All Fireships has a little visual bug for few users: The equipped armor (no matter its rarity) change the visual of the ship back to the unequipped/default skin. There are some tips to fix it like "switch armor and logout, login" but this isn't work well. At least for me, but I find the solution which works for the first try:

- Remove the Fire Pot from your Fireship. Yes, the Fire Pot! I don't know why, but this gear block the armor on your ship.
- Build a Fireship in a quest to see the result. ("Losing your religion" quest in Argos is good for this.)
- If your armor is good, equip the Fire Pot and build a Fireship in a quest to test everything works fine.
- Done!
