Newcomer / Intro Pre-Built ships?

[ImBrandon]

Hey! New player here was just curious if any of the Pre-Builts are worth the money since they're currently on sale... i wouldn't mind the mining jumpstart or am I better off going a different route?


Thanks!

If you're going to spend ARX on something, I'd say get the Cobra Mk V (Stellar). It will let you try out a little bit of everything so you can find what you like doing.
It'll also let you earn enough credits that you'll be able to afford to buy any of the others in-game.
I bought a Cobra Mk V even though I've already got a dozen ships and almost a billion credits because I'm a huge Cobra fan.

While theoretically you can earn ARX it's capped incredibly low (only 400/week) that it is impractical to earn enough to buy anything in a reasonable time.

I dunno about the "jump start" ships as I haven't looked at them but the cobraV and the mandalay are both worth buying. I'd get the base versions though.

The early access ships are OK from the store, some of the jump start builds have been considered strange. But that was the opinion of veterans not the intended market of new to the activity players.

One thing to also consider on the 'jump-start' ships the components are bound to that ship and cannot be stored,
if you swap them out the original module is sold, so if want that module back you need to either buy that module or sell and redeploy the ship to get the default complete loadout back
