    While not a Lobi ship, I lobe the adapted destroyer, buy a lobi ship and sell it, then get the Adapted Destroyer. She has a cloak and Sensor Analysis.
    Thanks for the Advanced Light Cruiser, Allied Escort Bundles, Jem-Hadar Light Battlecruiser, and Mek'leth

    There aren't many T6 lobi ships yet... Does this matter to you? The Monbosh looks so badass and is a good old fashioned tactical cruiser. Other ships will outperform it now though. The Astika is pretty deadly but very slow, the Manasa is extremely wicked and you could probably get one from selling a lobi ship. The Ateleth is meh at best. Probably should sell a lobi ship on the exchange and then buy a lockbox ship.

    In my opinion, you already have the best T6 Lobi, the Hazari Destroyer.

    That's the one ship off the Lobi store that I really want. Everything else.. meh...

    Ok if you have enough lobo to buy but have to ask I would say there is nothing you need. I am sitting on 1100+ lobi waitning on a ship that I will actually fly. I have all of lockbox and lobi ships. Don't have them all. If you want my honest opinion and the lobi is burning a hole in your pocket get the Astika. The trait makes it worth it.

    I don't have the Astika, so I haven't used the Supremacy Trait, but I'm curious..

    Is the trait worth anything if you already have a Leech console? It seems like a useful trait, but also seems like there are items that render it less then useful. The Trait is basically a Plasmonic Leech that only works during FAW/SV right?

    Temporal Destroyer

    It may not be T6, but set it up right and it will kick all kinds of TRIBBLE - assuming that the Rommie version works the same as the Fed Mobius, that is.

    It's a great ship, and especially turny if you get the temporal 3-set. My only complaint is with the console, which after all this time is still worse than useless. Commander tac and lt. commander sic is a good combination if you like GW+cannon spread as I do.

    Still, there's also a lot to be said for the Korath too, not least of which the looks department.

    Haven't used it myself but it stacks with Plasmonic leech so you can keep all your power levels over 100. That's pretty sweet!

    Just picked up the Astika last night and I must say, it is a deadly ship. I really like both the weap and boff layout.
    Well excuse me for having enormous flaws that I don't work on.

    I have one boxed up, can't decide which toon to give it to . . . My main already has the Hazari and manasa.

    I find that Lobi is too valuable to spend on ships.
    Have you tried the new forum on your phone?

    If Lobi is limited, I would pick up the Vaadwaur Astika followed by the Hazari. If for no other reason than they both have some nifty ship traits. I haven't tried the Xindi T6 ship, but that would be number three until I know how it feels.
