What Are Starfield's Best Ships?

Starfield's Best Cargo Ships

If you're running cargo and want to carry as much loot as possible, these ships will come in very handy:

Shieldbreaker

Since the Shieldbreaker is a Class B Crimson Fleet ship, you'll need to build up your piloting skills and get comfortable with them. With its durability, high fuel capacity, and crew capacity, it's one of the best ships for gathering loot. You can buy the ship from Crimson Fleet Headquarters. It'll set you back around 250,000 Credits.

Silent Runner

While its fuel capacity can be limited, we can say this is a genuinely good ship for single-system transport and heavy hauling. This ship can also be bought from Hopetown Headquarters for 390,000 Credits.

Starfield's Best Combat Ships

If you want to be one of the galaxy's heroes in the game, take a look at the ships below:

Razorleaf

Thanks to its outstanding speed, maneuverability, and great base weapons that are easy to upgrade, the Razorleaf is a very good ship for combat encounters. On top of that, it has a unique ability that makes pirates flee at the sight of it. However, we should note that the ship has a low Cargo Capacity. You can buy the Razorleaf by completing the Secret Outpost quest.

Abyss Trekker

The Abyss Trekker is arguably one of the best ships for combat in Starfield. Its tremendous firepower can safely take down almost anything you come into contact with within seconds. Besides its low Cargo Capacity, it does have a few other weak points. But that's true for the other ships as well. You can buy the ship from Paradiso for 365,000 Credits.

Starfield's Best Hybrid Ships

If you don't want to keep switching ships in the game, you might give these a shot:

Star Eagle

The Star Eagle is one of the most well-balanced ships in the game, and you can buy it early on. It has durability, firepower, Cargo Capacity, and crew size. You'll be able to get it once you complete the Freestar Rangers quest.

Crimson Fleet Wight

To buy this ship, you need to be a member of the Crimson Fleet. Besides its solid Cargo Capacity and weapons, it has excellent shields and hull protection. If you're a member of the Crimson Fleet, you can buy the Wight from The Key for 300,000 Credits.
