Suit Tech in Spider-Man 2 explained

To upgrade your Suit Tech, you need to level up by completing missions and activities and collecting XP. Once a piece of Suit Tech has been unlocked, you’ll need to spend City Tokens, Hero Tokens, and Tech Parts to acquire it. These resources aren’t easy to come by, so you’ll have to make smart choices during the early hours of the game when you’re relatively underpowered.

Your Suit Tech improves your skills, lets you hit harder, and increases your health. This is a convenient method that allows you to wear whatever suit you want without worrying about upgrades being attached to specific suits.

Best Suit Tech upgrades to get first in Spider-Man 2

If you want to get ahead fast, you’ll have to be strategic about which Suit Tech options you upgrade first. It is highly advised that you start with your Heath Suit Tech, as it’ll ensure you can stay in battles for longer. It’s worth focusing on Health alone until you unlock Spectacular Health 2 which gives you a maximum health of 150. You’ll have to reach level 14 to do this.

Next, you should upgrade your Focus Suit Tech. You’ll only need the first two upgrades initially. The first is Webbed Focus which increases your Focus when you attack webbed-up enemies. The second is Double Focus which gives you an additional Focus Bar. You can use two Focus Bars to perform Finishers on Brute enemies. This is an essential skill to quickly deal with the bigger foes.

The last essential Suit Tech upgrades are for your Damage. You’re advised to upgrade all the way up to Spectacular Damage 2 which is unlocked at level 14. With this Suit Tech, your base damage will be increased to 140%.

After these upgrades have been acquired, it’s less important what you grab next. You’ll probably want to grab some Traversal upgrades. They won’t help you much in combat, but they will make web-swinging through New York much more fun.
