Let's be real, diving into the Prismverse Scenario of Once Human can feel like being a tiny fish thrown into a shark tank with lasers. It's chaos, glorious chaos, where PvP and PvE players clash in epic faction wars. But hey, you don't have to be chum! The key to not just surviving but thriving lies in picking the right specializations—those fancy bonuses that don't care if you're a Rosetta or a Mayfly. Whether you're a gatherer who'd rather pick flowers than pick fights, or a raider who lives for the boom, there's a perfect setup waiting for you. Forget getting overwhelmed by base raids and prism scrambles; it's time to optimize your playstyle and become a legend in the Prismverse.

10. Elysium Coherence Injection: The Homebody's Best Friend

Just want to chill and defend the homestead? The Elysium Injection is your new bestie. This bad boy rewards you for, well, not moving. Perfect for the gatherer or defense squad member who's guarding the main purification base. It gives you a nice tactical item damage boost, which is basically your permission slip to blow up any sneaky enemy camps setting up shop too close for comfort. No Atomic Snail Deviation for that fancy Aero Leap potion? No sweat! The Deviant Fragment boost makes your turrets and traps meaner, turning your base into a fortress that says 'try me' to any invaders. Plus, that PSI intensity bump? Chef's kiss for elemental and lightning builds—zap those trespassers into next week!

9. Primary Module: Focus Module - The Passive Money Printer

Listen up, industrialists! If your idea of a good time is setting up a passive resource empire, the Focus Module with Oil Processing is your golden ticket. It lets you mass produce Stardust Source, which is basically the lifeblood of your hive. More Stardust means more Tungsten AP ammo, which means more happy faction-mates. Since everyone and their mother is fighting over the three available Blackfell Oil Fields, having a drone that passively farms Barreled Crude Oil is a game-changer. Turn that crude into Portable Mixed Fuel or the premium stuff without breaking a sweat. It's like having your own little oil baron in your pocket.

8. Primary Module: Speedy Module - Zoom Zoom!

Gotta go fast? The Speedy Module is here to help you define your role by... well, speeding it up. For gatherers, it's a dream—sprint through contested zones like the wind, hoarding Aluminum, Steel, and Tungsten before anyone knows what hit 'em. For the main strike teams, that Tactical Item damage bonus is non-negotiable for breaking walls or raiding bases. Want to get fancy? Pair it with an Explorer drone for even more zoom. You can literally leap off cliffs and glide right onto enemy bases. Talk about making an entrance!

7. Primary Module: Support Module - The Team Player

The Support Module is the Swiss Army knife of modules, fantastic for any drone. In the heat of a PvP battle, invisibility can help you clutch one-shot kill situations. Imagine a Territory Drone popping out of nowhere for the win. Combine that with a Firepower Drone's healing boost from allies, and your base defense becomes a marathon, not a sprint—fewer respawns, more glory. The Gathering drone gets a sweet perk too, converting ores into Ingots on the spot, saving you precious charcoal and acid. And let's not forget the Explorer drone: its invisible state is perfect for reconnaissance missions. Sneak around, gather intel, and feed info to your raid leaders to plan the perfect attack. Knowledge is power, and invisibility is its delivery system.

6. Secondary Module: Healing Module - The Field Repair Kit

Don't you hate it when your gear breaks in the middle of nowhere, and you're miles from a repair bench? The Healing Module isn't heavy on your inventory and is a lifesaver. The materials for it—Adhesives, Metal Scraps, Rubber—are a dime a dozen in Silos and the overworld. For PvE players who might not have the Artisan's Touch Deviation, this module is a godsend. No more frantic teleports back to base mid-mission. Just craft it onto your drones, and voilà, instant field repairs. It's the complimentary bonus you never knew you needed.

5. Secondary Module: Invisible Module - Now You See Me...

Defending a territory or leading a raid? The Invisible Module is a game-changer. Let's face it, drones are squishy and can be one-shot by a sneeze from the enemy. But if they can't see your drone model... well, good luck hitting it! The hitbox is still there, but the drone is completely gone from sight. If you've got Stardust sources to spare, this is a no-brainer investment. It turns your drones into ghostly scouts or elusive defenders.

4. Speed Coherence Injection - For the Aggressive Souls

Are you the type who charges in first and asks questions later? The Speed Coherence Injection was made for you, especially the main strike or raid teams. It syncs perfectly with tanky PvP armor builds (which are totally different from your cushy PvE gear). This injection rewards movement, giving you coherence points on the go and the agility to relocate siege bases in a flash or pounce on enemy defenses before they know what's happening. It's all about maintaining momentum and pressure.

3. Nurture Coherence Injection - The Gatherer's Delight

Calling all resource hoarders! In the Prismverse, Mayfly gathering perks have a slight edge, offering exponential boosts to farming. The Nurture Injection makes every gathering run a festival. You get percentage yield perks on most fragments and even provide an area-wide Barreled Crude Oil bonus for your allies. It turns a simple farming trip into a resource bonanza for the whole team. More loot for everyone!

2. Injection Genes - Supercharge Your Juice

Welcome to the late game, where you can genetically modify your injections for even more oomph. While everyone raves about Lightning and Bastille Genes, don't sleep on others like Extreme (for gathering) or Proliferation (for territory defense). The golden rule? Choose the Gene according to your role. Passive genes for the builders and defenders, aggressive genes for the wreckers and raiders. It's about specializing your power-up to match your job in the hive.

1. Gene Fabrics - The Non-Negotiable Endgame Gear

This isn't a suggestion; it's a commandment for the late game: Always use Gene Fabrics on your gear. But a word of caution about the popular Lightning Gene—it's a double-edged sword. It targets an attacker, not an opposing faction member. So, if you accidentally hit yourself with a Molotov (hey, it happens), the lightning will spawn on you and could kill a team member standing nearby. Yikes! As a savvy player in 2025, a balanced approach works wonders. Many are rocking a mix, like one Lightning Gene Fabric paired with five Bastille Genes for that sweet, sweet durability boost. It's about smart power, not just raw power.
