Syndicate Items

These are the items that Traitors and Nuclear_Operative can purchase through their uplink.

Your Uplink

Traitors by default have a PDA serve as their uplink. This can be changed through game preferences into a headset or a pen .

The shop page is hidden for stealth purposes, and to unlock it you will need to either enter the special code you receive roundstart as your PDA's custom ringtone, select a special frequency on your special headset, or click you special pen, whichever you chose as your preference.

Nuclear operatives have a radio as uplink which starts unlocked, and can be detonated as an impromptu bomb if money is tight.


The shop interface is divided into categories. Traitors start with 20 TeleCrystals, always, while operatives receive roughly 10 Crystals for each 10 crewmembers on the station, and receive extra if they declare war on Nanotrasen.

Some items are very expensive, sometimes enough to be impossible to purchase. You can obtain more telecrystals from other traitors, or give yours away. How? In the category "bundles and telecrystals" you can "buy" TeleCrystals to eject them from your uplink, and reinsert them into any unlocked uplink. All syndicate agents know codewords with which to recognize eachother on the station, but remember that traitors are not required to cooperate: A supersurplus crate contains a *lot* of gear, but some people can still be greedy and stab you in the back while you check the contents. Afterall, why have only one double esword when you could have two? Or three?

If you don't want to chance an encounter in disposals with fishy individuals, all hope is not lost: there still are discounts: Up to three items, unique for each traitor, can be purchased once each for a randomly discounted price. Cheaper items get discounted more often and discounts tend to average around 50% off, but every once in a while you can hit the jackpot and get a revolver for 80% off. Nuclear operatives get discounts too both individually as well as a team: team discounted items have unlimited supply, you can always buy more as long as you have TC left. Woe to any station that is besieged by operatives with discounted explosives, assault cyborgs or mechs.


Contract Kit

"Contract Kit"
"Contract Kit"
Found in: Ordered via syndicate uplink, costs 20 telecrystals.
Used for: Completing kidnapping contracts for TC-rewards.
Strategy: A high risk, high reward choice for a traitor who wants a real challenge.
Description
20+ players only
The Syndicate have a number of urgent contracts for you to take on, become a contractor and complete them for TC and cash payments. Upon purchase, you'll be granted your own contract uplink embedded within a supplied tablet computer. Additionally, you'll be granted contractor gear to help with your mission. Comes supplied with the tablet, a specialist contractor space suit, chameleon jumpsuit and mask, agent card, three randomly selected low cost items, and a unique, electrified baton. Can include items from nuke ops.

Use the new contract uplink to select a contract, and bring the assigned target dead or alive to the designated drop off location. Call for the extraction pod and send them off for your payment, with much higher rewards for keeping them alive. Extracted targets will be sent to the ninja jail and held for ransom by the Syndicate, alerting the crew after a small delay. Ransom will be payed automatically by Nanotrasen, taking an amount of the station budget to offset the cost. These targets will later be returned to the station, with even targets brought and extracted dead being returned to the crew. The contractor always earns a portion of the ransom when they're extracted into their equipped ID.

Victims that're extracted will have their items stored until they're brought back, with their items coming along with the pod they're dropped with. Extracted targets always get dropped back in the same area they were launched from.

Aborting or completing contracts will make them unavailable to take on again, so be mindful of this when choosing which target to pick. Extraction will come when requested, but only if both yourself and the target is inside the dropoff location.

The average for the total TC you can earn with this kit is around 34 TC, with the minimum never being below 30, should you extract all your targets alive. This is on top of the actual value this kit gives you initially, making this an incredibly viable choice if you can justify a weaker early game, and feel up to the challenge.

Currently, when first assigning yourself to the uplink, you'll always be given 6 contracts.

Unique items are available to purchase with "Contractor Rep" through the available Hub inside the uplink. You acquire two Rep per completed contract, with five different purchases available:

  • Contract Reroll - 2 Rep: Request a reroll of your current contract list. Will generate a new target, payment, and dropoff for the contracts you currently have available.
  • Contractor Pinpointer - 1 Rep: A pinpointer that only activates for its owner, which is the first person to activate it. Locks on to crew on the same z-level, ignoring suit sensors, but is much less accurate. Will show you're at the location when within ~25 units.
  • Fulton Extraction Kit - 1 Rep: Gives both a beacon and fulton kit to move targets/items across the station. Place the beacon down, and use the bag in hand to link it. Using the bag on items and crew will send them to the beacon. They must be outside - so in space or on lavaland - to be sent to the beacon.
  • Reinforcements - 2 Rep: Call in a Syndicate agent to help you with your mission. Role is polled to ghosts, and comes with very basic items and their own 0 TC uplink. When an agent is found, they'll be sent via pod, so be sure to call when by yourself.
  • Blackout - 3 Rep: Cuts station power for a short duration.

Contractor Baton

This baton comes in every contract kit. If extended and used on someone when not on harm intent it causes 1.5 seconds of knockdown and 85 stamina damage, which means it will stamcrit someone with 2 hits. Has a 2.5 second cooldown between non-harm hits. Fits in a pocket when retracted. Use in hand to extend or retract. Unlike other batons, this one works on cyborgs.
