@@MXPHOENIX the Gagarin and Shepard are essentially the same thing. Inquiry has slightly better stats and slightly different BOFF seating, but that's it.
Great, concise video, thank you for that! I'm currently agonizing over which T6 ship to get next and a video like this is exactly what I needed. I did have my choices whittled down to 3 but after watching this I'm thinking I need to give the Titan and Buran another close look. Side note: Don't know how much you care about such things but Buran is pronounced as 'Bur-anne' and the Vizier is pronounced 'Vuh-zear'.
Both are great, but I think the Titan has more versatility than the Buran. Just my two cents. I do have reviews of both these ships. I have trouble pronouncing words, among other speech problems. It’s been something I’ve been working on. Thank you for letting me know. 😃
Great to see some love for the Steamrunner, it's been a personal favorite since its introduction. I've always found it to be fairly robust for an escort, and at the time was a nice upgrade to the also highly enjoyable patrol escort line. My main tac continues to fly it despite it no longer being top tier, just because it's so much fun. :)
It might be cheating saying this, since it's a legendary, but the miracle-worker Connie light-cruiser from the 10th Anniversary Bundle might be my new fav. I shelled out the cash for that pack and while most of ships where okay, that one stood out to me. To bad there aren't many light-cruisers in the game.
I apologize for the delay. Work has been pretty busy for me. Which Star Cruiser are you talking about? The Odyssey Star Cruiser or the space whale star cruiser?
@@Kahless02 I would go with a tank build, since ENG's are designed for that sort of thing. I'll come up with a build, but it'll take me some time. I'm not the best person when it comes to builds.
I know what you mean. The Mudd store is a huge joke that is meant to piss us off. I was lucky and got it for about 2k zen. Keep your eye open for when it goes on sale next.
I went back to playing STO n I bought the Hestia Class. I love It's maneuvering capabilities. But I have yet how to figure out how to do the saucer separation technique.
@@MXPHOENIX Fleet Gargarin is my go-to ship for my primary account. Good seating, good overall performance, can do almost anything you want (except hangar pets). It's like a more offensive version of the Buran.
I haven't been online in a long time so watching these videos is enjoyable. my gaming drive crashed and took all my steam games with them. COVID has made it hard to find the time and net to redownload everything. i tried reinstalling this game but my PC still thinks its on the dead drive and wont run. so ive been putting it off fixing but i wanna jump back into my fav ship: the Command Nattlecruiser.
If you cannot access the files on the original drive, then you will have to "uninstall" from steam and then re-install STO. A pain the behind, but that's the immediate fix. If you can still access the files, move them over to a a new drive and have steam point to the files in the new drive. I hope that helps.
The Titan is fantastic the science mode salvo timed with normal torp salvo does massive damage since the salvo toros take down shields Iv killed 4 or 5 bird of preys with the first salvos and phasers at once. Amazing ship
I've been rocking a Quad dual Phaser Defiant class with each one a different type including disruptor for shields and plasma for continual damage. with the buff set up I am one shoting anything below my level. To be clear, not saying this is any way a be all/end all but goram is it fun as hell zipping through the battle field death lazering ships.
You might have a stroke watching my videos if that bothers you. I have difficulty pronouncing words, especially those that I've never heard before. Please don't hold it against me.
@@Stronghand-yw1lk It's not that uncommon. There are a number of words these days that people are more likely to have encountered as a printed word only and not heard spoken. Vizier, while a title or political rank, is not something that's going to come up much outside of a period drama.
@@andrewtaylor940 true. I have a friend in medical school training to be a neurosurgeon and he pronounces scythe as though it's skythe....I grind my teeth every single time.
I'd stick with my lovely old Aventine/Vesta 😀 (if I was still playing). It looks like STO continue (as they have done for years now) to issue more and more ludicrously OP ships. There's something definitely wrong with a game's balance when a single player ship can easily destroy a fleet of Borg cubes....
The vesta class is a great ship for sure. I’m not sure about OP ships, but they have been releasing ludicrously priced ships in the last few years. I know players like Auggie can do over 500K dps. I’m still trying to break over 65k dps. Lol
@@MXPHOENIX I went science. Mainly cuz I always go for combat in most games and wanted to try something new. I have no idea what I am doing but UA-cam is helping. I started searching what ship cuz I just learned about the event campaign and saw I could get a t6 ship or two. Also it is nice to have a long term goal.
@@jovanni_orb5116 I love my SCI toon. She’s my current heavy hitter. SCI can do epg (exotic particle generator), paired with torpedos makes it a really fun build. You can check out my video on the Scryer science vessel (I think it’s part 2?) and I show my build for that. Another person who you need to check out is Augmented Dictator Games. He knows more about builds than I do.
Well, I guess that depends on what build you are running. If you are using an epg/torp build, the pathfinder or titan class is good. For threat tanking, the buran class is great for that.
Did you miss the start of the video where I state that I primarily play as a fed. If there was a kdf/rom/dom version of that ship, it is also included.
In terms of performance, I found the inquiry to be a monster.
I haven't flown it, so that's why its not in the list. Looking back, I probably should have been mentioned that.
@@MXPHOENIX the Gagarin and Shepard are essentially the same thing. Inquiry has slightly better stats and slightly different BOFF seating, but that's it.
@@mrtencza good to know.
Great content as always! Gagarin is my favorite on the Federation side.
I've trying to fly every ship again, but its been hard as of late. I have almost 0 time to myself.

Yeah, I only got it maybe a year ago, but I enjoy flying it. I may not fly it all the time, but I switch to it from time to time.
@@MXPHOENIX I was under the impression that the Alita class is already the T6 variant on the Steamrunner. Am i wrong?
No, the Alita is the T6 version of the Akira.
love the dauntless for sci , its my go to ship, i got it originally off the c-store , loved it so much that i had to upgrade to t6 fleet upgraded
Nice vd mate keep bringing them
That's the plan! ;)

I got flight deck carrier and that ship is awesome. My main go to ship and good for pvp
@@carrzabout1 Yeah, it's probably one of the best, if not the best, carriers in the game.
1. Ra'nodaire Support Carrier
2. NX Retrofit
3. S31 Destroyer
4. Vor'ral/Vor'Kang Battlecruiser
5. Eisenberg Starcruiser
Thank you for sharing your top 5 ships!
Any suggestions on a good build for a T5X Star Cruiser? I've had a soft spot in my heart for it since Beta.

I know what you mean. The Mudd store is a huge joke that is meant to piss us off. I was lucky and got it for about 2k zen. Keep your eye open for when it goes on sale next.
its on sale right now on consoles, don't know about PC though.
What music was used for this video?
I have no idea. I will have to dig through and see what I used. It’s a royalty free music though.
@@MXPHOENIX Thanks!

In order to use the multi vector mode you need to purchase the T5 zen store version. That ship comes with the multi vector assault mode.
*Gagarin
*Titan
*Inquiry
*Insert legendary preference #1
*Insert legendary preference #2
For me these were the most consequential new ships in 2020.
I've had a few people that the Gargarin is a really good ship. I'm gonna have to dust it off and start flying her again.
@@MXPHOENIX Fleet Gargarin is my go-to ship for my primary account. Good seating, good overall performance, can do almost anything you want (except hangar pets). It's like a more offensive version of the Buran.
@@MXPHOENIX for sure! There are arguments to be made for it (Fleet + "X" upgrade) vs. the Inquiry. These two are dps kings.
Which ship is at the 0:36 second mark?
That would be the Avenger Battlecruiser class.

Sounds like a good platform for double spread attacks.

@@MXPHOENIX very, cool my friend, very cool!
AIR-heart; Vi-ZEER. A look at a dictionary will provide the pronunciation, meaning and source of the word. Learn words and prosper!
Minor critique. Vizier is Viz-Ee-er or Viz-ee-air. Not Visor. Visor is eyewear. Vizier is a political rank.
Thank you! I appreciate you telling me this. When I do the review for this ship, I will get the name correct. :)
