Kerrat, upsetting the poor Feds

Playing kerrat last night just getting my fed 10 had this one fed player in a lifer ship which I killed 6 times, pretty much one shooting on the alpha decloak.:):)
He/she starts saying that I'm the problem with the game and the klinks make it no fun.
At which point I pm him/her saying its nothing personal but the ship he's in has weak shield and he's/she's slow to react to my bop doing an alpha strike on him.:P
Just wondering if anyone else is getting stick from the Feds in kerrat when they go boom!

Typical restart spawn camp.
Typical change in numbers that breaks up the spawn camp.*
Finding a Vesta that was involved in part of that camp engaged with the Borg. Ahem, decloaking and delivering the fatal blow.
The Zone complaint about KDF not wanting to fight 1v1 from the guy in the Vesta. Yes, this same guy that was moments ago participating in the restart spawn camp.
Finding the guy in the Vesta once again engaged with the Borg. Decloaking, killing the Borg, giving him a moment to heal, and then killing him.
Additional complaints in Zone about KDF.
The guy mindlessly attacking me at the KDF spawn because I've ticked him off, dying over and over to the other KDF that were probably scratching their heads while I just flew around in circles, and getting one of the fastest Kill10's I've ever gotten.
*Funny how that tends to work. Are you a Fed getting slaughtered by KDF? Wait 15 minutes. Are you a KDF getting slaughtered by Feds? Wait 15 minutes. Some of the best play in there, imho, takes place during the moments between those shifts where things are almost equal in there.
You see, your average fed see's a Bird of Prey and thier mind goes "wow, what a kool looking ship.." then they realize that the BOP is not a fed ship.
and when they realize that a well handled BOP is every bit as deadly as it is visually stunning, with... they turn into 9 year olds having a bad day. 9 year olds, with overly indulgent parents. Unfortunatly Daddy Stahl, and Moma "Geko" Rivera just refuse to make the BOP any easier of an opponent for them. They have to dig into the data base of exploits cheats and hacks to win.. or learn the games combat systems... and... how to fight thier ships. And they have to learn the ships...
When ever I feel I need to be entertained I go read the fed ship forums and such with the constant threads of This ship is OP, or that ship is OP, buff/nerf some particular class of ship, and my favorite "WHAT SHIP IS BEST?" (now personally I have a thing for KDF battlecruisers, but thats just me.)
Eventually they either learn, or go find another game to play.
Khemaraa sends
feds moan all the time its what they do but here is alittle tip.
when you load into kerrat.
Turn the camera around and wait for the strike then pop a few shield buffs and the fight goes on after all thats not hard to follow now is it
Science ships aren't weak... don't think they are... you're absolutely wrong. Subspace Jumper console is a GODSEND for PVP. Keeping Tactical Team up at all times is also a must... someone decloaks and alpha strikes you? They have to get through your absurb shield capacity x4 thanks to Tac Team. If you get hit REAL hard... Subspace Jump and Photonic Shockwave and Tractor Beam.... you just ended their Alpha Strike quite well. Birds of Prey don't have any true advantage persay when you know how to build your ship properly. I highly recommend doing some research about abilities and how they can be used both offensively and defensively. One last tip: Energy Siphon isn't so much a power drain from your enemy... but a power buff for you... use it like so.
Yet its our fault when they come in expecting PvE and get attacked.
Its all moot now as plans to change Ker'rat are in the works and I bet dollars to darseks its to make the zone less PvP oriented due to fed outcry of us mean old klingons doing exactly what we are suppossed to do in the zone to begin with given its design and function.
I guess Kirk, Picard,Sisko and Janeway used the last of Star Fleets strong back bone up before sto came to be.
R.I.P
And before you go ahead and gloat too much, you might want to dig around the forums a little... There are significantly more KDF than Feds crying over Ker'rat.
1st- Klingons have superior ships with better turning radius and the battle cloak
2nd-Klingons can now push a button eliminating ALL space hazards.
3rd-Klingons have OP equipment like the plasmonic leech and the aceton assimilator ect...
4th- They nerfed scramble sensors so that the opponent can continue to fire on you instead of firing at his/her own faction.
5th-With the last patch Engineering Team 1 now clears Viral Matrix 3 so there is no way to placate a Klingon ship or thier massive spawns
The game has changed so much in the last year and there is no balance anymore so go ahead and yuk it up 19 klinks shooting a poor Fed.
I like it when they're flashing green with no shields because they're too stupid to know that hazard emitters clear the borg shield neutralisers.
Cowards take hostages. Klingons do not.
R.I.P
Also, the Battle Cloak is not an OP device. In fact, cloaking while under fire is extremely dangerous. Also, there are many ways to disable the cloak.
2. What button are you talking about?
3. Plasmonic Leech- Not OP, in fact it is resisted by Power Insulators and the drain can be easily countered
Aceton Assimilator- Shoot it with torpedoes, end of Aceton Assimilators.
Other equipment is rarely seen or used. I prefer a Nadeon Detonator over a Bio Neural Warhead
It is a poor warrior that relies on these equipment instead of his own skills.
4. All Science abilities were nerfed to near uselessness.
5. Not every BOP carries an Engineering Team.
1st Battle - I was in a Cruiser and my teammate had a Sci vessel. We were matched against 3 BoP's. The BoP's would swoop in decloak tear up our shields then be gone before we even knew what happened. We would fight them off time and again, if one of us went down the other quickly followed. Sometimes we would kill one or two of them and drive the others away sometimes we would be space debris. It was a hell of a lot of fun and I enjoyed watching the skills of those BoP pilots.
2nd Battle - I was in an escort by myself and matched against 2 BoP's, it was one of those times in Kerrat when there weren't hardly anyone there. I flew around never knowing where they were at and from what direction they would come from, it gave it a horror movie quality with the same jumpiness involved when they would decloak and shred me. Every once in awhile I would catch one but most of the time I spent respawning which like true warriros they allowed me to do without dishonoring themselves by spawn killing. I believe this is the most fun I ever had in Kerrat and I lost badly.
To those who whine about Kerrat, its not always about winning but the fun of the battle.
The funniest part about this is he expects us to believe he actually saw 19 Klingons anywhere. Visit Kerrat almost any time of day and you're likely to see at least half a dozen Federation ships, not Klingon ships, parked at the spawn point. But if you insist on firing upon me at the respawn point, I'll insist on ramming your AFK buddies and killing them with a warp core breach. So go ahead and help me send your friends to Grethor.

All cloaks should be canon.
I agree Kerrat needs to be for lvl 50's only. But it isnt only the KDF who does the sort of thing youre talking about. I recall several times playing my Klink at the Capt lvl and being spawned killed over and over by Fed admirals camped at the respawn point. Make sure you use both hands when pointing fingers so you can include both factions.
Gee let me list the names for you and you go look them up...
CryoX
Kaine
Red Laurence
Misdemeanor
Emo Joe
Tunguska
Eiybot
Stardagger [currently banned]
Grim Death
Sibok
Dirty Old Man
Hannibal
Nightwish
Ombji
Kempek
Deathstroke
Baltazar
Djinn
Motar
Most of these are with tthe ISC fleet and yes they do meet in Kerrat for 1-vs-1 sessions to test equipment. My toon "Grimsey" is one of thier favorite targets. So yes I do know what is like to face 19 klinks.
I haven't actually gone that much through forums, so I might be wrong, but I suspect the KDF ones mostly whined about respawn farming.
When I think of that, I had the funniest encounter few weeks ago with respawn farming. I pulled in the Tactical Bortasqu' and there were four ships farming, but i had the lol
Then one of them was quite persistent of buzzing around me and trying to blow me up 1 on 1 without the others (they were caught up fighting other KDF) with a Star Cruiser.
Anyway my point was that because the Fed. starts at level 1, and therefore has much more players, you can expect their number of unexperienced or ignorant players to be larger. And those who don't understand the game mechanics are the ones that usually whine.
Remember, every one of us was a noob in his/hers own time. :P
But this is nothing we should generalize around, I for one had my share of lolz with the Galaxy of all ships against confused & inexperienced KDF. Comes back to the person, not the whole faction. And even that person can learn and then it's payback time.
P.S. I believe the other player ment the 1000 day veteran ship (Chimaera/Peghgu') as it is for now only availible for veterans & lifetime subscribers.

Gotta get dem purplez. I love it when you're sitting on a feds TRIBBLE, adding additional windows with disruptor fire and they still wont target you as they need to get all the borg repair hulk kills.
Also I dont know if I'm kind of annoyed for not being on that list or a little relieved that I'm not haha :P
Except for that Defiant, right?
R.I.P
thats one of my big issues with that place. i understand that is a point of a place but there should be some respect from players that if you see someone fighting the borg that you dont wait untill they are hurt the most by the borg then decloak and finish the job the borg couldnt that is just dishonorable.
Now I try not to attack anyone in spawn until they move aggresively after the initial furball. In fact I try to move away from the intial furball. But I'm not perfect, I have moments;) Also if you pulled a cube solo thats your problem, not mine. Its not my job to keep the carebears safe and cozy.
