    Poisonous breath, blood that can kill you when you scent it. Many heads, unknown how many exactly - it may even regrow two for each one that's cut off.

    At least, that's what the Wiki says.

    Or, check this out:

    I don't know how reliable it is, but assuming that it wasn't just made up entirely, some of it is true.

    Noticed that was missing, and shot it up the chain. All we can do now is wait.

    The hydra has been added, but it has a Raider mastery package, even though it is a Destroyer, and it's still 5/1/1

    I'm presuming/hoping that the weapon layout and cloaking is still in limbo. That said, I'm personally quite disappointed by the bridge seat layout/flexibility. You cannot run Photonic Officer 2 on the ship without heavily sacrificing any engineering capacity(and forget running pilot team if you do). It's mildly ironic considering the episode the Prometheus is actually from(featuring the idea of the Emergency Command Hologram) and that the 'advanced escort' line was supposed to be the one that favored science.

    It was actually the ship I was most looking forward to from the bundle as the Prometheus was my main ship back when I started STO over a decade ago, but as things have evolved over the years.. I can confidently say that I will never fly the Hydra because of its miserable bridge layout. (It lacks the engineering excess to 'comfortably' run Aux2Bat, and boimler-based builds are too rng for my liking.)

    Here's hoping the Legendary Akira will have atleast have the universal seating capacity to run PO2 without crippling itself so I can actually play/enjoy my favorite ship in all of trek.. (I've tried using it in a wide variety of builds across many characters over the years, but current iterations simply don't measure up to what I require of it anymore - which is primarily a seating issue.)

    -Edit: I'm dumb and misread the LtCmdr Eng seat as an ensign one(likely due to sleep deprivation). Hydra bridge layout is great!

    I notice that the description of the Eagle's console (Covert Warhead Module) omits any mention of its passives -- notably the reduction in the shared torpedo cooldown, which was kind of a big deal. Has that changed since the livestream, or is this just an oversight?

    I'm still hoping they do an actual legendary version of the Hestia in the future since this is simply a Terran version.

    i was planning to collect that ship but the stats look absolutely subpar

    14 turn rate with a 1.2 hull and 1.05 shields ? I mean if its a 14 turn rate its means HEAVY and the hull and shield should be higher, if hull and shield are lower than it should have better turn rate.

    And yeah, 1x back weapon is big no-no for me

    I hope this is a misinfo or something or they fix it



  • vanhyovanhyo Member Posts: 229 Arc User
    i guess what i am saying is:
    - 5-2-1 weapons is a must if this ship is to be considered for serious
    - either give it 16 turn rate (light destroyer) or give it 1.37 hull modifier (heavy destroyer), but low turn combined with low hull is meh sad.

    Is the Hydra also supposed to have the Raider mastery package instead of something fitting Intel Destroyer?

    Probably a bug like the weapon layout, the Eagle was/is a raider and in the Ten Forward stream they said the dev copied the stats from the Eagle as a starting point, so it's possible the mastery package was part of that.
