One of the most common questions that gets asked when new players join the NSC is, "What ships should I bring with me?" When it comes to living at the NSC, the only true answer to what you should bring is that you may bring any ship that you don't mind losing. What this page aims to do is to identify a list of ships that would definitely be beneficial for Campus Members to keep in their hangers. As with the [[NSC Skill Recommendations|NSC Recommended Skill Plan]], this is in no way a list of mandated ships that everyone must keep nor is it in any way an exhaustive list of all ships that would be useful at the NSC. This is purely a hand rail for those that have never been to the NSC or NullSec before, and how they could best spend their ISK to make full use of all the activities that the Campus offers.

So much choice!

One of the most common questions that gets asked when new players join the NSC is, "What ships should I bring with me?" When it comes to living at the NSC, the only true answer to what you should bring is that you may bring any ship that you don't mind losing. What this page aims to do is to identify a list of ships that would definitely be beneficial for Campus Members to keep in their hangers. This is in no way a list of mandated ships that everyone must keep nor is it in any way an exhaustive list of all ships that would be useful at the NSC. This is purely a hand rail for those that have never been to the NSC or NullSec before, and how they could best spend their ISK to make full use of all the activities that the Campus offers.

First Timers

On your first trip to the campus, it is recommended that you bring a fast, cheap frigate, both for ease of navigation through dangerous space, and to allow you to quickly make bookmarks as you travel. The Travelling to the NSC page has fitting and travel advice to get you to the Campus safely. If a fight happens and you want to join in, ready to fly combat ships are always available from the Flight Deck.

Be warned that PVP is a constant at NSC, and expect that QRF fleets can form at any time. It is advised that you plan ahead and keep a stocked hangar. The Campus Shipping Service makes near daily runs to NSC, and local industrialists happily take orders in the #nsc-market-and-industry channel in the Uni Discord. Doctrine ships may also be available via contract, but supply is not guaranteed.

Reimbursement for T1, Faction, and Doctrine hulls lost in PVP fleets are available under the Ship Replacement Program, with all the normal rules and regulations.

New Members

As members slowly become settled at the NSC, this is the most basic list of ships that is recommended for Campus members to keep stocked. These are lower SP ships intended to get newer players involved in PVP and PVE.

Established Members

For those Campus Members that make the NSC their full time home or for those who are willing to spend a little more money, this next list will allow Campus Members to fill more roles with fleets as well as to take part in some more obscure opportunities that may arise, such as C3 Wormholes and NPC Dreadnoughts.
