*NOTE: The odds of winning the Jem?Hadar Attack Ship are rare but have been normalized based on the price of the Reinforcements Duty Officer Pack (275 ZEN) when compared to the Winter Packages (125 ZEN) we were selling during last year?s Winter Event. Ship details can be found at the bottom of this page.
Heh, I bought keys for the winter event (strictly to get this ship) as I want it in the worst way, but when they start talking about normalized odds I see boxes of useless junk.
34,500, 1.0 shield mod, 20 turn rate, 4 eng and 5 tac consoles, it really is unprecedented, nothing else is stat'ed so absurdly. its as durable as a cruiser, agile as a bop, and outguns everything by default. i hate this thing so much.

"From today until server maintenance during the morning (PDT) of Thursday, November 15, 2012, every Reinforcements Duty Officer Pack you open will also include either 10 Lobi Crystals or a Jem'Hadar Attack Ship*!"
Heh, well you get other stuff along the way - but 10 Lobi per pack is better odds than the lockboxes were... and you actually get more out of the Reinforcement Pack than a Lockbox in general... so I'm not surprised there's been so much Jem spam (and even some folks popping Weavers).

Things are getting pretty absurd. I mean, this ship isn't new, but its still stupid nonetheless.
I'm so not a PVE hero. I'm hopeful that they're working on PVP stuff, but I'm finding it harder to see myself playing this in a few months time.
Not bashing you, Cryptic. You guys need to make money, that's fine. I just don't think that this game is going down a path that resonates with what I want as a consumer.
I guess there will be bugs and vestas everywhere in few weeks. Disgusting.
"Cryptic Studio’s Jack Emmert (2010): Microtransactions are the biggest bunch of nonsense. I like paying one fee and not worrying about it – like my cellphone. The world’s biggest MMO isn’t item based, even though the black market item GDP is bigger than Russia … microtransactions make me want to die.”
I prefer to fight other people, just my playstyle.
Pretty eager to see how Season 7 of Star Trek: The Struggle Between the Vesta and Bug turns out. Its looking pretty lame right now, hope the pilot episode is decent at least.
Right now there are so many jem bugs that people are almost exclusivly flying just that ship. Its frankly tearing my poor kitty cat atrox to shreds. I have no chance whatsoever if im facing 1-2 of them.

I don't really want a BUG to use, but I've become a Ship Collector...
There goes my savings account.

I was sure I read somewhere on these threads there was someone claiming he ate up Jem Bugs for breakfast,lunch,and dinner with the new fleet Defiant??
As a Jem Pilot I will agree with you Levi. The Fl. Defiant is very very potent.
PvP between these two ships, with truly talented pilots, can be equated to flying aces of WWII. When I get the chance I stop what I am doing just to watch. It's truly awesome to behold.
It's Alpha is deadly to the Jemmy when done properly. Have fun with it. I envy you.

Thanks for the Info - but I suck at PvP - I am a mouse clicker and that does not get you too far in PvP.
Although my best match was in Ker'ret when I.K.S. Valkyrie? The guy who added the U.S.S ships names to his post tried to take on my fully spec'd for tanking Oddy.
My Engineer fought hard for like 3 min and it was a stalemate going no-where from what I remember before the instance auto-rest and then all hell broke lose at the spawn and we never met up again.
To this Day I don't believe he ever was able to add the U.S.S. Sphincter to his list. Now I pretty much do doffing exclusively and the Sphincter spends most of it's time at the back end of the Federation.
Edit: When the Vesta launches a New ship Under a Science Toon will carry on the name of U.S.S Sphincter

"NOTE: With the above promotion running, it is possible to win the Tuffli and the Jem'Hadar Attack Ship from the same pack"
Imagine not only getting the bug, but getting a Tuffli at the same time!
Er, that's the other way around...ahem.
Doesn't that mean twice as unlikely to get one ?
Awoken Dead
Now shaddup about the queues, it's a BUG
...did they really or is that just a fake message?
It's not paranoia when you know they're out to get your money!
edit: Okay, yeah - I can see them getting a spike in revenue - spamming Jems like crazy.
"odds of winning vary"

Thanks Cryptic. This lifted my Klingy spirits a bit.
Just a hunch. But, I'm guessing there are going to be a lot of KDF Jemmy's around Hee-hee.
LOL "Vesta, Doffs, Vesta, Doffs, eek I can't decide" (Fortunately I don't like blue)
Haha.
Ya, ugly little spud ain't she ?
....winning ugly that is.

They do. 10 Lobi per pack unless you get a Jem...

Yep. You're right.
