For this weekend only, from now until 9/28 at 10AM PDT Captains can get the Hestia Class for 2500 instead of the normal 3000!
We’re excited to reveal the stats of the awesome new Tier 6 Hestia Class Advanced Escort. This starship is an enhanced version of the Prometheus Class Multi-Vector Advanced Escort. This Tier 6 escort comes equipped with a special console and can unlock a new starship trait at level 5 Starship Mastery. Below are the stats for this new Tier 6 starship and its fleet variant. Both this ship and its fleet variant will be released at the same time.
The Tier 6 Hestia Class Advanced Escort is a heavily modified version of the Multi-Vector Advanced Escort. It has been refitted to take advantage of the Multi-Vector capabilities of its predecessor. The Hestia Class Advanced Escort is the pinnacle of tactical starship design.
This starship features a Lieutenant Commander Engineering/Command specialist seat.

Console – Universal – High-Energy Plasma Expulsers
The Hestia Class Advanced Escort comes equipped with the High-Energy Plasma Expulsers console. The inclusion of special heat sinks and particle exciters allow the ship to vent dangerous plasma fire, causing plasma damage to nearby enemy ships. When separated in Multi-Vector Assault Mode, the separated sections of the ship will all ignite simultaneously. Using Command bridge officer abilities causes this plasma fire aura to "flare up" and cause even more damage to nearby enemies.
This console provides a passive bonus to plasma and tetryon damage resistance as well as a small boost to Weapon Power.
This Console Mod can be equipped only on Advanced Escorts Variants, in any console slot. You may only equip one of these mods.
Numerical Superiority [T6]
After achieving level 5 in the Advanced Escort [T6] starship mastery, you will unlock the Numerical Superiority starship trait. While slotted, you gain a small damage bonus that increases as more allies target your targeted foe.
