How to Build Halo's ICONIC Charon-class Light Frigate in STARFIELD - NO MODS

[@VantaGenesis]

Most of the parts come from Akila City, New Atlantis, Hopetown and Neon. The engines, fuel tank and large rear cargo are all from a pre-built ship called the Kfir (other engine locations: inara.cz/starfield/ship-module/1424/ ) and the rest of the parts from the original were sold to help fund the build. With the Kfir, the cost of this exact build rounds out to roughly 130,000 credits, and without the Kfir, roughly 220,000 credits. These totals can also be lowered substantially by changing your choice of weapons and essential components. Hope this video helped!

[@Shorkshire]

if you ever find what city those engines are at, let us know. I cant find em anywhere and i know you got lucky finding a ship with them already equipped

[@AndresAlvarez-zc4xo]

for some reason it doesn't allow me to put the cockpit over those things, what could be the problem?

[@Shinzon23]

So use the Kfir as the base?

[@VantaGenesis]

@AndresAlvarez-zc4xo It seems like the biggest issue people run into is choosing the wrong cockpit. The Overseer 300 is unique in that it is one of 2 bottom-entry cockpits, so it is designed to not conflict with a habitation module being placed below it. If you don't have the Overseer 300 yet, you can find it at HopeTown, and HopeTech's other cockpit model works as long as there is a 1x1 storeroom behind it :)

[@VantaGenesis]

@Shinzon23 Yes, although I l've heard it is quite expensive to purchase outright. If you can steal a Kfir or other ship with those engines, or are okay with compromising for a different type of engine, that would definitely be the route to take because I don't believe anyone has found a location to buy the SA-4110's.

[@SPF9000]

Now make an outpost on Eridanus II Themed after Reach. Yes its ingame, Yes the planet looks like Reach, Yes the Civilian outpost KINDOF looks like it could be UNSC.

[@VantaGenesis]

I already started an outpost on Eridanus II for that reason, and I've gotta say, the resemblance is remarkable in the mountains region. Feels like I'm back playing through Tip of the Spear

Can confirm, I was unaware that they had a Level 27 requirement to even see them in the vendor (thanks bethesda) and I was around level 10 when I started this build. Hopefully they implement something to show locked parts, like they do with parts that require certain perks.

[@nightshadedawn]

This was an incredibly easy tutorial to follow along with, thank you for making this. Now we just gotta see if modders can expand the build size so we can have even bigger ships cause this has got to be one of the coolest things about the game and we're locked by size.

[@VantaGenesis]

Thank you, I'm glad I could help! As far as ship size goes, I'm not sure we'll see much of an increase mostly due to landing area restrictions; I landed this build at a farm for a quest and the end of the MAC cannon was only a few centimeters from touching a barn, but since when has a little clipping stopped modders?

[@TheInebriatedMic]

I will definitely be making one of these. Thanks for the tutorial.

Great tutorial man, never would of thought it was your first time making one. Hope to see more from you in the future, keep up the great work!

[@VantaGenesis]

Thank you, I'm glad it was up to the youtube standard! I've already got more builds and guides on the way soon :)

[@zTxMeta]

Very clean build, I did some experimenting while adding onto this to make in more endgame viable to get a C-class reactor and grav drive in there. Simply adding a 1x1 companionway where the cockpit is, then placing the cockpit on top of that lets you move the "upper jaw" of the frigate up one more space. Letting you put the brand of C-Class reactor that has front and back facing connectors in the space. Then it was just slapping on the guns I wanted, doing all that though might make you chunkier than the landers can handle, so you'll have to put on some extra ones on the sides of the habs

[@postpwnmalone]

moving those major parts as one piece gave me PTSD of the dreaded "Unattached module" noti

[@VantaGenesis]

The controls depend on your platform, but if you're on PC you can double click the ship, and whatever is disconnected won't light up orange. Hope that helps!

[@postpwnmalone]

@@VantaGenesis yes I learned that the hard way lol

[@leejones9338]

👌 great watch. I'm always having issues with cockpit not conneced to docking bay warning, I. Used the Deimos docking bay and toying with the big bridge with this build, not having much luck.

[@VantaGenesis]

If it says the cockpit is connected to the landing bay and not the docker, then it comes down to an error with where the docker is placed. If it's both, and you're using a different bridge from the one I showed, it may be rear-entry and require a 1x1 module behind it.

[@loganphillips4391]

Can’t wait to use this along a custom made pelican I had built on my first play through can’t wait to finally do everything I’ve wanted in my second run through the game

[@ReignOmegaify]

That is an awesome looking ship

[@Fokkas]

Didnt have all the parts so I tried to make do. I was not able to snap the cargo boxes onto the side flairs on the fore, where the fuel tank is. And I didnt have the right docker, but for some reason the docker says its not connected to the cockpit

[@VantaGenesis]

For the fuel tank you would need one that has snap points on the sides, or swap the grav drive and fuel tank around to attach the cargo boxes to that. For the docker, if you are using one of the full-sized 1x1 dockers, I believe they are only enterable from the opposite side of the docking ring, not from the sides. Otherwise it may be an issue of using a different cockpit which is not connected to the habs properly

[@Fokkas]

Yeah I fixed the fuel tank swap with grav drive but I had to downgrade the drive. And as for the cockpit l, it's a Daimyo Enhanced Cockpit (couldn't find yours yet), and had to add a Taito companionway 1x1 bottom A with the Connect Pro Docker Top on that. Now it works. It's not perfect until I get more parts and a higher level but it's functional. Would love to upgrade to class B or C for better jump drives

[@Fokkas]

I also replaced the middle 1x3 hab to a 3 and 1 Berth for aesthetics

[@moonshinetheleocat1235]

You may want to increase your jump range. You need at least 28ly to make it to the farthest stars from their closest neighbors

[@VantaGenesis]

Thanks for the tip! I didn't expect the amount of positive feedback I would get from this build. When I built it for myself I was planning on it just being a cosmetic replica, but I'm seeing a lot of feedback from people who want to use it as their main ship for their playthrough. Definitely considering a full guide with prices and locations as a follow-up

Great video! That weapon system is called At -Lattle, it's for throwing javelins which is a great name for a missile launcher really.

[@jsullivan649]

It’s nice to see simple, straight forward videos on builds… the number of people making “builds” while glitching parts all over the place is beyond annoying. Half the starwars ones I really like were glitches I can’t do on PC it seems fml also if you like, you could put Taiyo side caps along the ship to seal it off and make it look flush

[@VantaGenesis]

I can say confidently that no build I upload will include mods, tweaked ini files or glitched parts, unless I make a separate series for modded builds. I know your pain from trying to build cool settlements in Fallout 4 back in the day, it was incredibly frustrating to get 3/4 of the way through a video to find you need something modded or glitched.

Man I wish we could set the ladders for all those big multi-floor ships. The randomly set ladders drive me absolutely insane. It's so incredibly frustrating thinking you built the perfect ship only to find that the inside is a fucking maze.

[@VantaGenesis]

I'm not sure what dictates the ladder placement, but swapping modules back and forth from your current ones until you get a different layout may help! I got mine to have a single ladder which spans all the way from the bottom deck to the cockpit, and with one jump from a power boost pack you can go up the entire thing

[@christianwalser888]

Im on xbox and my cock pit doesnt serm to have an interior connection to the landing bay. I built most of the ship in my private dockyard but i dont have access to the cockpit you selected so now im just trying to make it servicable until i can fly around and find that specific cock pit

[@VantaGenesis]

Before I found the Overseer 300 I temporarily used HopeTech's smallest cockpit and connected a 1x1 module to the back. It didn't look great but it worked, I actually cobbled this ship together almost entirely with this method of using temporary parts, then swapping them out when I found the right stuff

[@theunderdog9353]

Dude that looks so cool. Only piece of criticism I have is maybe wait until you unlock C-class ship parts. The C-class stuff (like reactors etc) are like 3 times as big in C-class

[@VantaGenesis]

I already unlocked the C-class components and didn't intend on scaling the frigate around those, as the reactors and grav drives are all massive and I didn't want to sacrifice space from the already-small habitation section. The upcoming Pillar of Autumn build, however..

[@jamespatrick98]

I’m playing on console and I seriously think they forgot to add the mechanic that allows you to rotate certain parts because I cannot attach the cargo holds to the fins no matter what I try

[@VantaGenesis]

I imagine that would be because the cargo holds aren't being attached to the fins, they're attaching to the snap point on one of the vital components between the rails of the MAC cannon :) If the component that lines up with the cargo hold doesn't have a snap point on the side, you may need to exchange it for one of the other two next to it, or a different version of that component which does have side snap points. Hope this helps!

The main problem people seem to have with the bridge not being connected, is that they use a different bridge.

[@gonzaloalvareztostado6555]

[@VantaGenesis]

Bethesda doesn't tell you directly, but you need to level up to unlock certain parts. I was around level 12 when I started this build, and if you want to get ahold of the engines before you reach level 27, you will need to get them from another ship (The Kfir or the Galileo) and build the frigate from it instead.

[@VantaGenesis]

My base ship was a stolen Kfir, although the only components left from it are the engines, fuel tank and rear 10T Hauler cargo hold. It sounds like you may have the wrong cockpit and reactor, I am using a Class-B reactor in this build. The cockpit is specifically the Overseer 300, which is unique in that it's one of 2 cockpits which utilize bottom entry rather than rear entry. The Overseer 300 can be found at the HopeTown landing zone, almost any other cockpit will require a 1x1 storeroom behind them, and possibly more clearance below them if they are larger. Hope this helps!

How do you collect all of the pieces for the ship in one place. When I delete a part of a ship it does not go into a storage it just gets sold. So I am wondering then how you collect pieces from multiple areas to build the ship since you can not stockpile and then use them when you want.

[@VantaGenesis]

The way I built it was by starting with a base ship, in my case it was the Kfir so that I could access the SA-4110 engines before reaching level 27. Then I took this Kfir between New Atlantis, HopeTown, Akila City and Neon, until I had a completed frigate. However I don't recommend this if you are over level 27. My current recommendation is to steal a ship and take it to your own outpost with a ship builder landing pad, delete everything from the original ship, and build the frigate from scratch. The only part you would still need to visit a landing zone for would be the Overseer 300 cockpit from HopeTown.

Can we see a gameplay video showing this in action?

[@VantaGenesis]

Definitely considering it after the incredible amount of positive feedback on here and Reddit, might make another video soon with more info and footage of the ship :)

[@kevinmcmillin870]

@@VantaGenesis Thanks that would be really cool. Also I would like to see you try and make a republic frigate from Star Wars I don’t think any one has done that one yet.

How do I get ship parts at different vendors without equipping them on the spot?

[@haloplayer6942]

Awesome thanks!

[@VantaGenesis]

You're welcome!

[@themanjrock2]

Hey . What was the basic ship did you use to start this off ?

[@VantaGenesis]

The starting ship was a Kfir, which was stolen from a dead pilot. Only the engines, rear cargo hold and fuel tank are left in the build

[@themanjrock2]

@@VantaGenesis thanks.

[@The_Undead_Ghostrider]

Can you try the paris class next? It is in my opinion the best looking in the halo time line well done with this build looks amazing im working to make my own UNSC GHOSTRIDER just need the creds keep makeing amazing ships.

I haven’t got the game but when I do I wanna try and Make In Amber Clad as that’s my favourite of the frigates

It's honestly a shame how she went out, definitely could have been prevented. RIP to the crew

[@Xwx_Snow_xwX]

I can’t seem to find the sa-4110 engine

[@VantaGenesis]

The SA-4110 engine requires Level 27 to buy at ship builders, I got mine by stealing a ship called the Kfir and then built the frigate from that. The Galileo also has the SA-4110 engines.

@@VantaGenesis ah ok im lvl 26 currently

[@mazda9588]

tried this and i did everything perfectly, except i keep getting the "landing bay needs to be connected to the cockpit" error message and i cant for the life of me get it to go away! i was going to finish this first and then go to the other landing zones in order to get the exact hope tech cockpit you have which might fix the issue, but since i cant get that error message to go away i cant do it without scrapping the build! help please?

[@VantaGenesis]

I'm here to help! If you're using the other small HopeTech cockpit, you should be able to connect a 1x1 storeroom behind the cockpit temporarily, until you can find the bottom-entry Overseer 300 at HopeTown

[@marioderas1175]

Is it flyable tho? Can you post a video of it in combat?

[@VantaGenesis]

It is flyable, and is quite a monster with the right loadout. Working on a video right now to showcase more of this build!

[@A_motivated_dude]

Could someone tell me how many credits he ends up spending in total? just to get an idea of how many credits I have to save

[@VantaGenesis]

This build was somewhere close to 120,000 credits

[@A_motivated_dude]

@@VantaGenesisthanks man, your build’s are amazing 👌

[@Leif-Eriksson]

You have several pieces from the pirates there. Have you completed the Crimson Mission yet? Or are the parts also available from the Ship Service Outpost?

[@renaigh]

the problem with a lot these videos I've noticed is the lack of an interior showcase.

[@VantaGenesis]

Sorry about that! This guide was my first attempt at this kind of video and I wasn't expecting this much exposure, but all of my guides moving forward will feature some kind of showcase for the exterior and interior. Thank you for the feedback! :)

[@HQfalcon]

How much crew can you fit in your ship? Just wondering

[@chrisrogers4242]

Is it possible to change the forward assembles into crew habs?

[@VantaGenesis]

If you're talking about the top half of the MAC cannon, you absolutely can. The only reason I didn't is because I'm a stickler for unified design and wanted the sides to look the same as the landing gear casing on the bottom :)

[@brandon275058]

How many credits did it cost

[@VantaGenesis]

The engines, fuel tank and large rear cargo are all from a pre-built ship called the Kfir, and the rest of the parts from the original were sold to help fund the build. With the Kfir, the cost of this exact build rounds out to roughly 130,000 credits, and without the Kfir, roughly 220,000 credits.

Can you try to recreate The Pillar of Autumn

Don't tell them about my secret plans!!

show us inside

[@terminator2264]

I cant Figure Out why my Mass is so much cause its at at 1380 or so and low maneuverability and I think its because I'm at starship level 2 not 4 and I can't get those engines yet but idk

[@alphalegion753]

It would have been nice to tell us where to get the damn parts

I have many questions but how many credits did this cost and where do you get most parts? Possibly a video on this
