As conflicts escalate between variant Borg factions and the Aetherians across dimensional boundaries, the member factions of the Khitomer Alliance find themselves caught in a storm of crossfire that threatens multiple realities! From September 17th at 8am PT to October 17th at 12pm PT, you can participate in the “Dimensional Typhoon” event. This new event will find you facing all three variants of the Multiversal Borg.


New Content
For the first time ever, one of our events is launching with three brand new pieces of content! Battle in our brand new TFO, “Royal Flush,” and our two new Patrols, “Out of Control” and “Unwanted Guests,” along with two classic TFOs to progress in this event. More information on this new content will be revealed in a later blog.

Event Progress
Participating in this event grants daily progress towards a Grand Prize – the Typhoon Temporal Battlecruiser, and a Pulse Phaser Weapon Back! More details on this new ship will be revealed in a later blog!

Pulse Phaser Weapon Pack
This pack contains six variants of the Pulse Phaser Weapons originally found in the Undiscovered Country Lock Box. Pulse Phaser space weapons have a chance to lower your target's damage resistance rating while increasing your own. Upon opening this pack, you’ll be able to choose from the following options:

    Spoiler: show
  • Beam Array
  • Dual Beam Bank
  • Cannon
  • Dual Cannons
  • Dual Heavy Cannons
  • Turret


This pack is account bound, and not reclaimable. It will be granted to the character who claims the Grand Prize.

Earning this Grand Prize requires 20 daily progress, and Captains can earn daily progress once per account per day by playing any of the Task Force Operations or Patrols in the event. You will receive two daily progress for completing a TFO, and one daily progress for completing a patrol. They are as follows:

    Spoiler: show
  • TFO: Royal Flush (NEW)
  • TFO: Battle of Wolf 359
  • TFO: Resistance of Starbase One
  • Patrol: “Out of Control“ (NEW)
  • Patrol: “Unwanted Guests“ (NEW)


Once Captains have obtained 20 points on their account, they can claim the Grand Prize Bundle listed above. After that, the event will still be playable, granting a scaling Dilithium reward that begins at 8,000 Dilithium Ore and scales by 1,000 Dilithium Ore for every day you participate in the event, up to a cap of 50,000 Dilithium Ore per day.

Captains will also have the option to purchase their remaining progress in the event with Zen. The price for this buyout will be pro-rated, based on the amount of progress a Captain has completed.

Command the Typhoon!


Veteran Captains in Star Trek Online will have heard of the Typhoon, a ship that launched with STO but was never made available to players. It's status as an unflyable ship made it incredibly desirable, even as STO moved on to more modern ship designs. But we never want to leave you hanging, Captains, so our team of master ship artists and designers went back and remade the Typhoon for a new era, soaring onto your screens as part of the Dimensional Typhoon event.

Once you have earned sufficient Daily Progress to complete the “Dimensional Typhoon” Special Event, you may claim this Starship for your entire account. Just open the Event Reclaim Store to claim a Typhoon Temporal Battlecruiser (T6) for each captain on your account.

Typhoon Temporal Battlecruiser (T6)

A massive battlewagon, the Typhoon Battlecruiser is the largest starship to emerge from Andoria’s Laikan Shipyards. One of several options considered in Starfleet’s late 2380’s rush to build “super capital” ships, the Typhoon was the smallest considered and passed over for the more graceful Odyssey-class to be Starfleet’s next ship of the line.

Briefly abandoned, the Typhoon’s rugged frame and powerful engines spoke for themselves as tensions escalated with the Klingon Empire at the turn of the 25th century. Though the Typhoon is large, it is still significantly cheaper to produce than an Odyssey-class Star Cruiser, and Starfleet planners recognized its potential as a vanguard flagship, using a mix of specialized equipment and ample firepower to lead squadrons from the front as a combat command ship.

Several Typhoons were rushed into service as conflict with the Klingons escalated, and they saw harrowing service during the subsequent string of conflicts that culminated in the Iconian War. Now, as Starfleet and the Khitomer Alliance sense a renewed threat looming from the encroaching and multi-dimensional Borg conflict, the Typhoon has undergone a sixth-generation refit and is ready to face another spate of “interesting times.”

This ship comes with a Commander Engineering / Temporal Operative Specialist Bridge Officer seat and a Lt Commander Tactical / Command Specialist Bridge Officer seat.

Console – Universal – Protonic Snare Projector

This special equipment suite allows a dynamic creation of a protonic energy field that grows as it travels to be created in the field using simple replicator technology. The energy that constitutes this field is protonic in nature, but also resonates with enemy starship hulls, infiltrating their energy relays to shut down their ability to activate abilities or to move.

This console also provides a passive boost to Starship Projectile Weapon Training skill, and Starship Projectile Shield Penetration skill.

This console mod may be equipped on any starship and may be equipped in any console slot. You may only equip one of this console at a time.

Description:

Creates Expanding Net, Damages and Holds
  • Create an Energy net that expands as it travels up to 10km in your facing direction
  • To Foes: Proton Damage up to 3x per sec (per overlapping beam) and Brief Hold

Starship Trait – Piggyback Launch Tubes

Specialized torpedo launch tubes allow for additional Microcharges to be loaded and fired alongside your ship's standard torpedoes. When firing a torpedo at a foe, you will automatically also launch a Microcharge for additional Kinetic Damage to that target. This microcharge works while under special firing modes but will only ever fire a single additional projectile at your primary target.

Description:
  • When firing any Torpedo Weapon, launch a microcharge that deals additional Kinetic Damage
