The official "Everyone Buy a Vesta" thread

levi3levi3 Member Posts: 1,663 Arc User
T-10 minutes till we get the first real info - so is everyone buying a Vesta? Everyone should - heck if you are KDF only - re-roll a Fed and get a Vesta to!

So will you get a Vesta?

I am getting mine as soon as the Update patch launches.

    Making the prediction one last time:

    3000 ZEN minimum, probably 3500. Lots of whistles and bells. Amazing ship with the special consoles attached, less amazing without them.

    She is Awesome - and a turn of 13!! Told you rrincy it would be high - even out does the Intrepid.

    Console Set

    The Multidimensional Wave-Function Analysis Module, Quantum Field Focus Controller, and Sympathetic Fermion Transceiver may be equipped on any Multi-Mission Science Vessel. They are each part of the Experimental Systems set.

    The two-piece set bonus grants you Chroniton Integrated Quantum Slipsteam. When this set bonus is active it will upgrade your standard Quantum Slipstream. Chroniton Integrated Quantum Slip Steam is the fastest Slipstream Drive in the Federation and offers a 4X Slipstream turn rate modifier.


    The three-piece set bonus grants you a Quantum Focused Shield Bubble. A Quantum Focused Shield Bubble is effectively a perfect shield. While active, your ship?s hull is invulnerable and will take no damage, including damage caused to yourself from Ramming Speed. Your shields too become hardened ? the more Auxiliary power the more resistant they become ? up to 100%. However, while active, all weapons are offline.

    100% immunity - nice

    Yea... not gonna happen...

    I don't want that abomination anywhere near my account.
    Don't look silly... Don't call it the "Z-Store/Zen Store"...
    Let me put the rumors to rest: it's definitely still the C-Store (Cryptic Store) It just takes ZEN.

    Dev blog lists 10 consoles on all three variants.

    Runs off aux power instead of weapons.

    I posted this in the Blog thread but is my only gripe:

    "They really need to up the hull to 33k at least - 27.8k is just insanely low for a ship this size. i mean the escorts have as much as 25% more hull!!

    What gives guys??"

    That is barely more than the Intrepid a 300 meter class starship - this makes no sense.

    Meh, its just another sci ship, 3 weapons front and back it will lack the power of an oddy or armitage.... a fail ship to me.

    The chroniton slipstream drive might be interesting for tour the universes, providing its a constant fast slipstream.

    ROFL... The irony of it being you have to roll a fed toon before you can ever get a KDF one. Plus the vesta pack is a waste for KDF players because we would never use it. TBH though most KDF players won't buy it since nothing has come out for the KDF in a year now in the c-store.
    I see no KDF option, no sale.

    No doubt... No new KDF ships is part of the reason people who are diehard Klingon fans don't play the KDF side. They claim they understand the "build it and they will come" but they don't get it at all because they expect to not work on it and for KDF content to fall out of the virtual sky and into their lap and say here you go!

    As much as i love this news , i really think it should have included a KDF 3 set science ship too , as much as the fed side has had requests for high end science ships , the KDF have been crying out for them for a lot longer
