10Precious Stuff Magnet

Bring Items To Your Body.

Taking out the various wildlife on the planet leaves behind certain resources and materials for you to collect. To save some time gathering these dropped goods, you should obtain this upgrade as soon as possible. Sucking up all kinds of important elements is vital, especially so you may focus on the action while haphazardly gathering items.

The Precious Stuff Magnet may not be the most important or game-changing upgrade, but the small bonus of bringing items to you makes it a convenient way to help you gather items left on the ground for too long.

9Advanced Battery

Increase Your Ammo Count.

In Journey To The Savage Planet, an advanced battery translates to ammo capacity before you need to reload. This is pretty important as reloading takes time, and you’ll need to be sure that you’re either safe from trouble or the enemies are already down. With these battery upgrades, you are less likely to be caught without ammunition in a fight.

These upgrades have multiple levels and can all make any weapon powerful. Combined with improved damage upgrades, this can be exactly what you need to turn an intimidating encounter into pure overkill.

8Fast Reload

Reloading during fighting situations puts you in a dangerous position of getting attacked or losing a valuable opening. A faster reload upgrade mitigates the risks you would deal with and brings you back into the fight much faster. There’s only one level for the upgrade, but it balances out for the many levels you have for Advanced Battery.

you may obtain this upgrade early on, giving you that quick shooting edge you’d need in most battles. If you gain enough battery upgrades, this can be considered obsolete down the road but every advantage is worth it.

7Orange Goo Detector Upgrade

Easily Find The Orange Goo With Your Visor

The Orange Goo is a curious alien resource that you may consume for stamina and health. There are 100 to find in the world, and consuming 60 of them should max out what you can get for stamina and health. The Orange Goo Detector upgrade can help you uncover all of them.

With the additional boosts to your stamina and health, getting this upgrade to help you find these resources will help you get through the challenging progression of your journey on the planet.

6Alloy Detector Upgrade

Easily Find The Alien Alloy With Your Visor

Many of your upgrades require certain materials like aluminum and carbon. One of the bigger materials you’d need for the best upgrades is alloy and to help seek it out, it’s much easier to get yourself the Alloy Detector. This addition to your visor ensures that it’s easy to discover these things.

Alloy is important for every major upgrade option in your playthrough’s middle and later sections.They also tend to be quite challenging to find without the detector. Along with the Orange Goo Detector Upgrade, you will need to track down these important resources for endgame completion.

5Supercharged Shot

Charge Up A Hefty Shot For Maximum Damage

You’ll want a tougher, more damaging blast from your handy guns as your aim improves versus the local wildlife. To help with this improvement, look no further than the Supercharged Shot upgrade for your weapons. After charging one shot with a well-aimed blow, you’re able to take down any of the critters giving you trouble.

There is just one thing to consider: make sure you don’t miss. The cooldown can put you in danger, especially if the enemy manages to escape or survive the attack. Boosting your attack power can be done with the Improved Damage upgrade you can apply to the weapons. It’s advised to combine these in case you face a combination of fast, fragile critters and slow, tough monsters.

4Best Utility Belt

Get The Most Space For Your Inventory

When you start out on this fun ride, your basic inventory belt is pretty restrictive. As you progress, you’ll encounter more items and materials, and you’ll need to work on getting inventory space for them. Upgrading your belt capacity is vital in your continued exploration of the planet.

There are two main upgrade levels for your belt, Better and Best Utility Belt, and they both permanently increase your inventory. From the humble starting number of three items, these upgrades will ensure that you can carry five to ten items and make your job of gathering and making things much easier.

3Jump Thrusters

Jetpack Your Way Through The Wild World Of AR-Y 26

One of the manytraditional upgrades for many Metroidvania experiences, including Metroid Prime,the Jump Thrusters serve as your double jump feature, and they change the way you traverse the different locations in AR-Y 26. Opening up traversal is vital for completing exploration and discovering new items to get and enemies to take on.

The Jump Thrusters can be upgraded even further, letting you triple and quadruple jump to further levels. That last upgrade is considered a ‘game-breaker’ since, by that point, jumping and boosting around is a bit overkill.

2Improved Damage

Deliver A Mean Punch For Every Shot

Better attack power for your weapons means beating enemies faster and using less ammo to do it. The enemies and bosses you will find and fight can be very dangerous, so you’d want as much firepower as possible. Improving your firepower combined with faster reloads, and several other weapon-based upgrades can greatly increase the upgrades' effectiveness.

There are four levels for your damage upgrades, and they stack together for each weapon you have. The last two levels of the upgrades are available to you once you rank up in the game, and the third level is available when you officially become an Explorer.

1Health Booster

Increasing Max Health To Withstand The Savage Planet

You will get hit a lot while dealing with the beasts of your savage worlds. To avoid dying gruesomely from these fiendish foes, boosting your health is the best thing to focus on for upgrades. Once you begin facing the more dangerous monsters, you’ll want more health than you’re left with.

You can also obtain regional health increases and level-ups by consuming the orange goo that you find throughout the world. This gross orange substance also increases your stamina. There is a maximum point for the goo, but you’re also able to boost your health with these upgrades.
