New Dev Blog, no mention of the new WoK uniforms

http://sto.perfectworld.com/blog/?p=1053101

Also about the new Breen ship

Quote
it's a Raider, minus a cloaking device, plus a substantial playstyle upgrade that will be coming to the Raider class as a whole at a future date.

According to the tool tip for the Dissipator console that comes with the Breen Cruiser it will work with the Raider, and is a 2 piece set with the raiders console, which you can see the name of here.

Well that's good to hear atleast. Now I know which character to run the "race grind" on, since I only have the Cruiser on 1 of my characters :P

Those new eyes look weird.  They don't look deep they just look foggy and misted over, the trill on the right especially.

With no mention of the WoK uniforms that must mean they're coming as a pack later on.  With a Constitution-class movie interior perhaps?  They've been hinted at the TNG interiors, and half those sets were repurposed from the TMP-era.
Thanks for letting me know the forum was back up, guys.  I thought everyone died.

Kori did some digging earlier and the wok uniforms were done as part of the winter event, judging by the label that says "winter" :P

Maybe they decided against it, or its suppose to be surprise when it goes live
If they're not coming this winter, maybe they plan on releasing them as a costume pack on the C-Store, which would mean more money for them.

Anyways branflakes just posted this

Looks like Raiders are going to get the ability to 'Flank' in space.

Ah, so that's how they're going to combat a2b beam boats!

Flanking in space... So kinda like a suggestion I previously made, about making "Expose" mechanics work in Space combat?

I'm not so sure about it to be honest.  For sure, don't let NPCs do it to you!  There are already too many potential instadeath abilities as it is (isocharge from borg neghvars, borg bop heavy torps etc). 
Just imagine if those got the flank bonus! You could end up with an entire team wiping with one shot from a mid-level npc.

I think certain members here will be excited, according to the patch notes for tomorrow, they have fixed the Loading Screen CTD issue.

Raider stats.  

No cloak and only 6 weapons (4 fore 2 aft) but good grief, 5 tac consoles, 3 sci consoles plus the +33% damage when flanking?! Those boff slots too.  That thing looks like a viable a2b boat.

So according to someone on Reddit, those WoK uniforms have been in the files for about 2 years.

Fleet version of that ship can be seen in Ship Requisitions already.

Yeah, the WoK jackets I posted have been in the game files for a while now. I never noticed them before, but I never actually searched for 'winter' items before.

I found a rather nice bug with the recipes you can get in winter invasion.

Please don't spread it around though.  We don't want cryptic finding out and nerfing it.
If everyone on the team picks up the recipe at the same time, everyone gets it.
Normally, if one person picks it up on their own, then no one else can pick it up.
