The Tholians and the Mirror Universe have long been inextricably tied together, with the phenomena of interphase and dimensional travel being hallmarks of Tholian space and influence. The ambitious incursions of Terran Empire forces have brought allied forces into contact with the technology from the other side of the looking glass, including some of the advanced technology that the Mirror Universe has acquired from its own future counterparts. Simultaneously, the Tholians have been present at nearly every incident of temporal shifting or dimensional instability, with rifts to the Mirror Universe never far behind. Examples of both forms of enemy technology have already come under research, with an eye to learning how to use Tholian ships to safely traverse interphases, and how to learn from the advances in Mirror Universe technologies. Many of these advances are already coming into field testing, in hopes of providing parity against enemy forces.



By opening one of the new Mirror Incursion Lock Boxes, players will have a chance to win the Tholian Tarantula Dreadnought Cruiser [T6]. This enormous ship is the linchpin of the Tholian fleet, built by the reclusive crystalline entities to stand up to anything that the galaxy might throw at them.

The Tholian Tarantula Dreadnought Cruiser [T6] comes with a Web Cannon console, which snares enemies caught in the front of the ship when it fires its devastating blast. The tractor-repulsor webs then constrict the ship in a damaging grip.

Completing starship mastery of the Tholian Tarantula Dreadnought Cruiser [T6] unlocks the following Starship Trait:

Energy Web

While this trait is slotted, activation of Beam: Overload, Surgical Strikes or Cannon: Rapid Fire, your next attack will cause your foe to be trapped in an Energy Web. Enemies trapped in the Energy Web will suffer heavy shield penetrating physical damage over time and be held briefly. This ability's damage is improved by Auxiliary power and Starship Particle Generators skill. Energy Web can be triggered once every 45 seconds.




The Mirror Incursion Lock Box also includes a chance to win the Tholian Mesh Weaver Escort. This nimble T5 ship is designed to harry enemies while keeping them hemmed in with web walls.

The Lobi Store now offers the Paradox Temporal Dreadnought [T6]. This Mirror Universe ship is one of the most powerful ships in the Terran Empire’s fleet, using advanced technology from the future to be both durable and nimble. This ship includes a Lieutenant Tactical/Command seat and a Lt. Cmdr. Universal/Intel seat, for extraordinary flexibility.



The Paradox Temporal Dreadnought [T6] includes a Temporal Rift Stabilizer, a console that generates temporal anomalies along the forward line of the ship. These anomalies slow enemies and cause kinetic damage as they warp and destabilize the timeline.

Additionally, flying the Paradox Temporal Dreadnought [T6] enables unlocking of the following Starship Trait:

Unstable Anomalies

While this trait is slotted, your Gravity Well and Tyken's Rift anomalies will cause heavy kinetic damage in a 5km area of effect when they expire. This damage is improved by Starship Particle Generator skill.


In keeping with the captured Tholian and Mirror Universe technology included in this Lock Box, the Mirror Incursion Lock Box includes the chance to acquire the Web Snare Console, which fires a compressed beam of tractor-repulsors that forms a massive web. Unlike a typical Tholian web wall, however, this web captures ships that fly near it, and then entangles and crushes them while making them “stick” to the wall.

A new set of Genetic Sequencers (Trait Unlocks) can be obtained from this lock box, following the theme of Terran tactics and technology. Each of the following four (4) Trait Packs can be obtained by Captains:

Agony Modulator (Ground)

When you use a Control kit power (a power that causes Confuse, Disable, Hold, etc.), the power also causes a Damage Over Time effect on the target.


Blissful Agony (Ground)

When you suffer a Control effect (such as Confuse, Disable, Hold, etc.), gain +Resist against such effects, +Damage Resistance, and small Heal Over Time.


Invasive Control Programming (Space)

When you activate a Control effect on a foe (such as Jam Sensors), add a random Subsystem Offline effect.


Secret Command Codes (Space)

When you suffer a Control effect or Subsystem Offline, temporarily gain +Damage Resistance, +Resist against control effects, and a small Heal Over Time.


Alliance engineers have also salvaged some examples of advanced Terran Empire technology in the form of Terran Empire Kits. These Terran Empire Kit Packs grant you a kit appropriate to your career and level. In addition to offering standard skill bonuses, each kit frame also enhances the duration of your Control-type powers.



Terran weapons have fallen into the hands of Allied forces as a result of the current incursion, and some of them have made their way to the front lines. These brutal phasers include Terran Empire agonizer technology, which has made their use controversial, but the chaos of the recent wars has made regulation difficult. Players can acquire Terran Empire Agony Phaser weapon packs. Opening a pack allows a choice of a beam, cannon, or ground weapon. Beam weapon packs grant either a beam array or a dual beam bank, with a small chance of a 360-degree beam array. Cannon packs include a turret, single cannon, dual cannon, or dual heavy cannon, with a small chance of a wide-angle dual heavy cannon. Ground weapons grant either a Terran agony phaser stun pistol or a multibeam rifle, and have a distinctive Terran Empire look.

Agony phasers used as ship weapons have a chance to briefly disable an enemy ship as well as causing a small amount of damage over time. Agony phaser ground weapons have a chance to hold an enemy and likewise cause additional damage over time.



Captains can purchase Mirror Universe Uniforms, including variants of the Odyssey, Bortasqu’, and Romulan uniforms as worn by their Mirror counterparts (available only to characters of the appropriate faction). Additionally, a special set of Jupiter Terran Empire Uniforms adds more variants, including Admiral Leeta’s Mirror Uniform pieces.

The Mirror Incursion Lock Box also includes a new set of Mirror Incursion Intel Assignments. Each of these ten assignments offers strong rewards and also holds a piece of research about the events of the Mirror Universe incursion. Completing all ten allows the player to claim the title “Mirror Incursion Agent” along with a box of 10,000 dilithium ore; scoring a critical take (the intelligence community term for acquiring a rich load of secret information) on all ten allows the player to claim the title “Mirror Incursion Infiltrator” along with a box of 50,000 dilithium ore.



The Lobi store now also includes several pieces of additional gear, including Terran Empire Sonic Phasers. The Terran Empire uses these specially-tuned ground weapons for fighting Tholians. Sonic phasers have the agony phaser effects and also inflict 20% more damage when used against Tholians, and they also have unique coloration to reflect their Terran origins.



Captains can also acquire Tholian Toy Vanity Pets, which are tiny machines designed to resemble Tholian EV suits. Tholian Toy packs can grant a blue, green, purple, or gold Tholian Toy.

Finally, the Mirror Incursion Lock Box can include any of a number of bonuses and boosts, potentially including any of:

· 35,000 Fleet Credit Bonus Pool

· 25,000 Fleet Credit Bonus Pool

· 20,000 CXP Bonus Pool

The Mirror Incursion Lock Box and its additions to the Lobi store will debut with the arrival of our new anniversary celebration, starting January 28, 2016, at approximately 10:00 AM PST.

What? Seriously? A Tarantula in a lock box???

That's just insane!

Temporal dreadnought,... i guess I have one more i have to get to keep my set compleate

It should also be noted they are running a giveaway this week. Every day (I forget the time it swaps, I think 10am, can't remember time zone) they are giving out a free thing. There's still a couple of hours to grab the 2 spec points per character from today's giveaway before it changes. I think it's 6pm GMT when it swaps. But yeah, freebies every day all week!

During Star Trek Online’s 6th Anniversary event you will be able to obtain 6th Anniversary Prize Vouchers by participating in the event. These 6th Anniversary Prize Vouchers can be spent on an Event Reputation project to obtain the Krenim Science Vessel! This project requires 1000 6th Anniversary Prize Vouchers.





The Krenim Science Vessel bridges the gap between the Krenim Imperium Warship and the Krenim Annorax Science Dreadnought. It is quite large and slow to maneuver, unlike most science vessels. It does, however, boast a sturdier hull and incredibly powerful shield emitters.

This starship features a Lieutenant Commander Tactical/Intel specialist seat.

Console – Universal – Timeline Stabilizer

The Krenim Science Vessel comes equipped with the Timeline Stabilizer universal console. Activating this console will stabilize any temporal anomalies around your starship. This has the side effect of briefly increasing the flow of time within and around your starship. Enemies affected by this console will suffer a penalty to their recharge times, flight speed and turn rate. Your starship will receive a boost to both recharge times and weapon activation times, per affected foe.

This console also provides a passive reduction to all Science Bridge Officer abilities.

This console may be equipped on any starship.





Improved Feedback Pulse (Starship Trait)

After achieving level 5 in the Krenim Science Vessel starship mastery, you will unlock the Improved Feedback Pulse Starship Trait. While this trait is slotted, Feedback Pulse will deal additional damage and each time you are hit while Feedback Pulse is active you will gain a buff that boosts your Critical Hit Chance and Critical Severity. This buff stacks up to 10 times.

This starship also comes with the Krenim Bridge.

NOTE: The above stats and systems are subject to change. The box that the ship comes in, which cannot be opened until the opening player has the minimum rank listed above, is bound upon pickup.
