Each week we’ll roll out a new reward for the Featured Episode “Scylla and Charybdis.” The first completion of this mission on an account this week will grant a Featured Episode Weekly Reward Box. This box gives your choice of an Enhanced Universal Tech Upgrade or a Captain Specialization Point Box, which gives the character who opens it a Specialization Point. The Weekly Reward Box, Tech Upgrade, and Specialization Point Box are all Bound to Account, and may be freely traded between your characters. The Specialization Point Box requires the opening character to be level 50 or above. After the Defense of Bajor, a Tzenkethi Deflector Dish was salvaged and reverse engineered, allowing the allied forces to develop their own version of the technology. It improves your ability to control and subdue your foes, while also leaving a residual scattering field that reduces the target's weapon damage

Priority One: A Roddenberry Star Trek Podcast is one of our favorite podcasts about STO (and everything else Star Trek), and they had the chance this week to sit down with Lead Systems Designer Jeremy "Borticus" Randall. A lot of interesting ground was covered, especially about Re-engineering and the future of the game. Here's their description: This week we Trek Out some new science in the form of Holograms!! — well, sorta! More actors express interest in a Tarantino Star Trek Film, Snoop Dogg is a trekizzy, and Discovery continues to break records. In Star Trek Online, the 8th Anniversary Celebrations continue and we review the latest featured episode — additionally, we’re joined by Systems Designer Jeremy Borticus Randall to discuss the new Re-Engineering system. On Screen is episode 13 of Star Trek Discovery, “What’s Past is Prologue” And, as always, before we wrap up the show,

Still striving to get the greatest performance out of your equipment? This weekend will be the perfect time to apply Tech Upgrades to your gear, as we’re doubling the amount of Technology Points earned from each one applied! From Thursday, February 8th at 9AM PST to February 12th at 10AM PST, every Tech Upgrade used will apply twice as many Technology Points toward your next Upgrade! This in turn reduces the amount of Dilithium that must be spent to reach each Upgrade threshold, allowing Captains additional chances to attain both Mark and Rarity increases on their favored load outs. .share-footer a { margin: 20px 10px 10px 0; background: url(http://images-cdn.perfectworld…157ae31ec5b1466398539.png) no-repeat 0 0; opacity: .5; display: inline-block; height: 60px; width: 60px; padding: 0; border: 1px solid transparent; -webkit-transition: opacity .3s;

Tzenkethi forces loom, threatening life in every corner of known space, even as a dangerous and unknown threat surfaces. Amid this chaos, new technologies are being pursued by Alliance scientists and engineers in hopes of returning peace to the Alpha Quadrant. The latest projects have been exploring techniques common in the shipbuilding practices of species that haven’t typically stood at the forefront of the Alliance. These efforts have produced a new breed of Pilot Escort, representing a unique blend of these technologies. Andorian members of the Federation have offered their superior mobility subsystems and targeting computers, while Lethean neuro-interfaces have been integrated to improve crew response times with other surprising results. Meanwhile, a team of scientists from the Romulan Republic have been studying and restoring ancient Dewan technology found in the ruins beneath the surface of

This new breed of Pilot Escort represents a unique blend of technologies from each of the primary Alliance members, with various projects and subsystems pulled from Andorian, Lethean, and Dewan techniques. The sleek styling, tight maneuverability, and impressive arsenal of offensive capabilities of existing Andorian Escorts have informed a great deal about the core functionality of all of these vessels, as is obviously reflected in these modernized Andorian starships. Players will soon see the addition of Allied Pilot Escorts to the C-Store! These ships will be available individually, as 3-ship Faction Bundles, or as a 9-Ship Megabundle. Each of cutting-edge Escorts possesses impressive and unique capabilities, inspired by their unique lineage. Starfleet officers will gain access to the following starships: Andorian Kuthar Pilot Escort [T6] Andorian Chimesh Pilot Escort [T6] Andorian Thozyn Pilot

The sound of a shattering PADD echoed through the underground offices. Vrosik hardly paid any mind now; she’d become used to the outbursts, the manic intensity, the slumps of dejection, and the heat of anger that cycled quickly through her co-worker. She waited for the string of invectives to die down, then picked up a fresh PADD from a neatly-stacked pile at the corner of her desk, pulled her goggles down over her light-sensitive eyes, and strode into the workspace next door. She extended the PADD silently. Callius, standing in front of his desk, moped silently for a few moments, then snatched the PADD from her hand. He looked down at it and tapped at it a few times, loading in his latest designs from the network and setting it up for use. Finally he mumbled, “Thank you.” Vrosik started to turn and head back to her workspace, then stopped. She wasn’t sure why she did. Callius’ outbursts

On the brink of ultimate disaster, the Iconian Wars came to an abrupt, improbable end. Billions had died across hundreds of worlds and the relentless mass of the Iconian war machine hung over Earth, ready to bring the Federation and her allies to heel. But against all odds and reason, the naive hope for peace prevailed. The exact details of why the Iconians ended their assault are shrouded in mystery. But ultimately the details matter less than the simple fact that here we are, watching a new dawn after a long night of terrible storms. The reversal of fortune sits heavy on those that were there for the Second Battle of Earth, also called the “Battle at Midnight” - a reference to the infamous Doomsday Clock from Earth’s 20th century. That battle claimed hundreds of ships and tens of thousands of lives. The survivors, now some of the most decorated officers in Starfleet, the RRN or the KDF, have the

The 3 piece Bonus from the "Allied Dogfighters" console set now also affects the cooldown of the D.O.M.I.N.O. console. The Andorian Wing Cannons can now be equipped on any Andorian Escort. Foundry: The Lethean and Dewan escorts and the Lukari science ship show up correctly in the Foundry costume editor. Resolved an issue that could cause windows on the new T6 Andorian ships to sometimes float above the ships. Dewan and Lethean Wing Torpedo Platforms now display the correct allegiance when targeted.
