Prawn suit modules
What modules do you use the most in your prawn suit?

All of them, except the torpedo and propulsion arms.

The hull reinforcement module is completely useless in the Prawn, so no reason to ever use that one. Never found much use for the engine efficiency module either with much better choices available.

If I'm drilling for resources on surface biomes, I typically just go with 4 storage modules and two drill arms. In the Lost River/final areas, I'll swap in the depth module and propulsion jets and change one of the drill arms for a grapple arm. I keep the thermal charge module in the Prawn's storage but only equip it if needed.

Jump and grapple mostly, I like using the prawn like a spider suit in caves.

To me the 3 essentials are Grapple, Mining and Jump.

1) Unless you stay near the surface you shouldn't even use the Prawn without the Grapple arm. For example if you drop down to the Jelly caves, you'll possibly die of thirst before finding your way back up without the grapple. This goes for some other deeper areas.

2) Mining arm because that's how you find most minerals from Lost River onwards

3) Jump Jet improves Prawn navigation by an amazing degree, it actually makes it pleasant to use. Spiderman swinging from the cave ceiling as RequiemsRose said.

The heat recharge seemed good in theory but having a spare cell in your inventory is probably a better use of upgrade slots.

I also installed a mod to add a sonar like on the Seamoth, but that doesn't count.

If you drop in the Jellyshroom Caves with the Prawn, you can just build a few foundations or I-tubes to use as jumping platforms to get back out. I'll sometimes do this even I have he grapple/jets if I plan on harvesting the nodes down there. Throw a growbed with creepvines on one of the platforms and you'll always know exactly where the cave exit is, even from a far distance.

Well obviously the depth module, but I'm boring so all I use besides that is the drill arm. The drill arm is stupidly useful in both combat and resource gathering, I once killed a reaper using it, and the depth module is practically required to beat the game unless you want to use a cyclops only.
