To mark the new series announcement, Cryptic are giving away the entire Enterprise bundle (ship and costumes), plus having another bonus XP week (although I bet this means the dilithium weekend gets delayed yet again!).

Also: T6 Defiant!
 
Sigh its always something I've already bought with these giveaways.

Oh well nice for the people who didn't have it yet and the xp boost will be nice, especially with the increase in xp I've been getting from the admiralty system.

Although I already had the nx-01, I was able to claim the bundle for the costumes :)
 
Do you have a Romulan Engineer or Science Officer? If so, I need your help! I need a screenshot of your character screen, like the one below.

The reason I'm asking for screenshots for these two romulan classes is because I'm working on creating a set of ship icons for use in my Admiralty Ship Optimizer and I want to make use the class icon found in the character screen.

I have managed to grab similar screencaps for all fed and kdf classes, but I'm out of character slots on my main account and the secondary account cannot create Romulan characters. So I would really appreciate it if you can post a screencap of your Rom Engineer/Science Officer's character screen!
 
What is the 3-piece set, and the epic device, that the engineer is using? Don't recognize either...
 
^Ah, been to lazy to finish my Delta recruit and get that (that's where it comes from, right?). Didn't buy the Iconian ground stuff yet either. Makes sense...

Yeah, it's from the Delta recruit stuff.

It's quite useful, because it revives you and your team (became very handy with that new ground STF), but has a nasty 10 min cooldown period.

I have both, so I'll take the screens for you later today.

That's exactly what I needed, thanks!

Glad to be of help :)
 
So the Defiant/T'Varo/B'Rel set is finally here.

The T'Varo looks to be a cloaked torpedo monster! With the 3 piece set reducing torpedo cooldown, destabilized plasma torpedo cooldown and enhancing torpedo shield penetration all at the same time you don't want to meet this ship in a dark alley!

The T6 Defiant seems ok, no real bells and whistles, just a beefed up version of the previous one with a more fleixible boff layout.
It was realistically out of the question, taking into account the other iconic ship layouts, but it really should have had pilot abilities.
I would hope that the Galaxy, Intrepid and Defiant will at some point retroactively gain command/intel/pilot specials.

Otherwise the Defiant is not the highest damage dealer, but looks solid and a good choice for straight escort.

The bundle is probably the most interesting price since I can actually see myself using all 3 ships every once in a blue moon, though not on my main.

But I will never get much mileage out of them, so have a hard time justifying the price.

Maybe I just buy some keys, sell those on the exchange, buy ship modules for those ECs and just get the fleet version for basically half the price or so on the toon I want it on.

Can't wait for my Romulan to upgrade to it.
 
I don't have the console set for T'Varo, but I must say I love this ship. Especially on my cannon character. :) The only downside I see if 3 tac console slots, so I plan to get a Fleet version to upgrade to 4-console version.
 
I don't get something. I have noticed while upgrading after a while I get diminishing returns. The stats start getting lower... why is that???

The T6 Defiant is my favorite ship. Its maneuverability makes it better than any other ship I own. I doesn't dish out a ton of damage, but the warhead module packs a punch.
 

This is a great idea! I've tried changing my traits before beginning a ground mission but they seem locked into place. Hopefully this new upgrade will allow that to not happen.

Did you try to do it on the ground? You can change them in sector space only, AFAIK.

Traits are only changable in what Cryptic deem as "Social Zones". This means Sector Space or most of the space stations like Earth Space Dock, Starfleet Academy, Starbase 234, Deep Space 9, Qo'Nos, New Romulus, etc...
