The birthday ship is equipped really cheap - a bit fleet stuff, 1 R&D console, everything else is mission loot or replay mission loot, some upgraded Mk XI->XII and 2 pieces came from the fleet bank. Including traits from the EC the baby was below 7M EC.

My Video is german atm, but I will make an "english" version "soon" ;-)

This is how she currently flies: Academy Build

The ship is already sporting 25K dps in ISA.

A growth path would:

replace the Phaser Relays by Vulnerability Locators, replace the 3 non-set front phasers by Fleet Starbase Adcanced or K13 Phasers [CrtD][Dmg]x3
upgrade to MK XIV

Though the Captain will go for a Zen Cruiser, because.

The interceptor is definetively a brave little ship. No complains on toughness or punch, she will NOT go to the dry dock as I want to return to her when I feel I need to fly agile.
