S class pirate dreadnought?

[The Ozzie Jedi]

Is it still possible to get one? I've done this about 25-30 times so far and still no S class....

[Darrcelf]

It sure is!

Are you doing this in a pirate system? If so there is a 5% chance of it being S class. If you are in three star economy then it's oy 2%.

At 5% there is about a 35% chance of not rolling an S class after 20 rolls, and 20% chance of no S class after 30 rolls.

The dice have no memory roll a fail 19 times doesn't change the odds in the twentieth roll.

At least for me, there is a pirate dreadnaught fight every time I go into a pirate system. I think it must be bugged right now. Put in a zendesk ticket...because it becomes super annoying after about the 10th time.

I have been working on my pirate rep but you can't warp to deliver the contraband while there is an active fight going on. So I end up clearing the dumb thing and blowing it up so I can leave.

So far, every time I went to talk to the defeated pirate captain, it has always been an S class. I already have a nice S class freighter so not interested in it.

That would be the way to go if you can replicate the bug.

Certain systems will always spawn a pirate dreadnaught fight. About 1 in 5 pirate systems will do this. Allegedly others will, but I have not observed this. To the best of my knowledge this is not a bug.

The dreadnaught always being class S I think would be a bug.

When i got my S class freighter i did 34 reloads, it can take a lot

20-30 times? If you really want an S class you need to finish running the marathon. You're just at the first water station.

Pirate dreadnought are already the easiest dreadnought of them all.

[dreamrider]

The others aren't Dreadnoughts.

Among other things they have no (known) freighter-to-freighter weapons.

Capital Freighters is the term used in the wiki and internally in the game.
(Even though the "Sentinel"-type freighters seem to be based upon the model for the Sentinel "dreadnought".)

yeah that.

Pirate is the easiest due to their availability, others will require you to locate the their spawning system first, Pirate exist in all outlaw system along with an extra capital.

Even more reason to do the grind in an outlaw system.
