But I don't want to wear a mining helmet!

In the dark world of Navezgane, you can never have too much light. The nights can get extremely dark, and carrying a torch while trying to mine isn't fun. Miming helmets are great if you find one, but you are limited to one helmet. The Helmet Light Mod can turn any helmet into a flashlight. Having a light, you don't have to carry a fantastic convenience.

Why Helmet Light Mod is fun:

  • Can attach to any helmet
  • Can be found via looting or the trader
  • It can also be crafted with Forged Steel, Scrap Polymers, Duct Tape, Flashlight, and Sewing Kit after reading the schematic or Art of Mining Vol.7

I can take it from here.

You can never shoot fast enough when a feral is running at you. The worst part is when you need to reload while it's hunting you. The Bandolier Mod will allow you to reload your guns faster so you can spend more time nailing that perfect headshot. It can be equipped to your chest or leg armor.

Why Bandolier Mod is a must-have:

  • Faster reloading for your guns
  • It can be found while scavenging, or if you're lucky, the trader may have one to sell.
  • Craft this bad boy with Forged Steel, Scrap Polymers, Duct Tape, Glue, and Sewing Kit after you read the Bandolier Schematic.

I think I can jump off of that!

OK, so this might just be me, but I also end up running over a cliff or running to fast down a hill and getting too much air. I have also died this way too. While it’s not fun to admit, at least there is an answer to this problem. The Impact Bracing Mod will help your character to take less damage while falling. 

Why Impact Bracing Mod will help you out:

  • Reduce damage taken when falling
  • Can be found while scavenging
  • Crafting is also an option using Forged steel, duct tape, mechanical parts, spring, and sewing kit at a workbench once you have read the schematic.
