I would like to find a fleet with a T5 Shipyard that would allow me to purchase a Fleet HEC. Thanks in advance for your response in pm or post.

    I believe First Aquarius Fleet is selling T5 shipyard access at 25mil EC for a 1-time purchase or 40mil EC for unlimited ship purchases.

    That's pretty damn pricey.

    When I was buying some T4 gear from a fleet that was selling gear and ships, they told me that a T5 Fleet Heavy Escort Cruiser would cost 4mil EC. Sadly, they weren't T5 military yet, so my fleetmate was refunded his EC. But, he could have gotten it at that price if they had it.

    You could make a thread in the Fleet forums (here: http://sto-forum.perfectworld.com/forumdisplay.php?f=79 ).

    It's possible that you could find a fleet willing to negotiate access to their shipyards in exchange for a combination of Fleet Marks, EC, and/or Dilithium.

    Now, I'm not sure if any Fleet would need your Fleet Marks if they've already got a T5 Shipyard, but it can't hurt to try and negotiate.

    Yep, I temporarily joined Aquarius to purchase a Tier 5 Fleet Assault Cruiser Refit. The cost was 25 million EC.

    To me, that was a good price, my current fleet is only at 160K military XP so I got the ship I always wanted far in advance.

    Good idea to always save your EC's :P

    If you're nice or seem like a nice dude, some fleets might let you buy a ship for free. But that's the rare exception, and since the T5 yard is new/rare/expensive-to-build it's perfectly justifiable to charge for it :)

    we dont charge anything to our fleet members to buy a ship, only that they help build a project
    25mil is a scam, a ship only cost 5mil max in resources

    Still looking for a T5 fleet I think I'm a pretty nice guy and while I am open to pay a modest amount for the service. I do understand it that the resources will be coming from me and my fleet (Module and Provisions).
    So if your fleet has a T5 Shipyard that would allow me to buy a T5 HEC please post or send me a pm Thanks in advance.

    I cant wait to get to tier 5! That will hopefully mean a near end to grinding the starbase. Of course they will make us grind something else.

    Indeed and with current changes me thinks its going to take us even longer to reach the goal that seemed to be getting close to just the other day

    Ultimately what's probably going to happen is that anyone who cares about the fleet ships at all is likely going to just grind EC to get access to someone's starbase. I don't think we'll see too many T5 bases. I am not certain if this is what the company wants or not, from a financial or retention perspective, but I think that's the ultimate reality of the situation. I, for one, was not willing to wait a year and a half to even hope to get a T5 ship, so I negotiated with a fleet for use of their shipyard. Pricey, but well worth it, IMO.

    I also don't anticipate the price coming down much in the near future given the ultimate scarcity of T5 fleets, and the expense of continuing to build ship provisions.

    Appears I may have been wrong about provisions coming from my fleet( or it was changed I hope for this one as I dont want to be wrong :o ). I would assume that a fleet with a T5 Shipyard would have more than enough to support there fleet and any "Guests" that may come over.However I wont (dont wanna be wrong again :D) and hopefully they wont charge me out the rear for this.

    Still lookinh tho for a T5 Fed HEC if there are any fleets willing to do some tradeing hit me up :)

    Go to ESD, and go bother 1st Aquarius. You need 25 mil ECs and your own FSM, but they will let you use their tier 5 shipyard to get whatever you want. Or you can give them 40 mil ECs and you get unlimited indefinite access to their shipyard for every character on that account. Good deal IMO.
    It is said the best weapon is one that is never fired. I disagree. The best weapon is one you only have to fire... once. B)
