In No Man's Sky, S-Class upgrades are rare and expensive, but there is a way to get them for free by exploring abandoned freighters. These are derelict ships that can be found in space and contain valuable loot and secrets. However, they are also dangerous and require preparation and caution. This article will guide you through the steps to find and explore abandoned freighters and get S-Class freighter upgrades in No Man’s Sky Echoes.

What's The Best Location To Get S-Class Freighter Upgrades in No Man’s Sky?

The best location to get S-Class Freighter Upgrades is in the Euclid Galaxy, and there's a reason behind it. The Euclid Galaxy has a portal to a system where players can farm derelict freighters for S-Class modules required to upgrade their freighter ship. This is a reliable way to obtain S-Class Freighter Upgrades.

Apart from this, there is a specific system in the Euclid Galaxy where every run will yield an S-Class upgrade for your freighter. This makes it easier for players to obtain the upgrades they need without having to search through multiple systems.

The Euclid Galaxy is also home to many Exotic S-Class Ships. These ships are some of the best vessels in the game and are highly sought after by players. This suggests that the Euclid Galaxy is a location with many high-quality items and resources.

How To Get S-Class Freighter Upgrades in the Euclid Galaxy

Follow these steps if you also want to farm S-Class Freighter upgrades in No Man’s Sky:

Find the Abandoned Freighter

The first step is to find a specific abandoned freighter that is located in the Euclid galaxy. This freighter is known to have an S-Class upgrade for your freighter, as well as other rewards. To reach this location, you need to find a portal. Make sure that you disable multiplayer mode before proceeding, as this may interfere with the process.

Obtain the Emergency Signal Scanner

The next step is to obtain an item called an emergency signal scanner. This item will allow you to locate the abandoned freighter in space. To get this item, you need to go to a space station and talk to a scrap dealer. You can buy coordinates from the scrap dealer for 5 million units.

However, there is a way to avoid paying more than once by using a glitch. This glitch allows you to reuse the same emergency signal scanner multiple times without consuming it.

Locate and Explore the Abandoned Freighter

After locating the abandoned freighter in space using the emergency signal scanner, the next step is to explore the abandoned freighter and collect its rewards.

Before entering the freighter, make sure that you are prepared for cold conditions. The freighter has a low temperature that can damage your health over time. To protect yourself, equip cold upgrades for your exosuit or use thermal protection items.

Collect the S-Class Upgrades

The final step is to collect rewards from the abandoned freighter’s rooms. Once you reach the engineering control center, you will have three options to choose from:

  • Get an S-Class upgrade for your freighter. This will improve your freighter’s stats and performance significantly. You can apply this upgrade to your freighter from your inventory.
  • Get freighter bulkhead upgrades to improve your freighter’s inventory. This will increase the number of slots that your freighter can store items and cargo. You can use this upgrade on your freighter’s terminal.
  • Obtain nanites. This will give you a large amount of nanites that you can use to buy other upgrades and technologies.

You can also repeat the process as many times as you want to get more rewards. To do this, fly your ship and pulse the engine in any direction for a few seconds. Then, slow down and use the emergency signal scanner again to locate another abandoned freighter.
