edited October 2013 in Star Trek Online General Discussion
When we finally get through the gate way and into the new areas. What ship will you take on your first adventure.

Here is mine: I based mine what I know I should have by then. These being my top choices I plan on using.

Fed Eng - Sovereign or Ambassador

Fed Tac - Defiant or Prometheus

KDF Eng - Negh'Var, Vor'cha or K't'inga

Romulan Tac - Ha'feh or D'deridex

USS Casinghead NCC 92047 launched 2350
Fleet Admiral Stowe - Dominion War Vet.

    Well I don't know why you would change your ships just for a season.

    I'm sticking to my Avenger.

    I like to rotate my ships around. So one isn't just sitting idle. When I did the Romulan Rep on my Fed Eng. I did 1 ship per tier. So I had fun with all of them.

    Fed Sci - Vesta/Orb Weaver/Avenger... maybe a new lockbox ship if it suits.

    Rom Tac - Monbosh/Tal Shiar Cruiser/Fleet Ar'Kif (as and when)

    Going to try to completely shelve my Scimitar, since it's such a stupidly powerful ship that it'll take any challenge/fun out of new content.

    My fleet Defiant, of course.

    Perhaps my Armitage every now and then if I'm in the mood.

    Depends. If its worth doing over and over, 10 characters each with their own distinctive ship covering all kinds. If its so Grindus Maximus that doing it 10 times over would be suicide-inducing, just once with my Eng/Odyssey.

    In honor of the new season, I plan on.... using the exact same ship.

    Maybe I'll change skin color, to blend in.

    Anybody have an idea when season 8 will start, by the way?

    This is what my max level characters are using at the moment, I will most likely stick with these ships for the new content.
    Fed Tac - Ferengi Marauder **
    Fed Eng - Fleet Excelsior *
    Fed Sci 1 - Fleet Intrepid *
    Fed Sci 2 - Fleet Rhode Island
    Fed Sci 3 - Vesta
    KDF Tac - B'rel *
    KDF Eng - Fleet Corsair *
    KDF Sci - B'rel
    Rom Tac - Fleet Mogai **

    Normally with new content I plan to do it with all my max level characters but that rarely happens. I will most likely play and enjoy the missions with a couple of characters and then rush through with the rest either during the initial run or when they do a featured episode replay.

    Of the characters above the ones with two stars are my main priority, one star toons are ones I will try and get through all the missions and well into the new reputation system while the ones with no stars are a low priority and may not get used during the initial release of the new season but possibly at a later date when they do the featured episode reruns.
    ***Sausages for All***
    Federation - Mirel II, Tala Lyleh sh'Ezlem, Vro'kul, Jahrel, Giweatu, Jhrol th'Ezlem, Katariina Rebane, Eleftheria Palaiologou, Surel, Saimon, TheEfficientSaurian
    KDF -Mirel I, Anirez Norai, Talash
    Romulans - T'Lara, Makath 'The Needle' Ayailat, Mirel III

    I'm guessing at Christmas or early December. So far no announcement has been made yet. However they are really bringing out the updates showing stuff. So it won't be long.

    I'm going to use the latest KDF ship released, the Bortasqu.

    Just kidding, why would anyone fly that, Monbosh for me.

    my two most faithful ships. My Vesta and JHDC (and maybe the Voth carrier if it's "good enough").
    One day Cryptic will be free from their Perfect World overlord. Until that day comes, they will continue to pamper the whales of this game, and ignore everyone that isn't a whale.

    Probably just keep using my Fleet Ambassador (because the Fleet Galaxy blows unfortunately), or I might switch it up and go with my Nova retrofit.

    I'll probably take my Ambassador through the new content first, in the spirit of exploration.

    Either that or I'll just blast everything with the Fleet Vor'cha!

    I've got many characters, and they all use different ships. I'll be using the heck out of my new Fleet Avenger. Also my Fleet Sovereign, Fleet Akira, Vesta, Recluse, Mirror Vo'quv... those are the only characters I actually care about. I think.

    Either my JHAS, or maybe my fleet Defiant if I need the cloak.
    I ask nothing but that you remember me.

    Scimitar, Jemmy dread and Recluse..... and if i can muster the will, my Engineers Imperial-Regent will also join....


    I'd pick a vesta too, but i have no dedicated vesta captain yet....

    I'm taking my Scimitar in..... assuming its wings fit through the gate.

    Assuming I dust off my other toons, my KDF will take with the Bort. or Negh'var.... and my Fed Tac has an Oddy.... still leveling my Fed Eng..... she's presently only a CDR so I'm not sure what she'll be driving later on when she's ready for the delta quadrant... she's presently in an Akira escort..... thinking about maybe having her in the fed BC by then though.

    Since there isn't a good reason to use anything but a scimitar, fairly obvious as to what I'll be using.
    pvp = small package
