Subsystems are as much of a game changer as Augmentations. Since each different race unlocks various blue options in encounters, rounding out your roster here is very useful.

Random encounters where you can get crew members are moderately common, but this is the only time where you can get specific crew. System subtypes, finding a weapon that works with what you already have is extremely useful. Weapons are rare and diverse enough that what you find will likely dictate which direction your build goes. Scrap Recovery Arm and Long Range Scanner are useful to everyone, Weapons Reloader and Weapons Pre-igniter are useful to weapons-based ships, Stealth Weapons are useful for Weapon-based ships that have cloak, Drone Recovery Arm is useful for drone users, and Repair Arm should never be bought. They are by far the best way to upgrade your ship and are a huge force multiplier. From rarest (and therefore highest priority) to most common, the order isĪugments are number one simply due to how valuable they are.

Stores have random items in them, so it is important to know which ones will be most important to buy.
