The duty officer mission will reward either a MK XI rare or very rare version on crit. Obtaining a MK XII very rare version is currently not possible.
Yes I know it isn't possible, I'm just saying maybe they should make it possible...or add some type of doff mission so least both factions can upgrade.
If I may ask, what is the point of this type of torpedo? I got one of these launchers to try it out for a bit, and for the life of me, I don't yet see why I would use it. What does it do better than some other type of torp?
Thanks,

I'm sure your DPS is great, but as Kahless said, "a petaQ with high system mastery is still a petaQ." (Well, he should have said it...!)

Its not the absolute best torpedo launcher for all situations but it does respectable damage and has many useful properties.
1) extremely fast projectile speed means you can actually shoot the target's hull instead of having to worry that shields will come back up before it gets there
2) radiation damage-over-time, similar to plasma fire damage-over-time but a little stronger and (possilbly) less resistable
3) secondary (delayed) kinetic damage explosion, so if the first kill and DoT didnt do the job, the delayed boom might
Okay, I guess those are all selling points, but I'm not sure if they'll be enough to drag me away from my love of photons and quantums (I love the classics). One thing I noticed during my test drive was that when a ship that's been harghpenged goes to 0 hull, it explodes immediately, not in the going-going-gone fashion that is the norm. I don't know if that a bug or a feature, but it's there, for whatever it's worth.
Thanks again.

I've got a purple Mk 11 harpeng as a critical success on the 'obtain harpeng' DOFF mission. I recall having a blue one months ago until S6 changed the rarity. It did some weird things to my Shard of Kahless too- it's purple on one toon, gold on the other.

I actually just got a crit on a harpeng doff mission and its blue mk11 only.

Good all-around torp
