Right-Size Your Slots. Match the size and sales of the item to the right sized pick slot to maximize the utilization of the picking slot cube. Having various sizes of picking slots can facilitate this process. The same logic applies to locations where you store reserve or overstocks.


  1. Put more stuff in your bank. Buy a single month of subscription, that'll permanently increase your inventory and bank, and even give you 10 slots of account bank. It's good value (the account bank itself being 2/3 of the price a sub). It will not affect new characters though.
  2. Also, as a free player your character inventory is limited, your bank slots are limited (subscribers get 2 times the amount of slots I think), you do not have the account bank (useful for trading certain items between your toons that can't be send through the mail system), you do not get a free respec token every ten levels, you have a maximum of 5 character slots.
  3. Lot of white junk gear that can be dumped and it does look like you stripped out 3 cstore shuttles to fill your inventory just for the sake of it. I just wanted to see everything that would fit, and max out the slots, I will do some major house keeping and discard most of the stuff, including all the shuttle stuff.

Deflector Shield Upgrade is a starship upgrade.

Summary[edit edit source]

Deflector Shield Upgrades, contained within Starship Shield Modules, are procedurally generated upgrades granting bonuses to the Deflector Shield of the starship.

Upgrade properties[edit edit source]

Deflector Shield Upgrades grant a varying bonus based on their class:

Sto
  • Shield Strength: Increases the Shield Absorption, indirectly increasing the Deflector Shield's durability up to 40% each.

This module can lead to confusion as a direct calculation would have players rather expect a +1.5 increase at 100% before accounting for starship shield class bonuses. This is not the case! The absorption uses the base factor of 0.5 to calculate the new strength which is then added to the base defense of 1 (SS=1+0.5*P% / 1+0.5*200%=2).

It is never a good idea to install B-Class shield upgrades, as they give a bonus no better than a C-Class upgrade. The better approach is to sell B-Class shield upgrade and use the proceeds to buy and install a C-Class upgrade, resulting in the same bonus on average, and additional left over for other uses.

Up to three Deflector Shield Upgrades can be installed in each inventory tab of the starship. Installing four or more upgrades in a given inventory tab will disable all upgrades of that type on that tab until the upgrade count is reduced to three or less.

Crafting[edit edit source]

Deflector Shield Upgrades can only be obtained from opening Starship Shield Modules.

Deflector Shield Upgrade can be repaired using the following ingredients:

  • Chromatic Metal x50 + Sodium x50 + Wiring Loom x1

Deflector Shield Upgrade can be dismantled after construction, returning the following ingredients:

Installing[edit edit source]

Upgrade modules follow a static progression. The generation seed is used for all module families at the same time. During module installations it goes up by one. The new module they change into correlates to their order of installation. If the game is reloaded, the exact same pool will be offered to the player, no matter the order they install other modules.

Example: If an S-class module had 200 ly Hyperdrive Range bonus on the third installation no matter in what order the former modules are installed or their class, if the same S-class module is used third again, it will once again be the 200 ly bonus module even if the name changes. Only if used second or fourth the module stat may change.
