2:08 Is a chameleon spacesuit the name of the suit or a characteristic? Where does one find such a suit?
What moon do you suggest?
If you want to quickly go back to using your own ship, you dont even have to take off with the stolen ship. Just sit in the seat, ship menu, tab across to the stolen ship, make stolen ship your home ship, exit the ship, fast travel back to your old ship (on local map if you can no longer see it in the scanner), make your old ship your home ship, and the stolen ship will still be in your list of ships when you go to the menu/a technician.
Came here to say the same, you don't need to fly away with it, as soon as you sit on the pilot seat, it's yours. :)
I prefer the moon right next to Wolf (the Den). Makes it easier for me to just take off, sell contraband, and repeat.
Here here! Wolf Den is my most visited place,
Also the Key, it's actually better than the Den. No scans either, but the Den only has one vendor with 11,000cr. The Key has 5! merchants, including one with 12,500cr and another with 11,000cr. The other 3 range from 3,500 to 5,000cr. I believe there's a total of 36,000 credits from vendors in the Key (spoiler: great reason to side with the CF)
Pro Tip: You can register ship from pause menu, it makes it waaaay cheaper.
This right here
Is it actually cheaper? I noticed on a cheap ship anyways but I didn’t pay attention to the diff.
@@YourMasterDennis001
By a rather good margin. Usually if the fee for a 15k (sell price) ship at a spaceport is around 12k fee from your pause menu is going to be around 9k. It seems to be percentage-based but I don't know the percentage.
I need to find out how to get a legendary ship. They say it's a long quest line involved.
Are u sure about that? Are u on a PC or console? Because I believe it's different depending on which u play. I have been trying to figure this out. I'm on Xbox.
Didn’t think I’d take to Starfield but I’m absolutely loving it! It’s the longest I’ve never played Destiny other than going on vacation.
It feels good to say I've stopped playing Destiny because of Starfield. It's nice to see other people say the same thing.
I've been doing this by accident. Like I'll land on a planet see a ship come down and just go towards it for fun. Most of the time it's ecliptic sometimes it's UC or Freestar. One time it was an awesome vessel from House Va'ruun. By the way those a-holes have damned fine ships. I have gotten so many ships this way.
I haven't done a whole lot of space exploration. What system would you likely find Va'ruun ships?
@@cluster_f1575 I have found two. Well technically 5 or 6 throughout my entire playthrough. I have managed to capture 2. It seems they generate the encounter first and then generate who's showing up for the encounter. One time I had an interesting glitch and had to reload and it shifted from the snek boys to ecliptic.
I don't have enough time to play to figure out if some star systems generate more of one than the other. All I know is ecliptic and the spacers seem to be more common. Whereas the crimson fleet and House pop-up much less often.
At that Moara mission where you need to get to a satellite, there are 3 Vaarun Hymn class ships. Blast 2 of them to debris and board the last one. That was the first Vaarun ship I got
Jettison contraband? Just take it to the Den and sell it without getting scanned. It'll cushion those registration fees a little.
Register your stolen ship from your menu in space before you land/dock. It is much cheaper than paying the service tech at port. Save your Credits!
Lol I got a 31k bounty with the UC so I kind event sell at the den. I gotta fly to porima iii and sell to the lady who owns the death run. Pretty safe alternative and it’s not too high of a level that a newbie would get trapped by pirates
@KingRonin_ I'm barely into the main quest myself, doing all the side quests and taking my time. I know it's come up in a couple of the side quests, dunno about the main one. It's a starstation in the Wolf system, hence the name. Pretty bare-bones but they have a trade authority guy there with 11k credits and no scanners.
@@KingRonin_ I think the Vanguard Faction Quest takes you there briefly, but the Den is located in the Wolf System very close to Alpha Centauri. There is a Trade Authority vendor there. His name is Marcel. Tell him Draco sent you and he'll give you a good deal 😉
Put the contraband in the Captain's Locker.
It will be detected but they won't take it so you'll have to pay the fine but...
Contraband is high value. The Trade Authority will buy it in any port.
I would never jettison contraband. Just go to Wolf and sell at the Trade Authority at the station. No scans, it's perfectly safe.
Dammit - I left UC and Colonist ships alone (trying to be a good guy) and I thought that taking one may lead to a bounty being placed on me or inability to register it.
I was looking around for a Crimson Fleet or Spacer ship to steal and never seeing one.
Oh well - time to take a small step over the line between light and dark :)
Same
you don't have to fly to spaceport. Simply TAB and select ship, make home, register and get out. Walk back to your original ship and make it home again (or go hunt for some more stuff)
Seeing gamers agree with Paul again is something I haven't seen in a long time. Now as far as ship stealing, it sure is fun!
You can save-scum this, also, to get a ship you want. If you want a UC Raptor or whatever, and an Eclipse Stilletto is landing, just reload the landing auto-save. A new ship will spawn in to land on the moon.
So that works even after the ship lands ?
@@martinezanthony9282 As long as the save file is from when you landed, it'll work. If you load a save file that was created after the non-player ship landed, it'll always be that ship.
Lesson learned from another video several months ago, don’t register your new stolen/commandeered ship through a ship technician.
Register it yourself by going to the ship overview and choosing register. That way you will always pay less credits than using a ship technician.
Thank you, loving all the Starfield content.
You're the best TV. I'm happy you're finding success with Starfield, keep the cool videos coming!
You can sell a ship without registering it. All you have to do is make your home ship next to the one that isn't registered. On Xbox, you press and old LB or RB (depending on where the unregistered ship is) and A. Then relese at the same time. It will automatically give you the option to sell the unregistered ship. Just make sure its the ship you want to sell before selling it.
Nice tip, TV. Love the Starfield vids!
The "don't attack the guards on the outside" was something I learned when I failed to capture my first ship. It literally took off as soon as I engaged with the three guards outside.
As for capturing a "friendly" I admit I haven't tried that. I'm not even sure you need to be stealth when you pick the lock. Unless a guard is standing right outside the bay door. But I went into this assuming you would get a bounty if you killed a "friendly". So I never tried to take a UC vessel. But I'd argue the video is correct that the UC vessels are likely already well geared.
I did have one ship that landed which was just a single occupant. The captain. Some minor conversation dialogue. You either kill the captain, or you leave the captain be.
But here is my thing. About landing on moons. If you land on a moon and within a minute a ship hasn't landed, don't waste your time. Leave the moon and come back to a different spot. I have been on moons long enough to trigger another landing, but if it doesn't happen almost immediately when you land, it probably isn't going to happen. And you need to sprint to that location. That ship may be on ground for a while or may take off almost immediately upon landing. These ship landings occur for a reason. So once that reason was addressed, the ship is taking off.
And yes, most of these ships you can capture are pure garbage. One I recall I captured from the Spacers was so bad I actually hated paying the registration fee just so I could turn around and sale it.
Also if you take over the ship and go into orbit, there is a slight chance you may enter a dog fight with that faction you just stole the ship from. Doesn't happen often, but it has happened a couple of times with me. And if you are in a garbage ship, odds are you aren't surviving the encounter.
Huge tip, thanks TV and Paul 🫡
Great helpful tip about ship-farming in Starfield! I'll try it!
Thanks for this! +1 Sub!
Up until today I have never had a problem with contraband on ships I steal from baddies, just didn't pick them up and left them where they were, the contraband just disappeared. But all of a sudden today I had to get rid of it off the ship so something has changed. Another tip is unless you need to upgrade another ship don't bother taking anymore C-class ships because unless you can sell without registering they will only lose you money. Personally the only reason I have anything to do with the C-class ones most of the time is to take the weapons off the crew to sell (and the contraband of coarse). Way more money and quicker than messing around trying to sell the ships.
Nice will give this a whirl later as the Razorleaf is starting to struggle in combat (by that I mean I suck) and has really limited cargo space.
The best ship you'll ever own is one you made yourself 😉
Just started playing this game. I’ll have to try this. I did the Rangers quest line which was long as hell, at the recommendation of my friend and got the ship from that. I haven’t tried it in combat yet but he said it took him a long way before he replaced it.
Always make sure to loot the cargo hold. Even when it's a UC vessel where the pilot is doing repairs in the cockpit and I don't want to kill them or take their ship, I still loot their cargo hold and captain's locker.
Can't wait for the mod that allows reduced registration cost or no registration for registering your ship
I’ve seen the ships land, but never gone over to check it out. I was always afraid I was going to get blown up. But I will now.
Nice! Stole my first ship yesterday doing something similar to this, a crimson fleet ghost.
Tip. You don't even have to fly away and land the ship, as soon as you sit on the Pilot seat, it's immediately added to your inventory, it's yours the miniute you sit down.
Loving the videos TV!❤️🔥
Nice paul tassi actually providing correct and useful information for players. Now thats what i like to see. Still though its kinda common sense when you first go to any planet/moon that isnt directly at a city and notice the starship(s) that love to just immediately park near you for easy exploration. And by exploration i mean stealing 😉
Too bad this immediately gets old and the quest ships you get outclass all this stuff from what ive seen. At least if your wanting to have access to ship parts better than what the first couple of starship design skills provide via vendors.
You forgot to mention the trick to register ships for even cheaper via the inventory menus though i think.
One other thing to mention, it is cheaper to register your ship right from the ship menu! You don't have to go to a Starport, and you will make more credits!!!
Love the Starfield content TV. 👍🏻
Well this is great, it's just too bad the game limits you to only 10. I have a hard time letting go of ships I acquire. Especially, the uniquely named ones like the Razorleaf, or the ones I've already spent dozens of hours designing and redesigning and spending several hundred thousand credits on.
Just keep he 3 special ships you get from quest sell the other shit you come across
I've found that the "registration" fee is 84% the value of the ship you are registering. Just so you know how much you need to have to register.
Interesting method. Thank you for the tip.
Once you can take on some decent ships in space: go to serpentis system and fly around to all the planets and moons capturing the va'ruun ships in space. They tend not to carry contraband and the equipment they wear is valuable. Make sure to loot the cargo and captains locker as each of them could have upwards of 10,000 credits each. Also if you didn't know: you can make a ship your home ship and register it anywhere from the tab menu, and it's cheaper than the ship technician. Simply target your original ship, redock it and sit in your cockpit to re-home your ship, no flying back to a star yard for each capture. You do have to at least home ship your captured vessel before leaving it though, or it will not be yours. You do not have to register it right away.
All of the decorative junk and chunk food items etc. will be transferred to your cargo bay when you sell a ship, so be sure to check the misc. tab when you visit a vendor, it can really add up quick.
This doesn't happen if you undock and make the new ship your home ship my original ship always fly's off right after, is there something I am doing wrong?
@@HUNTER-iy8mj yes you undock automatically when you make the new ship your home. You have to target and dock your old ship before it flies away, then just board it and run to your seat
Knowing that certainly will come in handy.
I did this by chance! I was level four and the first time you go to Sol I decided I wanted to visit Luna/ the moon.
I saw a big ship land immediately, as you said, so I jabbed some Amp and charged over, arriving to see six Eclipse mercs marching away in file. I scooted inside without being seen and went to the bridge, splattered three guys, and jumped into the pilot seat. I was very pleased with myself!
It was a Stiletto, a high level A class.
I still use it at level 22, but have modified and customized it into something worth 170,000+ with triple-quadruple the cargo space, four big engines, massive helium 3 tanks, everything upgraded to my current ship tech level 2 or class B.
I have captured other ships this way, so I confirm it works!
Tip: Do it without companions to make sure you have no issues with them being squeamish and judgemental
Thanks for the tip. I guess the desolate moon must be the best place, but this could be done almost anywhere with some luck.
Got all of my ships this way, even though theyre not great, but thats due to being low level I guess. Works a treat. Got a Freelance pikup after a quest escoring a guy back to "his" ship......its now mine buddy. You dont board it, you didnt have anyone on it either, tough luck! lol
It definitely works. Also since it’s a planet that doesn’t have a lot of stuff you can scan a few resources.
For new players, the best ship you can found in the very beggining is Varun Abthem (or something like that). You just need to swap weapons and its good to go! And even after that it can guide to to endgame. There is place to put some cargo containers for extra storage and its looks cool.
Where at?!?
@@williamangeles9761 just follow main story line.
When you travel with Sara to Sol and asking bartender about missing guy. He send you to some spot in Sol where some Varun Zealot flying.
Game try to explain you how to use stealth on space ships (lower dawn power supply on subsystems).
Instead of doing this you fight them and board the last one. Easy! ;)
@@gengius3617 Thank you very much. You are greatly appreciated. (God bless you and if you Do not believe may life treat you the Best it can.)👍💪😎
@@gengius3617 So forget stealth and go Master chief on them?!?
@williamangeles9761 "This is the Way!" (c) XD
P.S. Thx! And yes, I belive in God.
P.P.S. If your character belive in Great Serpent you have dialog option to give Sara some prayer to read in open chanel.
Excellent ✊🏽 👍🏽
Planet ship jacking allowed me to save a game that trapped me in a 5 system island because i boarded a eulogy that had neither the jump capacity to reach civilization nor the armament to board another ship.
I scored an unoccupied Starborn guardian last night. I haven't even gone to New Game. I didn't think that was possible.
I've also seen a number of ships land, and stay locked. As in no open landing bay to get on from. Maddening - they were nice ships too.
Doors and windows remove sections of the interior. I think ladders are the best way to showcase the full interiors.
Thank you
I’ve done this. It’s fun
Thank god, I've been jumping from system to system boarding and stealing ships in spqce combat, and i gotta say it's annoying and the ships are almost always trash. Definitely gonna try this when I hop back on! Thanks TV!
Go to level 30+ systems. I got a massive C29 ship from this. Find battling and boarding a lot more rewarding.
Thanks TV!
I can you keep doing this WITHOUT registering the ship? I commandeered an ecliptic A-class ship and now cannot seem to get another even after killing everyone. Just get notification:
“Not authorized to access this ship” in the pilot seat. I also have the Wanted trait but not sure if it causes the glitch
Grand Theft Spaceship.
Good tip!
do i have to change the difficult level in game to get good ship
Found this out yesterday while building outposts on different planets.
You don't have to kill anyone, you just leave them alone on an inhabitable moon. lol
Great video! Kind of off topic but what outfit are you wearing in the menu screen?
I have discovered that you don't have to fly the stolen ship to a spaceport. You can board the ship, sit in the chair, claim it as your home ship, then run back to your ship and reclaim it as your home ship then fly to another spot on the moon. I think it is funny as hell because once you claim a ship as your home ship you can hop off the ship and still see the captain and his crew walking around but the ship is yours lol. Once you have claimed the ship you can also hop off and kill all the bad guys outside the ship with out worrying about the ship taking off. You can do the same thing in space. Once you have killed the crew sit in the chair (and this is important) don't claim the ship as your home ship yet. Undock first from your ship then redock your ship. Once you are redocked with your ship claim the new ship as your home ship. Then board your ship and reclaim your ship as your home ship. The new ship will automatically undock and fly to a spaceport on its own and it is in your fleet.
UC Vanguard Raptor can't be stolen. They'll have a captain in the cockpit looking like they're working on the ship. Haven't run into any other UC Vanguard ships tho.. but every UC Vanguard Raptor I've found, not authorized error.
Everytime I clear one of these ships it tells me it not authorised even though I have pilot 4
I can't wait for the man parties
Don't pay for registration at Ship Technicians. You can register them while in space, it's cheaper.
I haven't paid for a single ship yet. Just keep taking them from Pirates and Smugglers. Got a few nice Va'Ruun ships. Definitely better ones as I got higher in level.
Also by taking them from Pirates this way I find it better not to register the ship, in case I find a better ship and need to make room for it (sucks we can only have 10)
I can’t get it to show up 😢
That registration fee is even lower if you register it from your menu before you land!
This is a great idea, but my game will not let me do this. I know if you kill the four or so spacer or ecliptics that come out the ship will take off, but I have tried just running right on, I then get the option to leave or kill the crew to take over the ship mission, then I and my companion just die right there at the entrance ladder ever single time. Not even a shot fired and I just die.
Launch into space. Press tab click the ship, select to make it home ship. select to register. You dont have to go to a spaceport.
Would be nice if they let us transfer parts to other ships. Like a storage of parts or something.
yep great vid, i did that and turns out i need class b or c guest i need to go to space and kill stuff, also i saw u can save before entering the seat and if its not what u want reload, register makes it almost not worth farming ships for money, so the mod works great if u want to sell them,
You might not believe how often those ships don't materialize.
Does this still work? Ive gotten it to do it 2 times the last couple of days. And i cant seem to get any more to show up. Is there a specific kind of moon? Other than just desolate
Might be past a certain story point other enimies attack instead
Register your stolen ship from your menu in space before you land/dock. It is much cheaper than paying the service tech at port. Save your Credits
I am aligned with UC, therefore the captain will welcome me, but I can not sit in the pilot seat.
Serpetis is way better than any planetary capture in my experience 50% of landed ships take off after you waste 2 minutes running after them even with amp.
Hey TV, thanks for the vid! If you land on a moon and don't get a ship spawn right away, do you just hop to another moon, and keep doing so until a spawn?
Also, have you found a lot of C class ships this way? I've found probably 30 ships and almost all have been A class and a couple B class
I have all Pilot licenses but if i want to steal a ship it says that i‘m Not autorized to fly that ship… what should i do? :)
OMG SICK
Lol I just figured this out last night.
Been doing since started ,survey planet and steal ships its great
I was headed to the First's hideout when I ran across a pair of ships. I took out the lower level one and boarded the higher. As I was getting ready to fly away on the new ship, another group popped up. I took out the lower levels and again boarded the higher level ship. I was about to do it again when the game crashed. in 139 hours of play, only the second time the game has crashed.
A boarded but not registered ship used to board another ship which was also not registered then use that ship to try and board another. I had successfully docked but when I clicked the door to board, insta crash. When I came back I was in the second boarded ship again. I just reloaded back to before the boarding fiasco started and took out everything.
I just went to 8 different moons and only had one ship land, and it was an Ecliptic bounty hunter trying to nab me. I killed them and boarded their ship. When I made it to the pilots seat, I got the message "You're not authorized to pilot this ship."
You dont have to fly to spaceport once you take off its yours, fly to new moon repeat go to spaceport when ships are full
So where is this place?
Has anyone ever actually been able to steal an abandoned UC ship on a planet? Any time I find one, it always says that I'm not authorized to fly it. And before you ask, yes, my piloting skill is maxed out.
This works better also if you make sure your on very hard difficulty before you land on the planet, turn the game difficulty, if you need, but you will have to live with yourself lol
Is there a limit to the number of ships you can have?
10 buddy
Take contraband to the den on wolf
For some reason you're not able to commandeer Freestar Collective ships. They just are not stealable. Not sure why. You would think if you could take a UC ship you could take one of their ships too. 🤷♂🤔🤨
Any chance you could do a ship fighting tutorial. I'm stuck on the first to fight first to die mission step where I need to fight off space pirates and can't fight all 4 and live
Not TV but here's some tips.
Boosting breaks enemy locks. Boost away when you see the enemy lockon warning. Avoiding target locks should be a top priority.
When you turn your ship, make sure to keep your speed in the highlighted area on the left of the reticle so you're not turning overly slow.
Thrusters don't get explained in game as far as I've seen, but they basically let you strafe and seem to be good way to dodge missiles/collisions. On Xbox you hold down RB and press a direction, unsure what the button map is on PC. It's the skill you get for piloting 1. The AI likes to fly straight at you and ship collisions cause damage, use thrusters to avoid them and keep your weapons on them at the same time.
When you pick out an enemy, close distance (preferably behind them as most ships don't have weapons facing that way) and destroy the ship ASAP. Try not to move onto another target until they're space dust. Fewer ships shooting at you means less damage taken, and they'll repair themselves if you give them the chance.
Speaking of repair, repair your ship as soon as you start taking hull damage.
Shields should always be at max power. You don't need your grav drive powered if you're staying to fight. Engines should have some power so that you can maneuver faster and use boost frequently. Allocate whatever is left to your shield destroying weapon, then switch power to a hull destroying weapon once shields are down. You can flop power allocations quickly by holding the up/down button for a sec. Holding down will completely drain a system, holding up will give that system whatever power is available up to max.
Lasers are best for shields, particle weapons and missiles hurt hulls and shields equally, ballistic weapons are best for hulls, EM weapons are best for disabling systems in targeting mode. There's almost no point in shooting a laser at the hull, or ballistic weapons at the shield, so keep that in mind when you're deciding what to power up or spend ammo on.
Hope it helps!
In addition to the great tips already shared, just keep at it. I used a basic Ecliptic Bayonet and it took me probably 6-7 tries. You get better as you go!
If all else fails then don't forget you can just tune the difficulty down in settings. Especially useful if you're attempting it in the standard starter Frontier ship.
New player here - what happens to the ship you keave behind?
Your ship you leave behind just automatically goes back to the star port, you never lose it.
what do you do if you steal a UC ship but do not want to become an enemy of UC?
luckily if no UC npc's see you board the ship and no one is inside of it, then you won't get a bounty or make enemies of anybody at all!
This is a great way of getting ships but it's not the best way to make $. I really thought I would get a decent turnover on selling boosted ships but the registration fee is always around 3k less than the value of the ship. So (at least in my game) I was never making more than 3k profit for all of that running around.
Having like 30k Crimsson bounty elipse c class ship almost always land.
I swear I got more ships on Luna than any other planet but for some reason it didn't click
👍
Can somebody tell me why the doors will not open and the people will not come out
This doesn’t work as well, if your to far in the game, I don’t want to spoil to much, but a new faction shows up to attack you instead, that ship cannot be boarded
I sit i the seat and set the ship to home ship. Then run back to my other ship and set it to home ship. My built ship is better than any I jack.
I tried this several times on several different moons and nothing happened. no ship landing!
All UC ships I see won’t let me inside
😊
One simple trick to increase the size of your ship!!!
