Any idea whether the Risa revamp/resort map will stay as a permanent replacement to the existing Risa map after this event concludes?
Nope, it goes back in their 'disney vault' for 10+ months.
Same as Winter Wonderland, Utopia Planitia, and Hearts and Minds. Hundreds if not thousands of man hours put in to projects, that spend more time locked away from players than available to them.
There's a reason Disneyland stays open all year, so it can make money all year!
as it turns out, yes, the the risian corvette is OP and needs a nerf. the mogie retrofit station setup with a 21 turn rate? this is bug ship tier. you could even run a 2 AtB setup on it and still have HE1. its sorta fragile sure, but you wont have to put any turn consoles on it like you would other escorts. dil mine neutroniums would be perfect for this thing.
you could proboly get away with not running EPtE on it too if its just going to have that high of an impulse mod, and be faster then even the bug ship. the bug ships impulse mod was proboly the number 1 thing that pushed it to a higher tier then the rest, people running EPtE post LoR should clearly see just how powerful a stat speed can be.
who would have thought an uprated yacht would become the most dangerous escort in the game :rolleyes:
Bort the stats are decent on the ship - but I would love it if you made it a little more competative with other escorts like defiant or god forbid - the Jem Bug.
In that vain I sincerely hope the Hull can be increase to the standard base escort hull of 30k and now the pretty universal - 1 shield mod.

Thanks for your consideration.
you must be joking. ships with certain stats far more powerful then average need to have downsides

Seriously? This ship is a BEAST. Who the hell needs +3000 hull anyway when you have such a high speed and turnrate? Most people will have trouble getting this ship in their frontal firing arc.

Those ships are by no means unbeatable... my Vo'Quv mops the flow with them in any 1on1 faceoff. At the end it comes all down to personal skill, knowing how to set up the ship, and of curse, the team you play with.
On a personal note, the only thing making the Bug ship something special is the 300m+ price on the EC ^^
also... let the grind commence (you had to pull the "gated event's" card again, had you?)
and btw. when will we see the first blog about the Scim dreads... i heard something like "later this june..."

Come on DDS - 98% of the people who play this event and get this ship are going to be blown to pieces in ESTF with a 27k hull and 0.9 shield mod.
I know for a fact that at the end of July the forums will be full of rage posts about how weak the ship is and how mad players are that they get blown up ALL the time in this ship.
Most players could not build a boff layout that would offset that low a hull and shield mod - you know that. This is going to be an issue end of July - I just know it.

Look, I don't mean to appear rude, but I am not seeking jamaharon.:cool:
How come most BoP pilots easily manage to survive ESTFs despite ~23k hull and 0.8 shield mod? :rolleyes:
Because most BoP pilots are a)KDF and B)not casual players c) most KDF don't use the BoP much anyways for ESTF because of those stats - I am one of the few i know that takes a B'rel into ESTF.
New home of the Romulan Republic.
I have an idea for what Season 11 should be; Season 11: The Big Bug Fix.
I have not been able to read my bug tickets in over a year, not even the tickets about not being able to see my tickets.
I find the drama of your signature proof of your immaturity, this means you, DR whiners.

I'm a casual player and part of a KDF fleet which entirely consists of casual players. We have countless BoP pilots among us, including myself, and I have never ran into problems in ESTFs with it nor have seen anyone in my fleet having problems in those. Hullpower means nothing in this game. All you need is to make sure that your shields are constantly buffed and you will notice that a 0.8 shield mod is sufficient for PvE.

It woudn't be STO if DDS didn't announce every ship needs a nerf before it's even available based on a long string of abbreviations that 95% of players don't even understand. Tradition dies hard, and DDS's play style and adamant belief that it is the only valid way to play is as unchanging as stone.

um...because they are AFK during ESTF, constantly hidden under cloak? Only comes out when the Cube has 1% of health left, then claim they "one-shot" a Cube!

You play KDF? If so - enough said - my point is made. Not that there are no good Fed players out there - there are lots - but KDF players(even casual) put a LOT more effort into actually learning how to fly and the mechanics of the ship. Most of the people who will get this ship will be Fed players - watch I know for a fact after 30 days the forums will be filled with Cryptic rage.
An interesting little ship. I love the looks, and I could probably make the stats work. It'll make a nice replacement for my Ha'feh if I use an AtB build (otherwise I won't be able to fit all the attack patterns and cannon abilities I want). I'll miss Quantum Absorption, and even Battle Cloak, but definitely not the pathetic shield power. Of course, the power of this ship is very different between PvP and PvE, in PvE it's decent, but not Charal/Khyzon/Fleet Defiant level, while in PvP the turn rate and defense bonus make it pretty scary.

In DDS's defense - he knows the game mechanics very well - how they can be best used to maximize a ship/build, however, unlike DDS 98% of the players don't have even 5% of his game knowledge and never will.

I rest my case.
I find it hilarious that you think all KDF players are amazingly talented supermen while Feds are just a bunch of drooling hillbillies. As a red side only player I'm not going to argue with that, but it think your statement could still stir up some irritation
still not impressed with the visuals of that ship...
it doesn't look TREK and worse it just looks boring. Nothing i can get excited about.
On the flipside i have that lingering feeling for a while now that with every Cryptic made-up Ship that is pushed out the game feels a bit less and less like Trek, i still am not over the monstrosity that the Ha'pax is and that it is flying around everywhere (because its the only free Tier 5 choice ...all 3 variants of it).
I had hoped for an army of D'Deridex and Mogai Warbirds in Sector Space with the Rom Faction, but instead the Ha'pax is just everywhere (and it doesn't even look like something a rag-tag-band of Farmers would be able to produce. I would expect them to fly more small BoPs than anything. But not those shiny new flying Space Stations. ...also if the Ha'pax would be scaled down by 80% it would be a fine looking escort.)
Anyway the whole Risa event doesn't give me that TREK vibe if i'm honest (not that shooting snowmen did... but that was at least fun... until it became a grind...), well lets just hope that it is FUN. Flying sounds like it could be fun... still Star Trek Rocketboots would have been way better than a Boba Fett Jetpack.
The clothing looks rather *meh* too...
i don't know, maybe this event is just not for me. *shrug*

And the big nerf crying already started before its even out.
Some people wont be pleased unless a ship is totally useless.

This is so true - I REALLY hope that the new Doff pack coming will offer for a limited time the chance to get the Tuffli again.
