Ferengi and their ship

So I am making a federation character. I want to make a Ferengi or a Vulcan.

If I make a Ferengi, is there any way for me to get a D'kora easier? For example, maybe it counts as a tier 5 ship that I have to pay modules for at the fleet requisition person, but I can get it cheaper than having to open 400 lock boxes for it or something? If I can get my hands on a D'kora... SOLD!

Vulcan's get mind meld and nerve pinch, which although mostly just flavor, that is pretty cool. I would rather have a D'kora though. Although having access to a vulcan ship cheaper would also be pretty neat.

Any other suggestions? If so, what makes any other race so good? Andorians qualify for special fleet weapons maybe? Aliens have more personal traits?

    The cheapest way right now to get one is to buy one off the exchange, currently 240Million EC. Search D'kora in the Reward Packs section of the exchange and look for the orange icon for current prices.

    **Do NOT be fooled by the D'kora Holo-emitter.

    Andorian Phasers are available if you own an Andorian ship, not a character. A Ferengi is nice if you want to save some EC on merchandise(filling fleet projects).

    The D'Kora comes from....You guessed it....The Ferengi Lock Box! So the only way to get it is to buy it with EC. Or in true Ferengi fashion, you can play the Lock Box slot machine, and lose all of your money. :rolleyes:

    these routinely drop down to 200m, so dont buy when they are too high.
    as mentioned above, also be careful of the d'kora holoemitters that are constantly being posted for 150m-200m.

    How is that the D'Kora can equip cannons? lol. Didnt know that.. that ship is NOT supossed to equip weapons like cannons.. xD. Cryptic is really amazing to do whatever they want with the ships lmao. And 4/4 weapons loadout, same story. The D'kora was never a warship or a ship loaded with guns. I mean, there are a lot of ships out there i never tried, but im glad to for these very same reasons. I only wish cryptic will respect more the ships of the shows with their original configurations, and not making em as they wish.

    And talking about the ship, everybody says the dkora is a nice ship, seeing the stats right now, it is xD. Theorically the D'kora should be inferior to , for example the Galaxy, but its not the case.

    The only way to get the D'kora is the exchange, and its not cheap, of course. Or you can try to save lobi and go to the lobi store for it.

    Why? It had cannon weapons in the series.

    Why? In the series, it was clearly stated that the Ferengi Marauders were a match for the Enterprise-D.

    Four, I think?

    But yeah, D'Koras were almost OP in the TV show. Expecting them to be less awesome in STO is illogical. :P

    Twice that I can recall. Once in the Stargazer, the second time was in the 2nd season episode "Peak performance" when they strike right after Worf TRIBBLE the tactical console, causing Picard to brush off the Ferengi as just another sensor phantom.
