Two new hull sets arrive, one per faction, with a design for every ship class: Aegis for the Coalition and Eclipse for Axios. A chrome finish, and one rule that sets them apart from everything else: they can’t be bought.

Where to get them

Class Where it drops Chance
Fighter Zeta System incursion 4%
Gunship Alcyone Veil incursion 4%
Corvette Earendel incursion, or a comet 4%
Frigate Crucible incursion, or a full guardian base 4% / 3%
Cruiser The Leviathan, Vorax or Xenobor 4%
  • It’s always your faction’s: Aegis if you fly with the Coalition, Eclipse if you fly with Axios.
  • For comets, bases and bosses, the roll goes to the pilots who get paid from the damage share. A comet rolls once for the whole comet, not once per piece.
  • A guardian base counts when its core falls, meaning when you’ve destroyed all of it. Open-world bases only: the base at the end of an incursion already has the incursion’s own roll.
  • If you already have it, it won’t drop again.

How to use them

A premium design works like any hull design: it changes the look, not the stats, and you equip it in the hangar. If you get one for a ship you don’t own yet, it stays on your account until you do.

A note if you already own designs

  • Incursions no longer drop the Vanguard and Shadow designs. They now drop the premium ones, and at a higher chance: from 3% to 4%.
  • Vanguard and Shadow are still in the shop for Elisium, as always.
  • What you have stays yours: designs you earned before remain on your account.
  • The Threshold Fighter still comes only from the Anomaly, also at 4%.
