Winter Event 2024 Announcement and Eleos Intel Scout First Impressions | Star Trek Online

[@mikefalderoff8236]

I love the breakdown of the ship and its abilities/console. I watched Spencer’s video but you brought up a few things that he didn’t…it helps to listen to multiple channels

[@Arrowthorne]

Woo it's a Scout ship, we need more of those, think there's only 6 in game! The console looks interesting, glad they're trying new things, and the Trait seems to be a support/Shield Tank hybrid, bit leery on that. Wonder if this is an attempt to make Shields relevant again, hope so. The Commander Intel and LtC Miracle Worker seating is going to make it a nice DEW boat or DewSci boat. Over all looks to be a nice little ship, especially since its free.

[@KkevrockK]

What’s really needed is content that makes ships like this useful. Every single mission boils down to do as much damage as possible while surviving…and this ship isn’t it.

[@jaredjohnson6714]

I’m still waiting for them to attempt a universal Specialization seat. Have us pick which one we want😂

[@LMG1792]

Favorite event of the year. Don't really care about the reward ( I'm definitely getting it) but the event itself is just my favorite one.

[@ItsTheNatMan]

Blazin Bev’s Battle Bus!

[@gorillazzilla]

It's also based off of very old STO concept art.

[@furonguy42]

The Eleos was certainly a surprising ship for the Winter Event, given that there are new canon Breen ships and every Breen ship in STO thus far has been released via the Winter Event, but I'm certainly not complaining, this will certainly be a lot of fun for getting screenshots with and that Universal Console sounds like it could be great on more Energy Weapon-focused ships like the Arbiter or Excelsior II.

[@barrybend7189]

I would have been surprised if we got the Anteres from Discovery season 5.

[@TheRealSoundRAGE]

The Eleos was originally a concept ship for STO. Only difference was the lack of a rollbar.

[@matthewkeeling886]

No reason not to get the nicest looking ship Picard ever came up with... it is free after all. It even has an interesting set of specs. Though, since I already have a character who uses the Hysperian's trait/console to buff Disruptors using sci abilities I might be a bit biased there.

[@jodytollefson7187]

LOL when i first saw this ship on Pecard season 3 i thought it was a Steamrunner i might have some fun with this ship.

[@vorlon72]

Kind of hoping it might have been the Obena class but hey ho it's still a free ship.

[@SwordOkami]

What a nice scout ship! Would be a shame... if someone (with a Shrike).... ....threw it into a Titan-A!

[@marvinmcmartianpants9542]

Does the buff from the console scale with the amount of power you transfer? The plus 10 in shield and engine could help then right? A quick little ship with 4 forward facing weapons is spretty sweet I think. New player >.> no idea what's going on.

[@LoneWolf0397]

I wonder if the NAR registration will be for all ships or specifically for this ship

[@J4CKC00P3R]

Having a ship from one of the new shows be an event ship instead of yet another promo ship is always a win Side note: I think this sort of ship would’ve been a much better look for the La Sirena from s1 and 2, as it actually looks like it belongs in Star Trek while staying away from most of the standard Starfleet looks

[@bryanabbott6169]

I was wondering when they'd add the ship the Crushers used in Picard Season 3, but this is the best way, considering it's not a high-end ship in the show.

[@Gray137]

I think I get the weirdness, it's meant rush up from behind, throw your kit, get the initial attention and leave immediately

[@savagebear4374]

Ushaan-tor looks like an interesting weapon.

[@wilburwhateley4626]

Are there any must have or at least desirable items from the winter event store?

[@TJMODLA]

Ahh. A Red Angel Suit...Snowman version.

[@Blutaar42]

oh wow a fed ship. we haven't had one of those in an event in a while. Jokes aside I still think he Winter Event would be great to get a more thematically appropriate ship. Breen or Andorian would fit the winter theme way better but I guess that's just me thinking. Also don't get me wrong. Any free ship is appreciated

[@chrismills2439]

kinda wish it had an experimental weapon slot

[@Stu1701]

It's a Scout Vessel, not a Science Destroyer.

[@2Scribble]

It's hilarious how much more interesting this thing is than the Obena 😂

[@JWJTRAINOR]

What is an isomag?

[@gmradio2436]

An engineering console that boost weapon power and damage. The current META for most DPS races. It is craftable, so not as big as an investment.

[@andrewtaylor940]

is this the first Starfleet Ship we have gotten from teh Winter event?

[@Stu1701]

Second. The Eisenberg was also a Winter Event prize.

[@eatatjoecs]

Any videos on the best ships from the massive 50% off sale?

[@Stu1701]

I know CasualSAB has a running tier list of the Mudd's ship bundles. I wanted to get one my own ranking of them done for this sale, I just haven't had the time. But I can give some recommendations: - The Fighter Bundle has the Deimos in it, having Immolating Phaser Lance unlocked on your whole account is really nice. Other ships in there are decent playable ship if you like small, nimble Escorts. - The Pack of Dread - Through the Ages bundle is nice because that has the Atlas in it, so account unlock DPRM. And the Temporal Heavy Dreadnoughts are fun for their novelty. - Disco Infero bundle is your chance to get Ruin of Our Enemies on account unlock. And the Disco D7 and Disco Connie are really fun to play. - The Into Darkness and Beyond bundle might be one of the best values in terms of the number of unique ships you can get because one of the choice options contains the Kelvin Connie, D4x, and T'Laru all in a single option. These are 3 totally differnt ship with totally different stats. Usually when multiple ships are combined like this they're just the same ship, stats-wise, just made for different factions. - If you like Torpedo builds, the Secret Intel bundle is worth looking at for some of the traits you can get there.

[@eatatjoecs]

@@Stu1701 Thank you so much for posting that, watching CasualSAB's video now :)

[@mexyreast433]

Is it just me, or should this ship also be available as a Flydeck Carrier Hanger pet?

[@CF4herty]

can some1 tell me if i have to do the event on every character or just one?

[@gmradio2436]

Most commonly it is an account unlock. So one character.

[@R2N81]

This year STO was extremely generous.🤔I'm really concerned about 2025, because this much good and service supply for free could end up with high inflation next year.🤭🤣

[@brianrichey7509]

Yes Moopsy combat pet, take my money and give me.

[@Xandras25]

I've wondered how Beverly got such a big ship for her personal use.

[@WalterDWormack214]

You really REALLY need to CUT DOWN on the.SUGAR and CAFFEINE partner!

[@acereporter73]

*Moopsy!* 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁

[@mikefalderoff8236]

It would nice if they came up with a science equivalent of an isomag, since there already is an equivalent tactical console (forget what they’re called off-hand)

[@omegcrash]

SO awesome

[@davidkaye8712]

Why does your avatar quiver like it is about to have a nervous breakdown :) The console being slot specific is very interesting. And the ship looks like a good little control platform.

[@Stu1701]

Its just an movement animation for when I'm talking. Someone said it was distracting a while ago, so I toned it down to what it is now.

[@willmc8310]

Console has a problem ATM 😢

[@Stu1701]

yeah, the blog was updated to say there was a technical issue for Playstation

[@TheMythriel]

😎

[@Farlas816]

Certified Picard disliker but i"ve been hoping for this ship, neat we're getting it for free

[@CaptainJasonC]

Will we ever get the obena i mean seriously??

[@Stu1701]

Hope so!

[@failomas1443]

Honestly i like the design of the Picard season 3 ships even the TITAN-A it's TITAN not ENTERPRISE that is not a Flagship. But isn't a small one? Like really small. But it's free not complain too much

[@Stu1701]

Yeah, it's pretty small. Pundus talked about it on Bluesky, which I covered in the video.

[@MechZilla]

Well, now I know what to blow lobi on. Been playing for a long time, not much else for me to grab that I actually give a crap about. And this way, I can avoid the whole event! Talk about win/win.

[@epochcatharsis129]

Remember last years winter event ship? Haven't see a new build on that one since it launched. Ah yes more trash to keep the insanity going forward.

[@Geth7777]

Moopsy

[@lesigh1749]

Ship info is no use, I cant even figure out how to take part in the events. piles of snowballs I cant seem to do anything but take, snowmen I cant seem to fight. Instructions nowhere to be found.

[@Stu1701]

to take part in the event, do any of the activities on in the Winter Wonderland once a day. You can see your progress in the Events tap (if you're on PC, press J)

[@rogeryoung9934]

PASS.

[@Spotcats]

lol ofc the STO devs would be on bluesky. "It's like poetry. It rhymes." - George Lucas

[@DrakeHunter324]

Doesn't seem terribly useful, and I can't see the console actually working as intended. I'll get it anyway as I like the winter event.

[@Stasisofseasons]

So my buddy bought out with the lobi but we had to do one of them so he had enough! And IDK this ship is way smaller than anyone thought it was, we can't tell if it's to scale because I have a connie 3 so we sat at the San Fran ship yard and me bringing in my ships, I normally like small ships, it's smaller than my Terran eagle, smaller than Defiants. SO I'm just letting people know how small it is. I'll likely do everything because why not nothing else going on... but I hate hate ground stuff and Q's winter wonderland is annoying at best. Either way might be an interesting ship for me but my buddy was not cool with it.

[@jmg4208]

Ship is very mid at best. Scout ship with 3 forced seat, MW2nd, shield heal trait & weapon console. Nothing help space magic for ftp, unfortunately. Ship seem designed by someone who like DEW support build & push it on science. Beside RP, in tfo I don't see much use.

[@noneofyourbusiness43]

What do I have to do to get the dang thing? I'm already sick of the treacly Q winter wonderland crap

[@joovannyy]

Nice video but the prizes are at most mediocre 🫤
