I'm TWICE the pirate you are! I got TWO eye-patches!
We warp in, blow everything up and take whats left behind.
Also get a bunch of nausicans because of the "pirate" boff trait.
I believe that this group would look like a pirate band to you, not that it was my specific intention; but I planned them as a rogue team.
Please... Tell me more about this DOFF...
Things I want in STO:
1) More character customization options such as more clothing options, letting the toon complexion affect the entire body, not just the head. Also a true RGB color picker applied to all costume and appearance options, which would allow for true appearance customization and homogenous colors instead of "this same exact color looks vastly different on two different pieces."
2) Bridge customization, not bridge packs. Let us pick a general layout and adjust the color palette, console appearance, and chair types, as well as more ready room layout options.
3) Customizable ground weapons, i.e. The aesthetic look of phaser dual pistols but they shoot antiproton bolts. For obvious reasons this would only apply to standard ground weapons.
4) For the love of Q please revamp Plasma Ground Weapons. They look like demented Supersoakers right now.
5) True Vanity Impulse and Deflector effects similar to Vanity Shields.
6) A greater payout for hitting T6 Reputations. Currently it takes more time and resources to get from T5 to T6 than it does to get from nothing to T5. Make that grind really pay out at the end.
7) Mirrorverse Refugee event similar to AoY/Delta/Gamma, complete with new Mirrorverse recruits for all factions.
8) Independent Faction, because yo ho yo ho a pirate's life for me!
You get him from the episode "time in a bottle" in the middle of the iconian arc. Great for places like the dyson bz or kobali prime.
Wonder what development team took the RPG out of MMORPG?
You are playing a game with the wrong IP.
Space pirates do not have any significant presence in Star Trek. They only appear in a few episodes that are basically fillers.
Me, most of my toons are Privateers in the service of the empire.
Orions engage in a fair amount of piracy.
You are right. IF they did add space pirates as a playable faction, you'd probably get 5-6 quests then just start on the Federation quest arc LOL
BUT what if I wanted to be an Engineer and design ships? Or a doctor on Earth Space dock? They're part of Star Trek, right? I can't. I am made a starship captain 5 minutes after graduating Starfleet academy LOL
Well that's because you're special.
Just like every other Fed player.
...wait.

I also have a dual pistol wielder sporting the Vaudwaur Jacket, but in place of the eye patch I'm using the facemask part of that sets helmet. Makes him look look Star-Lord. In fact if you ever spot him click on Inspect. His bio states: "I am Star-Lord!" The character is pretty fun and flies a fully upgraded APU Cruiser that has completed its starship mastery too.
