The Constellation-class Heavy Cruiser Refit is a Tier 3 (Level 20) Cruiser which may be flown by Starfleet characters, including Federation-aligned Romulan Republic and Dominion characters. All faction restrictions of this starship can be removed by having a level 65 KDF character or by purchasing the Cross Faction Flying unlock from the Zen Store.
Players can obtain this starship from any Ship and Shuttle Requisitions officer for 75,000 . This ship can be purchased individually, or as part of the Captain Picard Bundle for 12,000 . This ship was previously available on its own from the Zen Store; players that purchased it from there can still reclaim it from there on all their characters.
Overview[ | ]
The recent Refit of Starfleet's Heavy Cruiser extends the life of one of the oldest ships in the fleet. This workhorse of the Federation has been used for the past 125 years for everything from deep space exploration, transport, blockade and patrol missions. These cruisers are much more capable than the Tier 2 Constitution-class Cruiser.
Class variants
Class | Information |
---|---|
SKIN UNLOCK: Free One of few starship designs to feature four nacelles, Cheyenne-class starships fought during the Battle of Wolf 359. The Cheyenne is based on the design of the Galaxy class. | |
SKIN UNLOCK: Free The Dakota class is described as a day-to-day workhorse, taking on many types of operations for Starfleet. The design is an offshoot of the Cheyenne class but sports a much narrower saucer section. | |
SKIN UNLOCK: Free The Stargazer class was named in honor of the Constellation-class U.S.S. Stargazer. This class design was put into production after the Dominion War to replace lost ships during that time. The design is similar to the Dakota class, but has a much more modern hull and nacelles. | |
SKIN UNLOCK: Free with this starship The oldest ship of this type, the Constellation class borrows heavily from 23rd-century starship technology and design aesthetics, such as the Miranda and Constitution classes. The U.S.S. Stargazer (NCC-2893) is perhaps the best-known ship of the class, being the first command of Captain Jean-Luc Picard. You may also select the "Constellation Beta" nacelles in the ship tailor, a nacelle variant with glowing red bussard collectors and ramscoops reminiscent of the initial STO model. | |

Abilities[ | ]
The Constellation-class Heavy Cruiser Refit comes equipped with a [Console - Universal - Warp Burst Capacitor]. This unique piece of equipment allows you to execute a short-duration high-warp burst that confuses enemy sensors into thinking there are two versions of your vessel for a short period of time. This quick burst of coherent warp travel facilitates a Federation tactic known colloquially as the "The Picard Maneuver." The Picard Maneuver grants you a few moments of untargetable status, and moves your ship a good distance forward along your current trajectory in an instant. It also offers you a noticeable tactical advantage. You will be granted a short duration ambush damage bonus immediately after the warp burst. This console can be equipped in any console slot, on any starship.
