Crafting & blueprints
How do I build a new ship?
Craft it at the Forge in your hub, from a ship blueprint and materials in your hub stash.
- Get a blueprint from loot, your faction Quartermaster (for Merits) or the Greylock blueprint merchant.
- Put the blueprint in a forge bay. A Normal Seraph takes Veskar 144, Pirite 138, Helspar 143 and Solstine 18.
- Queue it. The Forge keeps working while you're offline.
- Collect the hull.
- Tether to the refit terminal with the harpoon, then use SWITCH SHIP in your stash.
Good to know
- Rarer blueprints need more material: Advanced +10%, Prototype +20%, Artifact +50%. Forge upgrades offset some of it. Each hull's page lists its costs.
- Merchants and the Quartermaster also sell hulls.
Tip
Keep Dark Triton and Solstine for recipes.
Does the +1 breach tier forge modifier improve artifacts?
No. Artifact modifiers always roll from the same ranges, whatever the breach tier.
So the +1 breach tier modifier won't give an artifact better rolls.
What is the workbench?
It's where your crafting and research jobs run.
When you craft or research a blueprint, the job goes into the workbench and runs there until it's done.
