There are ships that specialize in different areas, which is why it’s important that you know how to pick which of the Everspace 2 ships is right for you.
Scout
As one of the fastest and most mobile ships even in its own class, the Scout is great for those who like to move without restrictions. Due to how fragile it can be compared to other ships, it’s better used for long-ranged combat when it can have the reach advantage. Its weapon modifications further complement this by enhancing its ranged capabilities and granting it concealment to mask its presence.
Vanguard
Without giving up speed or defense, the Vanguard is good for hit-and-run tactics on the front lines. This ship can reliably deal critical damage to enemy ships by targeting their engines and then using its impressive acceleration to quickly move away to safety.
Stringer
As the only one of the Everspace 2 ships that disregards safety protocols, the Stringer is a bit of a risky gambit to play. This ship can overlevel its own devices, which can grant it great power for a short period of time. It takes advantage of its light frame to immediately escape fights when it’s in danger.
Interceptor
A medium-sized subclass fighter ship that uses fuel that should be reserved for its engines to power its weapons. The Interceptor can use this to its advantage by unleashing a nonstop barrage against enemy ships.
Sentinel
The Sentinel is a ship that prioritizes nothing and opts for a well-balanced offense, defense, and speed. This medium subclass fighter ship offers a lot of customization in all parts that can make it excel no matter the environment.
Striker
A ship that specializes in fighting close quarters in space. The Striker can make quick work of enemies that enter its range and use its specialized thrusters to quickly chase after would be escapers.
Gunship
Like its name, the Gunship is a heavy subclass fighter ship has the most guns out of any ship. It has a modified turret and additional weapon hardpoints that really make it a priority to be the end to any ship unfortunate enough to face it.
Bomber
The Bomber is a heavy subclass fighter ship that stores warheads on itself. Its thick armor make it a tank throughout space at the cost of its speed and mobility.
Vindicator
One of the more unique Everspace 2 ships, the Vindicator can use drones to attack other ships. It has the highest mobility and speed of its heavy subclass.
