I've got one of each class on teh fed side but really want to pick up a vesta. Any real reason to get the 3 pack rather then just the more science version one? Help please! lol
The Vesta consoles are all useful, if you got the dough, getting the 3-pack for the invulnerability is worth it.
Beware of OC (Over-Consolization). You can pick up so many of these special console types in-game that you start to lose effectiveness. If you aren't getting the Romulan zero-point mod and the Borg assimilated console, the Vesta stuff will probably be good for you.
You really only need the 3 ships to take up space long enough to retrieve the consoles and the AUX cannons that you want.
After that, dismiss the ships you don't want. Because they are C-Store ships you can get the ships again since you already paid for them.
If you want more Aux cannons, repeat the process of dismissing a ships and keep pulling off the cannons.
I am personally looking at getting the Vesta set and just get 2 consoles and just fly the tactical ship. I will try out the Aux cannons but not sure if I want the cannons to be drawing off the Aux power draining from the Science abilities.
It's a hefty price but well worth the flexibility of consoles and being able to mix the ships parts for the look the you want. Plus your alts can fly the ships too.
Good luck!
UPDATE: I got the 3-pack, I am in the Recon (Tac) Vesta using MACO/Borg/Borg, 3x Aux DHCs, QFFP and Aux power cranked to 100. It's surprisingly resilient, I am used to cruisers and escorts and this ship is NOT a glass cannon, in about 12 missions, I died twice because I wasn't paying attention.
The QFFP is VERY nice on unshielded targets, took a regular cube out from about 50% to 0 in about 6-8 seconds. Even though I got the 3-pack, the skin for the Recon ship (IMO) is the best.
IMO, if you HAVE to pick one Vesta, and basically opting-out of the 33% discount for the 3-pack and not wanting access to the other consoles, I would pick the Multi-Mission Reconnaissance Explorer (Tactical) ship.
I am looking forward to trying the other variations on my alts, particularly the Multi-Mission Surveillance Explorer on my Sci alt.
