Now, I did some checking and is in fact 0.7 and not 1.0

Defiant has 0.9:

This is the Steamrunner with the same shield:

I buy this ship because I was told that it was 1. Please, any comment from any dev?

Thanks

I will buy this ship with a 1.0 modifier. I won't buy it with a .7.

I was told it was a typo but it seems that it is actually an issue with the T5 Steamrunner Retrofit's stats. Its shields are not working as designed so you might notice that the Shield Modifier reports its value at 0.7. This is incorrect; it should be 1.0.. So, Shield HP and activating any abilities that modify your, or your targets shields will be too low. The Tier 1 Steamrunner was unaffected.

A fix is on its way ASAP.

We apologize for any inconvenience.

Cheers,

Thank you for the fast answer.

Switched to the Steamrunner, and the weapons will not set to green, for the auto fire. Ater I switched to a shuttle and back it worked for a while. I logged out of the game and now after I came back, the bug is back too. I can't auto fire ship weapons and the green color indicating auto fire is set to "on", will not turn on at all. For two hours now I have been trying to get my weapons to work, waste of time.

Switched to a shuttle and back to see if that fixes it, used to be a common way, but this time no luck...

Where the hell did the steam runner come from and how do I get one?

You get it via Steam, its a promo for 10 bucks, claim the code their and then put into your STO account (PWE website) and claim it from the store under "Bundles".

they are gunna fix it, dont wait till after the sale to get it. hull tanking is very... interesting in it. 2 AtS and HE work very well with 2 neutronium or monotronim. beat several trop using escorts 1v1 with it so far, and managed to tank the new pve pretty well. borticus will be happy to know that hull tanking is working great right now.

In such a hurry to make money rather quality Brandon?? This is just my view of things lately no hostility in this comment btw.. but really.. you guys arent really maken good judgement calls here with the new season, and ive been here since head start...

Hopefully you guys are going to learn eventually....eventually...

Thats funny, I looked up this and it says the Blockade Runner Escort Retrofit SHOULD have a shield modifier of 0.7? It actually seems to make more sense to have the shield modifier at 0.7 for an escort at this level.

For those who are unsure what I mean, the LT level starter ship is in RED the Admiral Retrofit is in BLUE

The Blockade Runner Escort: Steamrunner class has been around since the late 24th century, but due to its reliability and effectiveness is still in limited use today. The Steamrunner class saw significant action in the Battle of Sector 001 against the Borg, as well as in countless battles and sorties during the Dominion War. Simply put, the Steamrunner is fast, agile and tough.

The Blockade Runner Escort: Steamrunner class comes equipped with a Resonance Cascade Modulator console mod. This mod gives you the Team Fortress power which you can use to enhance your team's shields for a limited duration, eliminating bleedthrough from normal attacks and decreasing damage sustained by the team's shields. This Console Mod can be equipped in any console slot on any ship. You may only equip one of these mods on any single ship.
