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
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.
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
@@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.
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
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
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.
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.
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.
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. 😊
Still using my own little variant of the final asymmetrical ship through every playthrough, gradually getting more and more powerful each time. Love the way it looks 🔥
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
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
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.
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
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
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.
Thanks for tips. Don’t bother too much with some harsh criticism I have seen in the commentary section. There is always room for improvement but I found pacing and explanation well done.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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!)
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.
your bounty hunter build wears the exact same armor, helmet and boost pack as my bounty hunter character glad to see someone though the same thing with its cool design.
I love how this one looks with the big landing gears, somewhat stubby nose ... I rebuild it and the only thing I changed was the engines ... now for that ng+ bounty hunter run ^^
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.
I liked your comment about the prisoner attempting to bribe you to release them. I think it would be very interesting if the NPC could do a roll check of sorts where they use their Level 4 Persuasion against you to release them.
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!
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.
Ths might be my favorite starfield build. till now my approach to space combat has been build a massive ship and load it up with most op weapons since it felt like enemies had aim bot. but with a fast ship i can actually dog fight! wow.
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!
Can't wait to be able to have the money, building one and call it "V4LS Trax". I'm a big fan of MH, so when I begin playing Starfield, I was excited to be able to craft this.
I love that you can out as many of the same weapon on your shop as you want because I put like 12 machine guns on mine and it's like a A10warthog when I shoot lol
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.
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.
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!
I scuttled my Discovery noob ship, kept its 2in1 unique hab as the core to this ship. Kept it at Class A. Such a fun nimble little pocket rocket to fly.
I just got the biggest smile when I heard you say “Narshada”. If I’m remembering correctly that’s from the KOTOR series. The first games that got me into loving RPGs so many years ago
Really dig the look and feel of this. I just hit NG+2 which is where I'm settling in to stay, so I'm looking forward to digging into ship building and outposts.
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.
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.
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.
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.
I love how you come out with this build just after I started making a ship like this myself for the exact reasons. Something small and compact, dishes out a ton of firepower while also being fast and nimble. Kudos to you guys with this build guide and can't wait for what the Bounty Hunter backstory.
great looking ship. You do have room for 2 vertical weapon mounts on the front sides of the landing bay though, so you could add in some missiles or EM weapons if desired.
I'm pretty bad at ship building so I upgraded the mantis ship to C class while trying to keep the look close but I had to make it more bulky to make it work and I'm happy with it
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.
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... 😢
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.
A cool ship idea i have is a huge moving fortress that so decked out with guns that it doesnt need to run or manuvear because it will shread enemy ships
I Liked the design of this ship, so I built one. However, as your skills advance more bits become available so I made a few changes (equipment rather than aesthetics). First I fitted a class B reactor as there are clas B models with more power than the class C you fitted (albeit you can't use C class weapons) but you need Ship Command 4 and Design 4 to fit them so they are a later game module. However this opened a space between the rear landing legs allowing a pair of sheilded cargo pods to be fitted, remving the one from the side, with the removal of the side cargo pod I fitted a porthole so I could enjoy the view on my downtime. I also fitted a couple of weapon mounts on either side of the landing bay and mounted 4 PB-175's to them. I fitted 3 Pulse lasers (one either side the fore nova bracer and one on top of the nova spine) to complete the armament. I used the rear nova bracer to take equipment like the comspike, and conduction grid. Have VASCO as crew / companion and you get just enough reactor points to run everything. Great design I think it will be one I will use going forward.
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.
BOUNTY HUNTER BUILD OUT NOW: ua-cam.com/video/QYrY2k6cPm0/v-deo.html
may i ask what space suit and helmet you're wearing?
Fudgemuppet what ship specificly did you use for this build and where can i find it
Almost feels like the bountyhunter class ship in the Old Republic mmo
Ah the good old D5 Mantis...I love this flying pile of junk...no ship gives this kind of feeling home
That is an awesome ship
I loved that ship more than my Sith ship
ah the old qdy d5 mantis patrol craft the only ship i can tolerate
As a retired Engineer, all I can say is..... Well done! Love seeing that passion for shipbuilding in this new game!
What does being an engineer have to do with any of this lol seems like you just forced that in there
@@babushkaboi7288yeah cuz being an engineer has nothing to do with enjoying large machinery and building those up efficiently

Love the design of the ships. Mine is just a jumbled mess of parts for functionality while yours are so elegant.
I never would have considered a class A engine. Thanks for that particular bit of info.
You could always just tell your adoring fan to wait in the Brigg. Seems like suitable accomodation for him.

Charlotte, perfect name, since its also the name of my Starfield character. Got to make this ship now. Thanks for the great content Fudgemuppet!
Also, absolutely love the individualized ships for all the character builds.

By far the best ship build I've seen yet. Original and creative. 👍
I love that you can out as many of the same weapon on your shop as you want because I put like 12 machine guns on mine and it's like a A10warthog when I shoot lol
I LOVE that compacted ships. Less is more.
I had just asked you "Ship builds WEN" and here it is hah. The cockpit really has a Star Wars feel. Love this build.

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.
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.

Vasco always rides around with you and your ship so it could say Vasco will retrieve your captured prisoner when it's safe
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)
great looking ship. You do have room for 2 vertical weapon mounts on the front sides of the landing bay though, so you could add in some missiles or EM weapons if desired.
As a person that likes ships that's a nice ship 😊
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'm pretty bad at ship building so I upgraded the mantis ship to C class while trying to keep the look close but I had to make it more bulky to make it work and I'm happy with it
FACTS - RP reasons and looks outweigh actual performance
But when ALL 3 come together
Priceless
Really like this builds can see me using this ship design
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.

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.
This video makes me happy
A cool ship idea i have is a huge moving fortress that so decked out with guns that it doesnt need to run or manuvear because it will shread enemy ships
I Liked the design of this ship, so I built one. However, as your skills advance more bits become available so I made a few changes (equipment rather than aesthetics). First I fitted a class B reactor as there are clas B models with more power than the class C you fitted (albeit you can't use C class weapons) but you need Ship Command 4 and Design 4 to fit them so they are a later game module. However this opened a space between the rear landing legs allowing a pair of sheilded cargo pods to be fitted, remving the one from the side, with the removal of the side cargo pod I fitted a porthole so I could enjoy the view on my downtime.
I also fitted a couple of weapon mounts on either side of the landing bay and mounted 4 PB-175's to them. I fitted 3 Pulse lasers (one either side the fore nova bracer and one on top of the nova spine) to complete the armament. I used the rear nova bracer to take equipment like the comspike, and conduction grid.
Have VASCO as crew / companion and you get just enough reactor points to run everything.
Great design I think it will be one I will use going forward.
Nice job, Fudge!
After the bounty hunter you guys should make the stealth sniper build. Like how in Skyrim we always make stealth archers
This gives me an idea to make a ship with the same engines but shaped like a naboo starfighter
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.
I wasn't sure about the hope look before but after this it's a very sexy look
