Vi’dar Talios
What we know so far (will update as information comes in).
With the second month of the Borg arc comes a new ship, the Vi’dar Talios. This will be available free to play for every player with a Tier 9 Vi’dar. On day one of the arc you will get a mission that will get you half the blueprints. The second mission should be coming on day 8 of the arc. Therefore, you should have a full, free unlock of this in the second week of the arc if you have a max Vi’dar.
With this ship comes new Borg systems. These systems will be using the same currency as the old system, but have level 36-60 Borg ships in them, and will have much better sourcing of nanoprobes. Scopely is saying this will require many fewer kills then with the normal Vi’dar. It will also have a faster impulse speed than the normal Vi’dar, which should also cut down on the time.

Tiering the Ship
Upgrades to this ship will use charged nanoprobes, exactly like the normal Vi’dar components.
Refinery
There will be a new Borg refinery. All parts of the refinery replace the old one, so you will no longer have access to the old refinery. That being said, Scopely has said that the new refinery will have better rewards across the board, so it should be better.
Borg Expansion Cubes
These armadas should be fought by the ship. Click here for more information.
What Vi’dar Research Works with Talios?
Prime Borg Rewards and Prime Nanoprobes will continue to function. Assimilated Credit Yield does not. The Vi’dar exocomps from the Borg solo armada chests will not affect the new ship. Other research needs to be tested.

Prime Research
The first prime will be given free to all players who finish both missions or purchase the Talios. The other you’ll have to pay for.
