Even if the stats are "bad" a free ship is a free ship and if nothing else it's another one for the Admirality

"Free stuff. I'm here for it. Everytime."

Console is called "Console Universal - Subspace Fracture Tunneling Field" it's part of the ancient obelisk technology set which is now a 4 piece set. 4 piece set is as follows. Set 4: Automated Interception Swarm Obelisk Set Bonus Creates a Obelisk Swarmer every 1 sec with up to 8 of them flight at the same time.

You can also use the hoverboards on your colony holding map, makes getting around to do the projects (mining, batteries etc) easier/faster to get to.

As someone who has the original Obelisk Carrier from back when you could get it from Sphere of Influence I'm quite looking forward to this one. Hopefully they've changed the seating to be a bit more viable in the modern game! Gotta have at least that 3 slot tac seat these days!

I was very sceptical of the Cnidarian Defender. I laughed when I first saw it. However it turned out to be one of the most powerful free ships given away IMO and is great fun. Just launch its console and watch all the bad guys blow up. It's that simple. 😃 Maybe this carrier will be like the Jarok Alliance Carrier which was praised when it was released. Also a free ship. The previous Alliance ship, the Rex Pilot Escort is great fun as well. So lets see what we get I'm looking forward to it. Also it was broaght to my attention how the new summer event ship resembles the Normady from the Mass Effect franchise. A bigger brother perhaps 🙂

I haven’t been to the STO summer event in a long time.

i relly hope that this carrier has a good pet bassed consials or sime kinde of onbord wep consial like a lance or something and im relly happy to finly see a t6 varrient of the ship

I'm still waiting for event to get a ship upgrade token so I finalize my Defiant Class USS Cobra

i usually don't end up getting credit for anything done at risa but i really want that ship

The dyson carrier was fun i hope this version is a improvement.

I'm disappointed the Andorian Kit Frame and the Elysian Set have disappeared from the Event Store but the new Kits/Frame look interesting. The new ship looks nice and it is a FREE T6 SHIP, any FTP players definitely should finish the event to get that. For those players who are wanting to skip out because they are not interested in the ship: remember what has happened with the ships the last few years. Also, a Floater makes getting around on the island much easier. Get at least a basic one to make everything go faster even if you are not interested in the Floater specific events.

Thank you for these updates! You rock!

nice - i have lots of favors saved up - the new kits sound cool. Thanks for keeping us up to date!! (if you have lots of alts - just run the daily on all of them once per day - takes about 30 minutes for about 8 toons - that's a quick 400 favors per day.)

Ah, Risa... fun times.

Well, the old Obelisk Swarmers packed quite a punch for regular content and advanced TFOs, so I kinda like this one coming out

The Risian Kit ∞ frame, every summer event kit you use add 10% Ranged Weapon Damage on top of the 20%. Vovin will probably a 3/3 but i hope it 4/2 with a decent Engineering console slots like the Lobi Advanced Obelisk Carrier has 5 Engineering console slots.

the Obelisk Swarmer pets from the T5 are a decent hanger pet

Would be nice if it were a 5-5 layout on the vovin. When Risa needed the terraforming avatar the most it vanished to play baseball.

Ship looks cool enough. I like this event cus it's bottom line quick and easy for a ship. Never do the rest it never interests me much. But in jetpack and out free ship is great. And I've never had a good carrier

Im doing the bare minimum in every event. Doesn't matter if i want to or not. Never ever had any regrets after wards. I mean in maximun it's 15 minutes a day. Mostly faster like red alert or summer/winter event. Rewards are just to good to skip events in my opinion.

I was on Risa yesterday (6/25/24) on console & the ship is already parked there... it's pretty big

I love the summer events, never gets old. I wish it lasted longer. I think some events should be. Give you a break from the normal stuff. Could allow people to earn a few favors a day and catch up on all the stuff in the store.

Cool but same question over on trizander wuy don't we have the kelvin reputation yet I mean cool kelvin jump suit cool but I'm looking for the gear weapons ship weapons ship shilds to warp then the concels and the omni beam im Gunning for ya Duel beam banks yaa would be good and a good better torpedoes

Yaahoo gotta get that Dance Emote. 😊

That is a very nice free ship. I'm excited. GOGO Jetpack-o-hoverloop! It's a bit sad that everything is about stats in this kind of games. Especially in STO where it doesn't even make sense, unless you're parsing. Space-barbie ftw 😎

thank Stu

started this game short while before the gamma recruit event so this will be my first summer event hope i like it as much as the winter event thought the event hoping comes soon is the temporal recruit event so i can make my last recruit character to get all the recruit unlocks

My character has been getting his summer bod ready just for this! 😂

Do love the summer event❤

I'm hoping the race is the same as last year (jetpack)

I'm ready to grind a new reputation system

At least it is a good-looking ship. I have the original so will now have the new version. I kinda enjoyed the original myself. Hopefully, it will turn a bit better this time around.

This will be my first summer event since returning for the last winter one. If you can put together a video on the best events to play I would greatly appreciate it. More specifically one for efficiency.

Dam, that thing looks beautiful 😍

If I'm not mistaken, you can do any of the activities to get the daily done

To use a carrier effectively, you have to have the skills setup, the Doffs the right traits and the right pets and consoles. That's s lot of expensive ducks to get in a row. The big advantage they have (not big enough imo) is they can engage targets over 10km using pets, I'd like to increase the trait and module coverage (for pets) out to 15-20km or the entire map in order to give them a niche that quite frankly they should already have.

I'm hoping the free Advance Obelisk Swarmers that you can get from the 'Dyson Mission - A Step Between Stars' work on this ship also.

Yeah, there really isn't anything but cosmetics for the ships in the event store...unlike the winter one where it's pretty much a necessity for anyone who wants to play as Breen

What really gets me is that this thing looks too much like the Aspero for it to be an accident.

Cant you put a kit mod on each of your away team/Boff after upgrading them with a Boff train token, and in turn have each of them use a different element and then reap the rewards?

Playing a carrier is not about how they blast away enemies it's about swarming the enemy with in trillion gob flies and their pointy needles of death.

Will progress in this add to the Special Events Campaign progress?

Hi how much does the buyout normaly cost? thanks

I still got 30K from last year, Never thought about selling it, I always give it away as it take up to many slots. :0)

I have been doing this for 11 years, can I survive doing the event on all 5 alt accounts one last time?

Who was insulted as being a "despicable Mellanoid Slime Worm", and how did he react?

What character level can I start doing events like this?

probably another 3-3 sci carrier tbh

Its free and sexy I will not care if the stats are bad

anything on a buyout?

It's pronounced Vovin...😂

Gonna name mine the most offensive name I can th I nk of and it will be Rogal Dorn. I never said which kind of offensive Edit: forgot to say for the emperor

The grind to get the currency is ridiculous, the winter one is worse cause of the multiple currencies (targ ear muffs are the bane of my existence)

Honestly if I can’t buy it out I’ll probably just pass on the event

its a matter of opinion that carriers are "not as good" what are you trying to do? min/maxing DPS is ridiculous in this game. Nobody cares if you can solo ICE in under a minute, and your ruining it for other people who actually want to play the TFO, get a life.

you missed the single most important part. Beach outfit event time! Bikinis and trunks!
