Passives

Passive icon

Passives are modifiers unique to each ship subclass, providing a beneficial passive effect, usually related to the ship's ULT, Special, or some other unique benefit.

The amount of passives a ship has depends on its Tier:

• Tier I(+) - 1 passive
• Tier II(+) - 2 passives
• Tier III(+) - 3 passives
• Tier IV - 4 passives

Passives can be rerolled with Tareen's Ship Dealer perk at level 3. In the ship dealer menu, pressing "Menu Action 3" (X by default on PC) will generate a new combination of passives for the selected ship. Pressing it again will switch back to the old set of passives. Once a ship is bought, the passives cannot be changed again. However, it is possible to sell a bought ship back to a ship dealer (exchanging it for another), which will then put it in the ship dealer's current stock. The passives can then be rerolled and the ship bought back again.
