Match your shield to your augment

Augments define recorded backpack, quick-use and safe-pocket capacities, as well as a weight limit.

Our advice: start with what you need to bring out, then decide how much room you need to leave for loot.

More slots do not automatically make a kit better if the equipment is difficult to replace.

Healing, grenade, trinket and utility slots are recorded separately from the backpack and quick-use slots.

They do not add unrestricted inventory space.

The planner labels each section and keeps overflow visible when you switch to an augment with fewer slots.

Save a second build with equipment you can replace.

Our advice: use separate names for a quest run and an equipment-heavy run so you do not accidentally carry an expensive kit into a simple collection task.

Safe-pocket item eligibility still needs an in-game check.

The equipped movement penalty fell from 15% to 10%, and durability decay from 0.20 to 0.15 in update 2.0.

These are separate properties: the change does not turn historical shield charge or mitigation figures into newly verified values.

Match the shield to your recorded augment compatibility and leave room for recovery supplies.
