The Bortas-class Heavy Battlecruiser is a Tier 5 (Level 50) Battlecruiser which may be flown by Klingon Defense Force characters, including Klingon Empire-aligned Romulan Republic and Dominion characters. All faction restrictions of this starship can be removed by having a level 65 KDF character or by purchasing the Cross Faction Flying unlock from the Zen Store.
Players can obtain this starship from any Ship and Shuttle Requisitions officer for 200,000 , so long as the player's Fleet has a Tier V Shipyard and one Starbase Military Fleet Ship Provision.
The Bortas class was first introduced as a limited-time reward for participating in the 2 Year Anniversary Event. Players who claimed this ship from that event may reclaim it now on all Klingon Defense Force and allied characters on their account via the Event Reputation Account Reward Claim tab.
Overview[ | ]
Not content to rest on their laurels, the Klingon Defense Force engineering teams at the Ty'Gokor Fleet Yards have been hard at work advancing Klingon ship design into the 25th century. When Chancellor J'mpok demanded a new, more powerful flagship to lead the Empire, they were ready with the Bortas-class Battlecruiser, a ship that will bring swift vengeance to enemies of the Empire.
Until the Operation: Delta Rising, the Bortas-class Battlecruiser was the largest, most powerful battlecruiser in the Klingon arsenal. Its massive hull affords it incredible resilience in battle, but it sacrifices turn rate for that size. It comes with a standard cloaking device, but its massive energy signature means the cloak is less effective than it would be on a smaller vessel. The Bortas-class is designed to take on any foe no matter how powerful, and because of that is designed with versatility in mind.
