Consumables are single-use items that provide temporary buffs or utility in combat. These include health packs, shield boosts, and various ammo types (e.g., Incendiary, Cryo). Always keep a good stock of consumables, especially for challenging encounters. Augmentations, as mentioned before, are permanent modifications applied to crafted weapons and armor. They can drastically alter an item's performance, adding elemental damage, unique firing modes, or defensive properties. Collect and experiment with different augmentations to find powerful combinations.
