General Purpose: Bloodstar A good combination of armament, armor, cargo space, and equipment slots makes the Bloodstar the best ship for general purpose activities. Exploration: Specter The highest armor (not including the Rhino) and a built in cloaking device make the Specter the best ship for cruising around and exploring. 4 Primary weapons and 2 Secondaries is nothing to scoff at either if you need to take out a few pirates on your travels. It also has the most equipment slots of any ship allowing you to carry almost whatever you want on your travels.
