Plan a build for your next Tour

This planner recommends priorities and effect families from launch mechanics. It covers the three Campaign speeder classes; Podracers use a different setup. Recommendations are a starting plan, not a measured fastest build.

Your next Tour

Choose options you have unlocked. Use the result while reading the rewards offered in your Tour.

Build direction

Survivor · Landspeeder

Your style and goal share a focus. Keep the offered Parts aimed at that focus.

Upgrade priorities
CorneringResilience
Abilities to compare
Shield · Autopilot · Starting ability: Shield
Look for these Part effects
Protection or recovery effects whose trigger you can repeat safely.
Watch for a mismatch
Collision triggers when you are still learning to stay off the walls.
Vehicle handling
Use its drift through corners; add Cornering before relying on long Ramjet straights.
Try this next event
Finish the next event with a lower crash count before adding more boost power.

Build planning decisions

QuestionAnswer
Should I copy a fixed four-Part build?Compare the Parts actually offered in your Tour. Keep a compatible trigger and effect even when the exact item differs.
Should I build for combat or clean racing?Choose the one your style and habits support. Frequent impacts can cancel clean-racing benefits.
Should I spend on energy or boost?Energy matters when your equipped abilities solve a current problem; otherwise fix boost or handling first.
