power and it made no noticeable difference.
Algorithm comment. This is going to take some rewatching to get settled in my brain.
@@FellowSunBro You'll get a massive Maneuverability boost by dropping your Polo figurine on a supercharged slot. I just pushed a Solar Sailor on PS5 to 3528.2 doing this.

This is immensely helpful, especially with putting the core techs on the slots instead of the upgrade modules.
These supercharged slots have made me the Juggernaut of the Calypso galaxy. The Vy'Keen praise me, they compare me to their hero Hurk.

Love the comment. Kind of an important yet overlooked fact.
How sure are you that expedition speed doesn’t lessen the fuel required? (Or, in a real life equivalency, it would likely increase fuel usage 😂)
After years of using the same ship and multi tool, it’s nice to now have a reason to have, and use different tools for different jobs.
Nice, in-depth analysis as always Xaine.
@SNTKI do you have a link? Tried searching but see nothing on this.

2 years later: The Multitool is now A class, and has only one supercharged slot.
Just a heads up, the alien MT has changed from s-class to a-class in a recent update. It also only has one SC slot.
Came to the comments to see if anyone shared in my plight
This needs to get pushed to the top lol. I just found the a class trash.

You're probably aware of this, but supercharged slots are not static on ships of the exact same model. I found two identical fighter ships on the same island that, when upgraded, had a supercharged slot much different from the other.
Its not "super long"... this guide is awesome!
As always, some deep in-depth guidage ( if thats a word ). Thanks Dude. Im sure i have all my stuff set up wrong so now I can go thru and move stuff about and make my saves more ........super ( u see what i did there ?) As for searching for multiple S class multi tool cabinets to find a desired super charged layout, well, ill leave that to the nut cases. I have a kiwi in mind for that. I think any i find will be the only one, since they are hard enough to find in the first place :)
Liking because you actually speak normally. Thank you.
I think this is important but my brain hurts, will have to come back and watch again I think. Thanks for the upload though, tis is something I need to understand but will have to go one by one when it counts. cheers
As usual awesome guide, thanks dude!
Thanks for this - exactly what I was looking 4
Damn, I didn't know you can boost the core modules too. Great job
Thanks for the comprehensive guide, it was really helpful!
thank you, this was very helpful
damn this is the best guide I ever read, we all know the basic and are looking for details and a bit more explanations!
Aaaw thank you!
Great info! Thanks for the incredibly useful video!
Very helpful, but I had figure it our mostly. What I prioritized mostly is depending on the superchargd slots layout. If for instance, I have 4 slots one next to another like this is the case for one of my sentinel ship. I will usually take a least 3 just for the weapon system and another one for ship pulse engine, or maneuovrability. Also I tested using the 4 supercharged for Infra knife main module and upgrade, and this is insane, I got like think over 93 000 peak damage... at that rate, you are melting ships in no time! But also, I like putting the pulse engine craftable upgrade, that give your ship manoeuvrability and the ability to slide like a pirate ship, it says... when boosted in supercharged, you ship will respond excessively quick to turn and just be really fun play with, but man this remove all stability to your driving, essentially making your ship a big rallly car on a hard turn drifting and being deported very far from where you originaly planned to be, but can also turn 180 in a heart beat. I knid of like it, you just have to calculate your trajectory according to it, but the worst is when you are accustomed to normal ship and enter a planet atmosphere to land... normal ship, just go straight and you are fine, but with that drifting boosted, make sure to take a long nice decend to the surface because you will hit it lol. It does not make you crash though, just a tiny bit of damage on your shield!
Looks like Hunting's back on the menu, boys!
What an excellent video and good editing. Thanks and keep it up-
Thank you Hyper
U rock, like the way your mind works. Appreciate you
I haven't played for a while, this new addition to supercharged slots is just a good thing. Anyway, I really needed some advice on how to use them better, thanks.
Fantastic - this has puzzled me, thank you so much
3 weeks of playing, and this has become useful to me. Minmaxing whee!
I highly disagree with sprint being desirable on the jetpacks considering that you’re getting sprint from the forbiden technologies.
Other than that, thank you for the fantastic video! It surely has and will continue to help a lot of people.
I was hoping for discussion of hazard shield modules, and how supercharged slots affect those.
As a practical matter, I rarely devote space to anything but a single hazard shield of each type (including underwater). The C-class modules have trivial bonuses. The X-class bonuses vary widely, but are capped at 10%. That's still pretty low, even if it can apply to 4 of the 5 hazards.
I did cover how they are affected in this, but in the sense of the basic bonus types, so hazard protection x-class modules are multiplicative, so a supercharged slot will add 25% to each buff, so a hazard prot of 10%, is actually 1.1, this is then multiplied by 1.25 for 1.375, rounded up to 1.38 visual, so a perfect 10 would go to 38%, though a 10 may be a rounded up 9.1, so a 9.1 would show as 37% after supercharged
Swishadelphia broski! Thanks for the guide man, great stuff
As always very informative thank you!
Man, I left the game about a year ago after I got the best upgrades and everything for... well, everything.
Popped back on a whim tonight and wow, do I have a lot to catch up on and do.
This is an amazing video, great work
This is a perfect guide thank you I have never understood the supercharge thing
Thank you! I'm happy it was helpful
I would love to see your suggestion for the layout of exosuit mods. Great, informative, helpful video!
Definitely incoming, working on starships first, exosuit hopefully not long after :)
@@XainesWorld Awesome! Thank you for taking the time to read my comment!
I keep coming back to this video, amazing content Xaine! Regarding the neural stimulator mine has the 4 stats you mentioned as priority, not sure if they changed it from 3 recently.
13:33
Since this video was uploaded there have been multitudes of bases which have sprung up around the building where this alien multitool is obtainable.
I got one today, but had to spend over an hour walking around because it is impossible to land anywhere near it, even with my micro sentinel ship.
I already had one of these tools, bought by accident before I knew what I was doing, and it had none of the pink bits.
I renamed that one "Hornus".
Because the new one has got the pink crystals I renamed it "Hornita".
What a great video!!! Thank you!
Awesome description, thanks!
Thank u so much for so nicely done guide. One thing that is missing is "why placing buffs in a line is bad".
Glad it was helpful! And tbh it's only bad if there are more than 3 module with adjacency being grouped.
While I don't explicitly mention lines, the adjacency guide linked does cover correct groupings
Thank you for the great guide! Supercharging pulse power is really smart, i completely forgot about that. It shrinks 28sec flight to 20sec!
Hovewer, I have some questions:
1) I have 2 same (refiner-duped) X class pulse modules in two adjacent SCS. hovewer, putting a core pulse drive on one's side yields more total maneurability than the other's. Swapping these modules keeps the picture same position-wise, as if one SCS is a bit stronger than the other. I know the explanation is messy, so i have screenshots for clarity, but i seem to be unable to post a link in the comment
2) In my field testing for 2 SCS core jetpack + X class module yields more raw airtime than 2 X class modules. But if use only 1 SCS, putting the X class module yields more airtime than putting a core jetpack there.
3) You advise surrounding Sub-light Amplifier with other Greater modules, eventhough they dont have same stat. Does that mean that two modules not sharing the same stat is irrelevant for maximizing adjacency bonuses?
1. Something must be up, as you're saying they are both identical modules. It could maybe be in the way that it's calculated based on order of modules by slot, as maneuverability is a tough one, as it's a combination of 2 different maneuverability stats, one of which is hidden on the procedural upgrades. But that seems unlikely.
You could post the images to me on discord if you're down, I'd be curious to checkem out.
2. Jetpack tanks when I researched all stats in January was one of the more tough to measure as other things like initial boost power can make the line difficult to find when measuring.
3. With adjacency, the stats don't have to match, think of it like the module is gaining a boost to its stats based on whether the adjacent modules are lesser or greater as well as the same type and nothing else.
Once a lesser or greater bonus is known, the stat will then get one bonus if it's additive, another if it's multiplicative or no bonus if it's reductive
Cool thanks for the info I had no idea what was going on when I came back
great guide! I don't know if it's a bug but I'm only getting 25 when harvesting plants and before the update, it was much higher, almost double.
My plants aren't growing at all anymore, neither on the ground or on my freighter, and there are weird dirt explosions that happen randomly in all my planters
I have the same issue. I hope they revert harvest amounts so I don't have to double my farms size just to get the same results as before😮💨
Great video, great info as always. One question, what's the benefit to boosting frigate mission speed when you're limited to 5 per day regardless? Unless they changed that and I missed it.
Thank you!
And it largely depends on your situation, if you have a really established fleet, you can send all 5 out with 5 stars no worries, otherwise you may wish to stagger them and speeding up will make it easier.
You may also play over the midnight line.
Really I could have gone into more detail in the video.
1:00 note that sentinel interceptors can have varying slot locations among the same model. They seem to cycle between a few supercharge layouts
This really helps!
Returning player after I rage-quit in November '22, when feeling completely wrecked by the changes.
Supercharged Slots on the ExoSuit feel very challenging to get right.
I spend many hours a day opening X-class "Movement" type upgrades to find the perfect one(s).
Still have that "Initial Boost" bug in that it shoots me up and then drops me down again by roughly that amount.
Definitely don't want to boost that one and it has to roll a stupidly low % on the X-modules.
Hazard Protection now this one is interesting, but could do with a guide on what and how to group them.
I've read that having 3 S-class "tank mods" per damage type grouped around their respective 21% protection v. X is the way to go.
So that it looks like 4x4 modules in total.
Now here's the question:
What's the cap on hazard damage protection (or reduction rather)?
Would try and use a stopwatch on a Derelict Freighter, but they do crash my game at this time.
Only using the BoltCaster on all MTs so if there's a guide that would help.
Using the Infra-Knife (core) which adds 1 additional cannon, but the DPS number does not increase.
Anyone know what's up with that?
And lastly, why can't we have a detailed page in game with all stat totals and by how much we overcap certain stats?
I wouldn't have guessed that shields or health have a hard cap if not for this video!
