Commerce Pods
Best Cryo Pods in Mass Effect: Andromeda
The Commerce pods in Mass Effect: Andromeda are all about making money and obtaining the best goods in the universe. If you’re into trading and purchasing everything you need, then this is the category you want to keep an eye on. Thankfully, there are no viability hurdles here, so if you love money, it’s time to collect skills.
Trade Capacity – This should be one of the first Cryo Pods you unlock when you first start. Personally, I’d say go for this right after unlocking Reconnaissance in the Military pods. This ups your Item Limit from 50 to 65. That may not sound like a lot, but it makes a world of difference while you’re out exploring a planet.
Grey Market Connections – Improves the prices when buying and selling items. You’ll be buying and selling quite a bit in the game, so may as well make the most of it.
Market Dominance – You can only unlock this pod after getting Grey Market Connections. It unlocks special inventories from merchants which tend to include some really good gear and rare materials. Perfect for those who aren’t really into research and development.
Financial Infrastructure I & II – Some may consider this one of the best, though I personally wouldn’t agree. It’s good if you find yourself spending tons of money for some reason, but you’ll only ever go broke if you don’t loot anything. Playing relatively normally, I always had over 10,000 Credits. But, if you hate looting and just want some quick and easy money, buying both of these upgrades will let you claim 750 Credits every 45 minutes.
These are the best ways to invest your AVP while playing. After obtaining these you can certainly go back and play cleanup, but these will give you a nice foundation to start building your story on.
