    The console is a tactical console, so you won't be sacrificing Science, you'll be gaining science and sacrificing weapons. Also, the news article says nothing about a torpedo, so it's possible it's in a different, future episode.

    I agree with the others, remember how the Samsar had both its console (Part of the Command set) and the Kobali Warp/Singularity core. (Part of the Dust to Dust Anniversary FE set) I have not seem a video review yet from someone who bought the ship with lobi, but as they did it before, it makes sense they would do it again. Hopefully, someone will put a review video up today to confirm one way or the other.

    Not needing a video to confirm...

    The project description in the Event tab - IIRC as I can't log in and check - spells out in "bold letters" that this ship brings the Krenim Chroniton Torp launcher...

    Though now I begin to debate. Pathfinder running the Thoron array to contribute to ISO, the Krenim regular array, Gravimetric fore, regular crafted Polaron or KCB, Krenim Omni & Neutronic (for iso) aft leaves me little to no space to slot the Krenim Chroniton, and if I go all torp-boat on that front-end, it blows a few investments on this guy like Leech...

    hmmm... choices choices. Or I just go 3-piece, as the 4th doesn't scream "OP" to me...

    Cool! It should be in the reclaim tab after I get the ship. Another torpedo for my torpedo boat...

    Well you can drop the Gravimetric, I mean it's not really part of a set in that scenario, it is an amazing torpedo but... depending on the damage and special effects the Chroniton might have it might be a decent replacement. Also. Here's hoping for Chroniton that is not complete garbage.
  • saber1973asaber1973a Member Posts: 1,225 Arc User
    Chronometric Torpedo? - It's low kinetic damage by itself (i think, it's not even 3000), so it needs the set to get more from it's other effects... (got the project done on Tribble).

    Leech doesn't need many thing hitting to be useful. it just charges a little slower.​​

    Ah, well now I feel silly. I didn't hover over the pack description on the event project, but instead right clicked on the pack in the event store reclaim tab. For whatever reason that version of the description does not mention the torpedo. (Even though the Samsar's does mention its bonus item) Oh well, at least I'll know next time to check both. Either way, mystery solved. o:) Thanks for the info.

    I do love how it's saying that it has a chance to pass completely through an enemy's shields...although it would have to do MASSIVE kinetic damage to actually be fun ;-)

    From what I have seen, it looks like variant on the Temporal Disruption Device.

    The TDD is just a TCD with a proc: no shield penetration whatsoever, but deadly with good timing.

    Ok, i was wrong - it got 3977.6 kinetic damage on Mk XII by itself (still low for torpedo i think),
    ... and 25% Chance (50% with full 4-piece set) to "signifcantly reduce Flight Speed and Turn Rate ...", and "Ignore 100% of target shields"
    - the last one is somewhat unclear - it's 25% Chance to ignore shields on hit for its (torpedo) damage, or after hit you ignore target shields? (Or the torpedo completly ignores target shields? - if so, then its great weapon)...

    Edit:
    No - it's not completly ignoring target shields - it will propably be at 25% / 50% Chance - still nice

    With how useless shields are already I'm not sure it has much practical use.

    Sure...if you're the Borg...but we don't play the Borg and their super drains...we actually play against things that die before their shields are down.

    With all the BFAW spam torps can't even reach the target in time much less worry about shields... i know because I play torpedo boats.
  • sheldonlcoopersheldonlcooper Member Posts: 4,042 Arc User
    well my unbridled enthusiasm for the new episode rewards has become bridled in the last 2 days. So the torpedo is only 25 or 50% shield bypass? And the console is a tactical console not universal. Sadly I'm going to have to pass on both. May play around with the 2 beams.

  • samt1996samt1996 Member Posts: 2,856 Arc User
    Wait it's a tactical console!? Ew... that'll hurt my build plans.
  • sheldonlcoopersheldonlcooper Member Posts: 4,042 Arc User
    it's basically a copy of the undine fluidic console where if you use phaser or disruptor and photons and radiation it's almost as good as spire console. I happen to use polarons and a torpedo so this console may be almost usable. I'll give it a try at lvl12 to see how hard the torpedo hits. But I'm not expecting much.

    Has anyone else noticed the episodes' continued polaron-based weapons rewards? Are they trying to tell us something...

    I think you read that wrong. The Krenim Chroniton Torpedo has a 25% chance (50% with the set bonus) to ignore 100% of your target's shields. It's basically a super-charged Transphasic Torpedo with a Chroniton Torpedo proc mixed in.

  • kayajaykayajay Member Posts: 1,990 Arc User
    The Krenim torpedo upgraded has a REALLY high rating...more so than my upgraded regular Chroniton. I haven't actually tested it in battle yet, but I'm looking forward to! Does it release a single High Yield or a stream though?
  • medalionemissarymedalionemissary Member Posts: 612 Arc User
    I combined the Krenim Chroniton torp from the Anniversary ship with the first award from the Time and Tide playthrough, which were a pair of Chronometric Polaron Dual Heavy Cannons... I already got the 2 piece bonus now... and it's mainly an auxilary power boost, nothing too revolutionary.

    I believe the 3-piece set bonus gives you a clicky power and then the 4-piece enhances the Krenim Chroniton Torpedo. I don't know if replacing 3 items on my build in order to get the 4-piece bonus would be worth it for the 25% extra proc chance, but we'll see.
