Max number of frigates?

[Chillum]

Title, anyone know if we have a hardcap? I currently have 12 on an A class capital freighter, and just flew up to two fleets with zero options to recruit.

Ive had fleets deny me before but never two, just unlucky? Would be interested in knowing if anyone has reached a hard cap yet either way.

It seems that you can own 50 frigates max.

I can't hire more than 30?

[SternLX]

Thought I read 60 somewhere. But 50 sounds more correct

[xPEDx]

50 fleet. each 5 needs 1 command room, =10 comand rooms =50 fleet.

the max is 30 right now

any tips on finding s class frigates. i'd assume high value systems they seem to cost 10-12 million by my estimation. highest i've found i a small number of A's at 6-7 million

Its cheaper to hire them at C* rank and they level up to S* very quickly.

the ones that start higher seem to have better stats than those i'm levelling can attain. the initial bonuses are more numerous and positive. no stowaway thieves and lazy crews etc

Lol, even the S will still grow in stats, not sure for how long though.

[jxcorso]

Yeah, it will be 50 eventuallyt but for now they capped it at 30... sadly lol

Anyway to sell off, or disband frigates?

[jxcorso]

Not as of yet... sadly lol

My S class frigates have been in the 8-9M range.

Yes,

You can delete them the same way you scrap an item, go to the panel on the bridge, Command panel that lists all your ships . and scrap them there. there is no prompt but it works.
