Pathfinder Corvette

"The Pathfinder Corvette is a simple design, commonly used by new pilots. It has a wide field of fire."

General
The Pathfinder Corvette is a Tier 0 hull with starter Miner Rebellion technology. It can only be obtained through starting a new game, and thus should never be scrapped for resources; otherwise, this ship will be lost forever and cannot be replaced.

As a corvette, this ship has a complete firing arc and serves as a training ship for new players.

Advantages
The Pathfinder Corvette is used as a cheap decoy to distract NPC Targets for a few seconds to buy time to set up a formation. It can also accompany Voyager Corvettes in beginner-level play before being replaced by more Voyager Corvettes.

This ship serves as a great souvenir if you wish to relive the old days for no reason whatsoever.

Disadvantages
The Pathfinder Corvette literally has the worst stats in the game. So what are you waiting for? REPLACE IT.
