Med Kits are not the strongest at healing but they have 0 weight and you find them everywhere. If you are at the starport and see another ship come in you can loot the med pack from their loading bay without penalty.
They are kinda like the Maxdocs from Cyberpunk. Everyone uses the green (uncommon) one despite there being blue (rare) and purple (epic) versions of it. However you can find the green ones basically everywhere you look.
YOU MONSTER! 🤣
The next time they need a med kit they are fucked 💀
@reece42069 I was thinking that as well but oh well as long as we are safe 😅
Yep, I have a few of the others for emergency but I have over a 100 med kits and I buy out every vendor I visit
I feel like Bethesda heard every speed runner's complaint about too many med packs in FO4 and took it to heart. Because I can never find any of them most of the time when looting corpses and have to buy most of mine.
The safe in your room in the lodge does have unlimited storage, but it's in a pretty inconvenient spot. If you go into the lodge basement, into the room with all the crafting stations, there's a small box on a table in front of the research station that also has unlimited storage, and it's in a much better spot since it's basically surrounded by all the crafting stations.
and its safe from despawning your items?
@@Ashaira I've been using it since the beginning of the game, and I'm level 30 now. Either it doesn't despawn items, or it has a very long delay
Came here to say this. MUCH more convenient for crafting.
You are all heros thank you
I think the one in the room is mainly for weapons and armour that you don't want to sell but don't wanna take up valuable space in the inventory or spaceship cargo
One thing the game never told me, was that if you hold "aim" when using the cutter, the reticle will narrow and it'll overcharge, mining/damaging a lot faster.
Yeah this is really important for those harder to crack minerals (like the ones in artifact caves). Cuts the time from like 3-4 seconds to 1-2.
Huge tip.
Bro, thank you
Bro what I thought I just had a lousey laser miner was lasering those things forever
Ffs, this is genuinely info that's a game changer I'd it's even a little faster lol.
@2:50 I think the choice to not let players upgrade receivers to Calibrated or Advanced was to make the loot game last longer. One of the issues with FO4 was that if you rushed Gun Nut you could craft endgame weapons very early on. This way you’re slowly upgrading weapons as you find better versions, and then you focus on getting a Legendary Advanced version
The problem i see with the lack of upgrade tier option, is that it makes a bit pointless wasting resources on modding normal, calibrated and refined weapons and armors. Why would i mod this weapons if a few levels ups will spawn an advanced, or better, a Superior tier weapon/armor?
What i would have done is make the upgrade tier resource hungry, plus requiring rare resurces and other items. And putting the requerimemt of needing to unlock tge previous tier before getting the higher ones. That way, none could jump from basic straight to Superior if they have tge resources needed.
One would have to upgrade first to calibrated, then upgrade to refined, then advanced and finaly superior.
@@oscarc9417 so it feels like they actually paced the system out well…… sort of. I’m about 25 hours in, level 20, and stores only carry up to Calibrated weapons. Most “unique” drops from enemies (the kind with a modifier you can’t craft, like Chameleon or +damage to humans) are still baseline or maybe Refined. So if the pacing continues like this, it makes more sense to drop a few resources now to keep my weapons dealing good damage than to wait until endgame.
All that said… I also somehow got my hands on 2 Advanced weapons that completely outpace everything else I’ve found in terms of DPS. I can’t remember if they were random dungeon loot, or locked behind a Master door. Either way, in typical Bethesda fashion their proc gen system screwed itself up and as a result I use those 2 weapons almost exclusively when I’m not dealing with scrub enemies
You can upgrade though. I upgraded all my weapons with the weapon workbench thingy at my outpost. Lol
@@YeaaIJusShiddedOnEm there’s 3 upgrade systems in the game. There’s the affix system, where the game will assign a weapon/spacesuit piece as uncommon, rare or legendary and apply 1-3 effects that are exclusive to that system. There’s the pure upgrade system talked about in this video, where weapons go to Refined, Calibrated and Advanced, which is a straight improvement each level and is determined by loot drop and not craftable. And then there’s the system of modifiers that you can add on at a crafting bench, which give small improvements that aren’t nearly as impactful as the other 2 systems. But it’s so hard to find a Legendary Advanced version of the item you want, with the correct effects, that you might as well craft upgrades to carry you over
@@oscarc9417 most if not all of the craftable mods only cost a few pretty common resources, though. Not worth waiting for better tiers.
It sucks to have a "legendary" low-tier weapon you can't upgrade though, I agree.
But there are always console commands. You can add and remove the rarity modifiers if you look up the amod/rmod command and the OMOD list of codes.
The one tip that seems so obvious but took me forever to understand; make use of your ship's cargo and upgrade it when you can. All workbenches pull resources from your inventory AND your ships inventory regardless of how far away it is. Also gathering loot (primarily guns and armor) drop it in cargo hold to sell later at vendors. And just like workbenches, you can sell from your cargo hold directly to vendors. So just make a habit of using that cargo hold,
Another tip is contraband. Getting the skills and ship tech to smuggle the stuff around is good but you can always take contraband and head to The Den merchant in the Wolf system, right by Sol and Alpha Centauri. No skills required, they don't scan you. Trade Authority vendor is just inside, use the 48 hour wait and pawn it all off.
I like to use the Den to sell off my contraband and fill up on ammo. They have a few of the rarer varieties conveniently there
Eventually I made an outpost to dump all my garbage in instead of the ship. Though the containers take resources to make so eh. I just like my ship not looking like a giant pile of containers.
@@christmastrees9095the Galleon S202 cargo hold looks exactly like the Taiyo Mid Cap... 950 cargo space too!
Where do you recommend storing crafting materials? I have like 1000kg of them so I’m out of room in my ship for loot
@@TheEljefe20where do you find this one?
Seeing the laser used on the hinges reminds me of 007 Goldeneye on N64. When you use the laser watch on the train to cut the hinges off of the latch.
There's a lot of games that have a similar mechanic, but it's usually something they specifically mention as a tutorial part.
Nightfire too
Trying to get those quickly before the train exploded on hardest difficulty, in order to unlock the last secret level was the bane of my childhood. Even using the stupidly long manually entered cheat codes didn't help.
I’ve been there, Gandalf, 3000 years ago.
This game just gets better every hour I play. Unreal. Thanks for the tips. This game is so deep it's hard to figure out everything.
Is it really worth it ?
I see a lot of bad reviews with a lot of views
@@jesserdo9963 yea, for sure. It starts off slow though. Some people can't get over that bump I think.
@@jesserdo9963
Just wait for sale or pirate and see if you like it
@@jesserdo9963 Yeah but I'm also seeing a bunch of positive reviews from channels I trust. ACG, g man, upper echelon and more. Plus it's on game pass
A carryover tip from Fallout 4: when you kill an enemy in open combat you can pick up their weapon to loot all unfired rounds from the magazine. Considering all the ammo types in the game, it can help to carry something for dealing with trash mobs that uses commonly carried ammo so that you can replenish it from all the enemies you kill.
Oh cool never realised this - thanks
I just keep the cutter on hand, regens ammo and you can increase damage by right clicking to focus
That's basically why I still carry around a 7.7 hunter rifle. It's really common ammo.
Thrusters is not an alternative mode. It's a flight option available for the first rank of the piloting skill
but you know "the game nEVeR TelLs you"
@@commandernomad2817ikr lol just like the game never tells you to cut the pins on that door in the beginning where it specifically has the words "cut pins" 😂
if im not mistaken the keybinds menu actually calls it "switch flight mode" so it technically is an alternate mode.
@@commandernomad2817I literally didn't know about Thrusters for 15 Hours. Figured it out myself though.
@@Disastormcorrect, but you do need the perk.
The infinite storage safe at the HQ is what I needed thank you!!! I was wasting so much space on my ship just storing cool outfits and armor with no use for them other than to collect them all.
If you have the Dream Home perk like me you can fill a whole room with mannequins and put all your armor sets on them as well as weapon displays and also pack displays, helmet displays my house is decked out haha
There is another infinite storage chest in the basement right behind the research computer on the desk, right between all the crafting workshops
Did you know you can cheat in the flight sim by standing up and going to the reset computer and hacking it! You can Spawn 2 allies boost shields and damage. it makes it easier to clear all six levels of the test. I think it might also be a Star Trek Easter egg that is referring to when Captain Kirk cheated on his simulator Exam!
It is. Unlike the Kobayashi Maru the UC staff don't even hassle you for using the debug mode. To them you're just being thorough and resourceful. You can then put those extra Sign Up Bonus credits into a fancy new starship.
You can also move your ship into position amongst the abandoned station, so you are as surrounded by the structure as possible, and then leave the pilot seat. The enemy ships will stop firing, and if you wait long enough, they will blow themselves up by colliding with the station as they maneuver around you.
For the simulator do you have to side with the vanguard use it?
They tell you to do it though, it's the debug system, use every tool at your disposal to your advantage. They even comment on everything extra you do.
2:50 oh that makes so much sense: I found this revolver type gun that does 100 damage per shot with no upgrades. It’s been pretty much the only thing I’ve been using since I found it. However all other versions of the gun I found only had it doing like 30 per shot. That explains it
Terrible game design. These looter shooter mechanics arent well thought out at all...
Yeah I found an advanced Maelstrom that did like 26 damage and was full auto. I molded it and it's been my go to since level 12.
@@mw00295not a perfect game but better than most games by a long shot
The stronger guns drop from stronger enemies. It's not looter shooter mechanics, it's level mechanics. Go to the highest level systems and all enemies will drop advanced weapons. Some weapons don't even have weaker versions and will only drop from enemies capable of dropping advanced weapons (the mag weapons are one such). Additionally vendors sell stuff based on your level, so once you start getting into the 40's+ you'll start seeing more advanced weapons in stores.
@@eXponentia That would explain getting an Advanced at level 12. Must have dropped a level 30+ dude or raided a chest in a level 30 area.
I love how part of the title is “things Starfield never tells you about” and the first thing it shows is the door with “CUT PINS” written on each of the pins holding the door lol
Only one I didn’t know though 😅
Let's be honest, most people don't notice that when playing the game. I certainly haven't.
I like how the door is offensively red, says "Emergency Cuttable Wall - Cut Pins" and you just know a ton of people never thought about trying it.
Gotta have content to report.
Using the cutter was the first thing I thought of since they literally put a box with a cutter right next to it.
Unfortunately, I didn't notice that the pin was actually cut at first, so I circled the area for 2-3 minutes looking for a different path at first.
for the loot in the chests, before entering the first door on the dungeons or bases, you save the game, change the dificulty to very hard, enter the base and then change to very easy, run past people and get the loot, if you don´t like the content, rince and repeat. For "farming" legendary loot from elite enemies, you get them to very low health, save the game and kill, if you don´t like the gear, reload and do it again, and again.
Sorry for my english, tiping from Brazil.
Your English is great!
But what's the point of even playing the game at that point? I'll never understand this mentality in games... I
@@siahmanjoe yeah it kinda just defeats the point of grinding for good loot
@@siahmanjoeI personally don't do it but as someone with 4 kids I understand it. Not having the time to grind can drive some to do things others wouldn't.
You can make the mining laser faster by holding down right click/aim button while firing the laser.
I have seen no youtube creator mention this and is an easily missable feature.
Yo that's a major tip!!! Thanks
@@XingCollectables Happy to help! Share the knowledge with friends. Its a big time saver
8:37 theres also a storage container in the basement of the lodge that has unlimited space for all things. its right infront of the research table next to a flower pot
AAAAAAAAAAAAAA this will save me a ton of time having to slow-walk up and down from the safe in my room every time I craft. Thanks!
and this container will be used too if you craft on another planet or something? So you can just dump everything in there like the ship?
@@Softload3r no it’s only that container. But it’s next to every table or craft table type so I just dump all my resources or any crafting related things in there.
@@drew_echo yep, with fast travel you can “land” right at the house door, too. I Was selling organic resources to the gal in the house who buys them. Now I'll put it all in there. At least what's highlighted for my research projects…
@@michealnelsonauthor You can't fast travel when over-encumbered unfortunately :(
There is a storage case on the table behind the research station in the Constellation crafting room- thus far it appears to be bottomless.
Missing in my NG1 run.
@@Shibbyuse the safe in your room in constellation then, same same but different location, edit: shibby right mate.
@@ShibbyBUUUUUT shibby
Do you know if that one connects to the workshop stations?
Unethical! @@JamesT094
I have watched a bunch of Starfield guides but you add details such as the Mantis armour save and reroll (it was never mentioned in the others) and it's those little details that I look for so you have earned my only subscription as far as Starfield content is concerned
About the space bar in the ship. It also maintains your momentum in that direction. So you Can boost away from enemies and then hold space and flip around and still be moving away from them as you shoot them.
This is the real tip!!!
Turn 'n burn
This video was extremely helpful. Thanks Juice!
Just a note, If you've opened the case, looked at the armour, but not collected it. If you saved here, when you reload the save the perks on the armour will reroll. I made a couple of saves of potential armour perks but on one I never removed it from the case. When I reloaded it to compare it to another set, the perks changed. I did this multiple times.
I think the reasoning for the whole calibrated/refined/advanced receivers not being craftable is because bethesda knew in fallout that you just push for the advanced receivers on all your gear. To me it makes sense that advanced gear would be locked vehind the highest level of crafting. I also don't get why they didn't just do that.
agreed, in FO4 I basically kept the same weapon all game because i could just upgrade it early on. that also meant i was less likely to try out new weapon types because the damage wasn't as good as that upgraded weapon
@@lovelybitofsquirrel8272 exactly. You could just find the best silencer or an advanced receiver and add it to your gun, so it was really easy to have OP gear early on
??? I have a weapon crafting bench at my outpost and I add these upgrades to my guns there. You just need to do the required research first.
Not sure if that’s what you meant but if you did, then yeah that actually is in the game
@@YeaaIJusShiddedOnEm you can give a weapon the advanced prefix? Silencers and scopes, yes, but I understood you couldn't make the weapon advanced.
@@serfandterf me, commenting before watching the video for context:
My b 😂
Straight to the point with no Filler. An excellent tips video!
I figured out the tyrannis pizzle myself, its a shame every one just give the answer instead of telling you to look at the logs, it felt so awesome figuring it out myself.
How old are you
I bypass the puzzle by hacking the computer nearby to disable the turrets then casually walk across it 😂
Are you 12 years old
Yeah he ruined it for everyone :( fortunately I had already done it too. This is literally one of the most interesting puzzles in the entire game
Another tip. The only ship that carries over in the new game plus is the frontier. So you might want to just stick with that and upgrade
Will it at least be the upgraded version you start with?
If it doesn’t keep what you add to it, there is no reason to keep it around because you get a MUCH better ship for free for completing one of the factions.
Unless you want to die in a lot of space battles before having enough skill points invested the tech tree to actually build powerful starships (and the credits required to do so), get your hands on a better ship because the Frontier is pretty worthless once space battles become more common place.
@@jasonkeenan4154 Mine did not
@@LockeWickyeah at first I thought the space combat was just bad but as I watched other playthroughs, you need to upgrade fast or get left behind lol.
@@Synthacratyes, I'm being bounty hunted and my 1st encounter with them was a pretty tough space battle
I like the weapon changes. It forces more meaningful decisions when it comes to weapon choice. In my most recent F4 playthrough, I find that most of my weapons just sit around unused in a locker, because I've crafted them so all of their damage is really high. There's not much reason to stop using one or to start liking another.
W JUICE From start to end very informative and no unnecessary commentary *I love it here* 👌🏾
great tip is also, loots from chest and bodies are much better o, harder difficulties. before enter a base, put it on very hard and save it, once entering you can town it down again, but because the area is loaded under very hard, the rewards will be of that level. and the differences are quite insane.
i can recommend to never go under hard ever in any area...these things will add up eventually
Was surprised that there was a different solution to the Mantis word puzzle. Spiffing Brit just blew up the turrets 😂
Extremely appreciative of the weapon “advanced” tip. Did not know that one and I am 30 hours deep.
Thank you so much for this!! I had no idea about the weapon/armour tiers. This has added another whole level to look for in loot! Thank you!
one of the best videos i’ve seen with advanced and detailed tips. appreciate you gang
I desperately hope for some mods to allow weapon level editing and to connect the Lodge safe to the crafting tables downstairs. Also, thanks for the Mantis and Piloting tips!
@@steinhawk9187 this will most likely make enemies far to easy. Unless they start using multiple reactors aswell.
Also the ability to get the mods of weapons when you change mods/craft the no mod option, so you can swap them around when you get better gear instead of having to craft them all again.
Bro, you might as well use unlimited storage mods on ship.
So glad your doing vids on Starfeild. I feel like this is a mix of fallout 4 and cyberpunk, in the best way possible. 😊
Best tips video yet!! Good job man !!
Some excellent tips - thank you. So helpful.
Subbed
For the simulator in MAST, you can actually leave the seat while you are flying and go back to the 'Restart simulation console' to access the debug options.
There you can increase your shield, damage and spawn an ally.
Lol i passed with Tier 4 result, if i knew this would have scored more in my UC vanguard Recruitment exam 😂
@@thatIndianGamerGuy even with it the last stage is super hard, you can beat it but it's meant to be almost unwinnable even with the cheats. Also it's not worth the effort really lol
@@Menroth.kobayashi maru?
@Menroth. I managed to beat wave 6 the first time trying it with the debug cheats somehow. Retrying it to kill ships, I struggled even getting past wave 5, and could not beat 6 again.
SON OF A
Minor spoiler warning would have been nice
Wow what a great collection of tips!! Thank you!
I'll always respect you for jumping straight to the point.
When you board a ship all you have to do is pilot it for a sec then go back to your other ship. And then. Once you go to a space port the ship you commandeered will show up without you having to worry about bypassing security for illegal items.
I want the Fallout 4 trade interface, and I want to be able to take mods off some guns to put them on others. F4 was silly that you craft new sights to take a scope off a gun, but in SF you cant take them off at all, it's just gone.
It does seem weird that removing a mod seems to destroy it. If you weren't invested in crafting perks in FO4 taking Mods from found and purchased weapons was a viable strategy, but here you basically have to invest in modding perks if you want your legendary weapons to be very good.
Same with ship parts... i dont want to use the mantis ship, but i want to put the cargo space on my main ship lol
good stuff! You are the first tuber to mention the unlimited storage safe. And I genuinely learned new things from you after many chaff vids put out there.
Awesome video. I had no idea about the weapon receivers. Thank you!
For crafting storage, in the basement of the Lodge there is a room with all the machine to craft and a storage box. I simply pull all my resources in the storage box. It's not linked so you can't craft directly from it but at least it's only a few step away. Also, whenever I visit a station or outpost, I take note if there is any kind of storage box close to the landing area, even if it's an ammo box as you can drop anything in it. I use these storage box to keep stuff like contraband. I even started to make maps with a red cross to mark the spot...
Legendary weapons on enemies seem to be determined when they are killed. I farmed the first dungeon boss for a useful epic drop before moving on. (Also experienced a glitch where the inside Pirate bodies respawned all of their loot, a good way to stock up on ammo and weapons to sell early)
Yeah do a save with just the boss left then kill him and reload if you don't like what drops
@@autisticspacetruckereven better, do what you said but hit the boss or elite until it’s close to dying then save (try saving after each hit so you don’t accidentally kill them). Kill them with the last hit and check their loot, if you don’t like it reload and repeat.
Super useful stuff. Thanks!
Thank you for reroll info for mantis gear, HUGE HELP, Thanks Juice, Always appreciate your videos
If you hold space you can turn the ship around as well. So not only can you use thrusters, you can turn your ship 180 but still go the original way you wanted. like drifting
reverse entry, intergalactic bitches!
I wonder what the equivalent of that is on a controller. I will have to test that out.

Brooo!! I absolutely LOVE how the video just starts with the content. No stupid intro to sit through telling us what the video is going to be about! We already knew when we touched the thumbnail! Lol Thanks for making this video! It's super informative, the pacing is perfect, and I definitely learned a lot bro! Thanks so much for this. My second character is going to be a GOD Thanks to you!
THANKS.. really big help.. didn't know about much of what you listed. =D
The good news about the lock-on mechanic for ships is that, even if you aren’t locked-on for missiles, you can still hit your target if you’re skilled and lucky enough to lead your shot. But, depending on what kind of missiles you have (long reload, low capacity, high dmg, or short reload, high capacity mid dmg, etc) you may not want to waste your shots.
Re weapons system. It’s a great idea as it makes loot still relevant later and you cannot craft something OP with maxed crafting early in game.
But you can't GET max crafting early game (well, ir's not straightforward).
Frankly, you couldn't do it in FO4 or Skyrim either.
Legend thank you Juicehead. Love your vids
How are you still uner 1 mil. Ive been watching for so long and wouldve expected more subs bc of how amazing and useful the videos are. Wishing the best
This has to be the best "secret features" video out there! Thanks a lot! You just made this game even more better to play!
The save scamming of loot works on enemies as well. The loot is generated upon death. So, if you save when the enemy is low health and kill them, the loot gets re-rolled. This is especially effective with 'elite' enemies (the ones with multiple bars of health) since they always have higher loot tables.
pretty decent tips without spoiling story stuff, thx man
The business about "receivers", that is the weapons tier system, is directly analogous to finding a better material weapon in Skyrim. Ebony is a much higher tier than steel, for example. You can't upgrade a steel longsword to an ebony one, even if it has great extra abilities.
Although, since they're just invisible OMODS (the system the game uses to add all extra abilities to weapons and armor) I'm sure there will be a mod as soon as the Starfield Creation Kit drops. You'll just need to be able to do compiled scripting associated with a weapons workbench or vendor or something like that.
Very nice tip on the Mantis armor. I'm currently on my first playthrough, and just figured out the word puzzle. I guess now the time I wasted trying momma's phrase starting with SIC and getting gunned down wasn't wasted. I'd hoped by letting the one guy who surrendered live would mean he'd disable the turrets and robots, but apparently not.
I'll try giving my companion that high speed gun and some ammo, and hopefully I can figure out which weapon works best against the battle droids and turbolasers.
I can't wait to be Space Batman.
I honestly have no idea why, but it let me boost over all the traps and just open the door 😅
I ended up getting past the gun turrets in the Mantis quest by taking some damage reducing drugs and just running through. Didn't even notice the letter tiles.
Yeah I took Amp and ran past them lol, didn’t find out until later there was a puzzle
I just hacked the computer. Turned off the turrets. Lvl 3 security is awesome
Being able to change character build somewhat and name is awesome. So glad to see this as a feature.
Useful information!!!
Should be noted if you are trying to reroll affixes on the Mantis set, if you want to "bank" a set you like and keep rolling from the previous save, take the armor off the Mannequin. I left it on the mannequin and when i reloaded the save, the affixes had changed again. TO BE CLEAR: if you check the mannequin but DO NOT TAKE the armor and you reload your save, the affixes will still reroll.
I am on steam.
Also lockpicking if you select the digi pattern the ring will light up on what rings it will fit into. If its white it wont fit, if its blue it will fit. Its really helpful for multi level picking
That only works if you level up the digipicking skill
Legit? Huh.
Great Video, really helpfull
This helped, thank you!
heres another tip i dont see anyone talking about. open your menu, select your ship in the bottom left, and press f to open your cargo hold. typically this only allows you to see what items you have on your ship, but if you're within 250m of it you can also place stuff from your pockets onto the ship by cycling to your inventory. this helps a lot particularly with resources, because they're heavy and with one button you can move it all to your cargo hold. especially when exploring a new planet you don't need to go all the way back and through a loading screen. ive actually done this from inside a dungeon before as well, im not sure if that's intended though and the dungeon probably has to be within that same distance as well.
This is the best tip. Especially great when the dungeon you are in is close to your ship!
This is to prevent for you to have late game weapons early in the game I guess.
This video is so useful, thank you sir!
Anyone know how enemy armor (what I am calling the white bar on top of some enemies) works? Why do I sometimes seem to bypass it/hit red before white depletes?
I think some mods/ammo types disregard armor
5:30 you can hack the terminal to the right of the door and diable the turrets too, or use a speed boosting kit to run thru but it will work only if you start running from the 1st correct letter and be sure to press the button otherwise turrets will just turn and kill you. And btw turrets can be destroyed and give 60xp and items
I got through without using a speed boosting kit. I used the jet pack to boost forward past the first set of letters then ran the rest of the way. As soon as you hit that buzzer the door opens and the turrets stop.
I think the weapon tier system makes sense as far as allowing for decent weapon variety in the early game while also allowing for your favorite weapons to scale more into later game. The basic Kraken has very weak damage, but at tier 4, it can stay viable.
0:15 Using your ships thrusters is also VERY helpful in a fight, use the boost function (LS on controller) to close the distance with ships, when they turn use the RB to activate thrusters making you turn a LOT sharper, giving you the advantage when locking onto enemies
There is an important difference between the three healing items aside from the potency. Regular Med Packs have ZERO WEIGHT. All other healing items take up storage. I carry a few of the stronger packs around just in case, but 99% of the time I'm using plain old Med Packs because there is no limit to how many I can carry.
I have a pretty funny effect on my mantis boostpack, it causes attacking enemies to be knocked back and become staggered for a moment, which makes combat pretty easy, especially if you use it in tandem with grav push :D
Good tips. Definitely covered some tips others missed
Awesome video. Thank you
8:30 - You can use the chest right in front of the Research table in the basement - Which is at the front of the Lodge. It has infinite storage as well!
To power level Stealth and Concealment - You can (just like in Skyrim at the start in Helgen) go to the Medic next to the Lodge - And sneak attack him over and over. He can't die!
What's the medics name? I wanna do it lol
@@idoGutman22 He is the only Doc inside of the Reliant Medical building next to the Lodge. Give me a min and I'll update this with an "Edit" including his name.
Edit: His name is "Dr. Alexei Lebedev". Just hide behind him and attack him. He can't die - But remember that when anyone is "down" sneak attacks won't count. So let him stand back up.
Love that you’re straight to the point. No nonsense no annoying intro about random shite. Just quality content. Well done brother
I had no idea about the weapon levels. It explains so much now, thanks!
I’ve only watched about 3,129 vids on starfield and this is one of the best. Good stuff man!

Are there “of the sort” legendary enemies? I feel like I’ve encountered some with an extra health bar but the loot is sometimes good, mostly normal
There are enemies on the level of deathclaws, but you have to progress through the uc sysdef questline.
Bruuuuuuuuh subbed. Brilliant
I been playing early access ...I didnt know half of these tips. Going to use these for my evil pirate playthrough 😂 great video
Big tip for ship combat if the enemy ship is facing you boost passed them and set your speed to the middle of the white part of you speed guage and turn to face them as fast as you can this will get you on the ships tail where it cannot hit you of course other ship will still be able to but it's always better to on the tail of at least one enemy.
Good tip but also if you, as you turn to face them, hit the alt flight mode while strafe turning you will "drift turn" with thruster assist and make the turn faster getting the enemy ship in your sights with more alacrity. This "drift turn" is a maneuver I've used a lot and to great effect in Elite Dangerous so I was pleased to see it in Starfield.
@@OrpheusOverdrive True but that requires piloting skill level one and the thought this video was about early game tips so I didn't add this as its more a trick for people who have been in a few battles and of course have at least level on in piloting which only a few backgrounds get.
@@matthew-005 I mean he even mentions using thrusters/alt mode in the video, which also requires piloting level 1 so your point is moot.
@@HorribleMuttonChops I accidentally put "did" instead of "didn't" mention thrusters in my original comment which changed the meaning it's correct now.
It was supposed to say I didn't mention thrusters because I thought this video was for new player's who may not have a point in piloting so I didn't include advice about thrusters or anything more advanced as again I thought the video is for new players.
I could have included some real world maneuvers as you can pull off some similar jet fighter moves like "post stall maneuvers" but I doubt many people would understand.
You can also just shoot the bolts on those red doors with a normal gun
Perfect timing on this video. I last saved at those freaking turrets lol thanks Juice!
Saw that when i first did quest and made a video on it. It also works on regular manikins as well. Save before you open them, and itll be random items/effects/rarity.
I am playing on the hardest mode and its been so easy that I dont recommend using those overpowered stuff. I did give Sarah a Equinox with high fire rate without knowing and it indeed made her WAY more useful in combat. I was actually shocked to see her mow down some enemies by herself.
Everyone plays at a different skill level and some people have disabilities. I'll take whatever tips I can get.
Great tip video!
great video dude
Dont forget that your ship has a cargo hold that is accesible right to the left of the pilots chair ....when you get up from the chair look at the wall.
Upgraded ships have full armorys that you can store weapons...save the cargo hold for all the resources .
And stop stealing unless you have the pickpocket trait
You can also just drop anything you can't fit in the cargo. My ship has a storage room I can use to dump all my extra weapons I bring back to the ship. So far nothing has disappeared. Now if you customize your ship everything will be put back into your cargo so I'm not sure if it's already maxed out and you have stuff laying around what will happen.
I was wondering how the heck you access ship cargo. I was looking everywhere and didn’t see it
Three of these things the game directly tells you if you pay attention. The locking bolts you learn about in a story quest where breaking down one of the doors is an optional route. The Maneuvering thrusters is a skill you unlock under piloting and it tells you in the description how to use it. The highlighted middle part of the speed indicator being where you can turn more easily is one of the first things explained when you first start flying a spaceship. Some of the other tips were pretty good though!
I didn't know any of these, so id say they were helpful
Somehow, despite deliberately searching for something in game telling me how to use thrusters, I didn't find it
No they didnt explained the ship part
I've watched countless tips and tricks videos NONE come close to tgis one. Subscribed
Used to follow you religiously when I was hooked on FO76. Nice to see you also made the transition to Starfield.
Did anyone notice the companion dying at the start
G O N E .
For the turret section on the mantis quest you can also just pop an amp and run through the turrets before they hit you
There's also a computer you can hack at the end of the hall before the floor puzzle and you won't have to deal with turrets
