The firespray is a joke
why?
because you need 8 fragments to make one.
I realize FULL WELL that they are a rare ship and not many were made whatsoever. And i think the firespray SHOULD be difficult to find and should be extremely expensive.
HOWEVER.......the devs have made the Firespray the only non-multipassenger ship at Master Pilot for freelancers.
Hence, unless you have a crew to fly with you in your YT-1300.......freelancers really do not have a "master" ship for solo-use. The firespray does not count because it costs at minimum 5times the amount of other master ships. Can make the Bwing and the imperial master craft for about 1.5mil if you charge 10cpu on the chassis. Multipassenger ships are about 2mil at 10cpu.
People on my server are now offering 2million or more PER DISK. At 8 fragments that equates to 14 MILLION just for the disks, thats not includign the cost of the ship. SW's who have made them ahave auctioned them for liek 15mil.
I say make the firespray useable by ALL proffessions at master...keep it liek it is.....but PLEASE give freelancers a more viable master ship.

i totally /agree they need a real ship for master priveteers the firespray isnt even a ship FOR priveteers anyone can use them so priveteers only have ONE master ship and thats a multipassenger ship that is almost useless unless you can get a crew together

As someone who doesn't play Privateer, who never will play Privateer, and who only even knows one or two people in the game that do Privateer. . . I COMPLETELY AGREE.
It's absurd that Privateer has fewer ships. I mean, there are literally thousands of ships in the Star Wars EU to choose from. Ships that are already designed, already have general concepts and established ties to Star Wars. It would be a matter of opening a sourcebook and pointing to a page at random to find a suitable vessel.
Here's a list so comprehensive it'll make your eyes bleed, and they all have pre-established ties to the Star Wars Universe (why the whole Privateer tree wasn't taken from this list is beyond me, but I digress):
Fighter List
List of Suitable Privateer Master Snubfighters
MandalMotors Persuer (Boba Fett's Slave II)
Corellian HLAF 500
Hapan Miy'til Fighter
Hapan Hetrinar Assault Bomber
Kuat Systems Engineering Cloakshape Fighter
Any of those would be a welcome addition to the game, and could be used as a Privateer Master snubfighter.

A few suggestions, most of which have stats and artwork already done:
MandalMotors Persuer (Boba Fett's Slave II)
Corellian HLAF 500
Hapan Miy'til Fighter
Hapan Hetrinar Assault Bomber
Kuat Systems Engineering Cloakshape Fighter

good stuff they definetly need to get more ships into the game and not just priveteer but for everyone and more ships that all 3 pilot classes can use aka the Firespray

Well, looking at the right in front of you...
Give privateers the Naboo N1 (replica) Cert, The Naboo Yacht Cert, The YT2400 cert, the StarViper cert, and 2 corellian ships (something and a minivette?)
Naboo Privys, when they master, would get 1 use schematics for the N1 and Yacht
Tat privys, when they master, would get 1 use schematics for the YT2400 and StarViper (People will probably get angry about the 2400, so it may just have to be moved up to generic and give it a replacement like the Cast Wing (I know its a rebel gunboat but maybe it could be worked with)
Corellia Privys, when they master, would get their 2 1 use schems for their 2 ships (? and ?, maybe a minivette.) (Someone just mentioned the HLAF 500 or something (highlighting is screwing up on my comp. Maybe that for corellia fighter. Ok, scroll lock got thrown off, its the Corellian HLAF 500)
Presto. All the vareity and specialness youll ever need.

2mil for a YT-1300? that's FAR too high. I bought mine for 750k on a shop vendor

2 million is probably for one made from the best quality resources credits can buy. But, yeah, it is too much.
750k is the max stuff should cost, IMO.

By the way it's also a bit silly that Rebels can't fly the Yt-1300.
Um, hello... Han Solo? /shrug

Han was not a Rebel in the begining, he was a smuggler who got mixed up with the wrong crowd.
