Tholian Widow Fighters are a type of Hangar Pet for characters of any faction.
Rare Widow fighters are obtained with the purchase of the following Tholian vessels:
The Advanced variant is no longer obtainable and should be considered a legacy item. Elite Widow fighters can be purchased from the Nukara Strikeforce branch of the reputation system at Tier 5. Slotted hangar pets will add a launch ability: Launch Tholian Widow Fighters.
Hangar overview[]
Name | Squad | Energy type | Projectile | Abilities | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Tholian Widow Fighters | 3/6 | Tetryon | Quantum | Supports Recluse Tetryon Grid | |
Advanced Tholian Widow Fighters | 3/6 | Tetryon | Quantum | Supports Recluse Tetryon Grid | |
Elite Tholian Widow Fighters | 3/6 | Tetryon | Quantum | Supports Recluse Tetryon Grid • Beams: Fire at Will I |
Tholian Widow fighters are fast and agile craft, capable of chain linking attacks with their command vessel. They largely resemble the 22nd century and 23rd century web spinner designs from decades past.
Prior to Season Nine: A New Accord, Rare, Very Rare (Advanced), and Ultra Rare (Elite) Widow fighters could be obtained from Tiers 1, 3 and 5 of the Nukara Strikeforce reputation branch respectively. These Widow pets are faction agnostic and do not require a Tholian ship to purchase. With the Season 9 update, both Rare and Very Rare pets were retired from the reputation. While Rare and Ultra Rare pets are still available for purchase, the currently obtainable Rare variant can now only be equipped on any Tholian Carrier or Dreadnought Cruiser. The Advanced variant was not relocated to the Dilithium store and is no longer obtainable.
Standard-issue (rare) Tholian Widow Fighters come pre-loaded as part of the standard equipment of the following vessels:

Special abilities[]
Supports Recluse Tetryon Grid[]
Tholian hangar pets, both Widow fighters and Mesh Weavers, can synergize with the Tholian Tetryon Grid ability found on both the Recluse and Jorogumo carriers. This ability creates a grid of Tetryon Energy between the command vessel and its hangar pets, refracting to near nearby allies and increasing their outgoing weapon damage for a short duration. Hangar pets affected by the grid this way will additionally reflect Tetryon Beam Attacks at up to two nearby foes.
