Survey Device

​

Survey Device is a Multi-tool technology and an upgrade to the Analysis Visor. It enables the Surveying Mode, a real-time terrain analysis to the scanning array.

Scanner

​

Used to discover resources and points of interest.

Waveform Recycler

-20% Recharge Time
+11% Scan Radius

Waveform Recycler is a technology that increases the scan radius and decreases the recharge time of the Scanner.
It needs to be installed in a Multi-tool inventory slot for it to take effect.

Scan Harmoniser

​

Allows detection of nearby cloaked Autophage NPCs.

Polyphonic Core

​

Allows detection of nearby cloaked Autophage NPCs & Harmonic Camps.

Mining Beam

​

The default weapon installed on the multi-tool and it is an essential accessory used to expose and capture elements within planetary rock formations and vegetation. If not used carefully, the Mining Beam may result in sentinel scrutiny and aggression.Getting the mining beam closer to overheat will make it deal more damage.

Hijacked Laser

​

This Multi-Tool is made with material and methods known to no conventional manufacturer, its core a unfathomable array of impossible optics and glassy foam. Nonetheless, there is a layer of recognisable technology. It shows signs of having been tampered with by an unknown craftsman, who has repurposed its scanner array into a high-powered mining laser
Powered by Carbon-based Elements.

Runic Lens

Plasma Resonator

+6% Mining Speed
+5% Heat Dispersion

Plasma Resonator is a technology that augments the Mining Beam, a Multi-tool weapon.

Boltcaster

​

The Boltcaster is an attachment for the multi-tool which uses Projectile Ammunition to shoot damaging energy bolts at threats. It's perfect for defending against hostile lifeforms and Sentinels.

Boltcaster SM

+1% Damage
+21% Fire Rate
+8.0 Clip Size

Boltcaster SM is a technology that augments the Boltcaster, a Multi-tool weapon.

Barrel Ioniser

The Blaze Javelin delivers instantaneous damage on targets.

Mass Accelerator

+20% Damage

Mass Accelerator is a Multi-tool upgrade which increases the damage of the Blaze Javelin at full charge (and, by extension, at partial charge as well).

Waveform Oscillator

+ Electrical Damage

Adds a brief stunning effect to targets with the Blaze Javelin.

Pulse Spitter

Damage - 34 x3
Mining Power - 7 x3

Scatter Blaster

Damage Potential - 1070.7
Damage - 150 x8
Mining Power - 30 x8

This shotgun-style weapon fires 8 projectiles at once in a wide spread, making it most effective in close range encounters such as charging animals or attacks by Sentinel Quads. It allows multiple targets to be damaged at once, but requires a reload after every three shots.

Shell Greaser

-15% Reload Time

Shell Greaser is a technology that augments the Scatter Blaster, a Multi-tool weapon.

Neutron Cannon

​

A charged energy weapon that does not use projectile ammunition, dealing short-range explosive damage in a fast-moving cone of destruction.

P-Field Compressor

+2.0 Ion Spheres Created
+22% Ion Sphere Speed

Adds additional Ion Spheres and bonus Sphere speed.

Incinerator

​

The Incinerator is a Multi-tool weapon which can currently not be obtained by normal means, but comes pre-installed on many multi-tools.
It is significantly overpowered against all enemies in the game & also affects fauna.

Solar Ray

​

The Solar Ray is a Multi-tool "weapon" acquired in Starbirth which allows conversion of metal deposits into Liquid Sun.

Animus Beam

​

A blue variant of the Mining Beam, its primary purpose is the extraction of Fragmented Qualia from fauna, a lethal process which forfeits normal creature resources such as Mordite and cooking ingredients.

Terrain Manipulator

​

The Terrain Manipulator is an attachment for the multi-tool which allows alterations to planetary terrain, both destruction and creation.

Plasma Launcher

+ 21% Damage to Stunned Entities

Grants Extra damage against stunned enemies.

Combat Scope

​

Weapon Precision Enhancement.

Personal Forcefield

​

Adds a deployable shield as an alt-fire function to Multi-tool weapons. This shield nullifies all ranged attacks coming from the front, but disables weapon usage and incurs a heavy drain on Life Support while active (the percentage value associated with the shield in the heads-up display indicates how much Life Support is left).

Cloaking Device

+ Stealth

Causes the user to become temporarily invisible, allowing rapid escape from Sentinel forces, or for a quick tactical repositioning.
