[granite urchin]

that was an old ship photo

i went to the glyphs and couldent find it

do i just need to wait at a trade outpost till it shows or what do i do

[fluid pagoda]

yes

[granite urchin]

oh i thought it just came on the first few waves of ships

[patent grail]

@granite urchin Is it an outlaw system? If so, it may be overridden by Solar - you'll be able to recognize the colours if that's the case.

[fluid pagoda]

it will specify if it does

[granite urchin]

id have to go back and check i only waited about 10 mins

[granite urchin]

sorry last question. do i need to keep reloading my restore point or no?

[patent grail]

No

[granite urchin]

i got the ship lets go

[small sundial]

Eh idk the haulers look ugly to me

[thin hamlet]

Ok

[granite urchin]

honestly not a fan and i wanna get rid of it but dont need the salvage. check #nms-lfg-or-trades for info on how to get this one if you want it.

aswell as i need a name for this one

[stray smelt]

I may need to go back and get this beauty. Isdoraijung Galaxy

[winter obsidian]

Well

[uncut yarrow]

Both in galaxy 230

[uneven tree]

Yeah, capitals are expensive. Not worth IMO, even at the later stage. System freighters have more variety, easier to get as S-class and are much, much cheaper.

[granite urchin]

how do you get a capital tho

how can u tell that is

[upper pendant]

How do I hunt for an exotic? I went to the system it should spawn at, sat at the station (is a pirate one) now I just wait for it to come?

[upper pendant]

There's a special mission kicking in, and it's hella big

[granite urchin]

try a trade center

[upper pendant]

Ok I'll try

[granite urchin]

is this a capital? ive heard it is and ive heard it isnt

[upper pendant]

yes it's a sentinel-style capital freighter

I think large

yes, large... took a bit to properly count the segments

[granite urchin]

ah alright. and if i wanted to buy one of the ones that looks like a star destroyer would there be a way to transfer my stuff that ive built to it i put alot of work into this room specifically

not so much the outside area just the inside one

[uneven tree]

Well, bases should transfer. But the system is very buggy. Mine haven't transferred for example, was rebuilding everything from scratch.

[granite urchin]

yeah i had a c class corxax freighter and i had this same room in it

bought the one i have now thats an s class and it had to be rebuilt

[kindred hull]

What are those lights on floor...if i may ask?

[minor rampart]

I don't know how it fits

[vapid dirge]

..what.

how so smol?

[minor rampart]

that's what I thought when it came in space station

like why this ship is so small

it's in Euclid Galaxy

have a visit to the system I have seen many such small ships there

[uneven tree]

Squat

[minor rampart]

maybe 😆

it would be funny to see the character in squat while piloting the ship😆

[sullen mountain]

found this cool ship today

[uneven tree]

Guys, do pirate ships use the "general" system spawn pool? So for example is I see this ship as a pirate it should normally spawn in this system, right?

[blazing crater]

BRO I GOT A DREAM AERIAL LETS GOOOOOOOO

[blazing crater]

best bet would be to go afk in current freighter for 2 hours, then on the last hour get the economy scanner and do 5 jumps then once you have done 5 jumps in three hour try to find a system with an enconomy rating of 3 and thats ur best bet, if u dont get it first try DO NOT KILL ANYTHING IN THAT SYSTEM re jump and try again untill you find what you want

https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=jason+nms+freighter+finding&&view=detail&mid=4EED6B12239387B70F8D4EED6B12239387B70F8D&&FORM=VRDGAR&ru=%2Fvideos%2Fsearch%3Fq%3Djason%2Bnms%2Bfreighter%2Bfinding%26FORM%3DHDRSC3

that video for more 🙂

[blazing crater]

coords?

[patent grail]

@uneven tree No, they have their own pool of 5 seeds per system, and those 5 seeds can all spawn as Fighter, Hauler, Explorer, and Shuttle, so 20 total hostile ship models.

[torpid kindle]

why the fuck are you using bing of all search engines?

[blazing crater]

why do you care?

[zenith lotus]

Glyphs? Galaxy?

[zenith lotus]

@granite urchin glyphs and galaxy?

[sullen mountain]

idk sry

[zenith lotus]

[granite urchin]

outside? honestly not usre i think its the lighting mod i have

[barren scroll]

Found a pirate system loaded with freighters

[timber ingot]

"How many thrusters do you need?"
"Yes"
[@ Euclid]

[zenith lotus]

That's crazy. This C class freighter has 1 less total point than your S class one.
When this bad boy gets to S its gonna be incredible.

[loud sierra]

This is so beautiful . Euclid

[paper dune]

Found in the ompakk system* in Elucid

Second pulse after 6 minutes with anomaly detector (also this system has some cool rare animals feel free to peak around)

[fluid pagoda]

ompakk galaxy... in euclid..?

[upper pendant]

All ships have a chance to show up S-Rank?

[fluid pagoda]

There's only so many ships in a system so im not sure, with a 3 star system probably

in a 1 star the chance of an S class is literally 0 so

[split breach]

For regular ships, yes

You can still get exotics

[upper pendant]

I see... I'm browsing a wiki catalog and it shows a ship that I sorta like at A-Rank... but not sure it's just the one they updated or there is chances for better... it's a solar btw

[fluid pagoda]

If it's in a pirate system it'll probably have an S

they have the highest chance of S at 5%

[upper pendant]

It's a 2-stars accordly to the wiki

[fluid pagoda]

ah

[split breach]

Non living, non exotic ships can spawn in all classes if economy level allows for it

[fluid pagoda]

chance of S is really low, i say have nanites ready

[split breach]

You can always upgrade the class with nanites

[upper pendant]

90k nanites

[fluid pagoda]

It's 85k from C-S

50k for just A-S

[upper pendant]

Gotta recycle that living slimes

I mean I just want it for fun, since I fly mostly a living

With like 1900ish hyperdrive range

[fluid pagoda]

yeah my living ship goes very nyoom

just wish the manoeuvrability was better

[kindred hull]

You know why i hate this design?

[kindred hull]

Sorry to say this but you are wrong here. What you are showing is an industrial one and that S class is a trade one

[kindred hull]

And if you really want to compare then ... Look at my industrial ones...they have even lower number than your c class and they are already s class.

That number has nothing to do with class.
Lower class can have higher number
Higher class can have lower number

And in case you wondering...they weren't s class to begin eith...they are all home grown...all from C to S

[upper pendant]

I got maneuvrability and range... so probably best outcome for normal play... and feeding base mats is love ||repairing after that certain quest, on the other hand||

Also this lovely thing looks like a friendly Bydo

[rugged sonnet]

that C class already has traits unlocked. im guessing it already has greater traits (+6 industry) thats why it is over 30.
you can buy a C class with a low number and it could overtake your ship by unlocking all industrial traits. 2x greater and 2x lesser.

[rugged sonnet]

this in theory has the potential to be a better ship.

[small sundial]

It looks cool but idk if I want it

[kindred hull]

Used to be like ⬆️

[granite urchin]

do u have the glyphs for taht

[small sundial]

Let me check

That's a negative captain

Sorry

[granite urchin]

alr

[small sundial]

Found one that changes colors

[novel cloak]

Wowzers

[wispy orchid]

Colors look wild

[sullen mountain]

white and blue solar i just found

[uneven tree]

Opinion on this ship?

I just can't decide if I love it or hate the shape

[sullen mountain]

i like it. the visibility would be really good in 3rd person

[zenith lotus]

Glyphs. Galaxy

[zenith lotus]

It's awesome. But I wish different colors, and bigger side wings.

[edgy dock]

@small sundial No gifs are allowed in our NMS channels, that's why they're blocked (see Pins )

[small sundial]

Oooohhhhh literally everytime I did it, it made my app crash and didnt show anything sent 😅 sorry

[edgy dock]

Aww that sucks Discord kept crashing. Their apps can be a bit unstable like that. No worries. Figured I'd explain the blockage

[small sundial]

Explanation is helpful 😁 sorry again

[upper pendant]

Reminds me of a dragster... or how the hell are called those looooong cars made to just run straight

[zenith lotus]

Yep. Drag races.

[upper pendant]

Also this very old cartoon

[uneven tree]

Wow, didn't know they had a pic of my ship back then 😁

[upper pendant]

You should ask for copyrights, it'll be some huge cash

[small sundial]

I have claimed my rainbow ship!!!

[kindred hull]

Looks awesome

[pale oyster]

that is probably the best living ship I have seen posted on here, nice job

[small sundial]

Thnx! 😁

[upper pendant]

ugh...one looks much cooler, but the other seems to have better stats

[edgy dock]

That's gorgeous!

[edgy dock]

Sweet ride!

[small sundial]

Thanks 😁

[spring tartan]

What do u guys think the best looking live ship is?

Eissenstam
One of the nicer Black/Red Solar ships I have seen. With some legit bubblegum pink sails.

And a few more from Eissenstam

[sudden locust]

Anyone help me get to Budullangr?

[patent grail]

@spring tartan This is the most striking LS I ever discovered, before I knew that every single crash site is a different model - I've put off going back to try and find it again, because I'm guessing the light's playing some tricks in this view, and I'd rather preserve it in memory like this than go put effort into getting a glimpse of whats likely an ugly truth lol

[spring tartan]

I have some okay ships I think but I just want a live one

[upper pendant]

"Best" look is personal, since color matchings is s subjective thing. But I personally think that the most pleasant ones are the ones with all the "appendages"

This is mine for example. Full arms and feet

[fluid sandal]

Does anyone know how to get a ball ship?

[upper pendant]

May be wrong but I think there's a chance for one to spawn in each system. You just have to wait at the space station

[fleet crane]

Ball ships are edited. You can only get them from another player.

Or editing them yourself.

[fluid sandal]

Wait foreal o I didn’t know that

[upper pendant]

I was referring to the Exotics. (Which are basically a ball cockpit)

[fluid sandal]

Does anyone have any balls ships here?

[fleet crane]

Most folks say exotic for exotic, and ball for the ones edited to just be the cockpit.

[fleet crane]

You can try in #nms-lfg-or-trades , but it might be a long while before any shows with one.

[fluid sandal]

O bet thank you

[granite urchin]

the razorcrest is mine

[winter obsidian]

big dump of some cool ships I found in the same system. All Euclid.

[winter obsidian]

another ship dump in euclid. all same system.

[rough axle]

My first living ship was black and white and my second one is green grey. Personally I’m satisfied but wondering if anyone else has come across these color schemes themselves.

[spring tartan]

is there away to spawn S class captain ships or a way to make it better?

[fervent bloom]

you mean capital ships?

if yes then no you just have to be lucky

[spring tartan]

Yh and okay that a shame

[upper pendant]

Reloading

[pale oyster]

'a way to make it better'... someone shared a strategy if you had someone with you to help, but I may get this wrong. Make a save point. Then you do the pirate battle, then the friend goes with you in the freighter to check its class, if not S, then you go back to space station or Anomaly and reload and go check Class again. The friend stays in the freighter the whole time. Not sure 100% that this is exactly how it was explained, though.

[spring tartan]

Okay Ty

[lost valve]

Outlaw systems have better chances to spawn an S class than other systems, 5%, tier 3 economy systems have a 2% chance

Btw I read the old messages, what is a ball ship, is it a guppy exotic?

[pale oyster]

@lost valveit's a modified exotic that is just the cockpit, no wings or engines or other appendages

[uneven tree]

Much appreciate the opinion! Love this community, everyone's chill and friendly.

[pale oyster]

there are also ones available for squid cockpits and hopper cockpits

[spring tartan]

Ty for the heads up

[lost valve]

Hopper as an explorer ship?

[lost valve]

How do you get it?

[pale oyster]

@lost valvefind people that have them to give you one, or use a search engine such as Google to find out how to create one if you are on PC

[lost valve]

Oh you can make one

[pale oyster]

yes, that is how they exist

[kindred hull]

This is much better

[kindred hull]

i guess just fly around and hope 4 the best

dont rlly have mutch experience in the game

[small sundial]

I like the large star destroyer that I have, but for those who like sentinel freighters, I just ran into this big boy

[winter obsidian]

Is it possible to found mosquito wing + royale nose + side wings setup?

[cinder grove]

Glyphs and galaxy?

[split breach]

No, you can either have the royal setup (double front spike + short top fin) or mosquito setup (single front spike + long top fin)

Those parts always come together

Wings can be of all types

[spring tartan]

Is there any way to upgrade ur capital ship tier like u can ur normal ships

[grand tinsel]

No

[oak marsh]

So they were in the lower left corner when I took the pic. But arent actually on the pic itself when I view it. Is there a way I can fix that?

[oak marsh]

I can go back. I only do a couple systems a day usually. And that was fairly recent. Which one(s) are you interested in?

Just found this one in Eissenstam. First all grey ship of any kind I have seen. It's an absolute tragedy that the sails aren't like a poppin yellow or orange.

[cinder grove]

I ran into this issue - use F12 rather than in-game capture mode. That works instead.

[kindred hull]

Please read the rules for posting images in this channel.

They are mentioned in pins.

It's because some technology was supercharged, I don't think the difference will be very noticeable once you move it out of supercharged slots, so stick to either your preference, or to supercharged slot layout :)

[upper pendant]

I will, ty... Or I will be very dumb and try to find another solar (despite having spent 50k nanites to S rank one of those)

[fluid pagoda]

Technically every single one

[upper pendant]

I'm not too fond of that front part, but the wings design feels quite nice

[kindred hull]

I am not sure about this. What i meant ... What was the sample size. 🤔

[fluid pagoda]

Game data, statistics

Ask weasel

[kindred hull]

🤔

[fluid pagoda]

He took all the game values and rounded them into 1-5

[kindred hull]

Huh...idk... My fighter solar and exotic have almost equal handling...core values. 🤔

[pale oyster]

@kindred hullhere is another chart showing ship values

Craig Mark put this together, he has the website of nomanskyresources

[kindred hull]

Yeah...and this almost affirms my point... 🤔... I knew living ships suck at handling but are capable fighters...

That was based on observation not any chart

[pale oyster]

damage loses value if you can't maneuver, though 🙂

I should say relevance, not value, so as not to confuse the terms

[grand tinsel]

Frigging Craig

That chart isn't completely accurate per usual

@surreal sapphire He's at it again, look at this one

[kindred hull]

Who is at it?

[grand tinsel]

Facebook group

[kindred hull]

I am not sure...

LS can survive assualt from 8 or more pirate ships without losing ships.

[fleet crane]

I handled a "hunt dangerous pirates" mission from the Nexus in my LS yesterday. Low maneuverability but fully upgraded in other areas, never had to even recharge my shields.

This is a S class phase beam moule of my LS...normal phase beam only gives 50% sheild restore.

[kindred hull]

Highest on that is 150%

[rugged sonnet]

the figheter is max 105 cargo but if you use save editor you can unlock 120

[kindred hull]

But if i get that i lose damage

[grand tinsel]

What's that got to do with a vanilla list though?

I can raise those bonuses also

[rugged sonnet]

whoever made the chart probably just used save editor to grab the values

im not saying its right but thats probably where the mistake came from

I have done a photon cannon by photon cannon analysis

And that how i figured things out

Without charting

[pale oyster]

I don't know how much info is wrong on nomanskyresources site, but it is a good organized place for new players to find out how to build up ships, exosuits, MTs, and freighters

[rugged sonnet]

you actualy cant trust the stats shown in game any more than these charts tbh, the stats in the analysis visor are inconsistent af

[kindred hull]

It depends on what you are looking for

I am pretty sure i can bend some stats

[rugged sonnet]

stat values for both ships and multitools are so incoherent

ship values in the visor change depending on which ship you have active. you can look at a non active ship and get different values to when it active

and the multitool values are jank aswell. a 50k dmg boltcaster does nowhere near as much dmg as a 30k dmg pulse splitter

and the scatterblaster is even more off kilter

[kindred hull]

Both handling stats says 50%...

[gleaming minnow]

That is not mine. It is from NMSResources ...

[grand tinsel]

[oak marsh]

Eissenstam
I have looked at it in multiple lights and it seems to be a medium grey with black(?) trim. I seem to be finding some interesting grey ships recently.

Also, I found this yesterday. Anyone into it? I like the grey guppy better, tbh. But just barely. I guess I just hate dorsal fins occluding my view when flying.

[lofty surge]

It's actually white. Exotics only come in white, yellow, orange, red, and blue... with gold or silver trim. (the exception being Squids, of course)

[oak marsh]

Ah, thanks. Are there different shades of white by chance? This looks so "mop water" white.

[lofty surge]

It's all about the lighting. Frozen or dead worlds with the right atmosphere can really make things pop. And ambient colors tend to "infiltrate" spots they shouldn't, like SpaceStations and Freighter hangers.

[oak marsh]

Gotcha. Thanks for explaining that.

[fluid pagoda]

Euclid, got it as a first wave when I visited a trading post (not after reload, but it's nice to see it twice in a row haha)

[patent grail]

@lofty surge It's actually grey, lol. The only piece of evidence is a picture posted by HG when Exotics were released, the filename specifically calls it grey.

[woeful flicker]

Is this rare?

[zenith lotus]

It's possible that it's rare. But it's cool and that's more important

[woeful flicker]

Roger that. Yea I think it's cool 😁

[woeful flicker]

I like this one. I'm looking for that model minus the dorsal

[patent grail]

@woeful flicker The dorsal fin and nose are a single piece, cannot have one without the other

[sterile nexus]

Does anyone have glyphs for an exotic ship?

[patent grail]

@sterile nexus Every single race-affiliated system has 1 Exotic model

-# As of August 2023, ship trading has been working only for "unique" ships that are claimed as expedition rewards: Golden Vector, Utopia Speeder, and Starborn Runner. All other ships cannot be traded as they despawn for the other player as soon as the owner exchanges their ship.

1. ❗IMPORTANT: Save to create a Restore Point prior to the trade.
2. Be in the same multiplayer group with your friend.
3. Go to a Space Station, Trading Outpost, or Planetary Archive -- anywhere that has NPC ship landing bays.
4. Make your friend stand in front of your ship, the one you're trading, so they can quickly interact with the NPC as soon as it teleports to your ship.
5. Exchange your ship with an NPC.
6. Immediately ask your friend to interact with the NPC to exchange or claim the traded ship for free.
7. Disable multiplayer in settings and Leave Group.
8. Make your friend Save to create a Restore Point.
9. Reload your individual Restore Points:

• Your Restore Point should be before the trade so that you can retain your ship.
• Friend's Restore Point should be after the trade & disabling multiplayer so that they can retain their ship.

Traded ships will have mods and number of slots reset to default settings, and any cargo will be lost.
* Old footnote no longer applicable: Traded ships get class and stats re-rolled for friend -- except Exotics and Living Ships, which only get stats re-rolled, their class will stay at (S) class.

@edgy dock ... Our sensei to rescue...

Trading 101

[edgy dock]

thank @worn sage

[kindred hull]

🤔

I thought this was already known info...wasn't it. 🤔

[worn sage]

Many players ask how to trade. It will be much easier to point them to this pinned message instead of explaining the entire process.

[kindred hull]

Wait it wasn't pinned before

😲

[worn sage]

I don’t think, no.

[kindred hull]

STUPID ODS STRIKES AGAIN

My discovery system named in name of @strange smelt

I even named three planets...
Iceblue prime
Amen
Skat

🥲

Why ods is soooo unfair to me

And she is not even ON gog

😑

Sorry nothing personal... @strange smelt but i hate it when ods does that...and its not only this system

[strange smelt]

Where is this? What galaxy? I don't remember this system

[kindred hull]

Its in euclid

You remember i showed you my first save base?

[strange smelt]

Oooh

Did I discover this system?

[kindred hull]

Although i dicoverd it year ago ... It says you did it three months ago

😑

[strange smelt]

Maybe you forgot to upload the system?

I'm sorry for stealing your discovery 🙁

[kindred hull]

It has my planet names

How is that possible...that planet names remain but system doesn't

[strange smelt]

Idk. The NMS discovery system is weird

You must have forgotten to upload the system then.

[kindred hull]

No i had not... I named three planets.... Even took piks from there

Planets still remain unchanged

[kindred hull]

These?

Weird part is... It says GOG next to your name... But i don't think you on GOG. 🤔

[pale oyster]

@kindred hullmaybe relaod and see if it updates the discoveries

@small sundialnew find?

[small sundial]

Na it's my rainbow ship 😁

I named it starburst

[pale oyster]

you should share glyphs and coords for people to find it on this channel, no?

[small sundial]

😁

Elucid

[paper dune]

I’m about done with my quest are people reloading on those cords to change look

[pale oyster]

need to have the planetary coords to find the exact same ship

[patent grail]

@paper dune Can't target specific model on initial quest

[small sundial]

Na there are a ton of people with message balls and a base called "Rbw ship"

There is also a blue squid ship

[paper dune]

Second egg etc does whole process go faster then?

[small sundial]

It's on the planet the teleport brings you

[paper dune]

Like a 24 hour countdown instead of growing everything

[pale oyster]

@small sundialok, sounds like someone else has shared this ship on a site somewhere

[small sundial]

Yep

[pale oyster]

I don't link sites much anymore, because I can't keep track of which people hate which people because of how they choose to play

[small sundial]

Eh some people play by collecting, others would rather find naturally, to each their own 😁

[patent grail]

@paper dune 2nd and onwards it's pulse encounter, choose to hatch, LS spawns at nearby crash site, pay 10k nanites to accept/reject for Void Egg refund

[paper dune]

Ah ok that’s not bad at all

[woeful flicker]

Do living ships break when you go through the core?

[patent grail]

Yep

[woeful flicker]

Ugh

I thought this one was pretty 😁

[winter obsidian]

how long do items typically stay in the quicksilver store

[patent grail]

@winter obsidian They never go away

[winter obsidian]

Oh

So theyre like not limited time items or anything?

[patent grail]

Nope

[winter obsidian]

oh

i have some exosuit things locked in the appearance thing, how do i get those?

[timid siren]

quicksilver shop

[oak marsh]

Okay. That makes sense. Thank you! Because I was looking at it near (just not next to) other white ships and I was like... still looks grey. 🫤

[full dragon]

Euclid?

[timid siren]

I believe living ships always spawn in the galaxy you're in

or rather, the mission will keep you in that galaxy

[willow dagger]

Anyone got cool solar ships

[timid siren]

I got portal coordnates to a white S class if you want em

along with physical coordinates on the planet

[small sundial]

Yes

[vast meadow]

Ay lad if you’ll give some time please I’d much very appreciate it, may I get them coordinates you spoke about please and thank you, and how does one put coordinates in the portal if ya don’t mind answering

[timid siren]

the portal glyphs

Considering you asked that, you should use this one first after you get the first 2. itll give you the rest of them

[vast meadow]

Ooo I like it, but may I ask why do you get these glyphs?

Where*

[timid siren]

coordnates to the S class: -40.39 +60.45

[timid siren]

On a few space stations, you will find people that dont look like normal aliens thatll glow a bit. talk to them twice and ask where they came from, which will bring you to a grave you can get the glyph from

the first set of glyphs I sent will bring you to a planet full of graves. many bases built there will lead you right to them

[vast meadow]

Ohhh then see through lads?

Then

[timid siren]

yup

[vast meadow]

Oh shite😂 I just leave em be. So I talk to them they give me coordinates to their grave and I get the glyph?

[timid siren]

mhm

[vast meadow]

Ah, where do I go to put them on

[timid siren]

you mean finding a portal?

[vast meadow]

Yes, to be able to use the coordinates

[timid siren]

talk to a cartographer on a station and get maybe 10 planetary charts marked with alien stuff. use those to find a monolith

the monolith will have some sort of trial, and if you do it right, you can interact with it again to request a portal location

[vast meadow]

Ah and that shall give me the portal I need?

[timid siren]

yup. just a heads up, they are on like opposite sides of the planet

[vast meadow]

Ok

Is this the type of chart I need

Or do I get the alien one

[timid siren]

get like 10 of the alien ones

[vast meadow]

Aye, thank you for the answers, I’ll be lettin ya know if need anymore assistance. Thanks

[timid siren]

the charts wont always point you to a monolith. you may have to try 4 times or so

[vast meadow]

Ok, how do I know if it’s a monolith

[timid siren]

itll say

[vast meadow]

Ok I’m Gavin troubles using the planetary charts😂

Havin*

Nevermind I figured it out, I didn’t know it was in inventory

[vast meadow]

Do I have to jump to a different system after I use ons? I tried using two but the second one came up with a different spot but led me to the same spot the first one did

[timid siren]

there is one monolith on each planet. you dont have to worry about system jumping unless you mess up on all the planets

[vast meadow]

Could I be messing it up?

[timid siren]

have you found a monolith?

[vast meadow]

This is what they bring me to

And after this it goes back to the place with a ramp and an energy ball on top

Do I select knowledge of the past

[timid siren]

I dont think thats what you're looking for. the ones you're after will start with some dialogue and then a choice with doing something

[vast meadow]

This one starts with dialogue and then ends with these 3 selections in the photo

[timid siren]

I mean it gives you a choice involving a vision of sorts

for example, one of them I found will melt the front and reveal riches inside. you have a choice of taking them or leaving them

[vast meadow]

Oh

I’m using the alien planetary charts

[timid siren]

and it said monolith?

[patent grail]

@vast meadow thats a Plaque

[vast meadow]

No

They say plague when I go up to then like @patent grail said

[timid siren]

if it says its a plaque, it aint a monolith

monoliths are very large and have a few knowledge stones around the base

[vast meadow]

Hmmm. So I gotta keep usin the same charts?

[patent grail]

@vast meadow Dont visit any markers til youve gotten 1 that says monolith - alien charts can mark up to 3 sites

[vast meadow]

Ok

I’m at one now, do I ahoot the creature or leave it alone?

Those are the two selections

[patent grail]

@vast meadow You flew your ship there,yes?

[vast meadow]

Yes

[patent grail]

Then pick one and if its wrong reload restore point

[vast meadow]

I’m in permadeath I think I have to be in freighter OR a station

It was correct

[patent grail]

Interact again

[vast meadow]

I got the portal

Do I add all the glyphs I have to the thing

[patent grail]

@vast meadow You charge all the Glyphs up, then you can dial using the ones youve learned

[vast meadow]

Ah ok thank you

[vast meadow]

Now from the planet I just have to go to the coordinates?

I’m at the coordinates posted but there is nothing here

[oak marsh]

Sorry for the repeat post. I accidentally tagged someone on accident.
Eissenstam

[woeful flicker]

All good 👍 that one is nice but personally I don't like the big under fin.

[fluid pagoda]

@glass fox HEY BRO

WHERE DO U GET UR GOOD LIVING SHIPS I SWEAR

im still GOING

its been 4 HOURS

[glass fox]

oh nooo 😂 have you tried down yonder that-a-ways?

[fluid pagoda]

LMAO WHAT

i accidentally shot the living ship

and it counts it as a trader

i can't land

[glass fox]

ABUSE

rude

[fluid pagoda]

and it locks on to it

[glass fox]

Your game is a little cursed

[fluid pagoda]

my home system, eissentam

[upper pendant]

There's no way fo preview how a solar ship's sails will look beside buying and flying out right?

Also nice Sazabi

[edgy dock]

Yeah, you can also try stalking an NPC and hope you get to see the sails that way I guess

[fluid pagoda]

You can always buy the ship, fly to see the sails then reload your save if you don't like em

i guess it's savescumming but

you should be able to see sail colour when you buy them, its unfair that you can't

[edgy dock]

Great point. As long as it's immediate reload while flying and not exiting your ship, and auto-save doesn't kick in

[fluid pagoda]

yeah

also look what I got!!!!!!

what is this concept, "colour"

[edgy dock]

Savescumming's gotten more challenging since the Auto-Save feature, which I learned can overwrite both saves including your "restore point" (which I find questionable)

[fluid pagoda]

I haven't had it overwrite my autosave yet, just the other way around

[edgy dock]

Gorgeous! You happy with this one?

[fluid pagoda]

I am, finally!

My first was Soulflake, this one is Soulshard

only about 4 hours of hunting.... .. "only"

[upper pendant]

yeah, it's the seller witholding informations so it's pretty legit to savescum

Also, nice living

(I went cheap for mine and just browsed a catalogue)

[fluid pagoda]

not sure if it's an upgrade from this, but it's new

[edgy dock]

Definite upgrade in my book

[fluid pagoda]

tru it does look even nicer landed

[upper pendant]

I like that 'head'

my first living has it (The one I got from starbirth and I still keep because the quest was cute, so would feel sorta bad to scrap her for stuff, I'll probably give it to some of my squadron someday)

[patent grail]

@edgy dock There are only a couple of things that can trigger an auto Restore Point, offhand the only one I can think of is claiming a new Freighter.

[edgy dock]

Yesterday it happened to me by doing nothing, just being idle. I'd done a manual save (which should've created the restore point or at least that's been my understanding), but that was overwritten by an auto-save several minutes after. Not cool.

[patent grail]

@edgy dock You exited ship, creating a Restore Point, and after idling an Auto Save triggered, shifting the Restore Point to the 2nd slot - Auto Saves can keep occurring, but will keep overwriting the 1st slot, an Auto Save should never overwrite the Restore Point.

[edgy dock]

In my case, I didn't exist a ship tho. Used a save beacon in my settlement. Was checking the next settlement decision but never made a selection. Got distracted and was idle for a long bit (no clue how long). When I went to reload my save at some point, both of my saves had been overwritten by the auo-save, showing the same timestamp, with no more manual-save restore point.

[patent grail]

@edgy dock Now that is definitely BS

[edgy dock]

I find the overwriting of something labeled "restore point" by an auto-save i had no control over to be problematic

[patent grail]

Good thing I dont chill at my settlement ever

Agreed

[pale oyster]

No Auto Save mod

[edgy dock]

There's a way to modify your save on PC. But I still have to try it.

[pale oyster]

Nexus already has the mod

[eager oxide]

They should make the auto save thing a game difficulty option

[turbid tusk]

i need this ship but with the serenity

[edgy dock]

Ooh really? I hadn't realized that! Thx for the heads up

Euclid Galaxy

for interesting

[pale oyster]

@turbid tuskcan you edit the name of the galaxy into your post so people can find them

[timid siren]

are you 1. at the first or second set of portal coordinates I gave you. 2. working on getting the glyphs or finding the S class?

[tender flower]

when people say squid ship, is that in reference to living ships or the exotics with those tendril things going forward and the cab sitting above?

[winter obsidian]

The exotic

[tender flower]

thanks!

[granite urchin]

someone pick a ship and colors and the parts and ill go try to find it

[granite urchin]

no freighters or living tho

[pale oyster]

purple heavy barrell tie wings, single thruster

[vapid imp]

Am I the only one who prefers living ships lol

I’m happy with my 1500 warp drive range

[pale oyster]

there are others that like those mediocre things 😉 j/k

they do look cool

[vast meadow]

The one with the picture and then the -40 +60 cords

[granite urchin]

nah i have 2 of them and a full living squadron i had 9 at one point

but i wanted to branch out

[granite urchin]

wings on both sides or only on 1 side

[pale oyster]

both sides, but NO dorsal fin

[granite urchin]

alright

[timid siren]

go to the coordinates I posted.

[bold meteor]

Anyone found a royal with 3 large fins when landed and 2 when flying

possibly the color white

or blue

if you do dm me gliphs

but system must be either Euclid,Hilbert,calypso,Eissentam,Galaxy 42 or galaxy 43

[vast meadow]

Aye! I shall

[timid siren]

heads up, somebody put a landing pad right next to where it spawns, so theres a chance you will find it on the landing pad instead

[paper dune]

Elucid, not my find but came to check it out, did not disappoint

[turbid tusk]

If you like halo ships, this is the best hauler for that.

here's the seed: 0xCB822F965277677A

and this is the planet glyphs where you can find them

euclid galaxy, in any trade post, good luck, noble out

[vast meadow]

I get those all the time

Especially when you recruit them all in a fighter squad and you have one yourself looks pretty bad a$$

[woeful flicker]

My new ride:

[final hazel]

Station?

[woeful flicker]

I tried the planets. Took 2.5 hours but I got it on the trading post on the planet when you portal in.

I could see it spawn, but it would never land...

Then finally, it landed

[turbid tusk]

turning my custom ship in part of the system xd

[tender flower]

what is the absolute max hyperdrive range?

[patent grail]

@tender flower In vanilla for freighters, ~5805LY, for starships, ~3490LY

[tender inlet]

infinite for living ships

[patent grail]

@tender inlet How do you figure that?

[pure sleet]

Living Frigates

[patent grail]

@pure sleet Any idea how many start S Class with >36 total base stats?

[pure sleet]

All but two of them were

Oh, the stats thing? no clue...but all but 2 were S-class

and all of those are in Euclid, btw

[woeful flicker]

Not sure if anyone is interested in something like this, it seemed different so I thought I'd post it

Euclid

[plain panther]

(euclid)

[plain panther]

(euclid)

[kindred hull]

How to know that

[patent grail]

@kindred hull Add Combat + Exploration + Trade + Industrial stats, then subtract any bonuses to those stats granted by the Traits in bubbles to calculate total base stats.

Take this one for instance:

[patent grail]

3 Com + 1 Exp + 19 Ind + 2 Trd = 25
25 - (+15 Ind Trait) = 10 Base stats

[kindred hull]

So mine is 39

[patent grail]

For yours, 21+19+11+7-6-6-6-1 = 39, yes exactly

Where from? (Max base on S Class Living is 40 lol)

[kindred hull]

WOOT

🎉

[kindred hull]

My home system...where you made the Xmas tree

And this is what I found first with dream surf excel

😂

[patent grail]

Nice, I never deleted that so dont evebn need to remember coords

[kindred hull]

👍

[patent grail]

Ahhhh shit - that was your 1st LF, acquired with Dream Aerial?

[kindred hull]

I don't have anomaly detectors otherwise i would found more

[kindred hull]

1st other than levia

[patent grail]

Still exciting for you, but not anyone else lol - the Dream Aerial randomizes Class, so theres little point in coming to grab my own from your system.

[kindred hull]

Idk... I got SUPER LUCKY

Happening a lot lately

I am getting max stats in X class mod just on 2-4 roll

Saved me time and lots of refund

🤣

Anyways...its good to know i got something good

[rugged sonnet]

this ship already has 4 expeditions tho? i personaly wouldnt call them base stats as those are stats gained from leveling (even if it was before you purchased the ship)
afaik the cap is 55 expeditions for leveling? so you are losing points at the end
the living ship interlooper posted has 0 expeditions so i would class them as base stats

[uneven tree]

4 expos are still below first level-up

[patent grail]

@rugged sonnet You can account for rank quite easily, because it's a flat +6 to base stats every single time

@uneven tree No

[uneven tree]

How come?

[rugged sonnet]

level ups add traits they are different

[uneven tree]

First level up is after 6 expos

[rugged sonnet]

frigate gain points on evey expedition afaik

[patent grail]

Because the 4th expedition earns the 1st rank up

@rugged sonnet No

[uneven tree]

Ain't it 6th?

[patent grail]

+6 base stats + trait swap potential at each rank, no other opportunities for either, and no, 4, 8, 15, 25, +5's to 55

[uneven tree]

Yeah, my bad, sorry

Idk why I thought about 6th this morning

[patent grail]

@rugged sonnet So the example I used has 10 base stats of 18 that would indicate a perfect specimen

A frigate with 8 complete is measured out of 24, 15 expds complete = max 30, etc...

And Living is measured out of 40, because thats how high an S Class can hit with 0 expeditions on those

[rugged sonnet]

or untill you get one stat to 50 points then you get less per level up

[patent grail]

That one may be true, havent tested it myself

[rugged sonnet]

i read that 50 is the cap for any given stat. and if when you level a point is awarded to that stat it just deletes the point

it wont automatically assign it to a different stat

so how many levelups does a ship get between 0 and 55 missions?

and it s always 5 points per level up?

[patent grail]

My guess wouldve been rollover into the next stat in line, but not gonna test that today, likely not tomorrow either

It's always 6 points per rank, 10 ranks total. (<4 complete = rank 0)

[rugged sonnet]

https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/v1m7wo/confirmation_50_is_maximum_skill_level_for/

[patent grail]

Thx, tis not a certainty, but appears legitimate enough for me to accept as truth and pass along when I answer on the subject

[rugged sonnet]

yeah i mean all it means is that its beneficial not to hit 50 too soon

[patent grail]

Living Frigates are an exception there, as well

[rugged sonnet]

if a stat hits 50 and you stll have 3 or 4 levelup you are gona lose some points

[patent grail]

Yes, and there are definitely LF variants that this occurs with, however when it does, it has no effect on the other 65 stat distribution variations

[pale oyster]

people in that thread talk about using mostly support frigates

[patent grail]

Yes, pre-Endurance there was a very strong argument that 100% Supports was the best setup one could have. But 100% Living blew that right outta the water.

[pale oyster]

I haven't switched teams, yet 🙂

My own personal immersion perspective, I removed alien MTs, I don't use living ships, and I don't trust that organic won't turn against us.

[rugged sonnet]

so am i correct in this calculation for this ship?
17 expeditions = 18 points
3 traits = 25 points
total points = 41
so 41 - 18 - 25 = -2 ?

[patent grail]

I view it as an infection which is steadily and inevitably progressing, so I'm making the smart choice and joining the inevitable winning side. 😄

[rugged sonnet]

-2 base stats tho how

[patent grail]

No, 4, 8, and 15 are rank ups, so max base = 12 + (6 * 3) = 30 base

That frigate has 16 base of possible 30

[rugged sonnet]

i still dont understand how you are getting that number

3 rank ups =18 points

and it has 25 points from traits

so expeditions that are from before you purchases the ship dont add any points then

[patent grail]

@rugged sonnet Base stats are the values on the right side of screen, Traits are on the left. At rank 0, a frigate starts with up to 12 points in base stats.

[rugged sonnet]

but the frigate i posted above should be "rank 3" correct?

and iff so should have had 18 points applied yes?

[rugged sonnet]

the same way this one should have had 6 points applied ?

none of it adds up unless ships that rank up before you buy them dont get the points applied

[patent grail]

@rugged sonnet Lol, correct - theyre constrained to the same maximum though, which is why the math is useful for determining a perfection value

[oak marsh]

@woeful flicker I am definitely on the hunt for a ball hauler. Preferably one that doesn't look like a McDonald's Hauler (or, as I call them, "McHaulers"). Which isn't easy since it seems every single one I come across looks like a McHauler.

[rugged sonnet]

so the next question i have is does having better stats reap better rewards? cos i can send dogsh*t C class frigates and they will complete 3star missions just fine as long as they have the right specialization.

literally no point buying S class or spending the time leveling them if all you get is the same rewards as you got at the start

[patent grail]

Rewards are per encounter, so yes you can complete the expedition just fine, but how many of the encounters arenyou succeeding in?

[oak marsh]

Hey all. I am fairly new to the game and wanted to make sure I am doing this right when searching for exotics. So could you check me out and tell me if I am doing anything wrong? Or if you all do anything different?

1. Arrive at trading post.
2. Save point.
3. Reload save.
4. Watch the first 3 waves or so.
5. Save, reload, start again.
   Does that sound right???

[pale oyster]

@oak marshand either land ship on ground, or when you land, summon your ship to the ground below, opens one more slot for NPC ships to land

[oak marsh]

@pale oysterYes. I definitely do that. Thanks! The rest look okay, though?

[pale oyster]

most people agree with that.... if it doesnt show in first few waves after a few reloads, I never reload anymore, I just wait it out

[edgy dock]

Sounds right to me. Can be trading post or space station.

[oak marsh]

Thats kind of what I was wondering. I hit a planet and I have reloaded like 10 times and havent seen anything. I was wondering if, at that point, I should just "wait it out."

[edgy dock]

It's all super rng. So reloading helps me feel like I'm speeding up the re-roll, if I don't see a ship I'm after with a second wave.

[oak marsh]

Gotcha. It helps me mentally too, lol.

[edgy dock]

All personal tbh. Multitask. Listen to a podcast or audiobook. Anything to make it less boring and more "productive" lol And take breaks ofc

[pale oyster]

to me, I always wonder if reloading made me just miss it on the next wave

[edgy dock]

There used to be a way to increase the chance of an exotic during a freighter battle. But honestly, no clue how much more that increased the chance and/or if it's still an option.

[oak marsh]

Yes. As in, "It would have been on the next wave." The worst is when I am about to reload and just as I hit the button I hear another ship land. And I just know THAT was the exotic finally landing.

[pale oyster]

LOL

I love this method if I am not feeling lazy:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Se6QVabdZrs

[oak marsh]

Yeah. I saw something like that where you could preview the system exotic during the freighter battle if you looked around and found it.

[oak marsh]

thanks!

[pale oyster]

@oak marshit works best if you only have one or 2 ships, though.... more room for NPCs to land in your freighter

[edgy dock]

Ooh actually, I did forget that there's a sound that distinguishes exotics. So that could be helpful if multitasking Especially in the Space Station where the sound feels more insulated

[pale oyster]

@edgy dockif I am home alone, I turn sound way up and go do other stuff

[edgy dock]

Exactly! I never tried it.

[oak marsh]

I need to learn that sound

[pale oyster]

i can hear it u in my freighrer base if an exotic lands

[oak marsh]

So but to be clear, I dont need to do the restarts? That's just one technique. I can also just leave the game running and watch the waves and, eventually, it will show up?

[pale oyster]

your call

I've waited over an hour at a trade depot for squids

now I cheat and swap a seed in for whatever color I feel like

[oak marsh]

nice!

[oak marsh]

While I am sitting here, if you are into these kinds of things. I dont have much to work with.

[woeful flicker]

Ok, what am I doing wrong. I can't find more living frigates... I have one, created more dream aerials, but I never come across another...

[paper dune]

After ur first dream aerial it’s useless you’ll need anomaly detectors from shooting asteroids to get living to spawn faster

Otherwise you can find them very rarely pulsing regularly

[woeful flicker]

Ok I have anomaly detectors and I use it regularly but it seems to always be some other thing

[plain panther]

when pulsing keep an eye out for the living frigate icon as well, if you don't see that you can keep pulsing until you see it

[woeful flicker]

Ahhhhh ok

[plain panther]

and iirc you can only get 1 per system

[paper dune]

Gotta keep pulsing in different directions most times I get one on my second pulse after 5 min

[woeful flicker]

Thank you so much, I'll get rid of these dream aerials and give this a try

[paper dune]

And it’s one per system so try to mark ones you’ve visited and already got

[woeful flicker]

At this point I'm just exploring new systems so that shouldn't be a problem.

[paper dune]

I believe someone posted cords for s class ones

Hold on

[woeful flicker]

It's ok, I want to find what I find 😁thank you though

[paper dune]

I do suggest the discord hub living tho it’s really colorful and has horns

[woeful flicker]

Ok cool

[proud lodge]

Just as a data point to share, I am playing a new save and am about 30 hours into it and have stumbled across 4 exotics in space stations or trading posts. So, another option is to just play the game and explore and maybe every 7 or 8 hours of play time you are likely to find an exotic.

And, the other option is to obtain all the glyphs, then use NMSCE or similar to go get an exotic that you like.

[rugged sonnet]

i usually just do trade loops and eventually stumble across exotics. earn lots of units and upgrade my suit slots at the same time.

i have a process where i upgrade suit slot, check space station vendors for good tech, check the multitool cabinet, get "kill" missions, and buy all the trade stuff from the space station and the trading post. then go to the next system and sell the trade stuff and start the process again.

can keep an eye out for good ships along the way also. i really dont think its cool to just sit there scanning ships for hours with your visor. kinda sad rly but each to their own

basically don't spend all your time looking for one good ship when you can do lots of other things and eventually the good ships will find you.

[unique moat]

but ship hunting is fun why wouldnt you just do that

[woeful flicker]

First one of the day!

Trading post on paradise planet. Came in on first reload but didn't do it again after so I think I just got lucky.

And my hunt continues 😁

[unique moat]

not bad if you find one like this in red with gold could you post it ?

[woeful flicker]

Of course!

I'm looking for one like this, but white 😁

I found my second living frigate! This thing looks neat!!

Came as an S class also...

[smoky geode]

found this beauty of a living ship

[zenith lotus]

Galaxy?

[pale oyster]

@smoky geodewe need planetary coordinates and galaxy to be able to find it

[smoky geode]

euclid and there is a base computer there

its called living ship location

[pale oyster]

@smoky geodenot sure all players see every base computer

[smoky geode]

really?

[pale oyster]

not sure

[smoky geode]

because i see base computers from other players when i go to populated systems

[winter obsidian]

Pink Fighter?

[paper dune]

Post never said so I assume Elucid

[winter bison]

Which ship has the most balance stats and how to find it ?

[unique moat]

id just go for a ship you like the most they all get the job done if you upgrade them the right way

[winter bison]

Okay thanks

[warm hemlock]

If anyone needs a good ship with storage, I got plenty of ships set up and ready to give away!

[spring tartan]

4 hours 27 mins later of reloading my restored point 🥲🥲

[finite swift]

Think i could get the coords and galaxy to that looks sick

[tender flower]

can anyone go get that living ship?

i thought living ships were only available to the person who did the starbirth stuff

[pale oyster]

nope

[tender flower]

so are they just like, scattered about? to be found?

[pale oyster]

at crashed ship sites....

[tender flower]

ohhh i wouldnt've thought they could spawn at those

[pale oyster]

you have to do the intial quest all the way through the first time

then, get an egg, go activate it far far away, then go to the place where you want the living ship, land, there willbe a crashed ship, you reset the starbirth mission, and the living ship appears

I just teleport to another galaxy to activate an egg, then back to get the living ship. Usually takes me around 10 mins to pick one up for people

[tender flower]

interesting

im in the middle of the starbirth quest right now

[pale oyster]

this is the last one a friend asked me to find, and I kept one myself to be able to give away easily

[tender flower]

wow that is gorgeous

[pale oyster]

best one I have seen

[tender flower]

is there a good resource somewhere to see the different modules that can make up different ship types?

[pale oyster]

no wait...

[proud lodge]

Found this one yesterday in Euclid.

[woeful flicker]

That's very nice

[proud lodge]

I'm not a pod guy. I like the winglets better

[woeful flicker]

I like the big double rear thrusters. I would love to find one with the mini wings, small dorsal and big rear thrusters..

[proud lodge]

Like this? It's my favorite from my main save. Don't trust those glyphs. Unfortunately, I don't know the correct glyphs.

[woeful flicker]

No the double big thrusters

But with little wings and a noise point/ small dorsal

And white

😁

[spring tartan]

Dmed u

[oak marsh]

I had you up to "and white." I have a yellow one that fits all the rest.

[woeful flicker]

Yea I have this one

[pale oyster]

@woeful flickeris this the style you're talking about? It is a Royal Exotic

[woeful flicker]

Yes sir! In white.

[oak marsh]

Oh naw. Nothing like that. I was a good 100 hours into the game before I started messing with exotics and stuff. This is just me learning and exploring the different aspects of the game. I'm actually far more hung up on finding "the perfect system." 😆

[pale oyster]

I have this one

[woeful flicker]

Are those the short thrusters?

But it looks very nice

[pale oyster]

yeah, I think only one I have with the large thrusters are a yellow and blue

[woeful flicker]

My hunt will continue 😁

[woeful flicker]

I could probably look something up but I refuse to

Yep that exactly

In white

[pale oyster]

what platform?

[woeful flicker]

XSX

[pale oyster]

I dont know what that is

[woeful flicker]

Xbox Series X. Sorry.

[pale oyster]

lol, I am old, I don't know gamer terms

[woeful flicker]

I'm old too

Grey beard

[pale oyster]

I just downloaded the white one with large thrusters

[woeful flicker]

But it'll ruin all my searching fun 😁

I'll take it tho since you went through the trouble good sir

[upper pendant]

Esseintaim (or how it's spelled)

[upper pendant]

Which galaxy is this?

[woeful flicker]

Euclid

[upper pendant]

Ty

[woeful flicker]

I'm not sure if those glyphs are where I found that one, I was just showing it

[upper pendant]

oh ok, ty nonetheless

[woeful flicker]

Sorry about that

It was before I found this discord

[proud lodge]

Just found this one in Hilbert Dimension.

[woeful flicker]

Very nice!

[smoky surge]

cool ship

[fluid pagoda]

are you scrolling this channel or stalking me lmao

[smoky surge]

scrolling

why would i be doing the second

got better things to do

[fluid pagoda]

🤷‍♀️

[smoky surge]

~~like scrolling mindlessly

[smoky surge]

that hauler looks good, might go grab it, thanks

[fluid pagoda]

dude.

thats the wonky ass mf asymmetrical cockpit

[smoky surge]

idk i like it

[patent grail]

Some people like the asymmetry, myself included. 😛

[smoky surge]

taken off destiny 2, but this is what i wished explorers looked like

[smoky surge]

I dislike most asymmetry in explorers. the hauler part is fine, though, for some reason

[coarse shoal]

dammit

there

[patent grail]

@smoky surge Probably because asymmetry + hauler unconsciously makes almost any scifi fan think Millenium Falcon. 😉

[coarse shoal]

anyone wanna trade? lol

[smoky surge]

I know the resemblance, and yea, its cool. for me im just at peace knowing its balanced(kinda)

[upper pendant]

The shuttle that wanted to be a fighter (Esseintaim)

[fluid pagoda]

don't know why anyone would want it but

eissentam

[woeful flicker]

This trade post euclid

Dang both exotics I found today were orange...

[coarse shoal]

Are you still able to?

[fluid pagoda]

?

[coarse shoal]

Were you not trading it?😅

[fluid pagoda]

oh, no it just landed in my freighter

the coords are there

just dont know if anyone would want to go and get a red and silver

[coarse shoal]

ah, sorry

[paper dune]

Black and green

Red planet forgot name

Elucid

Purple and yellow

Elucid, blue planet

[uneven tree]

Can't decide, if it's nice or meh

[pale oyster]

@uneven treepersonally, I'd go find a centrifuge or oculus

I have a bunch already, but I may go grab this one that was just shared in a group:

[upper pendant]

Dunno, I find that design sorta flat, if you want to go for that style I'd go for a sentinel's then, since it has more fancy details... Or the one Gix posted

[rugged sonnet]

GL trying to get S class in a t2 economy 😄

[pale oyster]

yeah, people make too much of getting S for freighters. I did when I started, then figured out it was a stupid goal, A is plenty good enough.

[rugged sonnet]

for slots A is plenty yeah but if you want to max out the hyperdrive you gotta go S class

[patent grail]

@rugged sonnet Aint all that hard, if you want a real challenge, try pulling an S Class capital model from a T1 or Abandoned system. (Yes, it is in fact possible lol.)

[rugged sonnet]

just because its possible doesn't mean its a good idea.

[pale oyster]

how often does one need the max hyperdrive? and how many hours do you spend jumping the carrier that much firther, compared to reloading for an S?

[patent grail]

I never said it was a good idea, I said it was a challenge. 😉

[rugged sonnet]

i used to use my freighter to jump to the centre.

[patent grail]

@pale oyster Anytime I want to travel >2000LY, I Portal, in spite of the fact that I have both ships and a Freighter capable of going further.

[pale oyster]

does it take hours longer in an A class? Because it can easily take hours longer to roll an S class freighter, so it needs to have a reasonable payoff for that amount of time

[rugged sonnet]

i have never had to reload more than an hour or so to get an s

but i only hunt freighters in t3 or pirate systems

[pale oyster]

so does it take "an hour or so" less in a S to jump?

[rugged sonnet]

yes

well compared to an A idk but

[pale oyster]

🙂

[rugged sonnet]

like i said before here. there are more benefits than just slots

fleet cordination bonus is also better

[pale oyster]

I know the benefits, I have had S class freighters when I started.

To each their own, I would never refuse an A to keep trying for an S

[rugged sonnet]

my current playthrough im running an A but ill be damnd if im wasting storage upgrades on an A class freighter

im saving them up then when i have enough i will go hunting for a better one

[patent glade]

Hello anyone found some living ships with adjacent supercharged slots 2x2 square or L shape ?

[uneven tree]

That's the thing, minimalistic "box" ship, these boxes can house anything (you one would want to roleplay).

Probly will stay with my current freighter tho.

[plain panther]

In euclid, 41mil for a well upgraded ship

[upper pendant]

You see, that's a bit too much "minimalistic" in my book... yet this made me think

[oak marsh]

Nice find

[plain panther]

(euclid)

[rugged sonnet]

Calypso galaxy. Pirate system.

[oak marsh]

So does everyone get the same living ship to start with? This was the one I got.
