Starship Design is a critical perk to acquire in Starfield if you’re a player who loves to customize their ship. Starship Design allows players to install higher quality parts to their ships, making them faster and better in space combat. It can be time-consuming to level up this perk, though. This guide will cover how to level up Starship Design fast in Starfield.
Fast Way to Level Up Starship Design in Starfield
To level up Starship Design and progress through its ranks, you need to install unique ship modules onto your ship. This can be any part you purchase from Ship Technicians, but most modules can cost a lot of credits. The fastest way to level up Starship Design in Starfield is by purchasing Structural modules from Ship Technicians under the Structural tab in Ship Builder. These are the cheapest modules, ranging from a measly 300 to 1000 credits.
You want to purchase modules under the Structural section in Ship Builder, add them to your ship (any spot they fit and don’t cause an error), and then exit Ship Builder and approve the changes. Then go back into Ship Builder, delete those modules you just added, and then purchase cheap Structural Modules and add them to your ship again. Repeat this process until your Starship Design levels up. You can continue doing this until you reach rank 4.
