NPC factions
Who you are fighting in a site decides your tank and your ammo. Pick a faction for how to fight it and every site it runs.

| Rogue Drones | 40 | EM / Thermal | Varies by site — low-tier lean EM/Thermal, high-tier lean Explosive/Kinetic |
| Sleepers | 83 | No weak spot: every Sleeper hull has flat resists, so pick ammo on range and application, not damage type | EM (26%) / Thermal (26%) / Kinetic (24%) / Explosive (24%) |
| Drifters | 9 | Thermal on the shield (20% resist) and EM on the armour (0% resist) | EM (25%) / Thermal (25%) / Kinetic (25%) / Explosive (25%) |
