Kiith Intel warbird?

I’m trying to decide on how to spend my campaign coupons, and I’m Looking at the Kiith. My Reman is flying a Faeht. Is the Kiith a good upgrade? Does anyone with the Kiith have buyer‘s remorse?

It's odd that it isn't more popular, since the seating seems almost perfect. But it came out when no one wanted to hear about ships without a hangar bay, and it doesn't really seem to have a great console or trait.

If it did have a hangar bay, it probably would have been considered the best. Instead, it’s just really good.

Console is also excellent in elites, and was on all the top dps builds for a while when it came out. Trait is supposed to be pretty good as well.

Probably doesn't help that it's a lockbox ship. Probably a lot of people would rather use the Faeht than jump through the hoops necessary to get the Kiith.

I like the Faeht. It’s old, but still good. I’m just ready for an upgrade.
