Accessories in Storage Hunters: Open World are collectible items that provide stat bonuses and utility benefits to your character. With 16 accessories spanning five rarity tiers from Common to Mythic, knowing which ones to pursue and how to acquire them can give you a meaningful edge in auctions, hauling, and selling. This guide covers the best accessories in the game, their rarity tiers, stat bonuses, and strategies for building your accessory collection.
How Accessories Work in Storage Hunters: Open World
Accessories are equippable items that provide passive bonuses to your character. Each accessory has a rarity tier that determines the strength of its bonus and how difficult it is to obtain. You can equip accessories to enhance your gameplay in various ways, from improving hauling efficiency to increasing selling speed.
Accessory Rarity Tiers
| Tier | Rarity | Bonus Quality | Availability |
|---|---|---|---|
| S | Mythic | High Stats | Extremely rare |
| S | Legendary | Strong Utility | Very rare |
| A | Epic | Good Boost | Rare |
| B | Rare | Moderate | Uncommon |
| C | Common | Basic | Frequent |
The accessory system follows the same S > A > B > C tier structure used throughout the game. Higher-tier accessories provide stronger bonuses but are significantly harder to find.
All Accessory Tiers Explained
S-Tier Accessories (Mythic and Legendary)
S-Tier accessories are the most powerful in the game. They provide high stat bonuses and strong utility that can meaningfully change your gameplay experience.
Mythic Accessories
| Attribute | Detail |
|---|---|
| Tier | S |
| Rarity | Mythic |
| Bonus | High Stats |
| Availability | Extremely rare, typically from special containers or quests |
Mythic accessories are the rarest accessories in Storage Hunters: Open World. They provide the highest stat bonuses available, making them the most sought-after collectibles after legendary mutations. Finding a Mythic accessory is a major event for any player.
The high stats provided by Mythic accessories can include significant bonuses to weight capacity, selling speed, or other gameplay mechanics. While the exact stats depend on the specific accessory, the "High Stats" designation means these accessories provide the most impactful bonuses in the game.
How to Obtain Mythic Accessories:
- Diamond Safe containers (S-Tier containers have the best accessory rates)
- High-value NPC quest rewards
- Shipyard container loot (extremely rare)
- Special events or limited-time opportunities
Legendary Accessories
| Attribute | Detail |
|---|---|
| Tier | S |
| Rarity | Legendary |
| Bonus | Strong Utility |

Legendary accessories sit alongside Mythic accessories at S-Tier. While Mythic accessories focus on raw stat bonuses, Legendary accessories tend to provide strong utility benefits. This could include bonuses to specific gameplay mechanics like auction bidding, hauling speed, or shop efficiency.
How to Obtain Legendary Accessories:
- A-Tier and S-Tier containers

A-Tier Accessories (Epic)
| Attribute | Detail |

Epic accessories provide solid stat boosts that are noticeable in gameplay. They are rarer than Rare and Common accessories but appear with enough frequency in higher-tier containers that dedicated players can collect several over time.
How to Obtain Epic Accessories:
- B-Tier containers and above (Back Alley, Farmyard, Shipyard)
- Mid-level and high-level NPC quest rewards
- Occasional finds in Barn Garage and Shipyard Container loot
B-Tier Accessories (Rare)
| Attribute | Detail |
|---|---|
| Tier | B |
| Rarity | Rare |

How to Obtain Common Accessories:
- C-Tier Junk Yard Containers
- Storage Lockers
- Beginner NPC quest rewards
- Any container (frequent drops)
Best Accessories to Prioritize
If you are building your accessory collection strategically, here is the priority order:
Priority 1: Any S-Tier Accessory
Mythic and Legendary accessories are so rare and powerful that you should pursue any opportunity to obtain them. When you find one in a container, always prioritize hauling it. When an NPC quest offers one as a reward, complete the quest immediately.
Priority 2: Epic Accessories with Useful Bonuses
Epic accessories provide good boosts that enhance your daily gameplay. Focus on Epic accessories that complement your playstyle:
- Hauling-focused players - Look for Epic accessories that boost weight capacity or hauling speed
- Auction-focused players - Look for Epic accessories that improve bidding or cash management
- Selling-focused players - Look for Epic accessories that increase selling speed or display capacity
Priority 3: Rare Accessories for Set Bonuses
Some accessories may provide set bonuses when multiple pieces from the same set are equipped. Rare accessories are the most practical tier for completing sets, as they appear frequently enough to collect matching pieces.
Priority 4: Common Accessories for Completion
Common accessories fill out your collection and provide small cumulative bonuses. Collect them passively as you play through Junk Yard and Back Alley containers.
Accessory Collection Strategy
Early Game Collection (Junk Yard and Back Alley)
In the early game, focus on collecting Common and Rare accessories from Junk Yard and Back Alley containers. Do not spend extra on containers just for accessories - let them come naturally as you bid on containers for their item value. Complete NPC quests that offer accessory rewards.
Mid Game Collection (Farmyard)
The Farmyard introduces better accessory drop rates through B-Tier and A-Tier containers. Barn Garages in particular offer improved chances for Epic accessories. Prioritize Barn Garage auctions for both item value and accessory potential.
Endgame Collection (Shipyard)
The Shipyard offers the best accessory rates in the game. A-Tier Shipyard Containers and S-Tier Diamond Safes are the primary sources for Legendary and Mythic accessories. If you are hunting for the best accessories, the Shipyard is where you will spend most of your time.
Accessory Bonuses and Gameplay Impact
While the exact bonuses of each accessory vary, the general categories of bonuses include:
| Bonus Category | Gameplay Impact | Best Accessory Tier |
|---|---|---|
| Weight Capacity | More items per haul trip | Mythic (biggest boost) |
| Selling Speed | Faster cash generation | Legendary (strong utility) |
| Mutation Detection | Easier identification of rare mutations | Epic (good boost) |
| Auction Bidding | Better bid timing or cost efficiency | Epic (good boost) |
| Movement Speed | Faster travel between locations | Rare (moderate) |
| General Stats | Overall improvement | Common (basic) |
The most impactful accessories are those that boost weight capacity and selling speed, as these address the same bottlenecks targeted by the Car Weight and Selling Space gamepasses. Accessories that complement your gamepasses create an even more efficient gameplay loop.
