The Elachi Sheshar Dreadnought Cruiser is an Vice Admiral (Tier 6) starship.
Few starships are as menacing and massive as the Tier 6 Elachi Sheshar Dreadnought Cruiser. It has impressive defensive and offensive capabilities. Since they began their campaign of devastation, their vicious hit-and-run tactics, combined with their inscrutable motives and strangely silent nature, have struck fear into the hearts of many species of the Alpha and Beta Quadrant. During conflicts with these silent enemies, much of their technology has been salvaged and repurposed for use in the fight against them and their mysterious allies.
The Sheshar comes equipped with the Deploy Assault Vessel console. Thus allows the Sheshar to deploy its bottom half as an assault craft that can harass foes. This console can be equipped in any Elachi starship, however it will instead summon in the Sheshar Dreadnought Cruiser. This console can be equipped on any Elachi Vessel.
Overview
After achieving level 5 in your Elachi Sheshar Dreadnought Cruiser [T6], you will unlock the Torpedo Barrage starship trait. While equipped, your Torpedo: High Yield bright officer abilities will cause you the queue up a bonus Torpedo: High Yield I. This can occur once every 30 seconds.
The Elachi Sheshar Dreadnought Cruiser comes equipped with a single Oschu Shuttle hanger pet. These maneuverable light craft are larger than standard fighters and are built for damage dealing. They come equipped with a fore Elachi Beam array, a fore Elachi Torpedo launcher and an arty Elachi turret.
Obtaining
The Elachi Sheshar Dreadnought Cruiser is available by the Elachi R&D Promotion. They may also be found on the exchange, although they will be quite expensive.
Variants
Performance
The Elachi Sheshar Dreadnought Cruiser boasts offensive and defensive capabilities like no other ship. Given its ample and versatile Bridge Officer structure, this ship can be easily tailored to any Captain or playing style.
The Sheshar Dreadnought first shows its prowess through its offensive capabilities. The Sheshar features 8 total weapon slots, capable of loading Dual Cannons, as well as +10 bonus Weapon Power. The Sheshar has an innate Lieutenant Tactical Bridge Officer slot, and the universal Lieutenant Commander slot can be allotted towards additional tactical abilities. In addition to its own weapons, the Sheshar come with 1 hanger bay, which is equipped with damage-dealing heavy fighters. The Sheshar in essence has a second hanger pet, in the form of the Deploy Assault Vessel console, which drops the bottom portion of the ship for additional firepower. It also has the Cruiser Command - Weapon System Efficiency, which helps to reduce weapon power drain. All this together produces firepower never before seen on a Cruiser/ Carrier ship.
Even more impressive than its offensive capabilities are its defensive and support capabilities. Its hull is comparable with other ships of its class, and it features a shield modifier (1.3) usually only seen on Science vessels. Its 2200 crew allow the Sheshar to regenerate hull quickly, and it comes standard with +5 bonus Shield Power, and +5 Engine Power. It also has build in Commander Engineering slot, as well as a Lieutenant Commander Science slot. Its universal Lieutenant Commander slot can also be allotted towards additional defensive or support powers, if so desired. Coupled with its balanced console slots, the Sheshar Dreadnought can absorb quite a lot of punishment.
Its main weakness is its turn rate of 6, which in essence prevents Captains from effectively running Dual Heavy Cannons. However, its 5 fore weapons and 3 aft make the Sheshar prefect for Beam Arrays in the front, and weapons in the rear slots that have a 360 degree firing arc (Borg cutting beam, Omni-direction beam array, turrets, mines, etc...). Its turn rate is greater than most ships its size, which gives it an edge over other Cruisers or Carriers.
