Will this one come with the frigate carrier pet unlock like the t5 version? Have a friend who still wants a frigates for his Breen carrier and he didn't play when the t5 version was available.
T6 with a 4/2/1 weapons layout, raider flanking, and no cloak?
Is it just me, or was the ball dropped on this?
I mean, it's good for Admiralty, but it seems like a Pilot Escort/Raptor/Warbird would be a better choice.
Space Barbie Extraordinaire. Got a question about Space Barbie? Just ask.
Things I want in STO:
1) More character customization options such as more clothing options, letting the toon complexion affect the entire body, not just the head. Also a true RGB color picker applied to all costume and appearance options, which would allow for true appearance customization and homogenous colors instead of "this same exact color looks vastly different on two different pieces."
2) Bridge customization, not bridge packs. Let us pick a general layout and adjust the color palette, console appearance, and chair types, as well as more ready room layout options.
3) Customizable ground weapons, i.e. The aesthetic look of phaser dual pistols but they shoot antiproton bolts. For obvious reasons this would only apply to standard ground weapons.
4) For the love of Q please revamp Plasma Ground Weapons. They look like demented Supersoakers right now.
5) True Vanity Impulse and Deflector effects similar to Vanity Shields.
6) A greater payout for hitting T6 Reputations. Currently it takes more time and resources to get from T5 to T6 than it does to get from nothing to T5. Make that grind really pay out at the end.
7) Mirrorverse Refugee event similar to AoY/Delta/Gamma, complete with new Mirrorverse recruits for all factions.
8) Independent Faction, because yo ho yo ho a pirate's life for me!

Don't let them promote you. Don't let them transfer you. Don't let them do anything that takes you off the bridge of that ship, because while you're there... you can make a difference.

Yes it does, it's on the description... and really?, a Breen with cloak?, since when they have cloaks?... anyway, I'll get it, hope I can get new pets for my carrier too..

They're talking about a special experimental weapon, like the Slamshot or Dual Warhead Launchers. Without a mention of a specific one, we're relegated to yet another lightning cannon.

Something I've actually been looking forward to. I still use the Plesh Brek on my Eng because I haven't found anything that's a better fit, so having a straight upgrade is great.

I'm aware of that.
I'm just commenting that even though this is supposed to be an Event Ship, the stats seem underwhelming when compared to other T6 ships.

Out of curiosity, will the fleet starbase winter ship holographic decorations ever be fixed? My fleets got the project done last year, but only 2012-2014 display correctly. 2015 shows the 2016 ship with a 2017 banner. 2016 doesn't exist at all.

It's free... what do you expect? it'll get the job done but there will be better ships where you can spend your $ on. new ship trait and admiralty card, folks with $ will have better options.
But, to be honest, the only Breen ship I'll ever need is the Rezreth Dreadnought Cruiser.
Funny thing is that is my least favorite Breen ship out of the two I have so far, Rezreth and Chel Boalg. Chances are I will like the Plesh Tral more than the Rezreth but less than the Chel Boalg.

Agreed. I mean, it's just a menu option. Would it really take more than five minutes to fix?
It is simply factually impossible for a free ship that is an upgrade to an earlier free ship to be the worst free ship ever. At the very least, it's better than the Plesh Brek.
This is an MMO, not a Star Trek episode simulator. That would make for a terrible game.
That's actually a pretty decent starship trait. Wonder if it means the second coming of the Aux2Bat builds?
I still run an a2b turret polaron drain build so this trait is made for me - slows, drains and is a beta type debuff...which in theory should stack with regular beta - add to that temp spec dot debuffs and you have a remarkable amount of spammable debuffs
Question is... will controlx or drain affect them, or if its aux scaled...
It is a pity theres no heavy cryobeam weapon...I'd love to have that for other ships instead of the bug zapper
according to patch notes its a known error, referring to hangar pet unlock.
a raider for non klingons, aodrians get their fridge bridge making it more cannon

Perhaps there is one in the winter store??, one can dream!
yeah this is a "raider" but did all raiders only have 6 weapon slots? 4 fore & 2 rear?
Yes.
All Raider classified ships are 4/2.
Not true, see exceptions like the D4x or Baltim which is 5/1. Raiders have 6 weapon slots, plus they qualify for the experimental weapon slot giving them one more weapon-based damage over science ships.
At first glance this ship looks pretty fine stats wise and all. Look forward to it. Also really liking its improved visuals.

I mean, it's good for Admiralty, but it seems like a Pilot Escort/Raptor/Warbird would be a better choice.
I'll happily use this ship for a little while, but it really isn't competitive with the best T6 raiders and escorts currently available in the game.
The devs either needed to give this T6 Breen Raider a fifth forward weapon slot or give it pilot maneuvers (in addition to the pilot bridge officer abilities they've already given it). Either one of those things would have made the new T6 Breen Raider "equivalent" to the best T6 raiders and escorts we already have.
As it is now, I don't think this ship will be very popular after the initial "novelty period" wears off.
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.
All those complaining about the only Experimental Weapon (Experimental Hyperexcited Ion Stream Projector) obtainable from the Reclaim in Dilithium Store, are forgetting that the Competitive Wargames Reputation at Tier 3 has the Experimental Flack Shot Artillery as an option to work to.

It's loaded with Torps in front and terrets in back. It's for killing giant snowflakes.

typically it's 8 slots for cruisers, 7 for escorts & 6 for sci ships. Not counting the "new" heavy weapon slot.
yeah this is a "raider" but did all raiders only have 6 weapon slots? 4 fore & 2 rear?
thats not suprising... all "free" ships would come with the standard heavy weapon.
Yes.
All Raider classified ships are 4/2.
