“Hello Citizens!
This video is a submission to the IAE2953 Guide to Professions Contest. Enjoy!”
This guide provides information on purchasing, equipping, and finding gear and equipment in Star Citizen. Players can buy items at various shops located in Landing Zones and stations, although not all items are available at every shop. To purchase items, players interact with the kiosk terminal in the shop, where they can browse and filter items, view their descriptions and stats, and specify the quantity to buy. Items can be equipped by opening the inventory and double-clicking on the desired item, replacing any previously equipped items in that slot. It is important to note that armor and weapons can only be equipped if the character is wearing an undersuit.
Undersuits are the base of a player’s loadout, providing basic environmental protection and allowing breathing in space when combined with a helmet. Some special undersuits also function as a full set of armor designed for extreme environments. Armors, consisting of helmet, core, arms, and legs, offer protection from damage and the environment, as well as providing inventory space and equipment slots. Paying attention to damage reduction and temperature resistance values when selecting armor is crucial. Backpacks can be equipped to provide extra inventory space and attachment slots for weapons and mining gadgets.
Weapons allow players to equip a sidearm and one or two primary weapons, depending on the armor and backpack being worn. Tools include the multi-tool, which can equip attachments for tasks such as tractor beam, mining, medical, and salvage, as well as the specialized medical tool for better injury treatment and a larger tractor beam for moving large objects. Consumables range from foods and drinks for extended stay, medical consumables for treating injuries, to neutralizing symptoms of serious damage.
To find where to buy items and look up their stats, players can use the Star Citizen Armory tool, which provides a convenient resource for this purpose. The guide concludes by thanking the viewers, encouraging safe flying, and expressing the hope to see them in the game.
