They say you are who you hang out with…
With the above statement in place, it’s always worth it to find the best members possible…
Whether it’s to aid in combat, management or just to enjoy their company. If it makes your experience better, it is worth pursuing.
Here are the unique crew members we have found thus far. Crew or companions are unique NPCs that you can recruit to join you in your journey throughout the galaxy.
They can aid you in battles by joining you when you’re off the ship. You can also assign them to specific outposts or to your ship where they will have a positive impact based on the skills they provide.
Sarah for example is one of the earliest crew members you get. Her skills are Astrodynamics 4, Lasers 3, Leadership 2, and Botany 1. Which means she buffs these areas wherever she is assigned to. Whether it is an outpost or your Home ship.
Crew can only be assigned to your active/home ship.
With that said and done, let’s move on to our Unique list of Crew members. Do note these are the ones we have found thus far. There may be more out there, and if we come across them, we will be sure to update this guide.
