I was one of the people who commented on the SAL 6830 being left out and the lack of need of shielded cargo holds. Same goes for the jammer. Once you lose the shielded cargo, there is no need for a jammer any more. So to everyone who found this video even more informational than the original, you are welcome! Hands down one of the best designs I have seen in the game so far. It checks all the boxes as far as I'm concerned. Maneuverability, speed, reactor power, grav jumping, looks, and interior pathway design. Just don't ignore key ship skills under "science". Aneutronic Fusion give you more power from your reactor. And by level 60 you can pretty much forget about having to manage energy allocation to your systems. But you have to put some points into Science to unlock this skill. Another key one is "Astrodynamics". You can jump further. This is crucial in early game when your grav drives aren't the best or you run with a heavy ship. (You can tell your ship is heavy simply by the loss of speed. Class A engines for example should allow you 130 max speed. Less than that and you are "heavy" ship. And of course it goes without saying that under "tech" you have to fully unlock Piloting and Starship Design. Piloting is easy to level. Just do the simulator repeatedly once you unlock the Vanguard questline. Starship Design just goes with the territory. I've probably dumped close to a million credits into my design and the more I experiment, the more I lean towards a similar design to what he has done. Because unless you want to fly a flying brick, you need wings that are functional and can take some of the design demands off the main trunk of the ship. Just to be clear, to duplicate his results you really need to have come close to beating key questlines in the game and be a high level 60 to unlock all the pieces. Can you capture Class B and Class C ships in this game? Absolutely you can. But every ship (outside of UC military) I have captured has been poor at best. They might give you access to Class B and C ships early but what is on them isn't even worth keeping. In many cases they function worse than their Class A counter parts. Post edit: His cargo capacity is at 6880. That should be people's target by end game. If you are going to do any crafting and research you need access to resources and the one place you can always access when doing it is your home ship. So no matter what you intend to do with your ship, you need it to also play the role of freighter. Yes, you need a jack of all trades kind of ship. Which this ship design does very well.
@WizeOldWizard
11 ай бұрын
Thanks for the comments, much appreciated. Let’s make a few things clear though: I would highly recommend keeping at least one shielded cargo and a scan jammer on your ship at all times. Contraband is very valuable and at the end of the day, your ship is lacking function without them. 6880 is ROUGHLY the maximum cargo capacity you can achieve with the Basilisk. Of course this number can vary if you save some weight in other places, but that is not the capacity I end with. For me personally, I only need about 6k total cargo, which means the ship only needs 4k total cargo because I now have rank 4 payloads. Thanks for the extra detail you’ve provided for everyone!

@@ADrunkDillweed Actually no. One and only Class C engine in the game has a max speed of 180. It is the SAL 6830. It also has a max power of 2 allowing for six engines total. This particular engine is quest locked. You have to complete a quest that is part of the main quest line and achieve a very specific outcome to even get it offered. I also believe it becomes available at only one location. Neon. I first gained access to this engine at level 39 so I don't even think it has a level requirement. Just a quest restriction. Many of the KZitem builders use this very engine in their builds because it allows for some very large construction options. I run a pretty heavy ship but I can confirm with six of these engines I have a max speed of over 160. Now with that said, these engines come with a massive price tag. 70k credits each. So just for the engines you are looking at needing 420k credits.

Performance and design are of equal importance to me, inside and out. If a ship looks good but doesn’t perform well, then it may as well be a sculpture. Likewise, if a ship performs wonderfully but looks like a soggy turd, you won’t be proud and excited to get in the pilot’s seat and show the Settled Systems what you can do with it. I also take great care to lay out the interiors in a sensible way so that navigating the habs is easy. Everything that I have built (except for the Slab) is the result of a balanced approach where all aspects of the ship have been considered. Unless there is a specific reason to ignore the looks or the interior layout, nothing is an afterthought. Thanks for watching!

Something I noticed from your previous version of this ship and now this current version is that you can modify the two VERY LARGE structural pieces to either side and right behind the cockpit on the top that are 3x1 structural pieces. You can remove these two pieces and replace them with either the curved or even the angular Cargo Hold pieces and add around 1000 cargo per 1x1 hold that you add. Additionally, go to the Red Mile, or the Key if you have it available, and get the upward angular shielded cargo and line the underbelly around the landing gear with them for an upward curving-ish form. You MAY have to replace the landing gear before you do this, but if you get the Nova Tech landing gear from the moon IO, they actually have the best lift and there's a variant that has top as well as left and right anchors for stuff. Finally, as for fuel, I find that two of the smaller fuel tanks provides more fuel than that great big monstrous one and you can plant it in the underbelly using the landing gear I suggested

@albertcollins6317 if you’d like to achieve this, I have some suggestions for you but you’re going to have to fiddle with the builder a bit. First things first, please give my Aetos build a watch. In that one I show how to use the attachment method on controller so that you can more easily control the placement of doors and ladders. When you’re rebuilding the Basilisk with no ladders in mind, you’ll need to remove the lower engineering bay and replace the landing bay that I use with something that has a ladder-entry hatch. Build your entire lower deck first, using the attachment method, and be sure to attach the bridge only after you’re happy with the layout of your lower deck. Once you attach the bridge, build your entire upper deck, again using the attachment method, starting from the upper hatch of the bridge. The game still my want to place some ladders so that’s where your own fiddling and experimenting comes in. Best of luck, thanks for watching!

Very nice build and tutorial. My Defiant is very similar though much more stripped down. For those who mentioned going to four SA 6830 engines, remember to do the math. The very first thing I was going to do when I got to level 60 was get these engines. To keep my ship from looking absolutely stupid, I would have to add a lot of structure (mass). I thought I could address this by only adding four of them. What I found was that in order to outperform the six SA-4330s I already had, I would need five of the 6830s.

The spines go north and south and the passageways go east and west so if you're smart with your layout you can still have access to all parts of your ship but only using the Cabot cockpit as your transfer from top to bottom. Also if you use Vasco on your ship he likes to clip through the floor and block the passages so I had to remove him from my crew.@@jackflash6377

If you create each floor of habs, then move them as a unit onto the cockpit, the layout will have no ladders. I think the 1x1 companionways always force a ladder, so they might have to be left out or staggered.

Actually, I tried that before I settled on three pilot weapon groups. When I replaced the rear turrets, I was much more efficient in combat, so I’ve stuck with it ever since. Now, if you build a version of it with more cargo and decrease mobility, turrets may become necessary. With full mobility though, I think turrets are a waste. Thanks for watching!

Definitely would love some more variation in hab interiors, especially some luxury stuff. Battleships are in the game and are SIGNIFICANTLY larger than the Basilisk. I fought the Camulus in the Aetos II build if you haven't seen it yet. UC Vigilance is another example of a battleship. Considering the Basilisk is a fraction of the size of those ships, it cannot be considered in the same class. It also has excellent mobility, so heavy fighter makes the most sense. Name it whatever you please when you build it of course, but it is still the Basilisk to the rest of the community. The Basilisk was originally built to be the Crimson Fleet's flagship, and even if it wasn't, I still personally would not label it as a UC ship. My character's RP is an independent pilot. Oz does not put all his loyalties into one basket, rather he gains what he can from any faction for his own gain. (I still like the Fleet over the other factions. More personality!)

As you filled the cargo, you’d have to add landing thrust for the ship to even be able to leave the landing pad. In some of these cases you’d be stuck in a location with no ship builder to add landers and no way to get to a location with one.

@@WizeOldWizard I mean that would make it realistic, that is how airplanes work. But yeah in a game it wouldn't be very fun doing math to figure out how junk you can actually carry. That's not even including different planet/moon gravity, 1lb on 1G is 3lbs on 3G. Doesn't sound fun. Lol

@@evandipasquale9255 spot on. Just a little too far on the side of realism. Personally I think the ship builder is the best part of the game, of course it isn’t perfect, but I think they did a great job with the depth and flexibility of it while introducing sensible limitations.

I haven’t unlocked the Sal 6830 engines only the 6330. But how did you get 100 mobility? I only have 67

How much does your ship weigh? You’re at 67 mobility because your engines don’t have enough maneuvering thrust for the mass. So you either need to lose weight (recommended) or grab the 6830’s (easy mission to unlock). Really I’d do both. You want as little mass as your cargo capacity can stand with as much maneuvering thrust as possible (6830’s have the most). If you need cargo space, the Bristleback can provide…

Is there any kind of refund of funds and materials on modules you choose to delete. I like to do prototypes before I pay out any cash!

You get a portion of what you originally spent back if you delete stuff, so unless you have tons of credits, experimenting is really expensive. My outpost guide can show you how to make as many credits as you need if you want to be able to test stuff out.

So you made the Razerleaf into the Basilisk, is that why everyone keeps calling you The Mantis?

Yes, even if you delete the entire Razorleaf and change the name, the game still considers it the Razorleaf. All the interactions are preserved. Thanks for watching!
