COMMAND THE SHRIKE!

Blasting off it's debut in Star Trek: Picard, the powerful and dangerous Shrike is coming to the Infinity Crafting Packs!
By Ambassador Kael November 15, 2023, 09:00 AM



The Shrike Intel Juggernaut [T6] is a deliberate predator, careful and precise. It takes its time with defeated foes, picking away at them piece by piece. With tremendous hull strength and diverse equipment, it can afford to wait. The Portal Weapon captured from Daystrom Station gives it unprecedented mobility for a ship its size. While the earth bird requires a thorny bush to provide its larder, the ship which bears its name fills hard vacuum instead, pecking the wrecks to grow its eclectic mélange of weapons systems and technologies. The infamous changeling Vadic helmed the great beast for a time, but its current ownership remains a mystery, and a reminder that the universe is vaster and more varied than the power games of nations. Individuals with patience, cunning, and opportunity can and do make tremendous contributions to the course of history.

Shrike Juggernaut Array

Deals Polaron damage to target Foe and sends out an aoe ripple around it, damaging nearby enemy vessels as the ripple passes through their ship. The farther the ripple spreads, the more damage it deals.



Console - Universal – Portal Device

Activating the Portal Device creates a portal in front of your ship and a portal in front of the target ship. The portals connect two points in space, allowing ships and weapons fire to pass through. Ships can use the portals to extend their weapons range, attack from a new direction, or transit from point to point. Placing the portal in front of a ship can cause the ship to accidentally pass through, placing it squarely in the firing arc of your ship. The recharge time of this device is based on how long it was active; the less time spent active, the shorter the recharge time. This also means it cannot be impacted by most effects that modify recharge time of universal consoles, such as the Unconventional Systems trait.


The Console additionally provides Increased Damage of all types and Increased Maximum Hull Capacity.

Tooltip:

Targets foe

Creates a linked pair of Portals for 45 sec, one in front of target vessel and one in front of your vessel.
Most attacks and ships can pass through the Portals, allowing weapons to exceed their normal range.

Starship Trait – Eclectic Collector of Armaments

After achieving level 5 in your Shrike Intel Juggernaut, you will unlock the Eclectic Collector of Armaments starship trait. While this trait is slotted, dealing damage with different kinds of weapons provides stacking bonuses to all Damage and to the Recharge Rate of Capital Ship Innate weapons such as the arrays found on Juggernauts and Dreadnoughts. The categories for this effect are:

• Beams
• Cannon
• Torpedoes
• Experimental Weapons
• Capital Ship Innate Weapons
• Universal Consoles

From November 16th at 8am PT to November 23rd at 12pm PT, we are running a promotion that will provide an additional bonus when opening a Research and Development Pack or a Duty Officer Pack!

[Bridger]

[Jestersmith]

Mentioned User Bridger

So essentially looks great not top class meta ship but will do a job for you if you get it

Might be my next years reward ship we will see i think i have a promo reward will check but i am still undecided on what i want with that so

[Noram]

I think the most interesting thing about it is the tech they built for the portal.

[Petrarch]

It's not one for me, but while I'll admit the console does sound interesting I wouldn't bag it just for that. Next year's promo reward is the first time I'll need to have a think about what I'm after but I'd lean towards the Friendship Class.

[WelshAvenger]

I wonder if they're going to give it the awesomely sinister audio from the TV show. I'm gonna pass for sure but it does mean that we're one step closer to the Duderstadt.

[Sorotia]

It's the most agile juggernaut the game has so there is that I guess but honestly I'd rather get the Vaadwaur or World Razer
