What's the absolute best ship in the Starfield?

[Ahmed Qutb]

Hi,

As the subject suggests, I would like to know what's the very best ship.
I mean the one and only that you won't have to upgrade after or switch.
Credits are not an issue of course as I'll be saving up for that one only and also upgrading the commerce skill to the max.

Thanks in advance.

Try increasing difficulty...

Why? Pretty sure I'm just on whatever the default experience is, I've not changed it to my knowledge, so I assume that's what most people are on. Some enemies are already enormous bullet sponges, I can't imagine the game will be more fun if they get even higher HP bars to chew through.

Then dont advice people space shuttle lol enjoy the game.

Razorleaf from Mantis quest triggered by reading a Secret Post log.
But if you know how to modify a ship, any ship can eventually share the same stats.
Currently I find the best combat ship would involve C class reactor, B class shield (1450 without perks) and A class engine (max speed 180 without perks), with cargo and mass limitation

Razorleaf is a great mid-ship. Unfortunately it lacks power for all your systems, and the jump distance is quite low. But as you mentioned with C- and B-upgrades you can improve it a lot. At that point you might as well go for C all the way though.

Razorleaf, since its the only one with a Perk. Sure its just class a, but you can easly upgrade it.

I don't want people to flee though, I want to kill or board them :)

If I'm right you can't have 180 speed and 100 mobility with spare power for weapon system for all C-class parts.

It depends on if you want to haul lots of cargo, or want more combat focus. The best ship will probably be one you build, if you have the "ship engineering" skill unlocked and taken the time to understand the build system. You can also modify/upgrade the base ship (Frontier) to a Class C, if you put in the effort.

I haven't bothered to build ships yet (a bit of a time sink, but it's a cool feature). If you want to buy, my suggestions are Abyss Trekker (combat focused, found on Paradiso), Shieldbreaker (balanced, found on New Atlantis) and Narwhal (balanced but slightly more combat focused, found on Neon/Ryujin enterprises).

You can reach 100 mobility but you will lose speed to around 140 if I remember correctly. You can't flee or kite anymore, but it doesn't really matter if nothing can kill you or get away from your 3500-4000 range beams.

For me? Fully upgraded Frontier.

The best ship is the one with enough cargo space to hold all your loot.

Just set up an outpost somewhere with low gravity, put a landing pad next to it and you have all the storage you could possibly want. Including containers you can dump resources into and use in crafting, without needing to hold them. That way you don't need thousands of cargo space and can have a zippy ship for dog fights in space.

Imagine implying someone cant give advice and tips because they dont play on a higher difficulty. What a horrible bad take to have.

There's no real point to buying a 'better' ship just to alter it. Buying ships is never as cost effective as building your own. So my answer is "The Frontier", because you get it for free and can turn it into the best possible ship you can fly.

Nah, the opposite is true actually. Building your own you pay for 100% of the parts. Starting with a (presumably already good ship) you can customize it to your liking for much less cost.

[Lemiarty]

The best ship is the one you build yourself that suits how you intend to use it and looks the way you like it.

[jonnin]

The C class kepler is free, and has a lot of what you need already installed. Between the price, class, and default setup nothing else comes close. It still isn't anywhere near as good as something you build or modify yourself.

The best ship is the one you build yourself, nothing else can compare.
That said, I do believe people like the Ecliptic Claymore 3 if you really don't want to do any ship building.

^^^Word^^^
The Claymore is also one of the best for re-configuring in the shipbuilder, I've used it more than any other model.
