Starfield: Ship Power Allocation
Starfield Power Allocation allows you to distribute the available power among your various systems. A horizontal bar represents the total energy production, with six vertical indicators for each system requiring power:
- LAS
- BAL
- MSL
- ENG
- SHD
- GRV
Adjusting these bars during gameplay can alter your ship’s performance. Allocating more power to weapons – laser (LAS), ballistics (BAL), and missiles (MSL) – will naturally increase your damage output, but at the expense of other systems. Reducing power to the engines (ENG) will result in slower speeds, while decreasing shields (SHD) will leave you more vulnerable. Additionally, a lower-powered grav drive (GRV) will extend the time required to jump if you need to make a quick escape.
