Egg Heist Chips
Chips are add-ons for your Egg Heist gear, and each one needs a matching socket. The Attack Amplifier takes Damage, Resistance and Skills chips, and the Protective Unit takes Protection, Load Expansion and Vigor chips. Everyone wants Heal Chips, which need a Skills socket and have a 60-second cooldown. Watch out: taking damage stops the heal. You find Chips during runs and in Lucky Chests. The developers have promised more ways to get Heal Chips.

Where Chips come from
- During a run: look for Chips as pickups on the island and in the Sanctum.
- Lucky Chests: you get one for each successful extraction, up to a daily limit, and it can hold Chips.
- More sources are coming. The developers have promised new ways to get Heal Chips, and Chips that improve melee (close-up) combat.
Illusory chips
Every chip has an Illusory twin with the same stats. Watch out: it only works in the match where you find it. You can't extract it when you leave, and it sells for nothing.
The gear the chips sit in
The Attack Amplifier adds Damage Amp: 20% at Uncommon, 40% at Rare, 60% at Epic and 80% at Legendary. The Protective Unit adds Damage Reduction: 10%, 40%, 70% and 90%. Attacks wear the amplifier down. Gear stops working when its durability reaches zero.
Energy stones you find on the island restore your gear's durability during a run. Higher-grade stones restore more. Repairs after a run cost Eggshell Coins. They also lower the gear's maximum durability.
Heal Chips need an amplifier with a Skills socket, so check the sockets before you buy gear. Use the heal behind cover, because any damage stops it.
