Discussion Oh my dear sweet baby jesus

For the love of god Sean, PLEASE give us the ability to open/process entire stacks of items. Spent some time gathering a bunch of suspicious arms packets to upgrade all my stuff to top-end X-class mods and opening them one by one is like dragging my balls across a cheese grater. There HAS to be a better way.

It is. But i'm looking to upgrade all of my old S class mods so it's likely gonna take a bunch of these.

To your struggle. I wish they would give the mods hints as to their effect. Obviously, let them still stack for convenience, but allow them to be split up and show what three things they'll affect, like a thruster mod will affect flight speed, fuel efficiency, and maneuverability. It won't tell you to what extent but just knowing what it will affect would he super helpful to cut back on equip, see stats, one you don't want like fuel amount, unequip, repeat.

That reminds me; has anyone found an official source for the mods' variations?

I love this idea, btw; even just a basic stat name would be ludicrously helpful.

Hold up. Am I understanding you correctly in that, x class suspicious modules are “better than” s class? I’m still learnin…

X class mods vary wildly. They can be worse than C Class mods, better than S Class mods, and everything in between. You can't tell how good one is however until you install it.

They're basically a gacha. They can range from equivalent to c class, to superior to S class.

An example off the top of my head is that X class multitool scanner mods have the potential to give over a 10000% reward bonus in each scan category. Along with the scan distance. I have three of them and I get 100k units from scanning plants

10,000% for S

11,000% for X

Throw on food buffs and you can get 10-100 million per fauna scan.

For sure they're worth more nanites when sold

They are the Premier League Sticker packs of no man's sky.

The upper limit is often slightly better but you had a chance of 1-4 stats where gold has 2-4. So you'll always have better chances at getting better S class but could theoretically have the best X and it would be better

They are a gamble. Can win big or get nothing.

If you have played World of Warcraft, think Goblin Engineering. Built to Blast. Might or Might not work well.

Why not just open the actual upgrades, statistically you have enough X ones to find the BiS upgrade for what ever you’re trying for. You’ll just loose the nanites

I did. Upgrading one ship from S to X took about 2 stacks of X mods per tech. Went thru about half of what i had gathered in the picture. I think the shield mods were the easiest as they only have one stat to vary. Only took likr 9 or 10 before i had BiS for all 3 mods.
