2. 🗑️ D Tier Augments: Free Bag, Combat MK1, Tactical MK1, Tactical MK3 Recovery
- ✅ Free Bag: Very low usability due to the lack of a secure pocket.
- ✅ Combat MK1, Tactical MK1: Inefficient due to low slot count and weight limit.
- ✅ Tactical MK3 Recovery: The number of slots is small at 16, and it consists of 4 quick slots, 3 augment slots, and 3 secure pockets. It has the effect of recovering 20 health for 10 seconds upon revival after being downed, but it receives a low rating due to the lack of slots and usability.

3. 🥉 C Tier Augments: Combat MK3 Aggressive, Loot MK3 Safekeeper, Tactical MK3 Revival
- ✅ Combat MK3 Aggressive: Recovers 2 health every 5 seconds, effect stops for 30 seconds upon taking damage. Supports even large shields in PVP, but has low usability because it only has 1 secure pocket.
- ✅ Loot MK3 Safekeeper: Weapons or shields can be stored in the secure pocket. In PVP, there is only 1 secure pocket and 4 quick slots, which is insufficient, and in PVE, there are only 2 augment slots, making it ambiguous and reducing usability.
- ✅ Tactical MK3 Revival: Only supports small shields, built-in resuscitation device (4 minute cooldown), 2 secure pockets. It seems to be for PVP, but its usability is low due to the lack of slots and small shield limitations.
