Anyone tried the new Mirror Ki'Tang BoP and could tell me whether or not the ship can use the C-Store's Ch'Tang parts for customization? I'm really tempted to switch from Fleet Norgh to this ship, but I dislike the Ki'Tang basic design, and would rather use the Ch'Tang skin.
10% less hull and shields is a lot, too much really, mirror ships just arent competitive for PVP anyway
To be fair man, Birds of Prey have always been thin skinned and easy to pop. Even after the updates a few months ago to make them "tougher." It's like trying to bolt on applique armor on a wet paper bag, hoping to make the wet paper bag tougher.

What's this "PVP" you're speaking of?
10% less is nothing in already ridiculously easy PvE. At this point, with all the power creep going on, I tend to fly ships I like the look of, WHILE remaining at least somewhat competitive. And since there's no Fleet Ki'Tang/Ch'Tang, the Mirror one is a decent alternative. All the mobs are going to blow up fast regardless of the Hull %.
Before you go and buy it or open boxes to get it, just know that its animations are broken. The ship is permanently locked in attack position, the wings never adjust. Just a heads up, I got one, and I like it a lot, except for it looks like BoPs did at launch.

Awww! That is a huge disappointment.

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.
I agree cookie, it's a sweet ship, but I've had enough of flying ships with broken animations. My vet ships animations have been broken since November, all of the factions vet ships have been, but hey, they fixed the intrepid's animations within like a month of it being reported.
Don't expect Cryptic to fix the Mirror Ki'Tang animation glitch anytime soon, look at the Fleet B'rel... been out for years and it still can't use the B'rotlh outfit and still can't use the newer 3rd option skin material while the Non-Fleet Bre' Retrofit can...
