    I would buy this, but I've already bought this. :P

    Are the older c-store releases going to get an update to bring them in line with newer releases, both in appearance and performance? Could be done as one big release to encourage people to have a look through them and maybe get some sales from these older releases.

    Also, though, not desperately needed as Vesta is largely pretty damn good, will the vesta be brought in line with the other 3-packs? ie. bridge, weapons options (like the kumari)

    Is the Vesta on Sale? I was thinking of buying it for my toon but due to Arc I don't see the point as the game may be ending for me as soon as that goes live

    Great ship, a modern yet classic look with amazing consoles.
    It's hard to go back to my other ships after using it, shame about it not having a unique bridge though (maybe in the future?!?),

    The science Vesta is such a brilliant ship, 5 science consoles, 3 tactical slots, 2 engineering slots AND a hanger bay. What more could a science toon need? ^.^

    The Heal over time universal console is great when in a dire situation, too!

    Shame I only bought the science Vesta, so I have to buy the other two for 2500 zen. hehe.

    The Vesta is an amazing ship, whichever version chosen, with great consoles. The only issues are the lack of comparability of aux cannons with the innate sub system targeting, the lack of a Vesta specific bridge, and lack of other aux energy weapons. Set up requires a lot of compromise in weapons layout. If you can get her to turn a little quicker, two aux cannons front with a torp de jour, mines and a turret or two rear works with a aux to weapons warp core.

    I have been saying since the day the pack was released and I bought it KDF should have an equivalent.

    wait, it almost sounds like your talking about updating the vesta, and like not the intrepid. omfg dude.

    Well in his defense he didn't really suggest anything that would qualify as a straight-up buff to the Vesta. A unique bridge is hardly a gameplay advantage, and dil-store Aux phasers presumably wouldn't all come standard and would have to be bought separately. The aux phasers would just have to be balanced somehow to prevent a Vesta from just running six of them and suffering no real drawback for running high aux; maybe making them all fore-only so a Vesta couldn't run more than it can currently anyway.

    If we're talking about bringing the 3-packs in line, though, this would mean the Odyssey, Bortasqu', and Scimitar would also need dil store weapons of some kind.

    I like flying that ship with one of my characters, but there is one thing that really annoys me. Why aren't there any other Aux weapons, just DHCs?
    Maybe Cryptic could sell additionaly Aux Weapons at the Dilithium store, similar to the andorian phasers or spinal wave disruptors?

    I just hate DHCs...

    Can I get my money back for buying the Vesta's since I cannot login and play them due to the ****ed up nature of Season 8?

    When I finally do a Sci Captain, I would consider these ships. I'm not sure if it would work on a Tac Captain. Until then they are nice. But I don't have a use for them at this time.

    Come on devs, can you please make more types of aux powered weapons available for the Vesta. The people want it. :)

    I am wondering why they posted this in the first place. Did they change the Vesta?

    Its really sad you cant really use it full aux with the aux dhcs. Whenever i try my dps go down by a lot. Its like "look we gave it some special weapon pls buy it" but in the end you cant or better shouldnt cause its bad. I use elite fleet phaser beams. Hope we get sone other aux weapons for the ship some day. They vant really argue its to powerful after releasing the super op-ness that is the scim

    The Federation Vesta Line of Science Vessels is one of the most versatile ship lines available in-game. Read more about them and purchase them from the C-Store today.

    Use crosselling, make the Aquarius Bridge available for the Vesta if bouth Vesta & Oddy is owned.

    It doesn't really matter what bridges you make available right now since you CAN'T CHANGE THE BRIDGE.
