    There's a thread on this: https://www.arcgames.com/en/forums/startrekonline#/discussion/1232484/nws-kobayashi-maru-event-reward-thread

    But in brief, the weapons are Account Unlock like the Sompek reward. Unlock with one, then all can reclaim.

    Um... where? I can't seem to find them in my reclaim store...

    Event Store -> Account Reward Claim

    Yea... found it. Was looking in the wrong place earlier. lol

    is it just me or do these 'innate dmgx4' phasers not have dmgx4
    edit:
    to be more specific, a normal MKXII dmgx3 has better stats

    They have the leveling Infinity symbol on them, which I believe caps out at mk X or so. Just throw them through the upgrade system, and they should switch over to mk XII.

    I came back from not playing for a while for the summer ship and saw this weekend special. I have the 3 vouchers but for some reason the store will not come up when I use them. So how am I supposed to get the phasers?

    Slot the project under U->Reputation->Events, that'll take the vouchers. Should be in the Store on the top right under Events once that's done.

    Mine came out at Mk XII Ultra Rare. Also they do not indicate the four inate modifiers (i.e., DMGx4) on the item.

    Phasers, meh. None of my toons use phasers anymore. More fed-centric favrotism, eh ?

    Even if we concede to pessimism and say it is another case of Fed favoritism, phasers are still one of the most under-loved damage types in the game. So really, this is a good thing, at least in this case.

    For myself, who only uses Star Fleet sanchioned weapons - That's what I say too besides Phasers, the name alone just sounds cooler than the others :)

    It would be great to see a Phasers overhaul/update that runs a compression wave that increasing Crit and / or Hull damage penitration mod or , something along those lines...

    It also said they would now have 4 inate modifiers instead of 2. I see none on the item at all.
    Yeah, it really seems to do the same damage as a weapon with no mods. :/

    Because of its stacking damage buff, it comes with a slightly lower unbuffed damage value (90% of standard phasers). At full stacks, it gets up to 1.15 of standard phasers.

    But it has/gets no mods whatsoever, right?! (Apart from the usual [Ac/Dmg] on Epic). So, that would be +0.15 of standard Phasers, but with no mods. No mods? No thanks! :)

    All weapon rewards should be uber class with it being a single cannon... single cannons get no love at all... perfect weapon to give out to folks, just make em a must have item and wreck everyone's build.

    The devs made it clear in the S13 space rebalance that 'must have items' goes against what they're trying to accomplish.

    So If I'm reading this right, it takes them 46 seconds to spin up to 100% damage (ten 5-second cycles reduced by two bursts of weapon haste at 5 and 10 stacks), then another 46 seconds paying off the 'damage debt' they've built up by running behind so long, then from that point on you spend another 28 seconds to finally ramp up to the +15% damage state.

    I get it that they're named "prolonged engagement", but ~2 minutes of continuous firing??? Its somewhat hard to see how this isn't just a freakish curiousity item. It doesn't need to be best in class, but even for phaser boats I'm thinking I'll stick to Xindi phased-biomatter, KT emitters, or even simple Andorian [Acc][Dmg]x3 phasers. And compared to the actual best in class Terran Task Force unique disruptor... yeah.

    Has anyone upgraded this item to gold status yet? I might invest some dilithium to upgrade it but I'd like to know what it does at the gold level. Thanks!

    Yeah, actual damage mod phasers seem to be better. :/

    What they didn't tell you is about the secret awards if you raid the cargo pods... they are filled with packet after packet of ramen noodles! That's right, the full name of the ship is the Kobayashi Maruchan.
