There is a good place early Chapter 1 “Newcomers”. After replacing the streetcar and installing the dashboard, you will open the Flight Deck tram stop in Control of cargo hangars and trams. There is a shop as you walk into the tram stop and a bench across to medicine The door is at the far end.

There is also a good one near the beginning Chapter Seven “Into the Void” In the RIG room.

Upgrade the gun’s ability to refill the clip

The way this exploit works is to upgrade any weapon Eligibility With node in seat Section packs. Think of it like how leveling up an RPG character (in some games) restores health. (This is also a generally good way to get a few extra bullets in a pinch.)

This just becomes an exploit if you can somehow sell that free ammo, which is why…

However, if the mine doesn’t explode, you can pick it up by hitting R1 again to restore ammo in your inventory. If you don’t reload the Pulse Rifle, it will remain in your inventory in a pack that can be easily sold.

exploitation steps

Now that you understand why and how this exploit works, let’s talk about the actual steps you’ll need to go through. To get started, stand next to a bench, and:

Plant as many Proximity Mines as you have ammo (without reloading) and convert it back into ammo with R1. It’s fine to leave that ammo on the floor.
Head to the bench and Reset everyone The nodes on the Pulse Rifle (if you upgrade them at all). Upgrade your first node – it’s just a capacity increase – to refill your segment.
Turn that clip of free ammo into Proximity Mines and turn it back into collectible ammo (you can also leave it on the ground).
Go to the Bench and upgrade to the next capacity slot, and refill your clip again.
Repeat steps 3 and 4 until you run out of capacity upgrades (or nodes).
If you have the cash on hand, reset all nodes again and repeat the process.
When you run out of money to reset, pick up all your free ammo and take it back to the shop. Sell them all.
Lather, rinse, and repeat to your heart’s content.

Going from zero bullets, sprinting through the Pulse Rifle’s five default capacity upgrades (requires seven nodes), then selling free ammo will net you 8750 credit hours. Subtract the 5,000 credits you spent to reset the contract, and away you go 2,750 credit hours in profit.

Once you’ve built up a little bit of funding, you’ll have enough to reset your nodes a few times. This makes the process of returning to the store to sell your free bullets more efficient since you will have plenty of bullets. Each time you can reset all nodes, you will get an additional 2750 per flight.
