What are LEMs?

Logistics Enhancement Modules are permanent character upgrades.

LEM Basics

LEMs (Logistics Enhancement Modules) are powerful upgrades that enhance your character's abilities. Once acquired, they provide permanent bonuses.

  • Acquisition: Found in abandoned bases, loot containers, and enemy drops
  • Slots: Limited number of LEM slots available
  • Stacking: Some LEMs stack, others have diminishing returns
  • Categories: Red (Combat), Blue (Movement), Green (Survival)

LEM Tiers

LEMs come in different power levels:

  • Basic: Standard effect (e.g., "Lifegiver")
  • Greater: Enhanced effect (e.g., "Greater Lifegiver")
  • Superior: Maximum effect (rare, late-game)
