Prototype X-3

Limited Ship

This ship is a limited ship, and could only be acquired for a limited time or it has since become limited.
You lose it forever once it is destroyed, or otherwise has limited availability on the Limited Build Menu.

Prototype

This Super Capital Ship is classified as a Prototype, a massive, enormously expensive warship with unparalleled firepower and health.

The Prototype X-3 is a Miner-Class ship released as an April Fools' ship.

Description

The Prototype X-3 is a former hidden Quest ship until that was later put into the limited build menu. It resembles the design of the Wasp, but it carries a Colossus Cannon instead of a Mining Laser.

Interior

Just like the Wasp, this ship has no interior; players simply walk out onto the seat in the center, which is completely open to space.

Advantages

• Fast, small, and hard to hit.
• More than double the health of a regular wasp.

Disadvantages

• Low health.
• Almost no Hull damage.
• Tiny Cargo Hold.
• Class E Permit costs over 100k credits.

Strategy

• If you're going to use it, scare away players who don't know that it is a Wasp by being far enough away from them that they can only see the Prototype X-3 targeting icon, but not the ship itself.
• Don't use this ship in War, as it will be targeted.
• Treat this ship as a trophy. It can be destroyed easily.

Version History

• Released in version .65b for 2 weeks as part of a “potential” April Fool's Day prank. The April Fool's Day prank was later confirmed true within a week of its announcement through the obtaining of it via a small rectangular container located a distance of 146k to 150k studs directly above the Mega Base.
• Re-added for a limited time in version .66b, nobody managed to get it within that period.
• Advanced AutoCannon replaced by a Colossus Cannon and reclassified to Miner in .72d.
• Supercap/Huge miner icon removed and replaced with a normal wasp icon in an unknown version.

Trivia

• The quest for it said that 7 million Credits, a Weapons Part, and an Alien Device were required, but in reality, you just needed around 7 Credits to get it. However, if you had the requested items above, the quest would take them from you.
• Despite bearing a name similar to the Prototype X-1 and the Prototype X-2, which are both Super Capitals, Prototype X-3 is actually a Miner.
• The first player to kill one was Birdhunter100.
• One of the Developers, Arina, mentioned that if Galaxy won a Bloxy Award, they would add a battle Wasp to the game. Galaxy did not win a Bloxy Award, but this might be the battle Wasp Arina was talking about.

• The room in which you got the quest was meant to be accessed with an extremely well-hidden teleporter. However, it was eventually discovered to be about 146 thousand studs above the Mega Base, where most people got it.
• Back when it first came out, it could be sold for roughly 2 Million credits, though you would be banned for doing so. (Note: selling it after buying it for full price was not bannable.)
• Was released a second time on 9/17/2019 for one day. It was hidden inside a large uranium in one of the corners, and to access the quest you needed to upgrade myriad to level 2. Nobody was able to get it in that time period.
• Was put into the limited editions build menu on 2021, the materials required in this case is 181 silicate, 140 carbon, 117 iridium, 9 adamantite, 27 palladium, 14 titanium, 14 quantium, 11 uranium, and a Class E Permit (over 100k credits).
