Tier 6 ship specs

Quick question (I hope):

I notice on the wiki/guide that Tier 6 starships all have Lvl50 and Lvl60 hull stats (some even have Lvl40)--does this mean that these ships "level" with you, or do you have to update them manually somehow?

    Hm good question. Never thought about it myself, but I assume that it has to do with the scaling in certain missions.

    Like if you play fleet alert, you will be scaled to level 50 and your hull points will be adapted accordingly.

    At least that would explain the clear difference between level 50 and 60. Not so sure about level 40, that's probably for the event, lobi and lock box ships which can usually be used at that level.

    I think the ships will just level with you.

    The hull HP does scale with your level between 50-60, it's not just in alerts and such where your level is modified.

    Yeah, I've seen that done automatically when I've farmed equipment from previous missions (being "26" when really I'm 35, for instance).

    I'm flying the Chimera, right now, and it's 5-U hull is equal to the Lvl50 Manticore--but then the Manticore skyrockets at Lvl60.

    Scaling is a separate issue unrelated to Starship Mastery.

    You will notice five levels of Mastery between Tier 5 and Tier 6. As you earn EXP while in that ship, the ship earns EXP toward Mastery, which offers various bonuses at each level, culminating in a Starship Mastery Trait unlock at Level 5, (which is when your ship is promoted to T6.)

    Scaling, on the other hand, (using a Level 50 captain in a group of Level 30s, for example,) happens to all ships and depends on issues quite outside the Mastery system.
