Why did my build rating go over the breach limit?

Cargo counts toward build rating at a reduced rate (25%).

A train that leads to a breach region won't take a ship rated above that tier's maximum, so a full hold can put you over on the way out.

  1. Use a different extraction train.
  2. Before the next run, plan for the haul. To bring the rating down, empty the hold, swap in lower-quality modules or keep affinity points unspent.

Good to know

The fitting screen shows the number as Ship Build Rating.

Tip

Entering a breach uses the same rule, cargo included. Stratum 1 tops out at 6,000 and Stratum 2 at 8,000.
