Pre-Built Ships
A Pre-Built Ship is a package which includes instant-access to a pre-fitted ship, a ship kit, and a paintjob, typically themed to match an in-game activity. The purpose is to provide new and casual players with a solid start of their career without requiring to build ships from scratch.[1] This benefits players, because unlocking modules, outfitting and engineering ships is a complicated and time consuming grind.
Outfitting
The Pre-Built Ships (PBS) are fully outfitted. You can replace the weapons, optional internals, core internals and the utility mounts, However, the modules that come with a Pre-Built ship cannot be transferred to another ship, cannot be stored, and can only be 'sold' for 0 credits.[2] If you buy a replacement module then you can swap that one for another (e.g. an engineered module). Some PBS come with engineered and guardian modules.
Selling a wanted Pre-Built ship and re-deploying it cleans the ship and all included modules associated with the bounty. This does not clear the player's bounty nor their notoriety.[3]
Benefits
Pre-built Ships cost ARX. They have average specs for a viable start so there is no pay-to-win in this regard. Anyone can purchase and engineer any ship for free and change it with better specs than a Pre-built Ship.
A PBS has zero rebuy cost unless you customize the loadout. If the PBS is destroyed, you will receive all equipment as normal. The insurance cost is free for the components that are included with the PBS loadout. However, if you modify the ship with credit purchased modules then you would need to pay the rebuy cost of those modules.[4] If you sell the ship, you can redeploy it later as the original PBS edition. Effectively, you cannot lose a pre-built ship if you have insufficient credits, unless said ship is impounded (as you cannot sell an impounded ship). PBS are instantly deployable at places with a shipyard, and Fleet Carriers. PBS lack maintenance costs.
