Test Your Ship Builds on Tribble!


Coming soon to Star Trek Online’s Tribble Test Server is an all new space map to test your skills in space combat!
Starbase 234 – Rebuilt and Reborn!
After its devastation by the Heralds in the Iconian War, Starbase 234 has been rebuilt from the ground up to once again serve as a training ground for Alliance starships! This improved Starbase makes extensive use of holographic technology to allow captains to engage in simulated combat in a wide variety of situations.
This extensive training ground is intended to ensure that Starship Captains and their crew can safely become experienced against the many foes in the galaxy, to ensure they’re as prepared as can be. For captains wishing to appear on the frontlines of the most dangerous battles, the simulated enemies on this map can become as daunting as you feel worthy of challenging, to ensure that the Captain and their crew are up to do whatever it takes to survive!
After entering the system, you will be able to hail Starbase 234 to setup what enemies you wish to face against, to learn more about this system, to access your bank, or more!

The Voth Evolve in the Infinity Lock Box!


The Infinity Lock Box, containing prizes from nearly all previously-retired Lock Boxes, will be available again for an appearance beginning on PC on August 8th and on Xbox One and PlayStation 4 in September. During this time, enemies defeated on both Ground and Space maps will have a small chance of dropping one of these prize-filled packages.
This run of the Infinity Lock Box will feature the addition of the Emperor’s Lockbox contents, Tier 6 versions of the Voth Flight-Deck Cruiser and Voth Science Vessel, and more! Continue reading further on for the full details on these new and updated starships!

Command a Romulan Ship on Any Captain!


Very soon, Captains among the ranks of the Federation, Klingon, and Dominion factions will be gaining access to most of the Romulan Republic’s fierce fleet of starships. This includes many legendary Warbirds, and a number of other Romulan starships. Though these vessels have been restricted up until now, the galaxy is heading in a direction of increased cooperation and sharing of technology, and the Republic has been benefiting from those arrangements for some time. Their leadership has decided it’s time enough to return the trust that has been shown to them, and allow their trusted allies the opportunity to test out their Singularity technology and specialized starships.
We will be removing the faction restrictions on nearly all starships that have been previously restricted solely to the Romulan faction. Any ship previously available only to Romulans will now be available to any member of Starfleet, Klingon Defense Force, or Dominion Vanguard, as long as they have completed their faction’s Tutorial experience (and, if applicable, traveled to the 25th Century).

Upgrade Weekend!


Still striving to get the greatest performance out of your equipment? This weekend will be the perfect time to apply Tech Upgrades to your gear, as we’re doubling the amount of Technology Points earned from each one applied!
From Thursday, August 22nd at 8AM PST to August 26th at 10AM PST, every Tech Upgrade used will apply twice as many Technology Points toward your next Upgrade! This in turn reduces the amount of Dilithium that must be spent to reach each Upgrade threshold, allowing Captains additional chances to attain both Mark and Rarity increases on their favored load outs.



Awakening: Beneath the Skin


“My namesake once said Mycelium was ‘like the Earth’s internet’. He was right, but it turns out he was off on the question of scale. It’s more like a quantum internet. For the universe.” - Paul Stamets
Beneath the Skin is a brand new episode coming to Star Trek Online with the launch of Awakening, and brings the story of STO back to the year 2410. J'ula, the fierce and uncompromising Klingon warrior who was catapulted forward in time by the use of her Mycelial weapon in Age of Discovery, is now threatening Andoria with that very same weapon. In order to stop her, you’ll have to use holographic technology to resurrect Paul Stamets, as played by Anthony Rapp. Together, your Captain and Stamets will venture into the Mycelial Network itself, to discover the source of Ju’la’s power and put a stop to it.
This episode will be available for Captains who have completed the tutorial, as part of the Age of Discovery arc. It is coming to PC on September 10th, and Xbox One and Playstation 4 later this year.



The Arena of Sompek - Your Last Chance at a Free Ship!


Beginning on August 8th, 2019, the combat trials of the Arena of Sompek will be returning as our next Featured Task Force Operation, with many changes to make the Arena easier to face on a daily basis. While this TFO is available, Captains may participate daily to earn progress towards a brand new Featured-TFO reward, as well as earning Coupon Progress toward a Tier-6 Starship Coupon.
This is the third and final FTFO in our Free T6 Ship Event. Don't miss this chance to finish your progress and get a free ship!
Continue reading for full details!
Reborn For a New Era
In anticipation of the Arena’s return as a long-running Event, and in response to player feedback received during previous runs of this challenge, we have made a number of alterations to the structure of this Task Force Operation.
The minimum level for participation has been reduced from 50 to 10.
Romulan and Jem’Hadar characters must have chosen a primary allegiance.
There will no longer be a “Timed” and “Untimed” version of the TFO.

Panel and Interviews from STLV!


We're back from Star Trek Las Vegas, and boy do we have some news for you! This weekend, we were joined on our Star Trek Online: Awakening panel by Anthony Rapp himself, and we spent some time discussing the future of Star Trek Online, and everything coming up in the game. Luckily, Priority One: A Roddenberry Star Trek Podcast was there, not only to lend us a panel moderator in Elijah Lleo, but also to record the podcast and several interviews with the developers at the show.

Star Trek Online: Awakening Appears September 10th!


It’s time to return to 2410, Captains. Our multi-part, expansion-over-time that began with Age of Discovery and ended with Rise of Discovery is now complete, and with it we’ve brought a ton of excitement to Star Trek Online. A entirely new faction, a revamped tutorial experience, and six new episodes starring beloved actors Mary Wiseman, Jason Isaacs, and Rehka Sharma brought the story of Star Trek: Discovery to Star Trek Online. We gave experienced players more to do with updates like Random Task Force Operations, Tier 6 Reputations, and Personal Endeavors. And we unleashed the Featured Task Force Operation system, bringing new stories and experiences to our game more often.
Now, we’re moving back to our main setting, the year 2410. And we’re bringing Anthony Rapp with us.
Rapp, known to Star Trek fans as Paul Stamets on Star Trek: Discovery, is the star of our next content update, Star Trek Online: Awakening. During Age of Discovery, players witnessed J’Ula and her Klingon forces steal Mycelial technology, which pulled them forward to the year 2410. Captains must now follow this ruthless Klingon matriarch back to the 25th century to ensure she doesn’t corrupt the entire Mycelial Network in pursuit of her own dangerous agenda. Unfortunately, the insurmountable threat J’Ula poses to the universe also draws out the Elachi, who fear her actions will lead to the destruction of their home planet - and they will stop at nothing to protect it. In order to complete their mission, Captains must rely on the help of an astromycologist expert, a sentient hologram of the legendary Lieutenant Commander Paul Stamets from the U.S.S. Discovery to help them track down J’Ula and repair the tears she’s caused in the fabric of space.

DB COMPETITIONS

Pimp the Fleets V7.0
Start Date: January 1, 2019
End Date: December 31, 2019
Groups involved: All STO playing DB members
Awards: Cr-Q - Cr-D monthly - BN - GN and Cr-E - Cr-D annual
Description:
Every month I will calculate the donations every DB member did to the EH ingame fleets in STO. With those donation points I will built up rankinglists for each fleet section and an overall rankinglist for each fleet. Awards will be Cr-E for first, Cr-T for second and Cr-Q for third in each section, Cr-A for first, Cr-R for second and Cr-E for third overall in each fleet.
At the end of the year, based on the amount of donations, there will be an annual rankinglist for each section and one for each fleet. Annual awards for each section will be Cr-A/Cr-S/Cr-E for 1st/2nd/3rd, for the winners in each fleet Cr-D/Cr-R/Cr-A for 1st/2nd/3rd.
To better compare the monthly donations to both fleets, the participants will earn overall points for placement in the section ranking lists, 4 points for first, 3 points for second, 2 points for third and 1 point for all other participants in that section. These overall points will be summed up for each member and a ranking list based on these will be used to crown the overall winner for the month. First place in that ranking list will receive the prestigious Cr-D, second a Cr-R, third a Cr-A.
These donation points will be summed up and put into a rankinglist at the end of the year. The annual winner in this rankinglist will receive a Gold Nova, the second placed a Silver Nova and third a Bronze Nova.
