    Instead of restricting the cannons to only the Vesta, can we simply limit one-per-ship, with the vesta excluded from that restriction? This way I can equip one on anything (like I do with the quad cannons), while still being able to use three of them on the vesta if I choose.

    Well that sucks. If you want to increase the cooldown on Danube tractor beams why aren't you also nerfing the ability of Siphon Drones to stack their power-sucking powers? :/

    I'll be honest I know of 3 or more ways that siphon pods can be taken down which most of them using any aoe power while reversing engines kills siphon pods in their tracks :) Its just people didn't think on that level where as you could have even used aoe torpedoes with no power at all and they woulda died instantly but no one thinks on that level :)

    Although the point being missed is that those power siphons don't do damage where as tractor beams do damage straight to the hull.

    Well... they are. Changes should already be on tribble afaik.

    oh plz... even if you specialize your build to kill siphons, you'll be doing nothing but killing siphons the whole match! They spawn about every 10 seconds.

    We've made a few updates to the blog:Also, the cooldown between uses of Tractor Beam on Danube Carrier Pets will be drastically increased.

    NOTE: The stats in the blog and above are still subject to change as focus testing continues

    Cheers,

    Brandon =/\=


    Thank you.

    Now I can use my Danubes without feeling guilty. :D

    If all fails, maybe you can make their tractor beams like the ones from the cloaking mines, where they slow you down instead of locking you down completely.

    I just hate the fact that the ship was shrunken down in size, but in the books it was big and still fast (sigh), Oh well...:(

    If you park it next to a sovy (which is the size the vesta should have too) you?ll see its not shrunken much :)

    Hey there STO...

    I was wondering how to get that awesome slipstream engines that I notice some of the players got...

    BTW, I wish I could see some more familiar characters around. Fancy Seven of nine in-game :)

    Once you reach Vice Admiral and spend all your skill points, it will be added to your toolbar.

    "Critics who say that the optimistic utopia Star Trek depicted is now outmoded forget the cultural context that gave birth to it: Star Trek was not a manifestation of optimism when optimism was easy. Star Trek declared a hope for a future that nobody stuck in the present could believe in. For all our struggles today, we haven’t outgrown the need for stories like Star Trek. We need tales of optimism, of heroes, of courage and goodness now as much as we’ve ever needed them."
