Also, in the southeast corner is an old Xenogen camp, where you can salvage salable items (including the Atma Armor Mark I, which is at least a little better than your Dress Clothes).

V-KO (Medical Center) | Upgrade Your Starting Gear | Buy a Decent Shield Generator to replace your Cheap Shield Generator (if you started with a Cheap one).Carl (Crazy Carl’s) | Upgrade Your Starting Gear | Buy a Mark III Laser Pistol and a Shortsword, then sell your old pistol and knife at the Scrapyard Maintenance.I should also note that I only play as a female character, so some quests/options will differ if you have a male character. I’m sure I don’t have every single side quest here, so if anyone has any suggestions to fine-tune this guide, please chime in.
This is my gameplay guide, and I typically play as a Smuggler these days as I’ve discovered that avoiding being hit in the first place is better than 1,000 points of shielding.
