Pasted from the Blog:
Items and Abilities
The Hestia Class Advanced Escort comes equipped with the High-Energy Plasma Expulsers universal console. Specially designed to weaponize excess fusion plasma, this system of special heat sinks and particle exciters allow the ship to vent dangerous plasma fire, causing plasma damage to nearby enemy ships. When installed, this system is present on all sections of separated Multi-Vector Assault Mode escorts, allowing all sections to coordinate the use of these dangerous plasma expulsers. In addition, this console provides a passive bonus to plasma and tetryon damage resistance rating as well as a boost to Weapon Power.
This starship can unlock the Numerical Superiority starship trait by achieving level 5 in their Starship Mastery. While this trait is slotted, you gain a damage bonus that increases as more allies target your targeted foe, including yourself. This includes pets like Saucer Separation or Multi-Vector pets, but not hangar pets.
Costumes
The Hestia Class Advanced Escort can use all costume parts from any existing Advanced Escort or Multi-Vector Advanced Escort regardless if you own the Multi-Vector Advanced Escort or not.
Look for a follow-up blog that will detail the stats on this awesome new Tier 6 escort and its fleet variant in the near future!

Oh yay, my favorite escort gets an upgrade, with quite possibly the newest "must use" starship trait depending on the bonus.

a lot depends on existing traits ... but for me ... one tactical ens to many... command rather than intel and 4/3 the starship trait might have made carrier interesting except it doesn't apply for hanger pets... all make it a no-sale for me

How's the ship working for you Jeff? Enjoying it? Have you unlocked the trait?
By the way, is it the only command escort other than the jem'hadar strike ship?

So, after some test runs, it just so happens that the trait this ship comes with does indeed work as advertised. Since I started using this trait I've gone from a maximum of just under 35k dps to over 45k. Not to mention how devastating it is in pvp when everyone is firing on the same person.
