Fleet Excelsior

I tried to purchase a Fleet Excelsior today but it wants to charge me 5 Fleet Modules. I already own the Excelsior so it should cost 1.

    Yeah I have the same problem too. I purchased the Advanced Heavy Cruiser Retrofit back before the Free to play changes. Anyways, according to the release notes it says if you already have purchased an Excelsior that if you "upgrade" to the Fleet version that it should only cost *edit* 20,000 FC and 1 Fleet Ship Module.

    Either this is a bug, or the release notes do not explain it properly.

    I'm having the same issue - Purchased the ship before Free to play and now can't pick up the Fleet version.

    I did try it on Tribble and it does let me purchase it for 1 fleet ship module. Not sure what happened to Holodeck

    I posted this in the C-store forum as I had the same issue. If you already have an existing Excelsior Retrofit, bought from the C-store:

    1) Discharge it first (after removing all its gear)

    2) Claim the Excelsior Retrofit in the C-store

    3) Buy the Fleet Excelsior with one Fleet Module


    It worked for me and the Fleet Excelsior is as beautiful as ever, especially with the Fleet skin! ;)

    Queetz - THANKS!

    I didn't check the C-Store forums (should have checked there too Oops :o ) so I didn't see this earlier. Everything worked and I know have my new beautiful ship!:D

    It's even totally wrong in the ship browser, in game.

    A Fleet Excelsior should be only 4 Fleet Modules as been announced, while it is in game set as 5 Fleet Modules.

    I think its 5fleet modules because it keeps it's innate ability - the transwarp to any sector

    console ability ships are 4mods
    innate ability ships are 5mods

    A friend of mine has a regular excelsior but the fleet version is still 5 fleet modules, he has tried discharging it and claiming it again but the fleet excelsior is still 5 fleet modules.

    The release notes said that if you have an excelsior it should only cost 1 and he has an excelsior (not the retrofit, but that is beside the point.)

    So were the notes incorrect or is this a bug?

    Actually, that is the point... The discount for the Fleet Excelsior only applies if you already own the T5 version of the Excelsior. The T3 version of the Excelsior doesn't count...

    You're correct, checked it in the patch notes.

    Then why did they say AN Excelsior not the Excelsior Retrofit in the release notes?

    Because only when you buy a T5 ship you get the discount. Why should it be different with the Excelsior?
