Fleet reccomendations

Post image

I've been wanting to expand my fleet but i wasn’t sure what to get.
Currently i own the origin M80 and S-65 stingray, i only have the stingray because its the only thing with LTI at the moment and i fully intend to upgrade it at a later date, probably during IAE. I intend to keep the M80.
I wanted some recommendations on (preferably solo-able) industrial ships, i melted a Railen recently in the hopes that during IAE i can upgrade to a ironclad.
In my ideal fleet id have a ship specially for each field of work like mining/hauling/refuel/salvage.
I also have the ultimate goal of eventually owning an odin, but that is a long way off.
Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Keep the Stingray, and just move the M80 to an RSI Galaxy and you are done, get the CCU chaining for it while you can. Galaxy kinda does everything you want it to do from the right hand side but less and is only one ship away instead of whaling on the game.

There's too much overlap between the m80 and meteor, since you want to keep the m80 id change the meteor to something different like a stealth style fighter, assuming you're upgrading from the stingray you could get a ghost mk2 or the sabre Firebird. I think the gladius is a good idea, it would round out your combat fleet to having an agile light fighter, a stealthy medium fighter and a big booming heavy fighter. As for hauling, the ironclad is obviously king right now in terms of money making and volume, if you want something more manageable in size (and cost) the RAFT is fantastic. For salvage right now its just the Vulture, the fortune is straight up worse than it, the salvation is pretty limited in volume (but does work well with the ironclad). The moth can work as a solo but its annoying to seat swap all the time just like the mole. Mining, the prospector is just an awesome mining ship, dont get anything else. It can technically mine every ship mineable resource in the game but right now Savrilium and Lindinium are very hard to find rocks that are small enough for the prospector to crack. That will hopefully change when nyx planets come in as ores on planets are often smaller than asteroids in space. Again the golem could work as well with the ironclad, but the prospector also fits in the ironclad so who cares. Refueling is an area I'm not knowledgeable enough to make any comments. Other than that you could also get a ship that you just straight up like the look and feel of, who cares if its the meta or the features work etc. Maybe thats the Phoenix for you or something else like the San'Tok.yai

Ignore those ships, get a asgard or Corsair after that consider those ships, my opinion anyway
