    Wow, I don't fly carriers so I don't know how the hanger pets will affect this, but if those are the actual stats, it doesn't look worth flying.

    Looks like the Vo'Quv with the Science and Engi console slots switched.

    It's not going to shake the world or anything, but it's okay. Gives Romulans a full carrier, at least.

    The set that's dropping in this mission might make it more interesting, though I haven't taken the time to sit down and look at it yet.

    I wont lie, I'm kinda disappointed with the boff layout and weapons, but I suppose it's a free ship and shouldn't expect it to be at the level of premium ships.

    Without a frigate I'm afraid this ship might not add up to much other than a freebie.

    Another couple of bits of the stats:

    Console required for 3-piece set, as well as buff to fleet ship status: 800 Lobi Crystals.

    Infinite possibilities have implications that could not be completely understood if you turned this entire universe into a giant supercomputer.p3OEBPD6HU3QI.jpg

    Because it has to have the PWE signature of "GIMME YO MONEY!" on it somewhere.

    My thoughts exactly, though my brother has (quite typically for him) decided that it's a sign that PWE is dying. :rolleyes:

    I am uncertain what the big deal is. You get a t5 carrier for free. You also get 2 of 3 set items for free. If you want the fleet version, and the 3rd set item, you buy the lobi ship. Many people are running around in lobi ships. How is this any different then that? How is it any different then getting a free odyssey and then them selling a 3-pack later?

    Seriously, why would we pay 800 Lobi for a whole ship we get for free, just to get 1 console? I could understand if it was more than that. Only 1 console though???? There has to be another way to get the console.

    The lobi version is a t5.5 fleet version rather then the stock version. It is a superior ship, just as every fleet ship is superior to all free and most c-store ships.

    The stats blog is now live here: http://sto.perfectworld.com/news/?p=1020331

    Also:
    Thanks for the feedback, Captains. I will be sure to pass it along as it is important to us. I did want to add a side-note that's not listed in the blog: Our upcoming FE replay event is introducing a new way to earn Lobi, and if my calculations are correct, you should be able to earn over 500 Lobi Crystals from the event if you play daily. More details on that will be posted tomorrow.

    That won't get you to 800, but it will help :)

    Cheers,

    Brandon =/\=

    I dunno, I don't have a huge problem with it, the issue comes from the fact that it's using the Lobi store, and I think that's kind of bunk. :(

    The ship is meh. Sorry. It's bad. Looks like the D'Kyr, with pets. And who seriously fly the D'Kyr for something else than RP ? I think the last one I met was months ago.
    Ouch.

    Agreed.
    Note, there is the word "greed" in agreed.

    2 Tactical consoles...:mad:

    A sexy looking ship...:D

    3 fore/3 aft weapons are you serious?!...:mad: It should be 4/3

    As slow as my Atrox, which is collecting dust on ESD. I want to give this carrier a chance, but so far it's not impressing me. My JHDC has set the bar so high for me. The BOFF layout is ok.

    I feel like this is a support carrier. like My Atrox, I've gotten so sued to being in the thick of it while piloting my JHDC, but this thing I'll be forced to stay out at the edge of the fight.

    I want to love this carrier, but so far it makes me sick...:(
    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.

    I'd say it's more like a Nebula...least the fleet equivalent version...I just with it was 4/3 like the newer carriers...probably my biggest gripe.

    I understand this sucker is built to be a tank carrier but still at the least would of loved weapon equality...

    Support Cruiser with dual hangar bays and subsystem targeting, minus 2 weapons and 2 turn. I don't see the complaint, this thing is gonna be a heck of a support ship. (I just wish it had the stats of the story mission version, with two Commanders :D )

    Fairly disappointed with this whole update as a whole.

    Mission was fun, but god awfully short, even with elite difficulty flipped on.

    Ship is meh unless you want to be a pure tank, which are pretty dumb in of themselves.

    Throw in the fact that superior version costs 800 lobi (Seriously?) and you've got a ship thats going to be a rare sight in a few weeks once everyone gets over it and realizes it isn't that great. Just like the Atrox before it. Everywhere when it was released, few and far not long after.


    The 2pc set is interesting though, especially for an Aux2Bat antiproton build. Warp core will also be useful for those who like to do Tour the universe I would imagine.

    I'm glad to have the ship for my romulan and federation sci captains

    Also the BOFF layout provides some room to do stuff if you want. There is room for dual-AtB with TT1, BFaW1 and APB1, if you're looking for it. Lots of console space for healer support too. Dunno if I would bother, I just want a carrier, but there are options here.

    The free version of the Carrier is not all that bad and its Lobi Store counterpart will be easily obtainable if what Brandon says about being able to earn up to 500 Lobi for the featured episode replay is true.

    Not to mention the fact that if this Carrier is proven to be a dud you will be able to get the Lobi store version of it via the Exchange for less than 80 million EC while the event is running.

    The only thing that truly bothers me about this Carrier is that it does not have a Frigate class of hanger support and will only have squishy fighters available to it.

    If Cryptic really wanted to make the Lobi version of the Carrier more appealing they should have offered it with a Frigate class hanger option.
