Kdf neg'var refit coming?

chalpenchalpen Member Posts: 2,207 Arc User
I have been hearing about a cstore neg'var coming for two years almost.
Is it coming for LoR?
Should I start posting again after all this time?

    Not at release.

    KDF are getting two new low level(T1 and T2) c-store Raiders/Birds of Prey come the 21st though.

    I don't think it is coming with the launch of LoR.
    I remain empathetic to the concerns of my community, but do me a favor and lay off the god damn name calling and petty remarks. It will get you nowhere.
    I must admit, respect points to Trendy for laying down the law like that.

    I hope not, last thing the KDF needs is another Battlecruiser...KDF need some more Escort/Destroyer and Science options.

    I'd really rather have a C-Store Vor'cha retrofit, so I can get Fleet Tor'kahts for my other characters at a discount.

    Geko commented on his two recent podcast interviews that there was a Negh'var variant coming soon. That's all we know.

    We don't know if it could be the Best of Both Worlds / VoD'leh version, or the Regent Worf Super Negh'var, or something new. Or what kind of BOFF slots (most likely a more Tactically focused Negh'var).

    I can't quite remembr his exact words, but I think he said something about a version with additional guns on the underside.
    So that would be the DS9 4th season version.
    The Regent version is probably off because it's essentially the same ship only oversized to ridicilous proportions.
    Maybe we'll get to see that one as an NPC super-battleship.

    Could do a whole mirror universe lockbox with Regent Worf's Negh'var.

    Mirror Fed Dread for Feds, Worf's Negh'var for KDF, and Scimitar for RR. Would work fine...each could have a strong beam weapon special.

    I had envisioned a 3 pack.
    Tac (5 tac consoles) with auto canon con
    Sci (1 less rear weapon but had a hanger) with torp transporters
    Eng (more powa) with some sorta consoles


    But that would require a lot of work and not likely

    Sounds interesting.
    It's certainly a good question what those things on the underside are, but given their look compared to disruptor bolts and beams I'd say those are really mean torpedoes.

    For comparison, you can see a couple of green Photon Torpedoes fired here:

    Looks kinda the same IMO.
    So maybe a dual torper instead of the autocannon...which would be kinda redundant anyway given we already have one on the Borty.:)

    Regarding the Engy console, maybe a boost to all power systems via a secondary impulse generators console...?

    I'll echo the opinion that we really don't need more battlecruisers at this time. We have 8-9 battlecruiser models (some with several variants) to pick from in Tier 5, but only 4 raptors (again, some with variants) and three destroyers. We could use 3-4 more destroyers/raptors, and some viable science ships.

    I wouldn't mind a better Negh'var in STO, there are certainly visual variants / kit bashin options possible and those 2 Cannons certainly would be a nice dps addition.

    i don't see how the KDF needs more escorts... they only have like a hundred Birds of Prey and Raiders already.

    Sci Ships? ...sorry i don't see those sell in big enough numbers, not on KDF side.

    Regent Worfs ship really should have been a Bortas'qu ...no need to explain why that didn't happen ;P

    Some non-BoP/non-Klingon Raiders(escorts) might be interesting. I mean, KDF consists of Nausicaan, Gorn, Orion, Ferasan, and others, yet the only Raiders available to us are BoPs. Not that I dislike BoPs, I actually like them a lot, but I've been flying BoPs forever, and it'd be nice to have a change of aesthetic without having to respec, rearm, rebuild, or drastically change my playstyle.
