STAR TREK ONLINE | The little ship that could.. Tholian Meshweaver.. !

Tholian Meshweaver
Star trek online _ mirror universe – Tholian Meshweaver

 

When you think Tholian’s you think to the time when the USS Enterprise in The Original series is stuck, suspended, trapped as a group of Tholian Meshweavers, spinning an energy spiders web to trapped its prey.. also goes for the Constitution class USS Defiant in the Mirror Universe  Enterprise series..

The “Tholian Meshweaver” Tier five escort, is an interesting ship, in which is small and tough despite its smaller hulling rating base of 27,000 given that you up graded the Meshweaver to a T5-U the Hull rating increase to between 31,000 to 36,000 from levels fifty to sixty.. The Tholian Meshweaver Escort Class is essentially a cannon, turrets, torpedo ship, with beams instead of Cannons… of having four forward and three rear weapons consoles..

Despite its size, it has many advantages, it’s quick, in very much so like the Defiant, small but with a powerful heavy punch with plus fifteen in weapons power with a base turn on 17 degrees per second…  the ship is clearly a Tactical and science ship with its four Tactical, three science and two engineering..  given it one LT. Commander Tactical, One Commander Tactical, One Lt. engineering, One Commander Science..

As it’s upgrade it comes with increase in Hull rating base, with an additional Tactical console… With its abilities packaging.. Precise weapons systems, tactical manoeuvring, enhanced weapons systems, devastating weaponry… with the Meshweaver it’s best to maximised on the science consoles has it provides that defensive shielding..  also the ship is a mirror lock box ship..

STAR TREK ONLINE | the new Fleet T6 Jupiter carrier class … it’s like the Battlestar Galatica…!!

STAR TREK ONLINE | the new Fleet T6 Jupiter carrier class
STAR TREK ONLINE | the new Fleet T6 Jupiter carrier class

 

 

If you wondering over the last few months, Star Trek Online.. Have been in development of a new carrier… The first introduction of creating this carrier, that the guys at Star Trek Online  started to developing process through a process from various  concept sketches… then eventually gets filtered out one by one into the finally design into the eventually the Jupiter Class..

The Jupiter Class is basically a carrier class, in nature… With the same Hulling rating alike as the Obelisk class but in more with look of the Battlestar and a star destroyer the design of the Jupiter is beautiful and sleek, it’s after section is like inspired of the Battlestars in Battlestar Galatica. The saucer section is integrated into the engineering section of the hull…..

As with three forward and rear weapons in the Jupiter load out, its best to have either as a completely as a beam and torpedo boat or in its placement of forward Dual Cannons and rear turrets with keeping your distance in mind away from your target.. orthough it comes with three forward and rear weapons consoles….  the ship is basically science and engineering heavy with four consoles in with three tactical console.. as retrospect of the bridge station seating..

The “tier six Jupiter carrier Class” also is very Engineering and science console heavy with four engineering and four science.. in which will give you some heavy modifications to or hulling and shielding or with some other console modifications in which has three tactical consoles.. The Jupiter comes with plus ten in Shielding also Auxiliary Power aswell, in which a fleet warp core with Auxiliary to weapons system will help in providing the more decrease in the cool time in weapons..

At first when I tried out the Fleet T6 Jupiter class in a combat instance with dual cannons and turrets It was heavy to manoeuvre around to focusing on the target, having without using the fighters, in going doing the basics with the bridge officers selected abilities.. Having noticing its heaviest like the Jupiter is heavy like the Battlestar Galatica, it’s the heaviest more than the Odyssey, The Catian and The Obelisk Carrier class….. so in the heaviest I install the most basics beam arrays and torpedoes in which it works in keeping a reasonable distance to the target, also slowly rotating the ship around in keeping my shields fresh without being been drained constantly one side..

Traditionally the Jupiter is a Carrier It’s loaded up with two fighter consoles so in its traditionally comes with Peregrine fighters, but  later accessorising it with Callisto light fighters in three variants will give you that advantage.. also it’s a homage  to in  named after one of the senior officers of the Ambassador class Enterprise C in that Next Generation episode “ Yesterday’s Enterprise”..

Also given the Tier Six not the fleet one comes with a Fleet Coordination Matrix Universal Console.. in this console gives you an increase advantages of Damage and accuracy also you team will be that recipient temporary of abilities of increase hulling points and passively accuracy and hit points..

The Jupiter is a great ship, but keeping the distance away from the target gives you that advantage like you’re flying the Battlestar Galactica like how Admiral Adama.. or Husker did..

STAR TREK ONLINE | piloting skillset ships vessels… a prelude…

Via -Star Trek Online - tier six pilot ship
Star Trek Online – tier six pilot ship

 

Coming soon on Star Trek Online is the “Pilot Ships” soon to be leaving your shipyard.  In this the Tier six ship is more basically design towards catering your Piloting skillset that you ascertain in between the piloting and command skill tree.. but this is more about Piloting  around so you could gain the tactical advantagement to out maneuvers you opponent…

With the Piloting Ships and your piloting skillset that you gain from your tree… you will ascertain with some interesting Flying moves like how Commander Tom Paris would do on USS Voyager with Rolls, dodging in by double tapping the keyboard with different selected keys or using the User interface for those moves as you used on the Piloting Maneuvers…

As each Piloting Manoeuvrings, there are used like on the same way of a drifting car or fighter aircraft in a dogfight doing some serious maunvering

Maunvering with AFTERBURNERS… With binary tapping of the W key will gives you a massive thrust of velocity in which will gives you that rapid escape out from a situation that it may arise not your favour but as you escape with that move it’ll give you a small dosage of these three abilities of immunity degree of damage…. As for the DOUBLE ROLLS, of binary tapping the keys of D or A will allow you to avoid a situation that you may not like… As for the RETROROCKETS, binary tapping the S key will allow your ship to move backwards like as an aircraft’s Air brake been turn on to maneuvers backwards to avoid a forwarding situation in combat..

Looking the Pilot Ships scale wise seemingly like on a larger version of the advanced Tactical escort.. Like the Defiant or Sao Paulo class.. this class can use Dual cannons also thinking it has the same weapons consolement of three rear and four five forward as like the Battlecruiser class of the Avenger class series..  all factions with this ship class has these abilities provide below…  it should be interesting to see if comes with a customising look of the ship to give it an advantage.. also its other advantages with its upcoming abilities.. And Traits..

As of the bridge seating is very hybrid in with the Command Tactical-Pilot Bridge officer seating..  But looking at the arrangement below it’s either a Science, Engineering ship….
