Ouroboros Temporal Raider - Questions

steaen

I'm considering purchasing one of these (although I'm holding off at least until next week in case of any Black Friday ship deals or something), but I have a couple of questions about it, and I'm hoping someone on here who owns one can help.

- Firstly, is it actually any good? I appreciate that 'good' is highly subjective, but in an overall sense would you recommend it as a worthwhile purchase?

- Secondly, I believe it comes with the same timeship bridge as found on the Wells/Mobius, but are you stuck with that bridge as is the case with those ships, or can you switch to a different interior as with most other ships?

Fisrtly, the 31st century ships are top notch. Their stats are great, their consoles and set bonuses are surprisingly good and all factions can use them.

Secondly, they're locked to the Wells bridge and have no interior beyond that. Also they don't have any of the faction hull materials so you either keep the vanilla look or slap on rep shields.

My recommendation is to get the 31st century bundle.

The temp bundle is great.

I have the Eternal, bought first, and the Chronos, bought on a separate occasion (I know, I broke the bundle and lost some bang for my buck). They are both awesome ships. I haven't quite had a reason to buy the Ouroboros yet, but probably will eventually.

The lack of customization options is disappointing, but overall I think the quality of the ships make them worth it. After all, what good is space barbie if the ship is bad?

The Temporal Raider WAS one of the best of its class in the game, until the nerfpocalypse demolished the temporal powers. It's probably still one of the best buys in the c-store, but I think there are better options if you can get them. The Miradorn raider is out of this world awesome.

My issues with the ships is their designs as they look awfully generic, the only design I even remotely like from them is that of the Ouroboros. But when comparing all future ships for their designs from best to least I would order them as: Wells, Ouroboros, Paradox, Eternal, and Chronos.

I don't see anything 'generic' about these designs at all.

The set is probably the most worthwhile to get as it can be fully used across all factions, so in part, it's the most cash efficient. However in terms of usefulness, there are better ships per faction. I favour the Arbiter (Fed), Kar'Fi (KDF) and the Kara (ROM, but it works best with the consoles from it's older counterparts).
