Loadout & Stats

Your loadout is the backbone of both offense and survivability.

Stat Model

• Attack = primary weapon + secondary weapon + goons
• Defense = armor defense + goons
• Risk = primary weapon risk + secondary weapon risk

Goons add +1 attack and +1 defense each.

The multiplayer loadout system supports:

• Primary weapon slot
• Secondary weapon slot
• Armor slot
• Goon count

Goons

• Cost per goon: GYD 1,000
• Max goons: 20

Goons in Events and PvP

• Scrape event: if you have goons, robbery is prevented but 1 goon is lost.
• Successful mug against you: you lose 1 goon if you have any.
• Failed mug by you: 50% chance to lose 1 goon if you have any.

Build Archetypes

Early Economy Build

• Low-cost weapon + moderate armor + few goons
• Goal: survive events while compounding trade cycles

Aggressive Hunter Build

• Higher weapon attack + enough goons for consistency
• Goal: farm profitable mug opportunities
• Tradeoff: risk/heat rises, CANU pressure increases

Defensive Capital Build

• Heavy armor + goon stack + controlled weapon risk
• Goal: protect inventory/cash against raids and mugging

Upgrade Priority

1. Get off zero weapon quickly (cheap attack gain).
2. Add armor before over-investing in high-risk guns.
3. Scale goons gradually to balance attack/defense.
4. Add a secondary weapon only when the extra heat is worth the stat gain.
5. Upgrade weapon tiers when your route profit can absorb heat.

Common Mistakes

• Overbuying high-risk weapons too early
• Ignoring armor while carrying large inventories
• Running high bounty + high weapon risk with no banking discipline
• Treating goons as permanent (they are consumable over time)

Practical Rule

Your best loadout is the one that protects your current strategy:

• Trader-heavy sessions need survivability first.
• PvP-heavy sessions need reliable attack and spare inventory space.
• Leaderboard defense sessions need low volatility and strong protection.
