Note: the Amun-7 Engines (Class A) produce a higher boost speed than the White Dwarf 3015 engines! I was able to reach a boost speed of 1167 with the Amun-7 at a relatively low mass, which is faster than the 1122 boost speed of the White Dwarf 3015. The White Dwarf 3015 still has the highest cruising speed though, with a max of 280 with all bonuses vs 234 for the Amun-7. So you'll have to take your pick between the highest cruising speed vs a higher boost speed. Thanks to @Ridingharleys for the tip on the Amun-7 boost speed!

His chatting with his daughter can get in the way of some of the other dialogue with ships, so sometimes it's annoying. But now I see he's worth the hassle.

Note that you can get the full 280 speed using Amelia Earhart (piloting rank 2) rather than Sam Coe (piloting rank 4)... the main benefit being Amelia won't judge you for evil actions 🙂.

Well done putting all those stats together and comparing which changes do what. 👍 For me personally top speed doesn't matter. I'm more the "battlecruiser" type: Class C, biggest reactor, biggest shield, more than 3000 cargo, four SAL-6830 engines, six Vanguard Obliterator Autoprojector, six Vanguard Hellfire Autocannon. And the most important part: Mobility close to 100. I definitely use it more like a gunship... 😁🤟
@GuidosGaming
9 ай бұрын
Yeah, my main ship is also a Class C ship. I'm also using the same SAL-6830 engines on that one, so it's still 94 mobility with 10K+ cargo and having all of the habs I want. It has tons of hull/health and the best Class C shield as well, so it can just tank everything. But I'm at a point where that actually makes space combat too easy, even on 'very hard' difficulty. Which is why I switch to the Class A Fighter ship from this video if I want more fun and a challenge. In that ship, you have to be fast and try not to get hit to win space combat, as it's got like half the hull and shield health of my main Class C ship.

Thanks for the info about the White Dwarf engines! I never realized there was a difference! Might be an oversight though since these are the only ones with a different top speed among it's class. Let's hope it doesn't get fixed if that is the case! Btw. i wouldn't call it counter intuitive for class A being the fastest ones. I mean, compare it with car engines. A heavy truck engine might have more power than most car engines, but is designed to pull weight instead of going fast. That's what i see when i compare A to C, C being the truck engine while A resembles the sports car. That also gives the class A engines a purpose that makes it into lategame - creating fast fighters. As a matter of fact, you can beat everything in the game staying class A if you design it right and know how to handle it in fights. Only downside is it's cargo. I already destroyed the legendary Spacer and Ecliptic ships with my class A fighter and am now looking for the Va'ruun one. It's really fun to fly the speedy bois.

Didn't record the exact mass though, and it might've been possible to go slightly lighter than what I got if I went all around the galaxy to find all of the lightest parts. I might do some more tests later - maybe I can figure out a formula with more data points.

It's not strange or "counterintuitive" at all if class C is slower than class A engine, class C is designed for big ship like cargo hauler or battleship/capital ship, the purpose is to have huge maneuvering trust not top speed. it's like trying to compared f-35 to AC130, doesn't makes sense. Only Sam Coe has "hidden" bonus to engine, got nothing to do with piloting skill. Same can be said to Omari Hassan who gives one power pip for shield. The drawback of using White Dwarf 3015 is limited mass allowed for maximum mobility, you can't go over 1020 mass and has to sacrifice shield and cargo to stay max mobility.
@GuidosGaming
9 ай бұрын
About the engines, it's counterintuitive to some, as higher class engines are bigger, higher level, have a higher thrust stat, but are slower. But it does make sense when you know the bigger engines are also heavier and more suited for cargo hauling. I was actually thinking of including an example like you just did in the video, but couldn't think of a comparison between two specific vehicles that'd make sense to everyone. The Piloting skill does give a speed bonus when using any other crew members that have it though, like the propulsion specialist I used in the video. But Sam Coe giving an extra high hidden bonus might be true. Just can't compare as I don't know anyone else with level 4 in Piloting. Edit: this site; inara.cz/starfield/skill/4/, which I"ve found to be a good source for Starfield, says it's a 15% speed boost for crew with rank/level 1 in piloting, and 30% more for crew with rank 2 or higher. Will try to confirm this and find another person to put on my crew with rank 2 or higher in piloting.

Thanks! Will probably do a video on weapons later. Have already been looking into it but it's a pretty big topic. If you want a quick tip; try out the Vanguard Obliterater Autoprojectors. I'm using those on the ship in this video, and you can see me using them at the very start of the video. You'll need to start the UC Vanguard questline to unlock them. They've got a high fire rate, and do good damage to both shields and hull, so you don't have to switch between weapons as much. Since they only use 2 power, you can use 6 of those on your ship, so that's 6x the damage stat you see in the ship builder. And it also means you'll see 6 beams firing when shooting your enemies, which is very satisfying :)

For fallout the first is your pipboy gov and the second is the first person FOV. In Skyrim, it's 3rd person then 1st person. I assume Starfield will be the same as Skyrim in that regard.

There are a handful of ship components like this, they are equal to or better than comparable components in one specific way, but they sacrifice other stats as a result. Compare the a couple of specific A class reactors: Tokomak X-120S: 28 power, 30 Mass, 1.5 Repair Rate, 30 Health, 480 Hull, Req. Level 12, Starship Design 4 Tokomak X-300: 29 power, 45 Mass, 2.25 Repair Rate, 45 Health, 820 Hull, Req. Level 51, Starship Design 4 At first glance, losing only 1 power while saving 15 mass seems like a great deal. But then you notice the slower repair, lower health and significantly lower hull. Both are viable options, you just have to keep in mind what you're going to do with your ship when building it...
