    Lasers, missiles, and ballistics are not what you want. Proton beams are the way to go - the range on those things can engage other ships before they are even close enough to get a shot off. The Frontier can be improved by lightening it up with the removal of unnecessary weight (you don't need the two front landing gear, for example) and focusing on just the needed systems. The real problem with the Frontier is the engines, and Bethesda doesn't do a good job of explaining how their ship mechanics work. Fewer engine bars means the engines are more efficient - less power input required to achieve maximum thrust. What would be nice is if the game would allow you to keep an inventory of parts you strip from stolen ships, and use those as you see fit on other builds.

    • @HalfwayNuts
      @HalfwayNuts  Рік тому +3

      I thought about going with proton beams but I wasn’t trying to get too crazy with this build and this is how I currently have it set up. I have proton beams on one of my other ships and it works just like you said.
      I can’t just take the front landing gear off… then it’ll look like crap, like a incomplete Lego set or something. I suppose if literally all you care about is efficiency then sure, but I couldn’t bear to look at it in that state with no front landing gear.
      As far as there the engines are concerned, a lot of people, including myself, still don’t fully understand the best way to upgrade those. I just figure I add more weight, then I need more thrust. It’s a new game and we’re still getting to know it, eventually we will figure it out.

      Yes, deffinitely. 4+4 proton turrets + 4 manual proton cannons in case AI goes vegetable and youll tear trough anything. Though you do need to rebuild the Frontier a "bit". Or get a new starship, which would probably be cheaper and easier, but it wouldnt be Frontier.

      For an early game upgrade just strip the weapons, Change the guns to either 4 or 6 particle beams And 2 suppressors. Makes the ship way puncher and the suppressors make piracy easy.

      YES! Let us transfer parts between ships! Right out the gate at the Return to Vectera mission, I managed to capture one of the lv. 14 Va'ruun ships, with better weapons and a 20 power reactor. But barely any cargo space, less range, and weak engines. I've also captured a number of Spacer fighters with Design III level engines. I ended up rebuilding the captured HV ship around that better reactor, but I'd much rather have ripped out the guns and reactor and stuck them on the Frontier.

    Use the Varuum Hymn or Stroud-Eckland Gallileo as a starting point. They have the SA-4110 Engine which combined with engines like those on the Frontier, you can get a around 900lb of cargo on your ship. Once you get to Starship design level 2, you can put 6 SA-4110 Engine on to the ship. The ship maintains its streamline shape but loses dead space between the wings over time becoming more like the Millenium Falcon. I trash the 2 gigantic fuel tank wings and replace that space with all the 2x1 modules that they make. I also tore off the top of the left wing and put a Hope Tech front docking port there. I tore off the awesome looking braking thruster under the nose and used a Taiyo front loading bay under the bridge instead and moved the left over landing leg to where the old side bay was. Finally I slapped in a 2x2 battlestations bay, 3x1 engineering bay and 2 giant Galleon side cargo pods. This thing carries something like 2000lbs, 150 top speed, max mobility/maneuverability, 520 shields, every 2x1 hab that stroud eckland makes. 23 output reactor, 27thrust grav drive. Jumps 25ly at a time. Has 4 auto particle beams, 4 autocannons & 4 ATLATL missile launchers. All this and it is still all CLASS A parts, maintained original length, width and height. Looks like a flying pancake with wings and guns all over.

    I used and gradually modified the Frontier until I was about lvl 25, I just tacked some roman numerals on the end of its name each time I tweaked it (It looks pretty much the same, just longer, with two levels and a different colour).
    I eventually replaced it with the Razorleaf after I'd rebuilt it from the ground up in the background. I will say I have found particle weapons to be far more effective though, especially since doing the Vanguard questline and gaining access to the really good ones.

    Great vid. I agree with most of what you said here. I think the ship building is the best part about this game. So the first time i I modified the frontier, I tricked it out fully. Class c and rank 4 everything. It was like a finally form, ultra instinct goku type frontier. But I kinda missed how it looked before. So I modified it again to make it look like the original. It's to bad that the ship can only be modified up to a class B without changing how it looks. I wish there were class C type versions of the white dwarf 2030 and 1020 engines, grave drives and reactors. It's a little annoying not having all parts available at every technician site. Hopefully the modding community can fix these issues, if not BGS themselves.
    Oh and quick tip for those how may not know, enemy ship constantly respwan in the Serpentis system. Northeast of Kryx. Just ubove the Nirah system. Just jump around to each planet and moon and in most cases, enemy ships respwan. They're mostly Va'ruun but depending on how far you get in the main quest, starborn ships can spawn as well. Great spot for xp, credits and crafting resources.

    I did something similar with the Discovery, which turns out is the Frontier's sister ship. The only reason I did this was to keep the Frontier original. Aesthetically, you can upgrade many things on it to have full power on pretty much everything except engines and missile launcher. Considering both primary and secondary guns were set up as three guns I had re-positioned my missile launcher (have two) in order to appeal to it's overall space allocation and increased it's efficiency.
    Hilarity is on the Discovery while my engines and mobility were only moderate, after I was done I no longer had any guns. I have Delete Buttons.

    ​@HalfwayNuts Wasn't till the end you actually hit the nail on the head...
    That ship is Constellation's. Remember, they say up front it's part of the perks like the Bedroom and Vasco, and you're getting to use it. Thus, if you're true to the spirit of the story, and chsracter you have built, the 1 constant is that ship.
    Thus, as the caretaker of another's property and that the Constellation members are our supporters as well as 1st crew it says as Class A
    Its great to beef it up to Class B but (IMO) THAT'S AN ERROR.
    Before the internet flames from hell start burning the hair left on this old gamer body ... I'll explain, especially as it's my style of rollplay, and yours is just as valid.
    The one I've been using in all 8 of my run-throughs even in the fleet to the last mission decision to go to Unity through the tunnel is still Class A, just upgrades all the way through as the funding procurement was realized. 1st one was at level 8 to 16 when i 1st get to The Lodge. (Yea gotten better as i did more playthroughs) The ship early on only needs to dump the weapons and get 2 of the best DPS beam wreapons you can, as they do both shield and Hull damage and by going to them you can hold off on the reactor as reallh its the grav drive that when you need more trigers the need fir more powerfull additiknsl PB as 2nd thing needed is the EM.
    SO WHY??
    Simple, only other pilot in Constellations members us Barrett, and he can't fly Class B, best we know from his own comnents. Thus, our character is the Cheif Pilot andxas such gets snc deserves the best.
    The class B when Im we need it for the mission is either of the next 2 ships we can get. Yes the mission ship that the Mantis owned but as the pirates tend to avoid it, it's now a well defended crew of 8 plus 2 passengers with 2000 cargo capacity, ample for all the needs.
    And the real fighters of the fleet, the Freestar Rangers were so graciously kind to give as a retirement gift. As it, in rebuild mode , has crew of 4, it's was / is useful when the Constellation (or the faction) need calles for heavier force than the Frontier can provide. Then the rest of the fleet is Built up upon the Deluxe Stroude ship re shaped so its Class C is more like a class D and punches like s great fighter, but always being a welterweight taking on a heavyweight and hmgettingva ko in the 1st min of the first round. Pluxxa host of xhips tgsg have parts fir other builds.. Why scrap them when your going to rebuild anyway.
    Guess it's the buzz an YT that's driving the rush to get vids out before the wisdom of knowledge has set in.
    Nice to see the Frontier as it looks but really can be better. My level A Frontier's can at the character's level 60 do all Serpentos and come home fine. That's possible if you build well.
    Last note, EVERY ship in the fleet mobility us over 90 and all the fighter/defender class are lv96 to the Frontier is 100 with 150 then 180 speed and cargo is 600. And yea, occasionally every one of the crew each are at max load especially as you can have 4 crew on her and a passenger that gets full pockets too.

    I just did it over, it's now a c class, built the way I wanted it, it's a beast with the best of everything including six engines. I spent so many credits, but it's now my favorite ship, has 8 crew now. You know what's funny, the NPC's at the space ports still see it as the original ship and make comments like they're surprised it made it on another trip, they also tell me that ship has seen better days 😄.

    I wish there were a “beehive” missile launcher. Fire once, launch like 9 that rockets. Also pop the missile on the front middle and add a second ballistic to where the launcher is now. Would just look better aesthetically.

    Soo.. you took early game ship, wasted 100k credits on it, so it would perform just a bit better? Alternatively you could've just doing story missions to get a better ship and then use 100k credits to upgrade it's guns. You didn't fixed frontier, you just wasted money on it. Besides.. 100k credits early game, plus level 3 pilot is not an easy task to complete. Not until you learn how game works or if you are playing NG+

      Its not a waste of money to me 😁. I’m pretty happy with it and I’ve been rocking this ship in my game for a while. No, it’s not that hard to get rank three of piloting or get $100k credits just playing the game normally. I’m at level 45 and I haven’t even discovered Akila City Or Neon for the first time. Leveling up isn’t that hard and doesn’t take that long.

      Out of the box it just needs more power. It doesn't have enough power to run the engines, shields, and weapons it already has at the same time. I'd say the first upgrade to make would be a better reactor and after that it's not a bad little ship.

    The Frontier, a Nova Galactic Discovery class vessel, a classic older than the moon, has served Constellation well as an exploration ship with her unique all in one module with the research lab for forty three years. With upgrades to her weapons, reactor, grav drive, shield, and engines, she will take you to the end game as long as you don't add anymore MASS, cargo storage to her. She is not a garbage scow, sell your loot, not hoard your loot on the Frontier. There is UNLIMITED storage at the lodge, as well as all of the crafting stations. If the lodge isn't convenient enough for you which is only a few clicks and seconds away, built an outpost with all of the storage you desire. Furthermore with her research lab she can build on any solid ground all of the crafting stations nearby... SELL your loot ASAP, not pack rat it on the Frontier! Do you store all of your stuff in your car?

    The reason the ships aren't fighting back is because their weaons are forward facing and you boosted the crap out of an A class. I fly circles around enemies in a C Class with 20 to 40 mobility. There is no chance in hell an NPC B or C class is going to be able to shake you off it's six.
    If you want a challenge, build a mobility C Class Brick with only EM weapons (4 manual 4 Turrets) and play bumper cars, dodgems and boarding actions.
    A word of warning. Building a ramming ship can be too good. Huge mass, hull and shields can plough right through small ships.

There's no difference between a heavily modified Frontier and the same ship with better parts to begin with and this build can only work fairly deep into the game. You came in the the "kiss my ass" stuff. You'd be better off modifying the Razorleaf.
