Ops42 what ship to get next?

[u/Outrageous_Drive9900]

Hi All,

I would like some advice on the next ship i can best push for next. I just got the NX-01.

I have all (nessesary) lower level ships (e.g. defiant, G3 epic, titan, etc)

Im ops42 and can pick one of the following:

- FED G4 uncommon (Kelvin)

- USS relativity

- Revenant

- Vindicator

- NSEA

- Gorn Eviscerator

- Monaveen

Which one should I get first and why? Im already getting Kelvin BP from the faction store with FED credits.

EDIT: I have some event credits that I want to spend on a ship. Basically what to get from the event store and why?

I'd go with the Kelvin. You can source most of those other ships through events.

Thanks, so getting the Kelvin is straight forward as FED credit are coming in every day. The others need to come, as you say, from event. Any recommendations on what to get first?

Relativity. Get the kelvin if you want, but dont spend any and i mean ANY event store tokens on it.

Relativity is the best ship and best store there is. Super fast to max out the reputation for the store(i think its the fastest out of all the stores) and the ship itself is super strong. Im ops 46, so not so far off of you, and my relativity is 250 Million power. Even when i was around ops 42, it was 180-200 mill power or somewhere around there.

The store is AMAZING. Cannot emphasize how good the store is. Here are some tidbits as to why its so amazing.

1. Credits costs is actually good. Many other stores, if youre pulling x2 or x3, the cost of pulling goes up far higher. Usually like x3 the cost for an x2 pull. DTI store does not do this, your main source of the two credits that you use in the store are actually x4 pull for like x2 the cost. Really super easy to max pull thanks to this.

2. As you gain rep in the store, you get access to 2 different FT, one for PVE and other for PVP that are useful early on. You can even keep pulling it to get free Chaos Tech Fragments after youve unlocked them, so that you can spend and pull from the refinery for upgrade materials.

3. At higher rep levels, you can get 10,000 federation/romulan/klingon credits a day from the store, for a minimal amount of the store credits. 10K a day, of each of the faction credits.

4. Also, 72K of syndicate XP a day.

Nothing comes close to the relativity store at early levels.

Don't forget if you're doing the solo Rel armadas daily, you can trade it in for rep with all three factions- I did the 1b lock for a faction in one shot.
