I loved how you did an expanded view build display and drag-and-drop parts showcase for the design. This is a great way to show the build quickly and effectivly and the first time i seen anyone present it like this. Cheers

[@TuanHoang-zy7of]

Building your own ship to fit your character is truly an amazing feature of this game. I always find myself end up with the biggest and meanest ship that fly at the speed of turtle XD

[@squirrellordsgaming2772]

I just built my first custom ship from the ground up last night. It’s pretty slow but it’s heavily armored and shielded and it’s got a good amount of fire power. I’m having fun playing around with the ship editer now that I have the appropriate skills.

[@zachprynn2545]

Hey, nothing wrong with a slower more bulky ship. If you haven't already, invest in turret weapons, they will keep the pressure on even when you can't focus your main weapons on your target

[@squirrellordsgaming2772]

[@legend7951]

@@zachprynn2545 I agree, a lot of the time you don't need a fast ship, especially in combat where a fast ship can make it hard to keep a target on an enemy.

[@zibzig5946]

This has been my favorite ship build video! More ship action throughout and cinematic shots. Thanks for the great time!

[@SilentSooYun]

Very nice! This thing is sooo fast! For me, I would replace the All-In-One with a HopeTech Armoury, which gives us a Brig to carry prisoners. Now you can use the bed in the Brig as well, but if you still need living quarters, replace the engine mounts with a HopeTech All-In-One for that Space-Dawg look

[@GremlinSciences]

I think replacing the braces might also save a bit on weight, or at least be just as light? I just remember that all the structure pieces are quite heavy for how little they offer, and I don't touch any of them except the weapon and utility mounts.

[@ihznt]

dude i thought i was dumb the first time i tried to make a ship, everything was so overwhelming and i just walked away. however, after watching *THIS* video- oh my god. fudgemuppet, you're amazing at making confusing systems and UI so easy to understand, down to the core. I haven't stopped upgrading my ship this entire playthrough, and it's all thanks to you :D

[@raymondcarire5918]

I love it!!! Been watching you guys for years now and you never disappoint. I couldn't wait for Starfield to release and now that it has I've been loving all the vids you guys make. Keep up the good work looking forward to seeing everything you come up with. 😊

[@TaylorSmith-godbucket]

Uh muh gawd, this build is amazing! I've been getting my butt handed to me in the damn Kepler R for years it seems. This build is amazing!!! I can't wrap my head around how this tiny ship has a greater hull size than the Kepler or Freestar Renegade, but I'll take it! Instead of the railguns you use I couldn't find them so I used the Vanguard Auto obliterator or whatever, 4 of them. Works like a champ! Thanks so much!!!! (PS next time slow down during the build, I had to pause and rewind a lot!)

[@magegod989]

For anyone wondering you can buy the landing gear at hopetown at lvl 15 and starship design rank 1. Or at the beginning of the game you can board one of the crimsion fleet ghost ships that attack you and take it. It cost about 4500 to register and comes with two of the hopetech landing gears as well as the cockpit and bay that is in this build. Then once you hit the requirements for more of the landing gears go to hopetown and copy the ones you have so theyll have the same paint job. You could rp as your character is wanting a ship that reminds them of one they lost or one they planned to build before working for argos.

[@thatidiotoverthere6311]

Finally a ship-builder youtuber that gets my feel

[@fictionalrpseries]

Hey Guys, Just wanted to show some appreciation. i have been using all of your builds at least once, the elder scrolls and Fallout builds. I have been looking forward to the starfield builds, we all knew they were coming xD Thanks for the many years of amazing videos and Builds and keep it coming.

[@Gabranicus]

I'm putting in my vote for a Psyker build. mainly using the 'manipulation' type skills at the bottom of the social tree. I went with the sculptor background because it gives you Medicine and Persuasion to start. I roleplay that he used to be a famous sculptor until a degenerative disease took his eyesight, in a desperate move he signed up for an experimental treatment which was actually a front for them to experiment with injecting terrormorph dna into a human (Alien DNA trait), which is the source of hi psychic abilities. to round him out i went with the Empath and Extrovert traits. Also lasers.

[@priest9235]

Cannot waaait for a smuggler themed build and ship combo, you guys have been the GOAT for me since skyrim.

[@nolgroth]

Neat build. The Crimson Fleet Ghost was the basis for my Bounty Hunter's first ship. Totally fits the "fringes of space, grey morality, bounty hunter" vibe.

[@susinok]

I love the way you show the ship and put it together. It is so easy to follow! As with your Skyrim Builds, I want to play all of these!

[@iq0234]

I've watched this several times and I can't wait for the Bounty Hunter build.

[@Zayphar]

A bounty hunter ship has to have a brig, so you definitely have to go with the larger design. You can go with the Hopetech Amory 2x1 instead of the 2x2, which suprisingly enough, also has a brig cell! And the Bounty Hunter should have only 2 weapon systems, 12 bars of auto-PARs to get multifunction attacks(shield&hull at the same time), and EM weapons to disable a ship so you can take in your bounty alive if that is what the bounty calls for.

[@SsjRedneck]

That's a nice opinion your trying to force on everyone but maybe just maybe other people interpret what a bounty hunter is in their own way

[@squirreltakular9049]

I just built a slimmed-down Class B version of this. Managed to cram 4x particle cannons, 2x missile launchers, and 1x EMP weapon on it. 100 mob and 180 speed, but less fuel than your build. Very fun to fly. Thank you for the great guide. Subscribed.

[@panedrop]

I really like that spacesuit and helmet look. So tough and it fits well with the aesthetic of the ship.

[@paulliston8561]

Epic build! I have been waiting for someone to showcase more custom "star wars inspired" designs, instead of just making the Razor Crest or Millennium Falcon. This reminds me of so many of the Old Republic ships from Tales of the Jedi

[@LordDreadwolf]

My first character was a Bounty hunter, and I ended up doing the Mantis quest pretty early. I fell in love with the Razorleaf because it was almost exactly what I wanted to make, small-ish with a cabin to sleep in with an armory for her weapons, made some modifications to it and boom it's a fast hard hitting ship with a story.

[@gabrielcarrasco9078]

Not only that, enemies flee when they see you piloting the Mantis.

[@ratorres3]

[@slixkkdemon17]

Yes! This is exactly what i’ve been waiting for! I have a ship build i have called “Silverwing”, but i just couldn’t get it quite as small as i’d like, however i love it still! The ship building system has me soooo happy, and I was so intimidated by it at first, your pirate ship guide cracked the code for me, and got me to invest some serious hours in the starship workshop! lol, another great video!

[@taijeronv]

Great build! This is my new daily driver with some tweaks to fit how I play. I added an additional hab at the cost of adding 1x1 to the length of the ship. I have a captains quarters and on the second deck a Deimos armory for the brig. It has almost 1k in cargo space although I could probably trim it down or eliminate it altogether. It carries eight total guns plus some EM for boarding purposes. The only con if you could call it that is that mobility is between between 80-90 but it still runs fast. Based on how I fight the mobility isn't an issue. If I get into trouble I start kiting, no big deal.

[@Entrée3K]

This has become a design I always rebuild every NG+! The only modifications I do are Horizon weapon mounts on both sides of the landing bay and I change the Deimos spine behind the cockpit to the one with 3 weapon mounts. This way you can stack on as many weapons as you need while retaining the 3 engine build. I really hope you put out some more ship build videos!

[@adin8217]

just started a bounty hunter build this is will be perfect once i get the lvls! drifting around asteroids while fighting ppl is prob the one coolest things ship battles can provide IMO

[@Waffles_305]

So hyped for this build upcoming didn't think it would come so soon!

[@Euphorya]

Love this build so much. Maybe I missed it, but one thing that would be cool in these videos is to get a ballpark of the credit cost of building the ship.

[@Zilmayjaink]

Definitively, ship building is so cool but requieres a lot of money. So this shipbuilding should be tied to the bounty hunter build, due to the skills and money required to build this ship

[@SirGrisleMeadtheCantankerous]

Built this ship lastnight its awesome, I was able to squeeze 2 more weapon mounts out by using the deimos spine c aft it has s angled and one top so you can mount weapons lower closer to the cockpit.

[@Xariann]

I had just asked you "Ship builds WEN" and here it is hah. The cockpit really has a Star Wars feel. Love this build.

[@kazanali5396]

I love how @FudgeMuppet was able to predict Modders adding functionality to brigs and opening up Bounty Hunter RP. Useful brigs paired with Non-Lethal Framework plus the patch for them makes for a fairly vanilla experience. =)

They say the best things come in small packages. That a little ripper 👍

[@et3inuyasha]

You've done a Freestar gunslinger, a Crimson Fleet pirate and soon a bounty hunter. Can't wait to see what's next. My most recent playthrough's been what I've been calling my "Vanguard Swashbuckler" - a melee weapon build with a UC cutlass and a pistol for backup (or Terrormorphs. Seriously, don't fight those things in melee. ) And for a ship, I modified a Deimos Phalanx-class, slapped a class C reactor on it and gave it laser turrets for stripping shields, railguns for shredding the small fry and EM suppressors for taking ships as prizes.

[@phoschnizzle826]

The Nova Galactic Captain's Quarters give you a bed, a galley, and a massive 150kg storage chest. I agree with the vibe of the Armstrong cockpit, a small ship should be as compact as possible.

[@garytihlarik711]

Thanks for the build. It is super fun to fly thru astroid fields. One of my favorite ship builds.

[@RealGabagool]

[@ArtThingies]

I say this as a really positive thing: this ship is basically just a souped-up version of the Crimson Fleet Ghost in the best way! I think that ship is the perfect base for this ship to be built from and most of all, it means it fits perfectly with the designs in Starfield!

[@BrycePerry]

Also, absolutely love the individualized ships for all the character builds.

[@tg6301]

Offset is nice. Like idea of the roleplaying brig, but just to make it more functional for the game without straying to far, maybe a command center for more crew slots, giving you more boosts with added crews for skills in dogfighting.

[@otarrecchannel710]

I LOVE that compacted ships. Less is more.

[@wtfronsson]

Instead of an all-in-one, living quarters, or captain's quarters, you can use a Hopetech or Taiyo armory. Those actually have beds in the armory. So every time you head out for a mission, you also get to look at the things on your way.

[@fidgetelftree9432]

At first I was shocked when I read this, but looking at the armory habs you mention made me realize you could sleep in the mini brig in those habs. For some reason it just didn’t click before that that’s a practical bed, instead of just aesthetic.

[@Paulunatr]

I'm not sure whose designs I like more- yours or the ones Morphologis makes. Given that he's a professional architect in real life I think that's a pretty big compliment for you guys.

[@wesleygibson5546]

The Nova unique vendor has landing gear that gives you 4 thrust for 1 slot. It still weighs 4 for 4 thrust, but it allows you to build smaller.

I am doing kind of the bounty hunter build, I first tried the Goliath ship build, amazing, but I had to try this one and... soooo satisfying !!! The speed and mobility !!!! I did it to took my revenge on the Camulus... sadly the quest bugged out and I cannot find the ship anymore... 😢

[@BeGrizzlyStrong]

Use a thin docker on the bottom. Opens up that space between the landers to double the cargo. Also use the Deimos spine that allows for three weapon mounts. You could have 3 auto turrets and three manual turrets. 6 total particle beams blasting away. There are also a better set of engines. SD something or other.

[@benjaminrabuzin9957]

I was able to use this video to make to coolest ship just at b class ship level and level 1 ship design. Thank you so much for this

I fit out first the Razorleaf, and then a Mako, to be my fighter class. But I want to try out this build now. With my Mako showing Speed 180, I was very happy with that.

[@DOOM891]

if you capture a crimson fleet ghost (can be done as soon as you can freely travel, look for destroy missions from cidonia) it's basically this ship, has 2 of the landing gears, same cockpit, same bay. it's a good starting point if this is the ship you want to build.

[@Jamesfrf]

[@corygerhards4817]

I feel like the Nova Braces should be replaced with the all-in-one and the current hab should be be one of the 2X1 armory habs with a mini-brig to give the hunter a cell to put their bounties in

Such a dope looking ship!

[@DennisAH]

AMAZING Build...! Thanks so much. I built my own Loco Hornet, pretty similar, love the gear especially! BUT Dude... I was literally searching my ass off looking for that reactor. Although my skills are all maxed out at 4/4 (Piloting, Space ship design) I only found out via the inara database that you also need to be level 52 to buy it. I´m 48, so that´s why I cannot use it yet. You might want to consider mentioning this so people don´t get frustrated and throw rocks at you. ;)

[@Lightning_JC]

Spent some time putting this together today. Had to make some changes, I fly first person and that cockpit is awful for visibility, I swapped it for the samurai enhanced and then swapped the spine b for a nova cowling 1L-TF. Looks pretty sweet and no obstructions in the cockpit, also has a bit more space for the crew.

[@cibs101007]

Quick tip, but if you change the Hab to a 2x1 Hope Tech Armory, you can still have a brig on the smaller variants (as well as still having a bed)

[@SpittinSquirell]

Great video! I usually fly the Mantis. I like the armory and have filled it out with legendary or unique weapons. I wish they wouldn't all be moved to storage though anytime I mess with the ship.

[@ImRuined666]

I understand that the Nova structure in the back was there for aesthetic purposes mostly, but replacing it would have allowed an additional 2x1 hab, meaning that a Control Station could have been included, increasing crew slots and combat effectiveness... There is also a side-mounted 1500 point Class B shield, IIRC...
