Patrol Escorts passed over again. T6 version in the works maybe?

Couldn't help but notice that this ship class, even the Fleet T5 Upgrade was left out on the Heavy Weapon slot. Is this because maybe we are finally going to be getting a new Tier 6 and Tier 6 Fleet versions instead? It has been a long time since we got a new Patrol Escort and it is a ship worthy of/for the T6 treatment.

    it has 8 weapons already so it doesn't get one... did anyone actually read where they explained whar gets a heavy weapon slot.

    if I stop posting it doesn't make you right it. just means I don't have enough rum to continue interacting with you.

    It basically got screwed over because it already has an 8th weapon slot, and so didn't make the pass. I wouldn't assume yet that this means they have already started working on a Tier 6 Patrol Escort. I'd just assume that they simply went through all the ships and saw which qualified the criteria, and this one did not.

    Obviously, a decent Tier 6 upgrade should turn that fused aft weapon slot into a heavy weapon. But will they do it. We won't know until the ship gets a T6 version.

    Some of us did. Most people,... apparently not.

    No you're right, I didn't read that part because it wasn't in the Patch Notes for this week, it was in a News article from almost a month ago, my bad. Simply linking the page or a quick explanation would have sufficed, sarcasm wasn't needed but then again this is the forums so my bad.

    As to what you said about the removal of the Fused Tempest Cannon "mustrumridcully0", that's not a bad idea, turning it into a Fused 360 degree Tempest instead would be acceptable.

    Not everyone at the forums or in game is like this, but many are. I personally tolerate yelling, rage, and other ToS violations (online interactions not rated) over voice chat in bad games like Overwatch competitive, but this forum needs its own special kind of battle armor.

    Anyways, welcome to the forums!
