ship mastery and reclaimable ships?

i was thinking about ship mastery and reclaimable ships, many players claim and discard ships that can be reclaimed to save on ship spaces especially when they buy a ship pack, they might use one for a bit fancy a change discard it and claim another and so on.
i know ship mastery is unique to each ship in that you can level one up to lv4 or lv5 and all your other ships with mastery will still be unlevelled.
was just wondering if ship mastery on a ship will be remembered by the system if you discard a ship that has been levelled will it still be levelled when you claim a new one or will the mastery be reset as it is effectively a different ship.

When I think about everything we've been through together,

maybe it's not the destination that matters, maybe it's the journey,

 and if that journey takes a little longer,

so we can do something we all believe in,

 I can't think of any place I'd rather be or any people I'd rather be with.

    I guess the best way to find out one is to get some xp on a ship and see if you can reclaim it with its xp intact after another log in some other time.
    Still waiting to be able to use forum titles

    The mastery of that ship remains. For example if you have reached Tier 3 Mastery with your Intel Cruiser, discharge it and later in the game reclaim it, it will still have the same Mastery level as at the moment you have discharged it.
    OK, if I have to stay here for a while, your cieling ... looks idious.:D

    This is also the case with starship traits. If a ship has an excellent trait you want without it cluttering up your ship roster, you can master the ship and then discharge it without losing the trait.

    Which ships can safely be discharged and reclaimed? I'm saddened to find that I can no longer purchaser ship slots because I'm at the max. As new ships are added to the game, I'll have to discharge current ones but I only want to do so if they can be reclaimed. So...

    1. Fleet ships. If they are discharged, can they be reclaimed or do I have to purchase them again?
    2. What about ships earned as rewards for seasonal event reputation?
    3. Lock box ships?
    4. If a ship has been upgraded with a token, then discharged, is it still upgraded when I reclaim it?

    Of the 4 things that you listed, only a subset of number 4 will be reclaimable as they were. Any C-Store ship is reclaimable, and if it has been upgraded, it is upgraded for the account forever, you'll just have to revisit the Ship Selector and upgrade the reclaimed one for free. Everything else is a single purchase that will be gone for good when you dismiss it.
    This is an MMO, not a Star Trek episode simulator. That would make for a terrible game.

    don't know about the others but summer/winter & other event ships cannot be reclaimed regardless of whether they have been upgraded or not.

    the only ships I know for sure can be reclaimed are c-store ships.

    When I think about everything we've been through together,

    maybe it's not the destination that matters, maybe it's the journey,

     and if that journey takes a little longer,

    so we can do something we all believe in,

    You are not levling the ship as much as you are leveling you, then.
    Everywhere I look, people are screaming about how bad Cryptic is.
    What's my position?
    That people should know what they're screaming about!

    Fleet Ships-No Reclaim
    Seasonal Ships-Will have to re-earn
    Lock Box Ships-No reclaim
    Upgraded-Yes
