Choosing Equipment for your Core Exiles Future

Passenger Cabin Module Rev 2- This passenger cabin seats 2 of each class passenger and has a low device requirement. Your cost can be recouped after only a few runs out of system.

Remote Mining Drone (Hera)- Get schematics and make these! The benefit of refining your own ore far exceeds the cost. They also make a pretty penny on the player market as well.

Storm Reactor Rev 1- A good beginner reactor is a must have. Energy production will be your first major obstacle.

Frontiersman Shield Rev 2- Many will disagree, but I believe defense is a priority. This shield is the most attainable for a new player. It's specs are:
Max Shield HP: 750 units
Energy Requirement: 800

Min Skill: (Reflective) 35
Captain Level: 10
