How to play Rivet

  • Build turrets in the sector you farm, then pop Overclock Field next to them.
  • Salvager's extra Scrap pays for the Command tree's Scrap branch.
  • Double Ricochet (Mastery 2) is excellent in crowded Elite Combat.

Recommended token: Bronze 1 (#5 in the unlock order). Turrets have been open since Bronze 3, and his +30% Scrap and faster turrets feed the Command tree's Scrap branch. Bounce hits are good in Elite Combat.
