Starfield EARLY XP FARM With Your Starship Xbox & PC (Level Up CRAY FAST No Outpost Required) 

An exploitless xp farm. I love it. Other farms just break the immersion. This one is legitimately part of the game

This isn't really an exploit, it's more of a strategy, which I think is better.

Just put 6 of the Vanguard Obliterator Autoprojector's on your ship and you will destroy everything in your path! They do 11 damage to shields and armor and have a high rate of fire making their dps insane! They also have one of the longest ranges so you can start shooting and hitting enemy's before they can hit you! They are easy to get, and you only have to do a few of the Vanguard missions to get access to them.

Yet another great multi-functional xp farm. I use this one to also farm numbers for upping ship and pilot skills, the husbandry one for weapon skills, the outpost one for credits (trade for ammo mainly), and the abandoned station ones for everything else. Went from 45 to 100 with my playstyle skills maxed out in a single night. Thanks!!

I am glad somebody posted this. This is the way I leveled up my shipboard skills. Even on Very Difficult (my setting), this was a great way to level up.

Thank you for this lol way better than an outpost set up!

I found this out by accident myself within the first couple of days of playing, works a treat and the money and resources you get mount up really fast as well, I had to fit bigger cargo holds so I could collect more before having to return to the lodge to store/sell it all, (storage box in the lodge has infinite storage space).

This is discovering a quick spawn location. I will have to check this out. Thumbs up.

Good Sir thank you so much for this 😊 I very much enjoy space combat it’s an excellent entertainment for me.

Thank you, I’ve been looking for a place for a lot of space combat

I built an outpost in Serpentis IV, it’s got plenty of aliens to kill for XP while down on the planet. If you create a landing pad with shipbuilder option it’s a nice place to just chill, upgrade your ships then test them against the Va’Ruun ships in the local system. Try different builds and see how well they do in combat. Good fun.

Nice. Will definitely be trying this.

Just use particle beams and lasers, beams are OP, or beams and suppressors if you wanna board ships. For 3rd weapon maybe add a turret pointing backwards for when you are getting tailed and use it with low power.

If u get a little bored of the ships. Serpentis 3 has some animals thatt u can farm for xp also. Just running around there with a companion is a good little ship break.

Serpentis is great for A class ship farming. Dirge III has the most powerful Class A reactor (33 Power), the third best Class A shield generator (730 shield), and 4 of the strongest Class A engines (3220 Man Thrust). The only thing lacking is the Cargo, but that is easily fixed, as the most efficient cargo module are available right from the start. And the Dige II and I are also nothing to laugh about (23 and 20 power). Same goes for the Trebuchet ships, as they are identical to the Dirge (same for Revelation and Stormrider, just that there is no Revelation III).

My dude, you sound like Jason Lee (this is a good thing). Also, cheers on the guide! Very helpful!

This is great. I dont like exploits and this is far from an exploit. Its just fun! Thanks mate

The problem with Starfield is: there is sooooooo much stuff to do! I looked at the skill tree and counted: 5 categories, 82 skills with 4 ranks each --> this makes a total of 328 XP points you can spend... 😮😮 Btw: I'm currently at rank 32 and haven't even manage to level up "Ship Building" yet - because other stuff was more important. The grind is real! 😁😁

I ended up finding this system when I was trying to level up my ship weapons. I did exactly this. Just went from planet to planet and had no issues at all finding a fight.

The Vanguard Obliterator Autoprojectors are the best low level weapon in the game. They are A class, and you can fit six of them on your ship. They are the second best ship weapon in the game overall, behind only the PBO-Auto Helion Beam. They have no level requirement, you only have to complete the very first Vanguard quest that takes you to Tau Ceti. Since they are only locked by a single mission, that you can do as soon as you get to New Atlantis, just a bit of talking, they’re really easy to get, and they’re available at an incredibly low level overall. That mission also unlocks the Vanguard Hellion Autocannon, which is by far the best Ballistic ship weapon in the game (seriously, it has nearly double the burst DPS of the next best ballistic ship weapon). It’s a B class, but still good and open early. Oh, and they have the second best B class shield. Seriously, if you want to do anything with ships, it is worth doing that mission immediately. You save so much money in the long run by getting those good weapons on your ship immediately.

I think there's actually a better a tier gun at new Atlantis to use for this and it's the PBO 3300. And not the auto version. I don't know the damage is as high as the PBO 30s you used (I think they are though) but they never run out of energy. You can fire endlessly without a cool down period.

You can also get bigger lvl ships this way. Those (Ship Name) III has better parts than what you have on. They’ll also sell pretty well if you dock and take it.

This is a legit XP grind

Works good with the starborn too. Like 675 per ship.

piloting is easier in the venguard training simulator. just make sure you have 4 skillpoints. cause you can then enter tier c ships what would stuff easier. Also you will only level fast this way up to level 100. after that an outpost on a planet with hundreds of aliens will go faster.

I have to ask - I am having a terrible time adjusting my Xbox controller to suit ship fights, seems to wander all over the place. Do you have specific settings you use for Look, Aim, and Sensitivity, or is it related to the type of ship you have and the weapons you have on it? Your advice would be appreciated.

I think the house va'run home planet is hidden around here or a mayor jump point to it because of the amount of guard ships. Even the system is named serpent sounding. To bad you can't join them . My opinion anyway. Great video keep up the nice work 👍

To add to this if you compete the game first so you have the option to hop universes, you can bounty up every star system and add additional ships to blow up. I went from 26-58 ridiculously fast.

The vanguard beam weapons that only take 2 power each you can have 6 of then and they melt with those 4 disruptor beams

Thank you, man really, thank you.

My strat is slower but easier on low levels. Take the freestar(not sure if this helps with ranger rewards or not) and wanted traits. Take the bounty hunter background. 3 points in tech tree for free. Join the vanguard. Get the weapons Start to Join the rangers to get their mission board. Take all ship missions from rangers board and the one at hitching post on Akila. Grab a tier of scavenging for the credits. Then focus on piloting, shields, particle beams, and em(if you want to capture a few ships). Kill and loot all missions and head back to Akila to sell and repeat. On jemison if you jump boost up to the ledge on the left of the starport right before you hit the ramp there are mission boards closer than the viewport bar. Like i said its slower. But it keeps the new player closer to the safer systems and lets you take a break and go do a quest or two.

Better yet. Land on Serpentis IV. Shoot all the animals. There are some invisible giant grasshopper things called "pack clickbeetles". You get around 50 to 100 XP per kill. They really add up. Also, a planet in the Bel system, I believe Bel 1, also has a ton of animals with high XP points. That planet also has invisible animals.

The Disruptor 3320 Neutron Turret are what you should upgrade to when you have they chance. They have 3500 range and are autofire. So they will just shoot at whatever is in range.

for your character on Starfield, try going to either Neon, or the Red Mile to use the particle beam weapons there, in my opinion Akila City has the best class A, B and C weapons for ships, but this is me, some are level guarded, ALSO, some ship parts are only available at the manufacturer's hub location I have found ... be safe boss please

Low level 3300 disruptor beams not the autos. 4 of them and 4 of the pb30 non auto. Won’t ever have to worry about running out of ammo and waiting for recharge. And will sink anything and everything

I did this for early levels. But outposts are definitely the way to go for serious leveling. One run to Venus and then to my xp farm gets me 14,000 experience and that's not even that good outpost wise. Like the zoology farms are getting people thousands of xp per minute because no crafting time.

I think I'll give that a try!

Looks cool, definitely more fun than farming animalls as you said. Question though, why not board the last ship? Get more loot from inside? Maybe steal?

I use the disruptor 3300 instead of the pb30 because it has a longer range and it's pretty cheap

I think it also helps when you are in a relationship in Starfield and drink some kind of special Tea or drink, then you get 15% XP Bonus from the Realtionship and additional +2% because of the drink for like 15 to 60 minutes, depending on the drink.This added to this Farming Method should get u massive XP gains.

Hit the crimson fleet, the Key, at Kryx, with auto turrets if you want to blow ships up fast and then jump to the nearby moon, sleep 24hrs, and repeat

Any point in playing on anything other than Very Easy in terms of XP or loot regarding this particular XP farm?

If enemies scarce after a while, you can travel to Sol and sleep on Venus for 6 hours and return . And oh, stop by Kryx on your back and forth you get a very good dog fight there with about 10 Crimson ships coming at you .

Thx bud!

I usually just go there, blow up the tiny ships, board the large ones, kill everyone on board then loot em all for everything they have. Then once my cargo hold fills up, i just go ahead and sell everything.

high levels animals are a good way to get XP also and there is a ton on some planets, 1st thing i would do is the ranger questline get that ship then add some guns and put it on hard and get more xp..

Another thing you can do is go into “very hard” mode, travel to one of those locations, and then after it loads, switch to “very easy”. This will make more legendary enemies spawn, increasing XP gains

I'll try that location out. I'm not really low level (currently lvl 46). Just bought the Shieldbreaker and want to try it out. I took off the missile launcher and the balistic gun and put one some partical cannons (since I have lvl 4 in that) but kept the auto cannons to see how good they are. Haven't gotten into any fights yet but that system seems like it'll work.

i rock 4x pbo-175's and 6 vanguard obl auto's plus 3 atlatl 280c missile launchers off a modified star eagle @ fuel 420 reactor c47 crew 10 (8 manned) jump 30 shield 2475 par 132 / 152 msl 1344 cargo 3591 mobility 87 hull 1524. on very hard, nothing seems to bother me.

Is it fun? I think one of the biggest issues with this game is how weak the actual space flight in this game is.

Whats the weapon we want to disable and not destroy a ship? I keep trying to board and space- jack them, but they keep blowing up after I take out shields and engines

Did you start with the perk that makes your ship get attacked

If you change it to "very hard", teleport, wait for the loading screen, and then change to very easy, should't you be getting a really hard reward on very easy?

I know its not much but am I the only one that sleeps and drinks a tea for up to 17% xp boost?

The Vanguard autocannons are a major upgrade to the PBO-30 and are in fact one of the best ship weapons in the entire game. You get access to them after the first Vanguard mission. They do more damage and only require two power. It's definitely worthwhile to get access to them before trying something like this.

This is definitely a better xp grind than the outpost crafting or animal farm nonsense that completely breaks immersion. If you're going to use those methods then you may as well just use the console to cheat your levels. But you can get xp way faster than this by simply going to a high level planet relative to your own level that has a high concentration of fauna and farming the creatures. The only benefit of this method over that is that this method doesn't consume ammo. But by the time you're looking at doing xp farming it's likely at the point where you've finished all the major content in the game and you're just doing it to be able to fully flesh out a skill build so you can see just how effective a particular skill combo is. And at that point you should be swimming in ammo.

You don't want to block your weapons. Like your shield generator is blocking your wep. You could have just put them below your cockpit

Yeah, not really an exploit, just clever game management. But pretty cool 😎👍🏻

Pro tip, open scanner in ship yo easily fast travel to other planeta in system

I like your ship design. I took the Razor Leaf and built it out to something very similar. With my version, I crammed a C class reactor and drive in the hind end of the ship. It's to the point that I have to remember to reduce power on the weapons if I want to capture the ship. If I don't, I just melt the the other guy.

Anyone else not having this vendor appear? I haven't seen him since the beginning of the game

Wonder what the c class ship for this would be

I cannot find the PBO-30 Auto Electron Beam. There is only the PBO-30 Electron Beam.

I just learn from this video that you can reset the difficulty level XD.

the pbo beams weren’t on the weapon menu how do i get them

Don't forget to sleep before you start farming.

I tried this when I first saw this. However now I feel like they nerfed it.

3300 auto electron disruptors are better

i dont get it... been playing for a couple of hours and havent leveled up once

i actually have a much better way of farming xp without spending a single credit. simply join the uc vanguard faction at the mast district and then follow the directions until u get to the flight simulator. enter that and destroy all ships i the sim until u t finished or destroyed then return to the control panel behind the seat and restart the simulator. a simple rinse and repeat of that and u can farm xp until u get bored. plus it helps towards ur piloting skill in order tom het those class B and C ships. just don’t finish the faction quest by checking ur exam results in the next room oneto and u should be fine. in fact don’t finish the quest at all, just use the simulator as need.

My game is so bugged I go to Serpentis there is Zero ships. And I am level 28.

There is absolutely no point putting all those weapons on your ship. You don't have half the power you need to actually power them all. So unless you're dumping all available power into the specific weapon group you're using at that exact moment then they're not functioning at their full capacity. If you're splitting the available power between all three weapon groups and leaving it there then your weapons are only functioning at around 40-45% of their capacity and they drain faster and take forever to recharge. You're much better off sticking with only the amount of weapons you can actually fully power at all times.

make them spawn at very hard and THEN lower the game difficulty.. same combat, bigger exp!

I don't get an XP from ship fights now. Has anyone run into this?

Vanguard obliterater is op.

Not an exploit. Just playing the game.

Run around the systems blowing up ships, get bored and raid them gaining new ships you can than sell or use as upgrades. 🤣

If you're low-level you're not going to make it through Kryx, so this is bullshit.

In all seriousness, is this gameplay fun for you? I’ve been playing for five days of game time and really enjoy the challenge of doing things to earn experience. Farming experience by turning down the difficulty certainly works but it doesn’t seem a very fun way to play the game.

My ships cooler. Vanguard obliterator autoprojector best in game.

I'm doing more xp with my outpost. I play on xbox, using moded controller and a rubberband from my gf. Farming aluminium and iron..with the workbench and a bed for filling up my reserves. I can gain 320XP in a second 😊 for those who dont have a modded controller; put a rubberband on the left stick (pull to the right) and you can spam RB on the controller. Every tap is 10+ on the workbench 😌👍🏼 trust me....nothing faster than this 😘

Your ship is too heavy

Lmao Ser-Pen-Tis

You lost me at 80,000 credits
