That and the Risan corvette. Compare the schimi to the jem dreadnought for instance, quantifiably better, more compelling ships than many lockbox ones, let alone fleet ships.
Well, we haven't seen it in mass amounts. That's the thing.
Sure, seeing the base stats, and maybe a couple flying here and there. But LOTS of em, and people focused, particularly us here in the ole PvP section dedicated to min-maxing them and such. Often times opinions are formed based on raw stats, but only when it hits the main game do we really see and put the actual label of 'Op' 'Up' or 'balanced' on em.
So far, I have seen some crying OP, because it's the 'latest and greatest', a couple are saying UP, but a good deal I've noticed, both in this section and other areas of the forum are for the most part saying that it's pretty well balanced, though nearly every post I have read has said that the Thalaron console is pretty much useless PvP-wise.
I remain empathetic to the concerns of my community, but do me a favor and lay off the god damn name calling and petty remarks. It will get you nowhere.
I must admit, respect points to Trendy for laying down the law like that.
What, are you going to suggest that the additional fighter bay and +5% more base shields makes up for all the other stuff the scimitar gets in return?
Ignoring the universal consoles completely, this ship pretty much ****s on most of the 3 packs that have come before it. The odyssey especially has never seeemed so technologically out of date.

I hope to prove that wrong.
If only we had an AOE cloak that would allow providing cover to the scimi while it loads its thala....oh wait.

To an extent, it's not really panic. Oh sure, there are going to be folks that exhibit behavior which might suggest panic...but there's no denying powercreep/mudflation in the game. They can't sell a so-so ship...

I dunno. I doubt it will cloak the 'hard rock'n'roll laser show' that thing gives off. Nor will I cloak the sound either, so it'll still be a 'hey, look at me, I'm gonna fire this' sign.

Every new ship they unleash will overshadow all other ships bit by bit so realistically we dont need any more tier 6 or level 60 bs because its in process as we speak, just slowly but surely.

And to add insult to injury all of the previous ships get a nerf so that junior has to go use mommy's credit card to buy more Zen so his .4% chance to get the uber super new ship results in a maxed out credit card. Pay-2-Win.... the customer always loses.
