New experimental upgrades in Star Trek Online will let you unlock a bunch of new options for your ships.
These experimental upgrades can be found in an Ship Selector location. These will be located in most starbases and social zones. You’ll need to use a new token called Experimental Starship Upgrade Tokens. Starting tomorrow, October 6, through November 5 can claim such a token in the Zen store for free during a promo period.
You can unlock a bunch of new options for your ships. For example, if you apply this upgrade to the T6 or T5-U, you can benefit from:
- +1 Device Slot
- +1 Universal Console Slot
- +1 Starship Trait Slot (only active on ships that have had an Experimental Prototype Upgrade applied)
To acquire these tokens for the upgrades, the team is rolling out a promo granting everyone from October 6 through November 5 will receive one free token, as stated above. Beyond that, you can also find them in the Phoenix Reclamation Store at the Ultra Rare tier.
You’ll be able to apply these tokens to T6 or T5-U including Fleet ships, Legendary Ships, Ships found in lockboxes and infinity promotions.
