I responded to this thread:

In that thread Rey suggested a whole new thread for the question of
What ship did you Toil and Save for and then once you got it were not impressed and its now in Drydock?
For me its the Jem'Hadar Dreadnaught Carrier

Odan Brota (Science Officer): Captain of a 28k DPS Scryer Intel Science Vessel, U.S.S. Kepler
Patiently waiting for a Romulan Science Vessel
I spend like 80$ on keys to get the JHEC (which is a decent ship)
But the turnrate is just awful for a small ship.
The Boff layout is decent, and the console you get is very nice for a Tac Captain.
I dunno tho, just haven't enjoyed it that much. Probably because I opened it with my Sci captain
Dumb thing to do I guess. (I was still new to STO at that point)
But I essentially wasted that ship
If I could go back, I'd give it to my Tac Captain, then maybe it would be a little more appealing. And not collect dust in Dry Dock.
Well Im not a fed primarily but I can still answer this question.
Across 6 six toons:
JHAS - wasted it on a fed I never play
Jem Carrier, Jem Escort Carrier, Orb Weaver, Recluse, Adapted battle cruiser, Adapted cruiser, D'Kora, Temporal Destroyer, & Temporal Sci ship
I like my Breen Cruiser for my sci, Galor for 1 of my Tac, JHAS for my other tac, and Fleet Torkaht ( ? ) for my eng
lol... ah If only I had all those keys back.
Your Javelin deals 125417 (89066) Disruptor Damage(Critical) to Tholian Recluse. > lol
Armitage: Math says I kick butt in it, but it just doesn't 'fit like a glove' the way my old Patrol Escort did.
Kar'fi: I keep trying, tinkering, wanting to make this thing work because I know how powerful it can be, but every layout I come up with, I end up back at "and my Vo'quv could probably do it better."
Bought it expecting a lot, wasn't much of an upgrade to the AC then, still isn't now.
Tried it out on my Mobius, was super impressed by it but I only bust it out for no win scenario.
2 consoles are a pain to slot when you have all lobi consoles and the leech. And the Manheim device is garbage....should be updated to a warp shadow affect
My PvE/PvP hybrid skill tree
I was looking for an upgrade that was "better" than what I could get for free by leveling AND special hull skin. I used it for about a week. That's it
Would sell if i could.
Second would be the Kumari pack. I was a big escort fan up until then and i bought it.
Sad part is that i evolved into using sci vessels and cruisers more after that.
On the other end of the spectrum, the best i've got was the tal shiar adapted battlecruiser.
I loved it so much, that i bought one more for another character.
I don't like wasting things that have this much customizability.

1. My Fed Engineer. I picked up the Galaxy-X for him and I think I used it for a week and have never touched it since. I'ts been years. I also picked up the Oddy pack for him, used it for a month or two, but I eventually went back to my Fleet Assault Cruiser.
I dunno. I just feel like that ship fits the best. I love it. It feels.. comfortable.
2. I bought the Bellerophon to get the skin for my Fed Science.. and I used it and *loved* it.. but then the Vesta came out, and being the Destiny and Ezri Dax fan that I am I bought it. I still haven't quite gotten used to the Vesta yet. I can't seem to get it set up in a way that it really meshes with me. I've refused to give up though.
I think the best choice I've ever made for a character is the Fleet D'deridex for my Romulan. I bought that for him and have never looked back. I *love* it.
I also have the Steamrunner that I've never used, but I got great use out of the T1 version.
My main ship I leave dry-docked is the Bortasqu' 3 pack ships. I have tried so many different builds trying to make them awesome and it just can't be done. It's advertised as "The most powerful ship in the Klingon Fleet" which I suppose CAN be true against a stationary target with 4 DHC and what not... but it's not realistically going to happen. Anytime I give this class another shot I find myself back in my Fleet Tor'kaht within 2 missions or so. The Auto-cannon is advertised to do "Devastating damage" which it really does not, it just acts like another nonspecial white quality DHC damage wise so disappointing when compared to the Vesta's phaser lance, or any of the 1000 day destroyer lotuses. It's supposed to be this big badass cruiser but every time I try to tank in it, I find myself missing my Tor'kaht or Mirror Vo'Quv.
Just about every ship I got before lock boxes started.
Why? Each new lock box ship has to add that extra umph in order to be enough of a draw to get one to spend so much money on them.
So once you get them, how can those plain Jane ships compete?
It's not a coincidence that some of the best go to ships in the game are now lock box ships.
(The Jem Hadar Attack ship - best escort, the Wells - best science ship, the Tholian Recluse - best healer)
With but a few exceptions, (like the Schimitar, or the Avenger) most zen store bought ships need a fleet version to be on par with these lock box ships.
If you were to tie me down for a specific answer tho, I'd have to say I'm still kinda busted up about the galaxy class and all her variants. :mad:
USS Casinghead NCC 92047 launched 2350
Fleet Admiral Stowe - Dominion War Vet.
Wait...when did they add an adapted cruiser? Stats or pics for it? As far as I new they only had an Adapted Battle Cruise and an Adapted Destroyer.

For me, virtually every c store ship fed side. My main (sci) is flying the regent. Second main (Tac) JHDC one eng alt flying a mirror time ship one alt testing the sci oddy in the Borg invasions vs the regent. I just cannot get use to escorts and the atrox Does not have the punch and maneuverability I want. If the atrox had either lcdr or CD-r Tac, or dual lt Tac slots it would be awesome
Most of my characters tend to bounce around between ships and usually come back to various ships I've collected at some point.
Edit: Oh!, and the Risian corvette. Shame I never got around to the crazy broad-side evader build I had in mind for them.
Temporal mirror was opened for its console to put on wells- mothballed, time ships failed my intended purpose, GFG cheese wedge I never fly (full time set)
Ive bought prolly 50%+ of all the c-store ships for consoles including the WRONG Excelsior, atrox = 100% fail, and a plethora of small useless (rhode island) ships.. The TOS connie was at least pretty but the retro fit weapons ended p sucking..

I bought the 3-packs and I'm just using one version without the obsolete and aweful consoles that came with them. At least the Vesta still had some costume parts I was able to use on the Aventine.
other than that:
- Marauder Patrol cruiser (needs a fleet version)
- Regent (should have directly bought the Fleet Assault Cruiser)
- Oberth, NX, Gladius, Stalker
More than those ships above, I regret some Lobi purchases. I bought 3 sets (Ferengi, Elachi, Temporal) with a total of 9 parts for 1.800 Lobi total and the only things I'm still using are the 3 consoles. I bought the keys with EC, but to think Cryptic made ~$360 from that (someone lese dished out real $$ after all) is just sad...
