More enemy ships in starfleet? Elachi ships in earth orbit? What have became with the proud of starfleet? STO is more and more a space MMO without Star Trek. I don't want this ships in earth orbit.
Flying a enemy ship for an intelligence mission is ok, but as a regular ship?
Oh wait, i can feel it, someone will brinf up "oh, this will Break PvP" anytim... oh, already happend...
Damn, stop flaming the **** out of everything befor the stats have been relesed even remotly. Theres a high chance this thing will have a 5min CD and the active time wont cross the 5 sec mark... and also, no stats yet, so keep low.
Besides that, nice, Elachi Ships... but personally i would still have prefered a Undine Box (and a special Capital box involving the Tarantula... sorry, i had to do this ^^ ...but on second thought, just make it a nukara T5 rep reward for people having the recluse... damn i want that ship, say, how many money do you want for it?)
Yes, teh Ships look nice, but iam not eager to get one yet... maybe with my KDF tech (he still needs something strange) but all in all, nah.
But big UP for the cresent weapons. I definetly will hit a few of those.... and mainly just for the looks ^^

I miss Star Trek in that game.
More enemy ships in the Klingon Empire! ... YES!!!!
I mean, as long as we are piloting crazy, non-Federation/KDF ships, we might as well get something that actually appeared in the show, like a Fesarius vessel or a Talarian warship
Or, heck, why not the actual Elachi ship from "Silent Enemy"? Cryptic could always call it a "retrofit" or something if they're worried about canon. The new ships look cool, but I was hoping for something resembling the canon ship a bit more.
(The rest of the new stuff looks cool, albeit hilariously broken. I'm going to continue mostly staying out of PvP, I think.)
Is there any chance that the Doff capacity could be raised from 400 on, as there are now signs of more Doff packs with new species and powers, and actually not enough room for much of these, as making room for them in my roster, means deleting a good swath of green and blue Doffs, or even purples, as almost a quarter of my Doff roster, is purples, there alone.
It all 'feels' as it's time for a Doff roster increase, as I'd like room to access the new doffs, without losing out on my older ones. I actually still do Doff missions, despite being past Doff XP cap on all bars, for the express purpose of Fleet Doff reports for Fleet marks, from time to time. It all 'is' a chain I still use, and feel the Doff cap is actually too limiting, at the present time.
A Cap up to 500 or even 600 would be nice, since it 'is' all money for PW and all.
As for the rest of the new Elachi stuff, given the new Lobi consumables denoted, could there be a new Elachi themed 'kit' for acquisition in the future, as as a lot of the Elachi toys, seem well fit for a universal 'toy' kit, that doesn't have to be career hinged. That was the first thought that popped in my head, on seeing the Elachi lobi toys.

I don't see how different types of ships make this game "less" Star Trek.
Personally, it always struck me as odd that a vast United Federation of Planets, plural, would only ever use starships of Earth design. That always bugged me about the shows. Shouldn't a united Starfleet be more diverse?
Looks good Cryptic, except for one thing. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE discontinue or lower the chances of getting those damn DO mini-packs. I have more of these then I ever need thank you very much.

I guess the Klingons have mutated into warhammers 40k Orks. We'll make it all orky I mean Klingony.:P
No, but with the Alliance we have with the Orions, Gorn, Mind-sifters and fang kitties .... We have a nice collection of different styles already in orbit ... so a few more will add to the flavor.

My KDF characters couldn't agree more.
(Though, on that note, it'd be awesome if we had actual Ferasan ships.)
ok, I can admit I've been in a slump this week, but this lockbox really isn't helping. We've gone from disruptors with constant bleed through to "OMFG! My BO3 just one shoot that cruiser!" Now throw in a Grav well with subnuc properties and you can see how my day is going. Love the lol-tastic ship that has a massive charged shot...in exchange for no front shields in a game where shields are king. There is just so much wrong with this lockbox, sure other lockboxes had OP stuff, I'm still trying to track down another DEM DOFF because of how awesome it is, but I'm afraid to see what these DOFFs can do.
Hi, my name is: Elim Garak, Former Cardassian Oppressor
LTS, here since...when did this game launch again?
Mirror Valdore as well ... heck ... I'd be happy with just alternate ship skins in some cases.
Something like that crossed my mind also. With these special ships, it would be nice if it unlocked a special hull type and pattern for all of your other ships. If not, maybe add the skin to the prize drop that can be used on other ships. The black and green looks really nice and somewhat Borg. I know a few people that will be all over those new weapons just for their look.

Looking for a new fleet? Drop by the in-game chat channel, "tenforwardforum", and say hi to the members of A Fleet Called Ten Forward (Fed) and The Orion Pirates (KDF). If you already have a fleet you are happy with, please feel free to drop by our chat channel if you are looking for a friendly bunch of helpful people to socialize with.
how many different types of crescent weapons are there? just cannons i suspect? maybe just DHCs?
and are you guys crazy with that PER SHOT chance for a shot to COMPLETELY bypass shields AND bypass some resistance? guess no devs are left that remember why AP weapons got changed. considering how well i can deal damage through shields as it is, these weapons will be an i win button. the valdor console is a per shot procing weapons, and it goes off every 0 to 7 seconds, i do not trust this to be any different.
these weapons and that aoe projected subnuke/ams/stun console look vindictively pvp ruining :mad:
Seriously, this has the potential to be flipping ridiculous, especially if it comes in DHC form and someone's using Rapidfire 3. It depends on the particulars the proc rate and the bypassing. It's essentially an upgraded form of DEM for those shots that proc, and that does not bode well for anyone who gives a flying TRIBBLE about PvP workability. It's bad enough we have those Tholian Web Mines, all the plasma weaponry, and the various DEM builds (especially ones using the Marion Dulmur doff with BO). This game did not need more accursed bleedthroughs, shield bypasses/disables, etc.

You are a fool if you can't see the potential problem with having weapons that have a 'proc' that involves bypassing shields AND damage resistance. Unless the % of weapon dmg that goes through is pathetically low, that WILL cause problems. Of course, PvEers won't care. . .PvE opponents can't even keep their shields up anyways, they just want to ooh and aah over the shiny 'crescent' effect.
You may be correct about the console, though. . .if the cooldown is 4-5 minutes and it's not as unbalanced as we're fearing, it wont be TOO much of a problem. We're just really, really aware of the fact that Cryptic tends to break stuff on a regular basis and then take their time to fix it thoroughly.

I'm going to go out on a limb and assume you don't know much about 40k Orks because your reply seems way too serious.
Warhammer 40K orks are notorious for looting other peoples ships and modifying them into Orks ships which was why I was mockingly comparing them to the Klingons.;)
Though to be fair it's the same situation with the feds.

good idea. I think they should put them in a box or lobi store with the 'rarity' of the 10 console ships

Totally worthless to me so long as lockboxes are involved
sell them at the Exchange?
No, but with the Alliance we have with the Orions, Gorn, Mind-sifters and fang kitties .... We have a nice collection of different styles already in orbit ... so a few more will add to the flavor.

Done this but the sheer volume drops the price down to the point of being about worthless.

sometimes I trade them with other players, and you won't believe what they are willing to trade in for some doff packs
or I sometimes put them in the fleet bank
but I suggest you sell stacked boff packs at the exchange. better to get some hundreds of ECs back than nothing
