    Trendy, the link to the stats doesn't work

    Checking it out. I think Vanilla is messing with the code a little bit with this one, so I'll manually do some stuff.
    Fixed.

    Also we updated the blog. The Annorax has Secondary Deflectors.

    I bet theres a 5/5u version or something smaller and more conventional for the reward.

    There's another version of the Krenim warship.

    If you remember, when Annorax was trying to restore his Imperium, he hit a snag and the Imperium shrunk, or reverted to a less powerful version.

    The warship reverted to a smaller version too, along with the timeline.

    Maybe this will be a science ship too. It's called a patrol ship. I dunno It looks like it COULD be kinda sciencey.

    Have they published the likeliness of getting this ship in the Delta DOFF pack?

    Any word on the Synergy bonuses?

    So, the "Console Synergy" set for this ship requires:

    Console - Universal - Tipler Cylinder
    Console - Universal - Manheim Device
    Console - Universal - Timeline Analysis Sensor Grid
    Console - Universal - Temporal Shielding Matrix
    As far at that goes, all "Console Synergy" has meant in the past is that the ship can use a console that was previously restricted to other ships and does not come with the new ship. The other time they used that term was with the (T5) Avenger's ability to use the cloaking device console, and it didn't mean you could use the Avenger console on the Defiant or Gal-X on that case, so it's a good guess that it doesn't mean the new consoles will work on the Mobius or Wells in this case.

    Doesn't anybody wonder what the Krenim Heavy Raider looks like? There a no pictures. Maybe that's the patrol ship from "Year of Hell", or maybe it's a brand-new design? The suspense is killing me!

    You know there is one other item in this game that is labeled Timeship. We have already gotten the Krenim version of the Temporal Destroyer, now the Krenim version of a Temporal Science Ship. Could it be the 'free' ship is a 'shuttle' equivalent?

    I really would have rather not had this ship available at all than for it to be available this way. Keep funding the game, whales!

    It's the only thing keeping the game alive. :)

    There's not an overarching 4 or 5 piece set bonus, just a pair of existing 2 piece set bonuses (1. manhiem/ tip and 2. timeline analysis/ temporal shielding).

    Ok so I've heard different opinions online about why they chose to make it be in a DOFF pack instead of C-Store. I've heard they want more money, it cuts down on the amount of ships, they don't allow cross faction to be in C-Store or basically the ship buyer at Earth Spacedock. Is there like a confirmed reason or just pure speculation? I was personally upset about it because YoH was my favorite episode so having the ship would just make the game fun, but of course I've tried hard to get cross faction ships without success so, I doubt I will have better luck...

    Dude !!! You just got Trendy fired. Not cool.

    You can come stay with me trendy. That is until you get back on your feet. I got plenty of Coco pebbles and every video game system from the Nes up to the PS4 and 2 pcs linked up. Long nights of Super Mario All-Stars can cure just about anything. Should I pull out the couch bed?

    Please update the Krenim Dreadnought stats, concerning the Universal consoles. Please tell us what bonuses we get from a 2pc, 3pc and 4pc. Along with the resistance and whatever else we need to know. Ty in advance.

    There are no bonuses, other than the existing set bonuses tied to the existing consoles that can go onto the dread (i.e. equipping 3,4, or all 5 doesn't have anything beyond the existing 2 piece set bonuses: 1. manhiem/ tip and 2. timeline analysis/ temporal shielding). At least, that was what was explained to me this morning when I asked about it.

    It has pretty badass stats. I like the boff seating because it means the ship can remain flexible.

    Its a sci based ship, but can be used well by any profession captain. It only has one sci locked boff slot. The rest are unis. it also has 4 tac consoles and an extra weapon than other sci ships. Yet it has all the sci innate abilities, secondary deflector and a very high shield modifier. Interesting.

  • borgified007borgified007 Member Posts: 150 Arc User
    100 dollars = 10000 zen not counting bonus divide that by 275 and you get 36 point something. So basically 36 chances if you drop that kind of cash on it. What a RIP!

    A Science Vessel with a 4/3 weapon layout? And someone calls this weak?

    No, they are absolutely not.
    You can always try to bring your weapon power up to higher levels and then you deal extra weapon damage and all the science damage you did before. There are various powers, consoles and other abilities in the game that help buff your power levels so you could manage a high aux and a high weapon power.

    I have seen people talking about the odds of getting one of these ships, just what are the odds?

    *Edit Also is the ship account wide or just on the character that is lucky enough to get one?

    The way it reads, opening this Doff pack during the promotion period guarantees either 10 Lobi or the Krenim Dreadnaught. With which ratio, I do wonder? I'm sure 50/50 isn't happening.

    Of course, there is the question of what 10 Lobi can get you in the Lobi Store vs. the Krenim Dreadnaught...

    I'm sure others can quote the odds, but it's more heavily weighted towards the 10 Lobi. It's closer to having a Blue Moon month, like this past July.

    well.............

    If you were to open a promo pack every month of the year, "blue moons" would appear an order of magnitude more frequently than promo pack ships.

    How about comparing it to winning the maximum prize in a lottery? :worried:

    I heard a rumor it's around 1/100. But yeah it's a character unlock.

    300$ ship :neutral:

    I would of easily paid 30-50$ for this ship but 300 is too much
  • pweistheworstpweistheworst Member Posts: 986 Arc User

    Where do you guys come up with the 300$ number?

    100 dollars = 10000 zen (assuming you don't purchase from the ARC website to get a bonus) and if you divide that by 275 and you get 36.

    If the odds of getting the Krenim Dreadnought are only 1 in 100 (possibly less), that means the average player would have to spend at least $300 to get this ship ... or get VERY lucky.

    I was already planning to buy a bunch of duty officer packs and I was waiting for this event (I suspected it was coming). I'm not going to spend anywhere near $300 ... so I either get lucky and score a ship or I end up with a ton of doffs for my various characters.
    In the immortal words of Captain Sisko: "It may not be what you believe, but that doesn't make it wrong."

    Don't believe the lies in this forum. I am NOT an ARC user. I play STO on Steam or not at all.
