How to smuggle contraband?
In order to smuggle contrabands into the restricted area and prevent them from being detected by the scanners, players need to follow these steps:
- The easiest to prevent scanners to detect the contraband is to learn the Deception skill
- Deception skill prevents the scanner from detecting and has a success rate of 50% at max rank
- Players can find the deception skill in the second tier of the social skill tree.
- Players can also upgrade their ship and make it so that it bypasses the scanners.
- To make the scanners not detect the contraband, players need to place their contraband in the Ship’s cargo hold and not in the inventory.
- Lastly, players can also buy a scan jammer which increases the chances of not detecting the contraband from the player’s cargo ship.
The amount of contraband in the inventory also affects the chances of getting caught. The higher the number of contrabands, the higher the possibility of getting caught.
