## Scavenging

Normal Scavenging loot table works off of a group system. Out of every group only ONE item can be chosen (or lack thereof). For an example, you can either get Ice or Regolith, you can't get both.
From the plot view, you can scavenge for resources needed. Just press on the scavenging button on the bottom.

Scavenging consumes one stamina and tool power which can be replenished by using a full power cell in the Actions Menu! You eventually need to eat and drink to replenish that energy!

* Scavenging consumes a resource: Scavenging Tool Power. This resource is designed to stay between 1 and 100.
* An action can be used to refill 20 Scavenging Tool Power by consuming the power of 1  Full Power Cell.

You never know what you might get! You'll at least get some needed resources, like ice and regolith, but sometimes you find a power cell just lying around. You will also get some  Scavenging XP for scavenging.

* *Currently, it doesn't matter where you scavenge. Later on, this may change.*

## Advanced Scavenging

Advanced scavenging can be done by clicking on the ADV. SCAVENGE button. However, in order to preform advanced scavenging you'll need Scavenging Tools. Scavenging tools can be bought and obtained like any other Tool.

Every advanced scavenge will use 1  Scavenging Tool, as well as 1  Stamina and 1 Scavenging Tool Power.
Advanced scavenging will give different (and typically better) rewards than normal scavenging that scale up with your level.

Advanced Scavenging loot is broken up into categories, which are unlocked by having higher scavenging skill. Scavenging can be leveled up through the Training Hall.

### Advanced Scavenging Loot Tiers

Players can either buy a Keycard from the shop, find one in the game (or marketplace) or they can craft a Keyjammer and attempt to open the Lockbox.

Please note that using a Keyjammer has a chance of success, a chance of failure, and a chance that the Lockbox will be broken in the attempt. If you don’t want to risk it, use a Keycard!

Note: Keyjammers will be released shortly after the scavenging update has gone live.
