    Greetings,

    I need some legit advice, I recently obtained "[3] Infinity T5 ship packs" and "[2] Infinity T6 ship packs". I would like to know what would be the best 'bang' for my buck in the selection? I'll also entertain best lobi ship selections since I have enough for a lobi ship; roughly 1,300 in lobi.

    (p.s. I had bought some 20 key packs to upgrade my jem fighter pol build for those ultimate upgrades so I unlocked a bunch of infinity boxes, lol)

    Hard to say...you looking for something you will fly or something that will get the most EC on the exchange?

    If the former, what ship type(s) do you enjoy to fly?

    My main toon is a tact, and I've full upgraded my Kelvin dread and jem bug ship, both I swap on flying..

    The bug ship is a T5U, I'd like the T6 one but only two on the exchange is like 1.4 to 1.5 billion EC.

    I do have the T5U jem carrier with elite jem bug ships, so perhaps I could get a T6 carrier if it is worth it, but I'm unsure and maybe my T5U can still be viable.

    I was eyeballing the Terran Styx, probably because i like the look and maybe it could be a heavy hitter also, but I'm unsure. It would also allow me to use terran frigates on it too since i do have over 200,000 in fleet Mark's to upgrade to elite frigates.

    I was also eyeballing the TOS dreadnought aswell, been wanting one since its release.

    So many choices, just not sure what to go for.

    The TOS Dreadnought is worth it alone for the console, the NX is also a good ship and has a nice 2pc together with the TOS Dreadnought.

    I’d say get the TOS dreadnaught for the console and it is one of the top tier items ingame, then you could go for the T6 NX for the trait which is useful on rapid fire cannons builds. If you’re looking for a cool ship to fly, I’d recommend picking up the Kelvin timeline connie cause its a t6 connie ^_^

    Really good input guys, greatly appreciate it. I will ponder for sure. Curiously what would I do with the 3 T5 packs? My alts kinda don't need them, so what would they be worth should I sell them for EC?

    Sounds like the T6 votes are TOS Dread, NX Refit, and the JJ Connie.

    I'd take the TOS Dread, your money would be best spent here. As for the T5, your profit would be minimal, I use them for admiralty cards personally.

    So at the moment I grabbed the TOS Dread and the lobi NX Refit... I'm still deciding on my last T6 pack option...
    I'd save it, they might add something in the future you really want. Or if you get hard up for cash, find one selling for the most, then toss it on the exchange.

    I think at one point the coalition disruptors were the best? Bridger will know for sure. I just go with what I think will look best and work best with my setup. I really like the phasers from the Undiscovered pack, they look great on any TMP style ship.

    I'll wait then... I don't want to waste these packs if there is a preferred weapon suite. One of my alts has a coalition ship suite and I was impressed even at the basic not upgraded consoles against simple npcs.
