Rainbow Chi

The enigmatic Rainbow Chi is a slippery fighter ship with integrated photoli derived shape-shifting technology. This revolutionary tech allows for the repurposing of charged mass into an array of functional optimizations. Hierarchical morphing hull systems create a platform that can fully power weapon groupings or instantly shift charges to amplify distributed hullshock dispersal. This flexible vehicle architecture boasts near perfect, constant equilibrium while fiercely turning the tides in any spaceborne threat.

Manufactured by the Photoli

rainbow manufacturer star atlas

Rainbow ships are manufactured with the help of the “Photoli”, an ancient race of light-based creatures and the source of extremely advanced technology. They can be found throughout the galaxy and have their own mysterious agenda.

Their technology is described as “exotic”, compared to the military, stealth, or civilian focus of the major factions. The description of those ships on the marketplace often incorporates terms like “revolutionary”, “perfection”, “masterpiece” or “perfection.”

Rainbow ships are made of all the nine major resources that are spread across all regions of the Star Atlas – but also incorporate rare materials that can only be found in the high-risk zone.

If you ever want to build a Rainbow ship yourself, you will need the respective blueprint. How to get one? You will need to get in a manufacturer’s good graces: You will have to prove that both your interests are aligned and/or that you’re supporting them. In in-game terms, you will need to gain loyalty (aka reputation) with them, before they judge you worthy of building ships with their logo on them (accruing loyalty won’t be possible before the SCORE v1 and CREAM v1 modules have been released).

Gaining loyalty with the Photoli requires completing their missions. Unlike the minor factions (Jorvik, ECOS & Tufa), there is no initiation required. However, how and where you can get these missions remains a mystery! You can learn more about shipbuilding and blueprints in our in-depth guide.

A fully equipped Generation 1 model

Remember that all ships bought through the GAO (Galactic Asset Offering), are delivered fully loaded. In later game stages, new ships will be barebone and only limited components are bespoke and fixed. So – you’re not only getting a Generation 1 model, but you’re also getting more bang for your buck!

However, the ships will still be fully customizable. All the various modules can be changed/sold as needed as confirmed by Bunthius (Star Atlas CPO):  “The plan right now is that all GAO ships come with filled crew/component/module slots. You’ll be able to un-slot all these GAO filler items and sell them, and respec individually.

Earning potential of the Rainbow Chi

If you’re wondering how much you can earn with your Rainbow Chi in Star Atlas, here are some facts:

Before Star Atlas releases the full game in the Unreal 5 engine, all players have the opportunity to participate in the browser game (called SCORE) with their ship NFTs to generate revenue (learn all the details about the Star Atlas mini game in our guide).

If the player provides his ship to his faction (ONI, MUD or Ustur), he will receive ATLAS, the in-game currency of Star Atlas, in return. This amount is measured by the VWAP (the “volume weighted average price” at which the ship was offered in the Galactic Asset Offering) of your ships. For the Rainbow Chi, the VWAP is $995 USDC.

So if you have the opportunity to buy this ship at a price below the VWAP, this could be a good deal for you (of course no financial or ship advice).

Generation 1 Ship

A Generation 1 ship from the first GAO (Galactic Asset Offering), held in 2021.

All these ships are delivered fully loaded (including crew, modules and components). In later game stages of the game, new ships will be barebone and only limited components are bespoke and fixed. So – you’re not only getting a Generation 1 model, but you’re also getting more bang for your buck!

“To be clear”, said Michael Wagner (Star Atlas CEO),”any of the assets sold through GAO1 will never be sold by ATMTA again. The inventory was all sold out for phase 1.”
