I was surprised that my Fed Klink didn't come supplied with a sharp razor :confused:

Do any NPCs sell them?

Not picked up any as loot either, despite the number of 'Swordmasters' that have fallen to him in combat.

    Commander and Captain level ones are sold in DS9 at the weapon shop, speak to the Klingon on the right.

    Mk II - IV can be gotten on the exchange for a small-to-medium penny.

    After lvl 6, you can make your own KDF.

    Make one, go buy a bat'leth, and mail it to your Fed toon.

    Yep, best way to get the Mk II, Mk VI and Mk X.

    Why would you be surprised by that? Back during WWII there were plenty of American soldiers who were of German ancestry or even German-born fighting for the United States. Pretty sure none of them came pre-equipped with their own Luger pistols. ;)

    Obviously it depends on what your character's background story is. Maybe your guy came directly from Klingon controlled space or has been a Federation citizen for several generations. Either way as has been stated there are ways to get a Bat'leth in the game regardless.

    I'm pretty sure Bat'leths are cheaper for KDF no matter what.

    The ones they have for sale on DS9 are higher priced IIRC.

    I used the ones from DS9 until I hit Admiral, then bought a Mk-X from the exchange for under 10k I think (which is not a big deal at Admiral). It's very effective in PVE combat, even as a science captain with no martial arts skills. It does more damage than most rifles and bypasses shields.

    Compared to an equal Mk phaser, Bat'leth do a lot of damage.

    How come Federation don't have their own version of a melee weapon?

    Where's that switchblade sword Sulu has in the new movie?


    EDIT: And how come we can't unsheathe our Bat'leth at random, like how people randomly run through Starbase with their phasers out. I would love to walk around waving a bat'leth like some people wave their assault rifles.

    Because it counts as melee and you look unarmed as long as you don't use combat animations. => Use bat'leth cross.

    You can easiely get them on the exchange though for pretty good prices considering..(mk II, IV, VI, VIII and X).
