Hunting for S-Class Resurgent

[Yasik]

Hello!
Could you folks comment and confirm that I'm doing this right.
I watched some guide on youtube claiming we dont actually need to wait 3 hours then do 5 jumps to trigger rescue mission. Instead:
- I jump on 3-Star Economy and Outlaw systems only;
- on arrival, I see already spawned fleet with 1 freighter, then after awhile another fleet spawns;
- I fly close and see if this is the type of freighter I want - it must be 'Star Destroyer' type;
- then I just Pulse around the system and trigger fleet spawn hoping this time it will be Resurgent S-Class; if not - then I continue to Pulse around;

If this method is viable, does the freighter size matter, I mean if I warp into a system and see small 2-section Venator - can it possibly be that after some Pulses around the system a large 6-section Resurgent will spawn?
Thanks in advance!

The model will be the same, only the class changes. If you warp in and review the Venator and it has 3 sections and you want one with 6 sections that is A-Class or better, find a different system.

If you think that takes time, back when I started playing during Beyond, you couldn't change the color. You had to farm Class AND color. Sometimes this took all weekend.

If you don't mind using the save editor to 'capture' your ship here are the seeds for an S-Class 'Large" Venator Freighter.

Home Seed: 0x1 (zero, x, 1)
Model Seed: 0x3D576085108C107B (4 zeros not O's)

These are the seeds from my personal Capital S-Class Full size Venator, enjoy :o)

Thanks, but I think I'm not exausted yet my will to get the freighter I want in legit way :)
So if I get it right, if I warp in the system and see 2-midsections Venator, then all Venators in this system will also be 2-midsection? And I want 6-midsection - biggest one, so I leave this system and search elsewhere.
Can it also be viable method to include 2 and 1-star economies? 1% spawn chance is bad, yes, but on average its only 100 pulses, so its like 2 hours only?

[Nabinkemper]

The higher the economy the better chance at the larger ships. Yes, the model will be the same regardless of how often you warp into the same system.

As for the Save Editor, I didn't use the Editor for the first 1,200 - 1,300 hours of my play time. After using it, I can legitimately say it ruined the experience for me.

stick to the pirate systems for a better S-class spawn chance of 5%

So after 4+ hours of warping I found zero Venator type ships in any system, most of those were 3-star economies and Outlaw. Can it be that Venator type spawns only in 'Rescue Mission' and we still have to wait 3 hours and do 5 jumps to trigger that mission?
Also I noticed 'sentinel' Battleship type spawns in Pirate Drednaught event and nowhere else...

yes, sorry i totally forgot that you'd need the 'rescue' mission ...but that's cos i use a mod which makes the 2nd freighter spawn, that system's capital freighter so i usually see wot every system's capital freighter will look like ...and buying the 'right' freighter class is just a matter of pulsing around in-system to force re-spawns until the RNGods smile on me

NB. there used to be a mod that solely did this but it's outdated, there are a couple of mods that do the same thing but as an added feature rather than the purpose of the mod so searching won't find them, i'll add a link here once i've had my morning coffee or maybe someone else will ninja me to it

Wonder if those 5 jumps must be between 5 different systems, or I can bounce between these 2 Korvax so comfortably near each other...

that'll work fine (and if you end up at the 'wrong' system after the 4th warp you can use the station teleport to go tto the other sys - i may have done that a time or two)

With this method I'm pretty sure you can only find system freighters (not the star destroyer or sentinel types)

Even if it did work (it doesnt since you have tested it), it would be a lot slower to pulse drive and spawn an other every time. With the rescue mission, all you have to do is going straight to the space station, make restore point, check freighter, reload if not S class. You can ignore the pirates.

Ok, so now I'm confused about how this system exactly works.

1. Played 3 hours, did 4 jumps, sitting at starbase, made a save by exiting/entering my ship;
2. Warping to nearby system A;
3. System A spawns Pirate Battleship event;
4. Reload, warp to system A, event persists every time I reload;
5. Not satisfied with freighter model, trying to warp to system B;
6. System B does NOT spawn the event;
7. Reload, warp to system C: event does spawn;
8. Reload, warp to system D: no event;

Observations so far:
- both Pirate Battleship and Rescue Mission events can spawn both Star Destroyer and Sentinel battleship types;
- size always the same, class varies;

It's been 2 days already and I'm not feeling like I'm playing the game, and start to ask myself why exactly do I need Large S-class.
I think I will just proceed with my life and check now and then if they maybe add an option to upgrade size and class of freighters, just like we can do with our ships. As a (former) Black Desert Online player, I think I became allergic to anything that involves RNG.
