Players that are interested in piloting Class B and Class C ships inStarfieldwill need to put points toward their Piloting skill. That said, fans must complete challenges before they can increase their Piloting rank, and those challenges all center around destroying ships. For those players that may be struggling to find ships to fight inStarfield, this guide details a method that can be used to reach Rank 4 Piloting very quickly.
Starfield: How to Level Up Piloting Fast
Players that are looking to quickly level up their Piloting skill should set their sights onNew Atlantis, a large city that fans will travel to as they work throughStarfield’s first main mission. Upon reaching this city, players should use aNAT Transit Carto travel to theMAST Districtand then enter theMAST building. For full clarity, this building is situated directly above the MAST District transit stop, and players can find it easily by ascending the ramp after they exit the Transit Car and turning around at the top.

Once inside the MAST building, players should headleftand speak withCommander John Tualaat the UC Vanguard desk. In this conversation, players should pursue the opportunity to join the UC Vanguard in order to receive a preliminary task. That task is to participate in theVanguard Pilot Simulator, which can be accessed through the elevator that is behind the MAST reception desk and is the key to quickly leveling thePiloting skill inStarfield.
Indeed, players will encounter numerous enemy ships in the Vanguard Pilot Simulator, and dispatching them will progress the Piloting skill challenges. Furthermore, the simulation can be reset repeatedly simply by exiting and reentering the apparatus, and fans can use it even if they have already progressed theVanguard questline inStarfieldbeyond this point. As such, all players should have access to the simulator’s endless supply of ships to destroy, provided that they are willing to take the preliminary steps to joining the Vanguards.

One final thing to mention is that this method can also be used to level up the game’s other ship-focused skills, such as Targeting Control Systems and Ballistic Weapon Systems. In fact,Starfieldplayersare likely to complete a handful of challenges associated with those skills while they are working on Piloting, and they should feel free to continue resetting the simulation after reaching max Piloting if they want to complete even more.
Starfieldis available now for PC and Xbox Series X/S.
