General:   If you have the Science Vessel (Refit) as one of your ships, you should now be able to use the Rhode Island variant pieces on any Rhode Island/Nova variant ship.   NOTE: if you dismiss the Science Vessel (Refit), access to these parts may go away.  Updated the Skeleton Boss's Scream during the Task Force Operation, “Cat’s Tale”, so that it will now knock back all targets; previously, when the Skeleton Boss screamed, there was a random choice in which targets were affected by the knock back.  Added max duration to the description of "Sixth Sense" Ground Trait.  Resolved a typo in the reward pack for the "Sixth Sense" Ground Trait. 

General:   Resolved an issue that was preventing EV Suit abilities from being available for use.    Resolved an issue that was preventing Body Armor stats from applying while wearing an EV Suit.   Resolved an issue that was preventing Captains from having and Active Shuttle and Ship at the same time.   Resolved an issue that was preventing Captains who owned only the Legendary Scimitar Intel Dreadnought Warbird [T6], from purchasing Advanced Romulan Drone Ships from the Dilithium Store.  Resolved an issue that was causing unlaunched Buster Pods to never clean up properly.   They will now despawn after 5 seconds if no valid foes are found nearby.

We are excited to announce remasters of everyone’s second favorite science vessels, the scrappy Nova and Rhode Island! These remasters were total rebuilds from the ground up and include a new, screen—accurate ship material. In addition, we’ve added all the “legendary” starship materials to the Nova family! The new Nova and Rhode Island remasters were built for us by famed Star Trek modeler Tobias Richter. We’re excited to give these ships a long-needed refresh, and hope you enjoy their new look. To see the new art, ready any ship in the Nova family, visit the Ship Customization Interface, and select the appropriate preset in the lower left.

For Starfleet officers and Romulan allies, this is an engineering Exocomp duty officer; for KDF officers and Romulan allies, it is a Reman duty officer. *This is not available if you already claimed it the last time we ran the event. Duty officer packs** opened during the event will each have a FREE additional Green quality or better duty officer inside. This only applies to C-Store purchased packs, not to those awarded during rank-up, from recruitment assignments or mini-packs. Also, it applies only to packs opened during the event, even if they are purchased prior to the event.  **The packs included in this offer are: Delta Alliance Duty Officer Pack, Gamma Quadrant Duty Officer Cadre, Reinforcements Duty Officer Pack, Fleet Support Duty Officer Pack, Romulan Survivor Duty Officer Pack, Fleet Support Duty Officer Pack, Klingon Empire Duty Officer Pack and Federation Duty Officer Pack.

As you scan and capture particles you’ll help to train the cadet, and in exchange your faction will release a new random Duty Officer to you. The more particles you scan, the better the quality of the officer you can claim! Scan a minimum of 5 traces to be rewarded a Common Duty Officer Scan a minimum of 25 traces to be rewarded a Uncommon Duty Officer Scan a minimum of 50 traces to be rewarded a Rare Duty Officer Scan a minimum of 75 traces to be rewarded a Very Rare Duty Officer   Remember, additional reserve roster duty officer slots (in increments of 25 and 100) are available from the in-game C-Store, for up to a maximum of 500 reserve roster spaces.

Friends! Welcome, once again, to a major event at the ever changing secret location of Mudd's Market! I, Harcourt Fenton -bzzt- Mudd, am pleased to exclusively debut two brand new items for you on this fine, fine night! The first was a surprise to even me. When I -bzzt- traveled to this time period, I was shocked to discover I had brought with me an entire crate of perfectly servicable Kidd drones. But of course, these magificent robots could not be sold at "perfectly servicable." No sir, my team of highly trained and well paid engineers worked night and day to update them to modern technical specifications, to serve whatever need you have, in whatever quadrant. But the pièce de résistance awaits you in that hangar over there. You remember that bad business a little while ago, where all of those portals were opening to the Mycelial Realm and the Elachi were pouring out? Well, I aquired, at great personal expense, a limited supply of the Elachi's own Qulash Frigates. And, my good, dear friends, this powerful vessel could be yours for a low, low price! Please, form an orderly line and all of me will be happy to take your order. Ma'am? Ma'am! No pushing!   Two new items, the Kidd Drone and the Elachi Qulash Frigate, are entering Mudd's Market on October 7th, on Xbox and Playstation, and very, very, very soon on PC! You can find them in the Mudd's Market tab of the Zen Store, for 8,000 and 17,000 Zen, respectively. But that's not all, as the entire store will be on sale for 75% off from October 7th at 8am PT (17:00 CEST) to October 11th at 10am PT (19:00 CEST), on Xbox and Playstation. We'll have updated dates for the sale on PC as soon as the items go live there. Enjoy, Captains! .share-footer a { margin: 20px 10px 10px 0; background: url(https://pwimages-a.akamaihd.net/arc/d7/af/d7afaaa14e96d0d973f76157ae31ec5b1466398539.png) no-repeat 0 0; opacity: .5; display: inline-block; height: 60px; width: 60px; padding: 0; border: 1px solid transparent; -webkit-transition: opacity .3s; transition: opacity .3s; } .share-footer .TI { background-position: 0 20%; } .share-footer .YT { background-position: 0 40%; } .share-footer .YT { background-position: 0 40%; } .share-footer .TW { background-position: 0 60%; } .share-footer .FO { background-position: 0 80%; } .FB:hover { background-position: 100% 0%; } .TI:hover { background-position: 100% 20%; } .YT:hover { background-position: 100% 40%; } .TW:hover { background-position: 100% 60%; } .FO:hover { background-position: 100% 80%; } .share-footer a:hover { opacity: 1; -webkit-transition: opacity .3s; transition: opacity .3s; } $(document).ready( function() { $('.show-lightbox').click(function() { var $el = $(this); var link = $el.data().lightbox; $.colorbox({href: link, maxWidth: '90%', maxHeight: '90%', scalePhotos: true}); }); }); .headerimage { border: 2px inset rgba(255, 255, 255, .05); border-radius: 2em; box-shadow: 5px 5px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, .3); -webkit-transition: all 500ms ease; -moz-transition: all 500ms ease; -ms-transition: all 500ms ease; -o-transition: all 500ms ease; transition: all 500ms ease; }

General:   Resolved an issue that would sometimes prevent progression during the episode, “Firewall”, during mission steps that required defeating enemies.   Resolved an issue that could sometimes prevent completing “Into the Hive”, after defeating the Borg Queen.   Slightly reduced the damage of the DoT from the Portable Phaser Cannon Special Issue.   Increased the damage output from Randomly Transporting Saurian Duty Officer.  The Randomly Transporting Saurian Duty Officer will no longer die when summoned in a hazardous environment.  

Celebrate the deep lineage of another of Star Trek’s famous ship classes, with the upcoming Ship of the Line Bundle, this time featuring the Steamrunner Class! This bundle features ships from this class that currently appear at multiple tiers in Star Trek Online’s existing vast ship catalogue, as well as a brand new Tier-6 variant that will soon be swelling its familial ranks. The Ships of the Line: Blockade Runner Bundle will appear on the in-game Zen Store as “Blockade Runner Bundle” and will feature the following contents: 1 Ship Upgrade Token (T5-U) 2 Experimental Ship Upgrade Tokens T1 Blockade Runner Escort T5 Blockade Runner Escort Retrofit **NEW** T6 Appalachia Blockade Runner Escort The bundle will become available on 10/1/21 on PC, at a price of 5,000 Zen. Introductory sales pricing will apply through 10/8/21, reducing the price by 35%! The T6 Appalachia will also be available as a separate purchase in the Zen Store. Anyone who already owns the T5 Steamrunner may have noticed a recent update to its appearance in-game, which served as a prelude to this release. If you already own the T5 Blockade Runner Escort and wish to see this update, ready the ship and then visit the Ship Customization Interface and apply the Steamrunner template to see the new design. The canon Steamrunner update is free for anyone who has the T5 or T6 Blockade Runner Escort. Appalachia Blockade Runner Escort [T6] This well-rounded escort is durable, agile and outfitted with an excessive amount of weapon mounts, by Starfleet standards. Redundant power couplings run along the length of nearly every subsystem, cross-linking them with the ship's various energy and torpedo emitters, ensuring that all weapon systems remain operational for as long as possible in any conflict, regardless of the damage the ship may receive in return. This ship features a Lt. Commander Tactical / Command Bridge Officer specialist seat, and a Lieutenant Universal / Intel Bridge Officer specialist seat.

Upon reaching their target destination these warheads will detonate causing massive damage to any starships unfortunate to be caught in the blasts. These detonations cause a large subspace tear to appear and damage and disable nearby enemy starships. This console also provides a passive boost to Shield Penetration and Projectile Weapon Damage.   Experimental Weapon: Hull Spike Battery This experimental piece of weaponry was designed to deal catastrophic damage to a target starship's hull by bypassing its shields entirely and then drilling through the starship's armoring directly into the vulnerable starship components.

Event Campaign – Part III:   No Win Scenario Event:   This Featured Event is the fourth of a series of upcoming Events that will participate in the third installment of our multi-event system known as an Event Campaign.   This Event will include multiple TFOs previously featured individually in a combined Featured Event that will allow players to choose their preferred test each day.  The event versions of “Kobayashi Maru” and “Arena of Sompek” can be accessed via the new Event UI, accessible within your Mission Journal by pressing on the “Events” Tab.  Participating in this Event will give all players the opportunity to win a Temporal Hack Kit Module for their entire account!  Kobayashi Maru and Arena of Sompek TFO Updates:   Each have a fixed duration during this Event.   Prior to the designated ending point, neither can be failed.  During this Event, the Untimed/Infinite versions of these TFOs will be temporarily disabled.  Each completion will reward a Choice of All Marks (replacing the usual Mark rewards).  Both TFOs have had their Cooldown Timers temporarily disabled.  Rewards:   Players will be able to earn their Daily Progress once every 20 hours.   Accruing a total of 14 days’ worth of Daily Progress will allow you to  claim all of these rewards:  Kit Module – Temporal Hack (Account-Wide Reward)  25,000 Dilithium Ore (once only).  3x Featured TFO Reward

SUBSPACE COMMUNIQUE DATA PACKET 087077-93 STARDATE 88168.8 IONIC INTERFERENCE DETECTED TRANSMISSION DECRYPTION AND RESTORATION ATTEMPTED. CONTENTS FOLLOW. NOTE: THIS TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN FLAGGED FOR REVIEW BY STARFLEET INTELLIGENCE. SECURITY CLEARANCE PI-1-1-0 UNITED FEDERAT//MPERIAL STARFLEET ADVANCED STARSHIP DESIGN BUREAU From the office of Lord Baron Vice Admiral S. J. Hem//phill RE: PERFORMANCE EVALUATION REPORTS: NCC-91480, NCC-90500, NCC-97667, & NCC-92190 This report describes initial qualitative and quantitative findings for several new variant starship classes deployed in the past several months. These starships rep//resent an essential step on the path to glory for the Terran Empire. While there is merit in pursuing generational leaps in technology, it would be foolish for us to simultaneously neglect incremental progress // and improved flexibility as we see more new construction come online. In the wake of years of conflict and tragedy, we see the demands on Starfleet expand almost daily. To meet those needs we must be creative // and maximize the yield from our efforts by matching the platform to the mission. When we do not have an appropriate weapon to accomplish the mission, // we must prioritize the development of new class variants based on existing or planned construction to meet these needs quickly and efficiently. This is, of course, a long-standing tradition in Starfleet, but is especially relevant now as we utilize advancements in rapid prototyping, decalithium power systems, and // confiscated technologies from Imperial conquests. Starships have never been more modular, and to bring the Empire’s might to bear we must be willing to adapt our hardware as well as our tactics. Review the attached readiness reports and mission profiles for several new starship variants launched earlier this year. //  This report has been compiled from reviews of logs, internal sensor data, and crew interviews. From these results I remain bullish on the viability of further “Flight II” variants, // and expect their versatility to be a powerful arrow in the Imperial quiver.// U.S.S CABOT – NCC-91480 The Cabot was initially slated to be a the eleventh Shran-class starship to be commissioned for long-range anti-piracy duty, but the escalation of tensions within the Klingon Empire suggested a need for a starship that combined the Shran’s strategic endurance // with a heavier alpha-strike capability. The Cabot features two large dorsal pylons attached to the main hull inboard of the nacelles. These pylons // mount versatile probe and warhead launchers. Compared to the Shran, the Cabot has much more limited cargo space as // a large portion of its troop bays have been sacrificed for an increased magazine size. // To accommodate these new systems, the Cabot’s sensor and deflector systems are more tightly focused favoring accuracy in a small area over general situational awareness. U.S.S. BOZEMAN – NCC-90500 Inspired by the Soyuz-class that saw service in the late 23rd century, the U.S.S. Bozeman began life as a Reliant-Class Advanced Light Cruiser. // Compact and versatile, the Reliants are an unglamourous but vital asset to the Imperial Fleet. As the God-Emperor Napoleon once said, “Amateurs discuss tactics, but professionals study logistics.” // With this increased logistical capacity, along with the launch of the multi-mission light cruiser U.S.S. Clarke and her sister ships, we have seen a rapid replenishment of Starfleet’s frigate and light cruiser // Order of Battle. To supplement these lighter units, The Bozeman was earmarked to pilot a “Heavy Frigate” program. Starting with the Reliant-class space frame, the Bozeman received a suite // of additional sensors, variable payload launchers, communications equipment, and an extended aft superstructure housing a third shuttlebay. With these improved command and control facilities, the Bozeman could serve as a small squadron flagship, orchestrating survey or defense operations for a frontier sector, working in concert with other light units. // During fleet engagements, the Bozeman is perfectly suited to coordinate screening elements and remove combat load from the larger fleet combatants. While the increased capabilities and firepower do make the Bozeman superior to its Reliant cousins in every measurable sense, the resources required to build it are 70-85% of the tactically superior Shenzhou class, // so it is likely that if any more Bozemans are made they will be Reliants slated for an upgrade, amortizing the increased cost over a longer service life. //I.S.S. TRAILBLAZER - NCC-97667 Even for the most bellicose among us, I will be the first to admit that the Trailblazer is a bit of a monstrosity. // When I initially reviewed the proposal to modify the sleek Pathfinder-class Trailblazer into a gnarled mess of right angles covered with phasers, sensor arrays, and launch tubes, I // almost had the engineer responsible shot into space. But after enduring a bit of her groveling, I came to see Commander Whetu’s reasoning: by combining the extremely robust and sensitive sensor suite of the Pathfinder // with a variety of weapons and particle emitters, the Trailblazer could become a valuable long-range laboratory able to conduct large-scale experiments using exotic particles and radiation. Of course, the Pathfinder’s warp power system is not designed to handle such a huge collection of // weapons arrays, so in a combat scenario it would not be able to make use of its entire arsenal at once. That said, with its state-of-the art sensor suite, it could use its instruments to detect weaknesses in a target’s shielding and tune its specialized equipment to exploit any weaknesses it discovered in real time. //U.S.S. PEGASUS - NCC-92190 The Andromeda-class Exploration Cruiser was one of the earlier examples of sixth-generation Starfleet technology, and it proved itself a capable but temperamental starship during Operation // Delta Falling and the subsequent Iconian Campaigns. Still, its versatility, survivability and range made it a powerful// exploration cruiser at the hands of an experienced crew. After a small round of upgrades, the base Andromeda design has had its kinks ironed out. One of the newest Andromeda-class starships, the U.S.S. Pegasus was heavily damaged at the Battle of Empersa but was able to return to Spacedock under its own power. // While discussing its repairs, ASDB engineers proposed a variety of upgrades and structural modifications. Compared to the Andromeda, its power systems have been supplemented to drive an advanced suite of // heavy defensive systems. This comes at the tradeoff of lower power output for the Structural Integrity Field generators and some C2 capacity, but it should provide an interesting mix of capabilities as a heavy explorer capable of long-range exploration and defense. CONCLUSIONS //Any imperial officer worth their salt knows that vigilance and adaptability are key tools to survival. This is true for the individual and for the // starship. The true strength of Starfleet and its Engineering Corps lies in its diverse persp//oyalty to the Emperor, of course, but also its ability to innovate when it comes to tools of viol//ploration.   Vice Admiral S. //J. Hemphill Presiding Officer ASDB, // ACSDB UPDATING 25TH CENTURY STARSHIPS In the 11+ years that Star Trek Online has been boldly going, we have brought hundreds of ships from the Star Trek Universe to life. Not only have we recreated ships featured in Star Trek shows and films, but we have also developed a unique language for what starships look like in the second decade of Star Trek’s 25th century. Beginning with Age of Discovery, we found ourselves building Starships to an ever-increasing level of detail, and over the past few years have remastered many of our fan-favorite ‘canon’ ships to an unprecedented fidelity. But this has left a gap in quality between the newly-remastered “canon” starships and some of our older “STO-Original” ships meant to be the evolution of canon-fan favorites such as the Galaxy to the Andromeda or the Intrepid to the Pathfinder. And so, when we decided that the plan for our next huge story arc was going to be the Mirror Universe, we got excited, as this was the perfect time to address that quality gap. We wanted our STO original designs, starships made with our signature style, to match the fidelity and detail we had been able to imbue in the starships from Discovery and our recent Legendary ship remasters. In the Mirror Universe, the 25th Century Starfleet would be the ‘bad guys’ and we could set aside time to make sure their ships were up to snuff. This meant that we could remaster some of our favorite 25th-century designs, and in addition, create some new variants to add variety to the updated Terran Imperial Fleet. (NOTE: These new variants are NOT available as playable ships for the time being!). The goal with these changes was to be able to put these STO-era starships next to our remastered Galaxy or Intrepid class and have them both co-exist with a similar quality and attention to detail. We can’t wait for you all to get a closer look at the hard work that has been done, and we hope you enjoy taking some of these ships out for another spin. Here is a breakdown of all the Starfleet ships that have been updated. Some were total remasters, while others were less-extensive material and detail updates. If you have one of these ships, make sure to visit the Ship Customization interface and select the proper preset, then apply it to your ship, to see the update correctly.   Andromeda Class Exploration Cruiser Concorde Class Command Battlecruiser Gagarin Class Battlecruiser Edison Class Warship Pathfinder Class Long-Range Science Vessel Reliant Class Advanced Light Cruiser Scott Class Miracle Worker Cruiser Shran Class Pilot Escort Somerville Class Intel Science Vessel Sutherland Class Advanced Science Vessel   See you out there, thattaway!

  Step into the mirror, Captains – you may never be the same. Star Trek Online is proud to announce Reflections, our newest story update, launching after maintenance today. The Terran Emperor is up to something so dastardly, that Admiral Leeta from the Mirror Universe has come to you for help. Can you save both realities from tyranny? Or will you fall to the darkness on the looking glass’s other side? Reflections stars the returning Chase Masterson, playing Leeta, the role she originated on Deep Space Nine. Leeta has been a thorn in the side of the Federation for years – can those differences be put aside? Can you even trust her? But that’s not all. Reflections also comes with the first content from Star Trek: Lower Decks in STO. You’ll be able to obtain and command the Parliament Class, popularized as the U.S.S. Vancouver in the animated comedy, as well as obtaining some of the weapons used by Starfleet on that show. In our new Task Force Operation, “Operation: Wolf”, you’ll invade the Mirror version of Earth Space Dock, experiencing the tyrannical universe’s version for the very first time. And you’ll be able to purchase the Elite Captain Boost Token, and upgrade your Captain with a new Kit Module Slot, new Device Slot, and new a Trait Slot in both Ground and Space. But that's not all! Starting after maintenance today, you can grab a free pack of Mirror Gear, including the following: Discovery Era Terran Empire Uniform Terran Empire Odyssey Uniform 1 Terran Empire Sonic Phaser High Density Beam Rifle 1 Terran Empire Sonic Phaser Stun Pistol 1 Mirror Universe Agony Rifle 1 Duel Ambush Turrets Kit Module 1 Small XP Boost   This special giveaway will be available until 9/28 at 10am PT.

Captains will also have the option to purchase their remaining progress in the event with Zen. The price for this buyout will prorate, based on the amount of progress a Captain has completed. Mirror Universe Gagarin Warship (T6) The Terran Empire builds the bulk of their fleet to fill the role of aggressive gunships, capable of preemptive strikes and equipped to achieve victory in any conflict their ships inevitably seem to encounter. The Gagarin Warship is no exception to this standard practice, and fills the role with style and ease. With an array of ample weaponry and a sturdy build with solid, mid-range mobility, this Warship is truly capable of acting as a formidable component of any fleet of starships. This ship features a Lieutenant Commander Command Specialist Bridge Officer seat. Details: Tier: 6 Faction: Any Required Rank: Must Complete Tutorial Hull Modifier:  1.25 Shield Modifier:  0.9 Fore Weapons: 4 Aft Weapons: 4 Device Slots: 3 Bridge Officer Stations: 1x Lieutenant Tactical, 1x Commander Tactical, 1x Lt Commander Engineering, 1x Ensign Science, 1x Lieutenant Commander Universal / Command Consoles: 5 Tactical, 4 Engineering, 2 Science (scales with level) Base Turn Rate: 12 Impulse Modifier: 0.18 Inertia: 45 +10 Weapon Power, +10 Shield Power Console - Universal – Destructive Protomatter Wave Projector Can Equip Dual Cannons Starship Mastery Package (Destroyer) Precise Weapon Systems (+Accuracy) Enhanced Weapon Banks (+Critical Severity) Devastating Weaponry (+Critical Chance) Enhanced Weapon Systems (+All Damage) Protomatter Precursor Shields (Starship Trait)   Admiralty Stats: Eng: 43 Sci: 20 Tac: 63 Special: +8 ENG and SCI per TacShip   Console – Universal – Destructive Protomatter Wave Projector The Terran Empire was never successful in perfecting the Genesis project, much to the appreciation of the other denizens of the Mirror Universe. However, there still exists byproducts of that research, including this device which is capable of utilizing massive waves of cohesive radiation to break down matter into its constituent components - a necessary first step in the intended process of Genesis. This weaponized technology targets multiple enemy vessels in a forward-facing cone, ripping their hulls apart over a period of time. If any such infected vessels are destroyed while the effects are present, they will send out a secondary shockwave of radiation which may infect additional foes in their area in a continuing chain reaction. This console additionally provides a boost to All Damage from Energy Weapons, and All Damage Resistance Rating vs. Energy Weapons. It can be equipped on any starship, in any slot, but you may only equip one of these consoles. Starship Trait – Protomatter Precursor Shields After using a Captain Ability, the Front Shield Facing gains Immunity to Damage for 5 seconds. During this time, the front facing also regenerates a modest amount. The Terran Empire experimented with various forms of Protomatter for reactive shielding, forming clumps of undifferentiated carbon in the path of incoming weapons fire. Ultimately this proved inefficient for the fleet due to cost reasons, but the defensive strength can be appealing to an individual ship. This is a special event for our next content drop, and is not part of an Event Campaign. You'll be able to try out all of this new content very soon on PC, and not long after on Console. We hope you enjoy this special event, Captains, and we'll see you in game.   .share-footer a { margin: 20px 10px 10px 0; background: url(https://pwimages-a.akamaihd.net/arc/d7/af/d7afaaa14e96d0d973f76157ae31ec5b1466398539.png) no-repeat 0 0; opacity: .5; display: inline-block; height: 60px; width: 60px; padding: 0; border: 1px solid transparent; -webkit-transition: opacity .3s; transition: opacity .3s; } .share-footer .TI { background-position: 0 20%; } .share-footer .YT { background-position: 0 40%; } .share-footer .YT { background-position: 0 40%; } .share-footer .TW { background-position: 0 60%; } .share-footer .FO { background-position: 0 80%; } .FB:hover { background-position: 100% 0%; } .TI:hover { background-position: 100% 20%; } .YT:hover { background-position: 100% 40%; } .TW:hover { background-position: 100% 60%; } .FO:hover { background-position: 100% 80%; } .share-footer a:hover { opacity: 1; -webkit-transition: opacity .3s; transition: opacity .3s; } $(document).ready( function() { $('.show-lightbox').click(function() { var $el = $(this); var link = $el.data().lightbox; $.colorbox({href: link, maxWidth: '90%', maxHeight: '90%', scalePhotos: true}); }); }); .headerimage { border: 2px inset rgba(255, 255, 255, .05); border-radius: 2em; box-shadow: 5px 5px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, .3); -webkit-transition: all 500ms ease; -moz-transition: all 500ms ease; -ms-transition: all 500ms ease; -o-transition: all 500ms ease; transition: all 500ms ease; }
