    Since the Odyssey/Bortas can't turn anyway, it will be a perfect fit.

    It's a feature, but don't use it while approaching a planet; you'll end up like voyager and have to complete all elite STFs alone just with a shuttle to salvage the tech to alter timeline and get your ship back, :eek:

    Actually, that reminds me. If you have an intrepid of bellephoron, and you go to slipstream, it should spawn a delta flyer that flies in front of you.

    Sorry to bring the Bad News, but the Removal of the said feature is already in testing on 'Tribble'...
    We will be bringing the Tribble server down for maintenance to apply a new update.
    ST.17.20120129b.9

    General:
    • Slipstream can again only be used in sector space.
    • Reverted Console - Science - Field Generator, Shield HP Consoles, to modify shield HP instead of granting Starship Shield System skill points.
      • Values will now be identical to the original console.
      • This console still goes into Science console slot.
      • This is a temporary fix and the console will eventually go back to using Starship Shield System skill points.

    It's slower than Full Impulse, but it's pretty damn fun. Why don't we try and think of ways to keep it balanced so Cryptic will at least consider it?

    Obviously, Tractor Beam would have to disable it. In combat, maybe add a chance to fail or cause hull stress, like in the Star Trek: Voyager episodes "Hope and Fear" and "Timeless." Get away quickly, but with decreased duration, and it also inflicts considerable damage to your ship.

    Wait, hazzard to remove the goo and evasive maneuvers to get out of it right ? Am I missing something?
    Why report when there are counters ? Confused :confused:

    This is a really neat ability that has a unique application, much like ramming speed before it was made only usable under a certain hull threshold.

    I like it, and would rather keep it.

    Its a nice GTFO skill... But ya, I knew it was a glitch as soon as I saw it working on tribble. Surprised it made the final cut.
