Becasuse I ' m on the autistic spectrum , and healthy food usually has tastes or textures that make me feel ill , so I can only really eat stuff that is unhealthy . <| sep |> The cstore stuff own ' t make you better on it ' s own , they are a platform for you to improve by giving you a new ship with some fancy tricks . They will potentially make the endgame content easier for you if you learn how to use them well . If you are really good at the game you could take even a T 1 ship into the endgame content , many do this for fun . But the Cstore ships are not essential . If you don ' t want to spend money on what is essentially a vanity item with some bells whistles then stick with the free ships you get in the game from leveling . Believe me , those will be more than capable when flown well . Another thing in a few weeks there is the Winter Event , and then an Anniversary Event not sure if this will be on XB 1 and PS 4 though both of which will give out a free T 6 ship that is the same level as a T 6 Fleet ship . They are normally pretty good , well worth the daily even requirements .
