Ship build (best crew) for Starfield

While you can explore the vastness of Starfield on your own (without a companion), it's worth taking the time to find a reliable crew to keep your ship in good condition. Depending on the size of your starship and the installed modules, you may need a team of 10 close-knit teammates or a larger group of several dozen mercenary astronauts.

Where to hire a crew for a ship and people for an outpost

Potential crew members can be found in many places, but they generally do so in one of two ways:

• Some followers are unlocked by completing main and side quests . This applies to Constellation members like Sarah Morgan, Sam Ko, and so on. It's not uncommon to encounter an NPC during a side mission or faction mission who might be willing to join your team in the future. After this, you will be able to hire him on a permanent basis. You'll know he's a potential crew member or companion if you see the list of skills available to him appear during dialogue in the top right corner. If this list is not present, it appears that you have not completed the entire quest chain.
• Other crew and crew members can be hired at spaceports and bars in major cities . In everyA large settlement has either a spaceport or several bars where, among other things, potential recruits gather. Here you can find both well-developed characters and nameless specialists with one worthwhile skill. However, even such “working personnel” will sometimes be useful on a ship or outpost.

For bars, head to The Viewport and Jake's in New Atlantis, The Broken Spear in Sidonia, The Hitching Post, The Rock and Aggie's in Aquila City, Astral Lounge, Euphorika and Madame Sauvage's in Neon, or The Last Nova aboard the Crimson Fortress Fleet.

The great news is that most of the crew members you unlock in story and side quests will join you for free - either as a personal companion for exploration missions, or as an NPC who can be assigned to a specific position on the ship or outpost. But those specialists you meet in spaceports and bars require a one-time fee. And if there are multiple skills available to them, the cost of hiring can be prohibitive.

How to assign a crew on a ship

After hiring new NPCs, open the ship menu in the lower left corner of the screen and click on the “Crew” tab. Depending on the size of the ship, there may be enough space for all available NPCs or only some of them, and then you will have to manually assign which companions should help around the ship and which should be sent to the soz?The outposts you identified.

IMPORTANT! It may be tempting to hire as many people as possible and spend money on expanding crew quarters, but there's no need to rush! First, you need to invest money in the skill of commanding a ship in order to increase the size of the crew... After that, think about expanding through modules and cabins. Therefore, at the beginning of the game it is better to focus on three worthy candidates.

Once assigned, they will automatically appear on your ship (with the exception of Vasco, who always appears outside the ship's landing pad). And from this moment on, crew members will use all the skills available to them, which will add to your abilities and improve piloting (both simply moving through space and during space battles).

I do not pretend that the companions listed below will be the best for the crew among all the NPCs encountered in the game . However, they will at least benefit your ship.

Vasco

• Ship skills: aneutron synthesis (1), shield systems (2), electromagnetic weapon systems (1).

Vasco is the very first companion you will meet in Starfield. All three skills are aimed at improving the ship. If he is an active crew member, you will receive an additional point from the reactor, which can be applied to any ship system. Will they also be strengthened?? shields. Given that it is not programmed for violence, you will also receive an upgrade to non-lethal EMP weapons, which will allow you to disable the systems of enemy ships and board them. Just make sure you install such a weapon.

As an added bonus, Vasco is the only crew member who will be outside the ship, making him an excellent ally when fighting enemies (just lure them closer to the ship or airlock when boarding).

Barrett

• Ship skills: spaceship engineering (4), beam weapon systems (3).

Barrett is a versatile option with both offensive and defensive skills. You will repair damaged ship systems faster, and will also deal increased damage when using beam weapons (so be sure to install one). Simply return to Vectera as part of the story mission and he will join the party.

Gideon Acker

• Ship skills: ballistic weapons systems (2), missile systems (2).

If you feel your ship lacks combat power, Gideon Aker is one of the best candidates you can hire (if you're willing to spend over 13,000 credits in the Viewport Lounge in New Atlantis). Will it improve ballistic and missile systems??weapons, so be sure to use the appropriate weapon.

Sam Coe

• Ship Skills: Piloting (4), Payload (2).

The man will join you for free in the game's plot after you go with him to Akila. With a whopping 4 points in piloting, your ship will become more mobile and maneuverable, and the Payload perk will increase its capacity.

Omari Hasan

• Ship Skills: Shield Systems (3), Starship Engineering (1).

Although you'll have to shell out 12,000 credits for Omari at the Aquila City bar (The Hitching Post), his presence on the ship will enhance defense systems and speed up repairs if needed (even in the midst of battle).
