Why would I ever want to fly a shuttle?

    I fly a Heavy Cruiser and due to the slow Turn Rate I like to switch to one of my shuttles for grinding anomalies. Somehow it feels like all that Voyager Episodes where they used the shuttle to investigate some space anomalie and end up crashing on some planet ;)

    The reason I use shuttles is because in my biography, I am a great shuttle pilot, and actually shuttled in a war. So, for me, it's more role playing.

    I fly the Captain's Yacht around from time to time. It's just a means of chilling out for me. I use it when I am anomaly farming and when I play The Vault.

    The Vault also gives you Scorpion Fighters as a reward, which when in a regular ship (not a shuttle or fighter) allows you to launch 3 Scorpion fighters to assist in combat. you can launch the fighters 50 times per Vault Reward. (it's unique so you have to completely use or sell the first device before you can pick up the next if you do the Vault again.) you can have a max of 6 fighters out at once.

    I have recently done this, and I have the Scorpion fighters in my device slot, but I can't figure out how to actually launch them, could you inform me please? Thanks =)

    You just click the button like any other toolbar ability.

    This thread is dead, by the way. :)

    "Critics who say that the optimistic utopia Star Trek depicted is now outmoded forget the cultural context that gave birth to it: Star Trek was not a manifestation of optimism when optimism was easy. Star Trek declared a hope for a future that nobody stuck in the present could believe in. For all our struggles today, we haven’t outgrown the need for stories like Star Trek. We need tales of optimism, of heroes, of courage and goodness now as much as we’ve ever needed them."

    Thing is, I don't see any new button once equipped. And I am aware this thread is dead (Was hoping for a comment from someone... Like yourself) but I can't post a new one because the damn site says I haven't been registered long enough

    I suspect this is a Kobali infiltrator. Thee signs are all there. Dead thread. Brought back to life for a different purpose.

    Just adding the scorpions to your ship devices doesnt always add the button to your toolbars. click on the bar settings and find the scorpions in the list and drag them to the bar.

    How? I tried dragging it from device to an open slot, but that didn't work
