Hydra Intel Destroyer Build Guide - Star Trek Online

Been stuck trying to find a 4 nacelled ship I liked for ages and I think you finally sold me on the Hydra, thanks for yet another awesome review man glad you're still doing stuff with this game

One of my fave Hydra console uses so far is 2 full hangars of fighters...and the Hurq waveform beacon's Chidyat Swarmers. So. Much. Boom.

I love Engery builds no matter what else i play.

Absolutely in love with this ship, perfect space barbie for me ♥️

Damn... I thought I was cool using 4 power tray lines... but I do also like how you keep your boffs on the screen too. I also like your insistence on doing theme builds and using the special console instead of ditching in pursuit of muh DEEEEEEEPPPPPSSS!!! It's always fascinating meeting players who can't comprehend just enjoying the game...

Thank you, great breakdown.

Thank you for making this vid. I love the Prometheus class variants but wasn't sure what to do with it lol. I'll be honest, I wish it had miracle worker seating but at least we get a modern version.

I tried an old Aux2bat beam build on it, and I worked better than I thought. But I like the look for sure.

I can't wait to see your Monitor build! I myself yet didn't decide, whether start a new FED toon, or swap an existing one. Anyways my jem'hadar carrier captain pretty much in love with the Monitor, it just doesn't seems right to fly the new and finally good looking FED carrier with polaron weapons and the half of the jem'hadar fleet. 😁

I,for one, am quite happy with my Eagle. Especially because the currently broken console and trait make it a veritable torpedo sprinkler and you can use Gravity Well 3 on it. So it combines hard hitting AOE DPS with EPG utility and of course, being nible and fun to fly due to pilot maneuvers (which are actually required for the trait to work properly). Basically, it's an upgraded and torpedo optimized version of the Equinox with a battle cloak. But it can also do DEW builds just as well due to being a 5/1 layout raider.

The Hydra are my new favourite ships. Legendary Defiants and Titans be damned! Hmmm..... legendary Hydra...

The experimental weapon does better in a small map Elite environment (like ISE) because it acts like a projectile. If stuff dies too quickly, they can’t apply the kinetic damage. I’ve gotten around 30k out of it. It does get buffed by the trait.

I really wish you could change the visual of the Disco Rep Dual Beam Bank......

I got the bundle for the Styx. yesterday i was bored and tried out the Hydra, and was pleasantly surprised. I ofcource don't have all the stuff you have, but i have some, like surgical strikes. I play on advanced, and i expected to be destroyed in minutes, with only 101 hull. but i didn't. In fact, i tore through enemies like they were tissue paper, and didn't die once. This ship is fast, deadly, and tough. i like it. Now i don't need luck, i have the Hydra..... ;)

Synergises well with high aux power and aux phaser cannons

For those of us that are newer, if you're not going to list the equipment/weapons/traits in the video, could you please at least put them in the description, please?

I like the Defiant.

Here's an idea for a build challenge: Just exactly how far can T5 ships be pushed? Take the Malon Battlecruiser for example. Can it be pushed and compete with a lesser example of T6, such as the Jupiter, etc? How far can a precise build make an old ship viable again? Just thought it might be an interesting idea for a video.

What combat log parser are you using? I'm still using CLR but that looks a lot easier to read/prettier.

I actually just finished that video you were talking about at the beginning. I can't believe Agony Phasers are a scam lol! This ship looks really fun. I can't wait until I can get it on ps4. I really wish they would've just made a basic MVAM a built-in ability and actually made it useful. I have the console on my Hestia and it's a waste of a spot honestly.
