The regent is a nice ship. I've been flying escorts mostly as of late but going back to cruisers more and more. I like the Regent alot, but, i've come to like the Ambassador class ship (Yeah, the free one) even more. Reason for going back to cruisers have been that i feel i want to be good at several ship types, not only…

Your commander eng station you could get DEM III for it, it's pretty effective on FAW A2B builds :-)
-
I dont see anything wrong with a2b builds in general, only that they can get to be expensive for doffs and equipment. But i agree, get rid of the torps and the harg'peng. Get the kinetic cutting beam as soon as you can, or equip it right away. Front: get two more arrays and get rid of the dbb, it does give higher damage…

I've been using the mobius for quite a while. For me, using an Aux2battery build has worked in most scenarios, pvp, pve. AP's is a good choice especially if you use the temporal warfare set on it. I did this quickly so you can see what i mean. http://skillplanner.stoacademy.com/?build=mobiusa2b_0 Now, it's not a very cheap…

I'd like to test the Chimmy too... But buying a LTS to test one ship seems i a bit extreme :-D Yeah, i know the ship is just a bonus when buying LTS. So, seeing it as a fleet ship would be interesting, without the DTS console for those who dont have the LTS ship.
-
Ok, sorry, it has two different modes. :-D Oh i have given you answers, they just have not been sufficient for you. That has nothing to do with how many consoles there is slotted. As i said, it's UP to you how you wish to use your console slots. Believe what you wish. But reading this what you saying tells me one thing...…
-
Can you name any other console that can change the ship into three different modes? And, i think there are two more consoles that actually have longer cd's than the DTS system have. Sorry, i am not a dps junkie. However you said My reply was telling you that a 9 console slotted ship does not need to underperform comparing…
-
I however have been out in the pvp-field alot... And i have never encountered TIF once, i have however, used it myself on my Mobius. EPTE and Evasives counter it perfectly and pulling all to engine power before using them. Atleast that is what my friend does when i hit him with it, and he is usually 20k away from it after…
-
Yes, some are shorter and some are longer, like the consoles on this ship. In reallity, you are wrong there. It happens very very seldom that i do not top the dmg and kill points list with my 9 console ship in pvp. Ofcourse it will... Different engine. And it "can" be an advantage, nothing is certain.
-
Can't argue with that.. However the abilties and consoles have cooldowns so they will not be repeted every minute, in the favour of the game, it's supposed to be challening. Now, i am not a LTS... But then, i still use ships with 9 consoles and i have not that many problems so it ruins my gameplay, in pvp or pve.…
-
It might be a pretty darn good ship, i really dont know since i am not a LTS. I think however... They should do the LTS ships like they have done with some weapons. Scalable by level of the player. Yes, that is the reason probably to why they threw in this ship and the klingon version of it in the LTS deal. And that is…
-
Oh yes cry me river, having this on the npc ships wouldn't be so nice would it? You are using an absurd console that have not much impact on npc on the overall outcome. That is, and meaning, that you defend something that is absurd for the generality of your gameplay which this console hardly affect. Now... Sinking down to…
-
Sorry for jumping in here... I dont think he is meaning that he want a better ship in that sense of the wording. But a ship that is on par with the ships that is today, just as it was when they released the 1k lts ship. It would also help keeping the LTS sales up if people know they are getting a ship that is comparable…
-
It is one of the worst consoles ever for the pvp community. It's easy to say that it will be nerfed down because of us who belong to that group of players of this game. Perhaps that is true... Game tactics, boff abilities, captain abilities doesn't really matter when it comes to this console. You never know when it will be…
-
It's a fun ship to fly. Using A2B on it only strengthens the ship even more. True it is not comparable with most bugs but it can hold out for a very long time against a bug ship. Used it more than my mobius lately :-D
-
Anyways, i just found out that i can not claim this uniform. The reason seem to be that i bought a game pack, not sure which, but in that pack i was supposed to get uniforms. The uniform that was with the game was the DS9, but i never could claim it because it said it was discontinued. I hope this will not affect the…
-
Thank You Cryptic! This is very kind of you, and in all a giveaway like this is bigger than any event :-)
-
Yes, that is much for a ship that doesn't have the same built in shield and hull bonus as cruisers already have. And because of that, i dont think there will be much of a difference really, because a lower percentage on large number will still give more than a high percentage on a lower number. Or in this case, it will be…
-
It's not logical to have dilithium costs trough all tiers. With first tier, yes. That will be buying and installing the drilling equipment and callibrating those. When the mining starts we should start getting the DIL. Where is the need to slot even more dil into the project then? And will the mine even give back the…
-
Are cruisers limited from using these consoles? This will not change anything from where cruisers and escorts are today. Compared to eachother before these consoles will be slotted on the ships, and in between the different ship types, not much will change. It will probably be more or less like it has been the whole time.…
-
They can be very unforgiving to play if they are not setup right, escorts are easy like that put the best weapons and consoles you can find and you have usually a good escort ship. ___________________________________________________________________________________ People complain about the lacking balance in game, agreed,…
-
Yes another "cruisers are useless" thread. I'm not flying a cruiser, have tried to set one up, did fairly good with it. It's just the amby, but got it pretty nice still, nothing compared to a perfectly built assault cruiser or a excell. I can say this tho, as i have said many times.... I've met cruisers that shredd my…

I'm not the one who usually complains when it comes to STO, for a free MMO it is not so bad. Usually... But this has become a daylie occurance now. A MMO that has this much down time is a MMO that looses lot's of money. It was the same with the last maintenance, no patch, but it still patched over 160mb after the…
-
Got in earlier but was forced to leave for a while.. Now when i am trying to get back, the Q was at an amazing 19k! Bigger and better servers Cryptic? :-)
-
I do understand how those who bought any of the packs feel about the situation tho. But this is how it has been for a very long time now, many season updates has been affected by the high user count that try to connect and download from the patch server. This expansion of the game is no exception to the rule. And with the…
-
This is something that Cryptic has been aware of for some time now. Their system for patching is obsolete and goes down to riduculus level of transfer speed when more than 1000 people connect to it. What is even more riduculus is, that they have done nothing about it, prepatches... but that does not help when there are…
-
My favourite setup with the mobius is the a2b one. Works pretty much on everything, pvp & pve.
-
Yeah, could and would be fun! Except for adding silly rules against ewp, tif, danubes, carriers, or whatever what is "disliked" in the game in pvp. Soon we will have, rules against too many weapons or, no disruptors, polarons, hybrid weapon types, phasers plasma.... The game gives tools to use, removing them from the pvp…
-
No problemas :-) But there are other builds if you want to be brave.... Like a2b, DEM's... But you will lose alot of defense with those, and bugs(?, or defiant?) can be rather squishy
-
Hey And welcome back! I'm not the very best when it comes to bug ship builds, but i'll try... Pretty basic setup Lt. Sci. I would slott 2 HE there Lt. Eng. I would also change RSP to one more EPtS Boffs, all human is requiered. Ens. Eng ET I Com. Tac. TT1, BOII, RFII, AP:O III You get a better gain on RFII with AP:O III…
