Starship combat is the main activity in Star Trek Online, but the game doesn’t necessarily do the best job of defining what makes one ship better than another in a specific category. Why is one weapon better than another? What does crit severity mean? Why can’t I put tribbles in my impulse slot? Do not fret, for Ten Ton Hammer is here to provide you the basic knowledge of what you need to know about your starship.


No matter what type of ship you decide upon, they all share the same type of attributes. The difference is in what the actual stats are, which vary by type and tier. As you progress to higher tiers, the ship stats will increase and so will the number of slots available to you to upgrade your ship. A tier 2 Escort has 2 tactical stations, 1 science, and 1 engineering, while a Tier 4 Escort has 3 tactical, 2 science, and 2 engineering.
