Description

The Prospector is a Freighter-Class ship that has the fifth highest cargo capacity for its class. It is slightly faster than the Hercules, making it a good choice for traders who want a faster ship as a backup for the Hercules.

Interior

The Prospector is entered through a metal door on the back that leads to a larger room. To the left of the entrance is a set of three crates, a bed, and a small nightstand with a decal and lamp on it. Stairs to the right of the bed lead up to a bridge with a decorated pilot's seat and three yellow screens.

Advantages 

  • Faster than the Hercules.
  • 6th largest Cargo Hold of all Freighters.
  • A good choice for those that like to trade safely, as smaller Freighters are targeted less often.

Disadvantages

  • Somewhat slow.
  • A target for Pirates.
  • Low health for its price.

Strategy

  • Make sure to trade in a neutral Faction that hopefully has strong allies. If there are none, go to a new server. If all servers have Factions all at War, try Trading close to the Mega Base instead.
  • Go to the Mega Base when it is safe. Always check your route if you're in a war. There might be a Pirate or two waiting for you.
  • Check how far away the closest Alien is and where it is heading.
