    Hi

    In my never ending quest to make the best first purchase, I was wondering what people thought of this ship. I figure between this ship and the free T5 ship when I make level 50, would give me a interesting first end game experence. Once I get enough fleet credits, I would look into a fleet cruiser of some sort.

    Thanks for any advice you can offer.

    I think it depends a lot on your career and play style. For a tactical it's probably not ideal, where as an engineer or a science could have a lot of fun with it.

    As someone who likes to do damage, it's a dreadful tub, and one that's pretty ugly too.

    So this would be a poor choice for a carrier?
