I always thought the Fleet Low-Tier Retrofits were just for nostalgia and sacrificed survivability of "higher tier" ships for turn rate and stuff.
That said, the plain Vor'cha Retrofit has the same boff Layout and more hull and all the Fleet K'tinga gets is 1 point in turn rate and a 1.1 shield modifier.
The Fleet K'tinga should either cost a heck of a lot less than other Fleet Ships (and this goes for all inferior Fleet ships) or be buffed to justify the price of 2000 Zen.
I don't think Cryptic will make any real drastic changes on the Fleet K't'inga or any older Fleet ships in terms of ship stats.
but i think the most realistic chance that older Fleet ships to be updated is to just replace one of the Non-Commander Boff station(s) with 1 or 2 Universal Boff Stations so they can just as flexible and would be on par with the newer power creep ships thats out now.
other realistic chance besides that if the Dev's decides to expand the level cap to 60 and introduce Tier 6 Ships with a new generation of Advanced Fleet/Elite Fleet Ships that have far better stats and boff's stations make some of these iconic ships perform better than thier current T5 counterparts not only in terms of stats but flexibility.
I don't think the issue was ever the stats of these ships but Boff stations if u look at the best PvP ships especially the Jem'hadar attack ship, Temporal ships, other lock box/c-store ships. they all have atleast 1 or 2 universal boff stations.
