This made me look at what I have on my suits fir the first time in a good while.
Looks like I'll be reworking some of them!

Having just started on foot gameplay I found your video interesting and helpful. I’ve been playing regularly since 2016 and grew tired of the normal gameplay loops and hid away mining solo or doing exo stuff. This on foot game play whilst very grindy…if you make the grind part of the gameplay there’s a whole lot of fun I didn’t realise was there…crazy huh..just got my Mav suit to G4, just those darn manufacturing instructions to grind..nice vid, I’ll be checking your playlist for sure .o7

Shield use battery a lot especially when recharging. You can keep alive in a non modded dominator for over 20+ mins when the shield is off. Improved Battery Capacity only help if you don't have recharge port nearby or need to rise your Shield often
As a stealth player. Reduced Tool Battery Consumption actually gives you longer operation time than Improved Battery Capacity (Yes, you can use both to max it out).
Here's the scenario:
- Your battery have 100 power and your tool will use 10 power each time
- Reduced Tool Battery Consumption -50% makes the tool to use 5 power (you've double your usage)
- Improved Battery Capacity increase 50% of your battery pool to 150 (you can use your tool 15 times)

What a great guide to kick off the Odyssey grind. Nice work!

[jedison]

Thanks for the great tutorial and basic of each mod. As mentioned I would love a weapons mod video.

[DNH]

I like videos that show what happens when u press buttons so that explain implicitly or explicitly what happens when doing stuff. True tutorials I mean yeah.
And also not so cool jumping here and there when scavenging considering that Ai should see you including sentinels..So.. it's a bit of a immersion killer.

[MrRocksW]

Thanks for the video! Would be awesome to see a similar guide for the weapon mods too

[Rhodoran]

Straight to the point, thank you so much for this guide!

[Carcosa_Wanderer]

Great guide! What about weapon and mods?

[laserspike]

Nice video - thanks! Just one caution: "extra backpack capacity" does NOT increase consumable capacity (sadly).

[joeyu]

Extremely helpful :) just wondering how you grinded all the goods, I tried finding repair missions but ive found it to be super rare any tips?

[emperorpalpatine]

I don't think Night vision is necessary on an Artemis suit. I think reduced power tool consumption for the biology scanner is probably the better pick. But that's just my personal preference

[RiminiVirage]

Great video. very informative, thank you.

I'm trying to make a combat-focused maverick for the new AX reactivation missions. I bought a g3 maverick with night vision, and I'm thinking of modding it with shield regen, ammo capacity (for the missile launcher), and damage resistance, depending on whether or not the damage resistance mod applies to the new thargoid revenant scavengers. If it doesn't then probably sprint duration.

[tommysecondspace]

That is a great guide, especially because you can ruin a suit with the wrong mix of modifications. Plaese post the link in the forums. More ppl should see this.

[guillaumegarbe]

Could someone explain combat movement speed bonus as neither frontier explanation or this guide are explaining it clearly ? Thanks

[webknows]

Excellent video! Just discovered your channel and subscribed. Which one of your videos you'd recommend watching for learning the ropes of successful Odyssey incursions? i.e. material farming. I have a decent G3 loadout, suit + weapons.

[Rykaas]

New player's question:
What about quiter footsteps instead of improved jump assist on the Maverick?
And what about Night vision instead of damage resistance on the dominator

[MrZmogutis]

why back pack on maverick im 3rd day just started to do upgrades im full of materials not even taking any more as im struggling with data, have g4 already + quite steps and thinking to put on night vision, improved battery and instead of back pack i guess jump or ammor or shield regen. Just finished to get data for back pack but i dont see why i would need it ? or im missing something? And sprint as well i dont see reason as you can bunny hoping same speed as sprint and dont use stamina
