Buff the JHAS!

Jem ships should have Space Shroud cloaks.
From working with the Cardassians, they should have access to all sorts of Spiral Wave Energy Weapons.
From working with the Breen, they should have access to a [Pol] device that adds the Polaron proc to all Energy Weapons.
Because we normally saw them as groups, they should have a pair of Jem Fighters that work like Wing Cannons.
What other buffs do you feel the JHAS needs?

Beyond that...add more Jem BOFFs where the BOFFs themselves are Universal, able to train Tac/Eng/Sci abilities on the same BOFF. Allow them only to work in Jem boats.

That's the spirit!
Though, some of this stuff might require first having the JHAS and then dropping out 800 Lobi for an upgrade, eh?
Well ya I guess tech doffs are op on any ship... seriously though anyone that buys either of those over a galor is an even bigger sucker.
it is a crazy good ship.

I'm not a fan of a2b only escorts tbh.
Whoooooooooooossse Wiiiiiiittttth meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee booooooooooooooooooys! (It helps if you imagine me like this
Think about how much you might have wanted a Bug 6 months ago? 12 months ago? 18 months ago? 24 months ago? Picture the next 6 months...12 months...etc, etc, etc. If they want to keep including it in this promo and expect folks to buy it...they're going to need to buff it down the road or just move it to the Lobi store and put a new ship in for the promo.
But the shroud should actually be a permanent shroud with a flat damage boost like +50%.
No decloaking mechanism, and shields always up.
Good call on this burning issue Virus, the JHAS is sadly underpowered and weak in today's fantastic metagame!
I agree I fly a hunter and its a really good ship. Almost too good lol, have fought agin some in this thread Great Fights!

When you post, accurate, things like this it makes your posts on how A2B isn't a problem very hard to believe.
Since that's exactly what makes the Hirogen Hunter better.
fixed.
if you dont like things to overpowered on principle i understand.
oh its not just that. this is the best example of an escort/destroyer that doesnt have a big drawback wile also being able to run an AtB build. all this does is make me think that all other doffs need buffing even more
as of this moment, this is what you can do with the hunter
EPtE, AtB and AtD build with 4 turn + all res gives you more turn and movement speed with full up time give the ship top tier movement AND for me 48% hull res
with only 1 AtB, up time is spotty, but just dumping CRF and BO down range tends to do jack squat these days all by it self. on escorts im a convert to single AtB+AtD because even on non 1 trick pony vap builds up time is a distance second to lineing up as much spike as you can.
1 AtB giving your EPt skills 100% reliable uptime as apposed to damage control less then perfect uptime, the single built in COM tac is all you need in most cases running on pretty decent up time. only vapers will miss the second LTC level tac power, but vapers are also using cloakers
post team system cooldown change is what really pushed me into getting one. not only does it have the above advantages over the bug, but i can run ET1/3, and ST1/2 wile still having room for the 2 EPt skills and HE, TSS. it is immune to debuffs, immune to every single thing a sci ship can hit it with, and with all those heals is an auxiliary team healboat as well. its u turn console gives like +100 defense wile it does its animation, if you hear a cloaking device hit it and your attacker has to deal with you moving in an extreamly strange way and a huge debuff to his accuracy. plus the ~50% hull armor, and top tier movement, and if your ~15k away from anyone you might as well be cloaked.
lol bug, and all the other escorts that cant run AtB+AtD builds. compare this 17 turn escort to the defiant and it gets absolutely sad. this is the best example of power creep in the game today. well, next to warbirds i guess
I find it easy to run circles around a2b escorts with a bug using doffed a2d, I would say it may be a better escort against most ships, but not against the bug. I like to be built for 1v1 in kerrat since it happens a lot so bug is best for that I think.
Yeah but A2B or no the Hunter is one ugly garbage can of a ship.
No offense to people who like their Hunters! The buggy is just so pretty in pink.
Make it 12 and you have yourself a deal.

its got everything to do with doffs really. this hunter is no better then the defiant without them, just different. doffs need to be buffed so ships arent unfairly left behind.
this is a satire thread that i ruined by dropping truth bombs lol
There's an idea. Jemmies need hot tubs. Now!
And on the topic of bugships: It will stay the same price it has always been and that's 500 million or above and anything else doesn't matter to me. I'm sure enogh players speculate on that and keep the price for the ship artificially inflated. So buffing the bug wouldn't make any sense from cryptics perspective of perceived sales of the new doff pack, because enoguh people will open packs/buy the ship, just to resell it later anyways. It's basically its own high value currency right now ... like gold/latinum bars.
