I like it, for a free ship you get a pretty decent platform 5/3 weapons layout Dual specialization seating Looks sexy AF Can run at least 6 Isomags when upgraded
You know, that is a really good point. Even with that Command seating, this is still better than a good number of lockbox/promo ships (including some that aren't even that old).
Did not expect a 5/3 - and Command/Temporal is an interesting mix Also, the lore is a nice touch on explaining the weird nacelle/pylons - they're oddly shaped even by the standards of the gigantic earth-shaking boobage that Cryptic usually seems to model their nacelle caps on But the pointyness and strange 'swoopieness' makes perfect sense for an Andorian-inspired design Kind of wish we could carry the Shran or the Cabot on it and complete the Federation-Andorian asthetic xD I'm thinking... USS Ushaan-Tor NCC 111767 (November 17th 1967 - the broadcast date of Journey to Babel which is the first time we saw an Andorian)
I'm rather surprised they gave it a 5/3 loadout. I was honestly expecting 4/4. While it's not looking GREAT (from a loadout perspective), it's looking good. And I can live with that.
I have a very silly torp build on the Leg Akira. It's all Torpedoes, the weapons, the consoles, the traits, even some personal traits. Anything I can get an extra torpedo from goes on that build.
I can't wait to get my paws on this sweetie. There is enough potential to play around with and my new Character needs a new main boat anyway so this beauty shows up at the right time. :3
So seeing the omega symbol on the ship, reminded of True Lies when Arnie entered the Omega Sector building & walked across the Omega symbol on the floor. So from now on every time my ship goes to Red Alert, I'll hear Arnie saying This is a Bright Boy alert! 😆
seven science seats with 4 temporal seats. going to be pulling all sorts of control abilities off. Throw on suppression barrage, torpspread and you got a decent support ship.
Running an Eagle Torpedo build myself. Looking forward to checking out the trait from this ship. It's got to have some kind of cd as I'm spamming torps every 0.5 seconds
When I saw the stats for this ship, I said "Oh that's cool! You can get Concentrate Firepower III and Recursive Shearing III on this, that's great". But after you said you didn't like the placement of the Tac/Command seat and I thought about it, I understood why and came to the same conclusion about switching the Tac and Science seats. I'm also not that upset about the console layout - it makes it equally good for Isomags or Vulnerability Locators, so it's more accessible for everyone Nevertheless, the fact that the layout is pretty great beyond that is nice, especially for a free ship and one that a lot of people have been waiting for. It seems like a fun ship to fly, so I might have to give it a shakedown before hopping back into my Sagan 😊
The Universal Console seems like it's gonna be a fun addition to my EPG/Torp captain's vulcan squid =D Launch out my anomalies and fire this web off to the clustered bunch. Be fun to test out. Though I can see the ship iteself being decently useful as a FAW tank with Sup Barrage 1 and a lower lvl FAW mode (Ba'ul Weapons buffed from ISOmags should take care of the dmg/aggro magnet side)
It's a good ship to get, will be fun for new players. Gives us another good admiralty card. Really I can't complain at all about this because I am pretty darn happy with it. I get the top end players are more critical, I am not a top tier player so I am not as discerning. I just want to have fun and this will be fun. Checks all my boxes.
Thanks for this overview. I plan on getting it. I love the looks of it, and yeah, I do agree about the Bridge Seating, but it is versatile enough to make some decent builds, no doubt.
Personally, I see some Intrepid, Nova, Sovereign, and Vesta influence in the styling. Hope they keep that set of inspirations for future ships. It looks like my Starfleet Delta Recruit finally found their ship, and they are my phaser character already. Also... FREE SHIP!
She'll play well. Even with Command seat being where it is, this ship will be able to pull off a good amount of variety of build styles. It'll be like a more versatile Gagarin. If you like battlecruisers, you'll like this.
Well I like it looks. I Can at least run 5 Isomags and one colonly tactical consol. I always run at least one energy torpedo. It has synergy with my phaser build so it works for me all the way up to elite TFO's. The only time I don't use my agony Torpedo is on science ships. Less weapons so all beams for that.
I wonder if they'll offer the original textures for ship customization (the secondary hull was crap, but the double nacelles were cool and the saucer, while low poly, had a nice shape). I'd like to mix n' match.
The only thing really wrong with the secondary hull is windows on the aft end sides which are over....nothing, you rotate around the end of the hull and its that hollow space for the shuttle bays, there's nothing behind that area to have a window into.
Meh i like it and will fly it. I base what i fly on looks and ehats fun. I dont follow meta or high damage builds i fly and play for fun. and no i dont do torp builds. I use a forward torp andaft torp because space barbie haha but i dont say mean things about torp builds 😅
This looks interesting. I may finally get around to progressing something other than the T6 Ferengi ship I've been using. I will lament loosing access to the bank, mail, and Dabo from the bridge, though. :-)
@@Stu1701 Oh? Interesting, I may have to try that. Then again, the one major drawback of the Ferengi bridge is that that's *all* of the internals...no engine room, rec deck, etc. Which does hamper showing off trophies/ship models (which seems a little odd for Ferengi...you'd think they's *want* to be able to show that off, the GPL stuff especially), and the secondary DOFF stuff that doesn't show up in the main menu (Bartending/Chef, etc.) Either that, or I've missed the access to those entirely for the whole time I've used the ship. :-/
While im ok with the boff and console layout, i do feel that they did the ship dirty by dropping it to a battle cruiser. The typhoon npc was starfleets dreadnought before the Galaxy X was brought into the game.
Not to sound like a smart ass but have you considered they just are trying to give ships for different niches and to be interesting not just the same perfectly optimized design over and over again with ships not everything is gonna be meta or optimal what matters is if it's fun
Yes, but as someone who is familiar with most of those niches, this ain't that. This is more of an example of Borticus' "not every ship can be good" mentality. I get the need to change things up a bit for the sake of being different (you can do so many different combinations for seating a specs), but this doesn't fill any kind of niche, all this does is force you to chose which you want more, Command seating or Tactical seating.
Agreed. Most the times I don't fly ships based on stats or seating it's mostly based on what's fun and what looks nice. Not everyone plays for the meta or to be crazy damage.
@@Stu1701 well the high hull and torpedo focus lends me to think this might be something of a brawler more so with a hold as well it's meant to pin enemies down and trade fire with them and win in a last man standing wins type manner Also if we are talking about optimal building actually no there is mathematically the most optimal and everything else is less than that for a given role
Honestly... If this thing had the command on another slot it would beat out practically everything except maybe the world razor. I think while the flaw is annoying, it may be even intended, and why not - if every new ship is meta then at some point they would have to turn the power creep screw again - which is already way beyond too much. On top, Command is not a thing for most of the casual player base anyway - it's got little impact in pugs or story content. And as you said yourself - 'expletive deleted' torpedo builds (and tanking for that matter). I'm more happy about decent maneuverability in combination with a pretty sturdy ship from the stats and package. With Dual Heavies could give this a real battlecruiser feel. That and the 5+3+temp+space barbie will make this likely a very good ship to have, so stop complaining already ;)
This might be a dumb thing to say, but I always saw ships like the Typhoon, Nobel, and the old Jupiter class as a reflection of old STO's theme. Dark, blocky, and spooky looking.
I think you're massively overstating the command seating issue. It's a mark against the ship but it's not a crippling issue and the fact you can get CF3 and RS3 makes it extremely potent for a torpedo build. This ship is really nice. I'm impressed by it.
I don’t care for this ship but can’t wait till they announce the Halloween event I really want a ghost ship even if it’s just a console that does similar to what the nakuel ships do with their projections but since ghost ship make our ship a cloaked ship that has a ghost ship projection that bounces around in time and space or even a actual fly able ghost ship but what ship would it be the defiant consitution class that one comes close to ghost ship from tos
That ship trait looks interesting. Do the micro charges count as torpedoes themselves? Or are the untyped kinetic damage? What traits do they interact with? One of my first thoughts is the Terrain Eagle escort might have synergy woth this. The Federation has assimilated the Tholian web technology. Angle off the Bow might work well with this. Does the trait stack with the Terrain Task Force Secondary Launchers ability? Can I get 3-4 shots for the price of one?
Impossible to know until we get our hands on the trait. I'm betting they'll count as Kinetic damage, so some things will trigger for them, but others won't. Testing will have to be done with the ship is available.
Tail looks rather Vesta to me. What bugs me more is the ‘person’ hogging 8mil zen in the exchange, when there are so many players out there waiting to convert dil.
I don't recall that about the Typhoon. It's a Cryptic original design, even before they started outsourcing ship art like they often do these days, so it would've been done by whoever was on the game's ship art team at the time.
Promote all your BOffs to commander, and train them on all the skills. If you've played for a while you'll be able to do that with no issues. It's just tedious.
@@Stu1701 I did mainly just run control support for just about every sto streamer for a number of years, so there is a bit of a bias there haha 😄 I think this ship ticks a lot of boxes, on top of it being a pretty good looking fed ship. I am glad we are seeing this new trend for event ships continue.
Outside of the Mudd's bundle, no. It's extremely unlikely that they'll make those available in any other way after the release of that bundle. Which sucks, because I know many who only missed one or two, and don't want to spend Mudd's bundle money for them. It was a really bad move on STO's part, and I hope they realize that, but they very rarely change past decisions like that.
Forget the command shit and use it as a temporal cruiser, would be my advice... but I don't really care either way, because i am an intel freak... but since its free, i probably pick it up.. i don't get the 1.4 hull designation anyway, what does that mean ?... 140.000 hull or something ?... i thought they never go above 81-83.000 max or something. I do wish they made a universal statement about hull strength. not 1,4 the one time and 64000 the other... its confusing...
YES, THIS SHIP UNLOCKS ON YOUR WHOLE ACCOUNT. TO CLAIM IT ON ANOTHER CHARACTER OPEN THE EVENTS MENU, CLICK RECLAIM REWARDS ON THE LOWER LEFT, AND IT SHOULD BE IN THE SHIPS TAB.
It would be nice if the lifetime subscriber's got this ship for free. If the sto community had been waiting for the ship ..... just give it to the community for free instead of us jumping through hoops. If it goes into mudds market I'll buy it then.
Yes, all both of them (not counting Transport Warhead, since this ship can't use it). I highlighted High Yield when talking about a Torpedo build on this ship because that's the firing mode you'd want to use in such a situation.
I don't ignore it, I just don't get it from the seating. I trigger it with Entwined Tactical Matrices so I can get two quick torp spread 1's (by activating FaW and CSV) that don't share a cooldown with the High Yield in my boff seating.

I like it, for a free ship you get a pretty decent platform
5/3 weapons layout
Dual specialization seating
Looks sexy AF
Can run at least 6 Isomags when upgraded
It’s a good ship when considering it’s free. Better than ships like the revelation that cost $200 bucks and can’t be account unlocked.
You know, that is a really good point. Even with that Command seating, this is still better than a good number of lockbox/promo ships (including some that aren't even that old).
Did not expect a 5/3 - and Command/Temporal is an interesting mix
Also, the lore is a nice touch on explaining the weird nacelle/pylons - they're oddly shaped even by the standards of the gigantic earth-shaking boobage that Cryptic usually seems to model their nacelle caps on
But the pointyness and strange 'swoopieness' makes perfect sense for an Andorian-inspired design
Kind of wish we could carry the Shran or the Cabot on it and complete the Federation-Andorian asthetic xD
I'm thinking... USS Ushaan-Tor NCC 111767 (November 17th 1967 - the broadcast date of Journey to Babel which is the first time we saw an Andorian)
"For a free ship, it flew pretty good" -Me
I see what you did there
I said the original quote in relation to the Typhon recently. That tactical carrier's pretty nimble.
Yup, definitely excited for this ship. I mostly think it's funny that the Typhoon is coming out right after the Typhon. Surely I'm not the only one.
I know, right. Releasing the Typhon and the Typhoon in span of only a few months, it's like they're trying to create a typo minefield lol
This is probably gonna be a Torpy boat for me
Then you're going to have to pick between High Yield 3 or CF 3.
@Stu1701 I'll make it work, got a few options to boost Torpy torp power 👍
Concentrate Firepower 3 with Recusive Shearing 3 will blow anything to kingdom come anyway.
@@Stu1701I use high yield 2 with CF3 works very well imo

First free ship with a dual and primary command spec
This is primary Temp/secondary Command.
The Vovin is a full spec primary Command/MW
Both are dual spec
@@lvl99link I forget the obelisk
