Ships can now earn special traits when you fly them and undertake activities in Ascent.

So far players have discovered three:

  • Miner - gives a small bonus to yield and a significant one to mining beam range per level

  • Fast Turner - gives a bonus to turning speed for large ships

  • Tough - gives different bonuses to combat resilience at each of the first three levels

All ship traits are open ended, with the difficulty of upgrading to the next level getting harder with each level attained.

We will add more traits in the future; the system was designed with lots of open-ended expansion in mind.

Make your ship truly unique today with the new trait system!
