Nah the epic one

[twilit lintel]

ah no

where is Changling?

oh wow it seem i havent checked this inawhile lol

[little violet]

Female odo

[twilit lintel]

oh i havent seen this before

[little violet]

Do you have bajoran?

[twilit lintel]

yes

[gray lark]

Just discovered yesterday the values can go above 3

[twilit lintel]

yeahhhh ammm this is where i staggle

i cannot for the life of me beat a dom armada

[little violet]

They get easier later

[gray lark]

Critical traits values I mean

Always thought 3 was max for each

[twilit lintel]

yes

3 ships

i just built the new vidar ship but it's still tier 1

i got a voy

a maxed sally

a mantis

i just don't know a good armada crew lol

[little violet]

voy sally and mantis are useless in those

Sally maybe good, but the other are not

[round bluff]

maybe instead of adding non star trek content to a STAR TREK game, fix it the lag, and the constant problems that makes it unplayable. 👎

[little violet]

Who cares about the content being added. it is a game..

What are you going to do when they bring Zap brannagin

[twilit lintel]

all i have is carol

[little violet]

Riker can be got through TP

[coral notch]

I am very late, but around which system can I pick up any of the new missions for this month's arc SMS? Never did these before so I have no clue about this one...

[little violet]

holo deck. the missions are not on planets

[little violet]

Nice photo shop.. 9 docks are not possible

[coral notch]

My mirror universe part on holodeck keeps loading forever, so I didn't know it had missions there...

the first enterprise seems a little stuck though

its been like that all day

[twilit lintel]

@dull mason

[little violet]

Rep gets locked there

[twilit lintel]

now its rom time

[little violet]

I would do rom/fed together

[little violet]

Oh, good stuff

I do kind of think the D4 is the best G3 epic, for pvp anyway

[twilit lintel]

yeah i'm aiming fo it

and enterprise

[little violet]

The augur is the best hostiles grinder

[twilit lintel]

oh yeah hmm

so what it boost rep?

[little violet]

Ent is probably second best

[twilit lintel]

augur what op lvl?

[little violet]

Sol will be your best best for romulan rep. If you can kill them

[twilit lintel]

i cant i tried

even double tap

[little violet]

Do you have maxed chen?

[little violet]

Once she is maxed if you have tier 3 or 4 ent. You can kill the regular traders

Stay away from the heavy traders tho

[twilit lintel]

kinda low on fed credits

waitin till op 38 so i can unlock dark path node

[opal meadow]

Can you fix your game, TC was unplayable with fiber internet. Had to restart a dozen times.

Thanks for all the new primes to siphon money out of people when the servers are as unstable as my ex-gf

But hey can't wait for the arc that isn't star trek related when there's tons of lore you haven't touched on.

[twilit lintel]

@little violet good crew to kill unkown ships in voy space?

[little violet]

Species?

Do you have snw pike?

[twilit lintel]

yes

but i was lookin at this

[livid shell]

Why’s his name banned on this server ?

[little violet]

He woul be a better cap

[twilit lintel]

who

[livid shell]

https://tenor.com/view/trump-meme-winks-gif-4610597714899346197

[little violet]

Yeah, but pike is a little better than he looks on stats

[livid shell]

That guy .. why ?

[little violet]

No politics.

[twilit lintel]

thought we couldnt post politics on here?

[little violet]

I been mutedfor less..

[twilit lintel]

when i did it last year i got warned

i gues rules change

[little violet]

Nah they pick and choose who to punish...

[livid shell]

https://tenor.com/view/what-why-huh-steve-harvey-confused-gif-3998567347368525851

[livid shell]

Good against battleships but you need interceptor or you’d have to kill interceptors with your voy

[twilit lintel]

yes i use voy

[livid shell]

Why not use picard bev and tlan?

[twilit lintel]

but i never used sally fo unknown ships cuz it might go boom lol

cuz i dont got picard or bev

[livid shell]

Yeah the hirogen got a strong hull

When I don’t have the voy I used gg, tal and khan on an augur

[twilit lintel]

forgot

[livid shell]

If you have them you could give a try too

[twilit lintel]

i have to add neel lo.

[livid shell]

No you don’t need him .. I got so much juice I never spend .

[twilit lintel]

hmm

[livid shell]

May be give gg tal and Kahn a try if you could . But try getting ent e crew life’s easy with them

[twilit lintel]

but i can get so much if i had a loot crew

[livid shell]

Mines 33k .. yeah it wouldn’t matter much with neelix unless you love doing voy everyday

[little violet]

I use Ent E picard, Neelix and 5/11 with chapel and hugh below

[livid shell]

Yep . Easy 10k 8472 loot back home per hull.

Mine is still a t4 voy 😂😂

[twilit lintel]

8472 ..

[twilit lintel]

i got no missions to do so why not lol

[grand patio]

@heady moon can we get the 2000 pve limit increased?

[near bloom]

Why? 👀

[gray lark]

That will go great with all the bots going around!

[quaint osprey]

It pains me to have the rods for my very first free treasury but there's no officer shards in it this go around 🥲🫠

[near bloom]

I don’t think that is all of it.

[patent granite]

w h a t

[coarse spruce]

👌

[mortal elk]

just hold for 2 weeks ish 😄

don't exchange them til you want to open the treasury, though

[quaint osprey]

Would I be able to turn my broken rods into a fixed in and save the fixed one for next time

And ik my best option is to hold off but ofc when I can finally do it they offer a subpar one 😅😂

[mortal elk]

No

Absolutely not

broken rods persist

[quaint osprey]

Wait really? That's dumb as hell

[mortal elk]

claimed/purchased rods are specifically for the treasury that you redeem them during

[quaint osprey]

Broken rods it is 😂

[mortal elk]

It's because you could pay for a £5 one, then the following month get the next rank of treasury

so the rods are specific to each month

[quaint osprey]

Isn't the treasury $100

Or 100 pounds for those across the pond lol

[mortal elk]

Now, there are a number of people who've made the mistake, redeemed, had it decay, and gotten back the broken rods through CS, but I'd hate to be the first person to not get that 😄

It has different tiers of value

if you see someone complaining about 3* mats in the treasury at 40+, it's because they're FTP 😄

or, for whatever reason have the FTP treasury tier

[quaint osprey]

I've only seen a $100 option and I haven't seen any signs of tiers

[mortal elk]

it's like 5, 20 and 100

but yeah, that's the reason they decay

don't be like those guys, save the broken rods 😂

[quaint osprey]

The treasury gets better as you level the building I believe so if they are getting 3* stuff mainly at 40+ they need to level the building I'd wager 😂

[mortal elk]

nope

ops and spend

[quaint osprey]

The info button in the treasury says it's based on treasury building level

[mortal elk]

then the tooltip lies

but also... where does it say that?

[quaint osprey]

I swear I've seen it somewhere but ofc when I go to look for it I can't find it

[mortal elk]

each treasury has a variable number of tiers (they started at 4, think they've played with 2, 3 and I think we had a single tier one recently - lots of people on the top 'value')
Ops says what you can get in each of the tiers, and initial spend, or number of previously paid for treasuries determines which tier you get

once you get the big one, you'll always have the big one AFAIK

[quaint osprey]

How can I check which tier I have available?

[mortal elk]

rod in the cash store is a dead give away on that 😄

if it's the hundo pack, you're up on the top tier

[quaint osprey]

I'm ops 33 and I'll send a quick screen record of the rewards I would get

[mortal elk]

to this, wherre you're in g3 levels... the 'ship part' ones mid-arc are going to be a bad option for you, as you can always use lat for parts

[mortal elk]

yeah, that's top tier, the 1.5m lat 🙂

Usually they're around 1.5x the contents (mat wise) of an ultra pack of your level

plus some extra bits

[quaint osprey]

Yeah I'm definitely not super enticed by the ship parts lmao my saladin has the big weapon to upgrade and then it will be maxed out and it need 3k parts so 700 would put a small dent in that and lat would be the rest

[shy hamlet]

you can just grind out the 3* parts

hit a bunch of interceptors

[quaint osprey]

I was kinda disappointed that I finally built up the mats to max it out but ran out of interceptor parts 😅

[shy hamlet]

like swarm

[mortal elk]

I don't like using the word 'value', but the best value is usually in the officer shards if they're officers you want/like

[shy hamlet]

yeah, because sometimes it's officers with no/rare other sourcing

[quaint osprey]

Yeah I am gonna be purging the swarm here real soon I'm getting klingon locked and then I'm gonna take a break from rep grinding

[mortal elk]

the ship parts + trit treasuries like this one are more for people in g5/6 where we're always thirsty for them....

[quaint osprey]

I noticed this one has a lot more tritanium and I normally see a lot more parsteel in them

[shy hamlet]

if you notice the materials split this one is based off a battleship pack instead of something balanced like a research or station pack

research based treasuries are heavy dil

[errant elk]

Last treasure waa decent for me ops40 ftp. This one not so much because I don't need battleship stuff yet

[shy hamlet]

yeah, like Zabatiz said, before you're building g4/g5 ships, the ship part treasuries aren't really worth much compared to the officer ones

even right now i'm not enamored by the ship part treasuries because i need survey parts the most and those are conspicuously absent.

[fathom mesa]

Wow 33s are already getting 1.5m lat. Back then I was happy to have like 300k

[quaint osprey]

Most I've ever had at one time was 125k and that was from buying a flash pass points pack 😅

Best $20 I have spent in the game other than for an extra builder

The elite daily resource reward things that have been available through the compensation currency give me about 35k lat and those are crazy helpful I sunk a lot of it into research and getting buildings caught up

I don't ever do the instant button bc it's almost always cheaper to start the timer and then use lat to tick it down

[mortal elk]

yep, instant buys all the RSS and materials at the same time as the speedups

which is why you can't use it on parts/builds/etc that have UC+ or special currency

[quaint osprey]

Definitely a quick way to run out of lat while doing less

[timid spindle]

Testing something

Bejabbers

Numpty

Pilloch

Hmm

[shy hamlet]

are you testing the filter 🤔

[timid spindle]

Yeah trying to figure out why it censored those when used in a sentence

But individually

They passed

[mortal elk]

not seeing anything in the log

when did you try ?

[timid spindle]

Was a while ago, just came back and saw it

[mortal elk]

is that like a scottish pillock? 👀

[timid spindle]

Yes

[mortal elk]

yeah, apparently it was that one

Oh

that's why

[timid spindle]

Tf

So you can't say lock with two ll's

[shy hamlet]

for some reason this discord isn't exclusively catering to me as a US-based player and thus censors some non-US profanity

[mortal elk]

spherical objects, sir, spherical objects 😂

[timid spindle]

I don't think those are censored

[mortal elk]

the * either side is to catch variations on the word 😂 , but that's also one of the rules we don't have control over

[timid spindle]

Yep can't say that

[quaint osprey]

For some reason scopely censors suck but not sucks

[timid spindle]

There's a lot of plurals they missed

[quaint osprey]

And they censor 3p specifically, not 1p-9p just a 3 and P together

[timid spindle]

Alright that I don't get

I wonder what other weird things are censored

I must do research

[quaint osprey]

Neither do I especially bc I have a Portuguese speaking Brazilian guy in my alliance and there's not anything that does any sort of translation so I doubt it's a curse phrase in another language

[timid spindle]

I just found a list of all the normal banned words

Tempted to copy and paste it

See if it makes the bot have a stroke

[errant elk]

Crash the server, be the hero we need but don't deserve

[timid spindle]

I'm not sure what that would achieve

It's just discord

If you want to crash a server you need only organize a large group photo in a system

They can only hold so many

[errant elk]

How many is so many 👀

I'm joking i wouldn't ruin it for everyone else.

[quaint osprey]

That would definitely not be too fun 😂

Man I wish I could actually participate in wave defenses and not just sit around and watch everyone else do everything

[timid spindle]

That's googlable

But back to the previous topic

[dull mason]

Conkers lol

[timid spindle]

I did some testing and if you lob 4000 characters of curse words at the filter it gives up and lets them all pass

[patent granite]

I have almost 15

[sudden robin]

.

[quaint osprey]

15 gigs of what?!

Unless you make videos regularly or something that's crazy

[patent granite]

Pictures.

[quaint osprey]

I have 4 gigs of pics and vids and most of it is memes

[patent granite]

I save a lot of stuff from my drawing software

almost 6,000 photos as well

[quaint osprey]

Damn you save a lot of stuff or it's really detailed 😂

[patent granite]

Former

[timid spindle]

For reference I was talking about in game 😂

[quaint osprey]

Ik they would have a heart attack with the censoring they would put in place but scopely should really either let you send pictures or just integrate discord into the game and then bam the chats instantly 10000 times better

[stoic crow]

That’s a lot of porn 🥸

[near bloom]

Well, I don’t, but the Reverb really is nasty.

[near bloom]

[civic geyser]

Just waiting for allies helps

[near bloom]

Ballers don’t wait so they have to donate to the alliance for their dailies.

[near bloom]

Gz!

[mortal elk]

straight to 41! 😄

[queen jolt]

straight to 42!

[mortal elk]

no, save 42 for when a useful spend event comes up, that's when it starts using UC mats 😄

game also starts expecting you to be punching with a new ship at that point, so worth ensuring you can go to shipyard 42 and get a new shiny at the same time 😉

[civic geyser]

lol no point rushing I’m a bit behind on faction rep

[queen jolt]

https://tenor.com/view/do-it-what-are-you-waiting-for-determined-angry-gif-5247874

[mortal elk]

go to 41, start building up uncommons

by the time you have the rep, there's a good chance you'll have the faction credits and materials all lined up in a row

[civic geyser]

Rd now being built

[proper jackal]

Our ascension

Sorry

[dull mason]

What ever it is, it'll be scrapping the Barrel...

[proper jackal]

[near bloom]

52!

[proper jackal]

53 >

[near bloom]

But seriously this.

God knows Zab’s done it enough times.

[mortal elk]

only done that step twice? I think

I hope

😐

[proper jackal]

Alright question question. SMK, 56K, or CJ7 for armadas.

[near bloom]

Scrapping the B’rel?

[near bloom]

Full loot crew

[proper jackal]

Can't unfortunately 🥲

Punch ups pay dramatically more

[near bloom]

56K with Torres down low then.

I miss my Torres. 🥲

[proper jackal]

Mines not maxed

[near bloom]

Permahullbreach

Mine was, put a LOT into her

Worth every bit of loot and auction effort

And a couple of packs 😬

Maybe a few

[proper jackal]

I cant remember the last time I saw her in the store tbh

[near bloom]

But mostly a couple

[proper jackal]

Having her and or harry maxed would be veryyy nicee

[near bloom]

Harry I’d got to T4, he was my next target

[mortal elk]

context... what ship, and with or without friends?

[dull mason]

The event is death to the federation...

This is the mirror universe Arc so it should be 👉🏼
death to the Terrains empire..!

[proper jackal]

Pillum. Without

Fkr

[near bloom]

Loot crew, make ship bigger

Default answer

[mortal elk]

Chakotay, Janeway, Miles

[near bloom]

Max Fortify, Doritos, Defiant, Loot Crew

[proper jackal]

Imagine I don't have titan 🤣

[mortal elk]

Whatever Torres you have + paris/doc below

[near bloom]

My Pilum did 51Es 😂

Was it 51E? I’m sure it was.

[proper jackal]

This was my most recent try

[near bloom]

It didn’t need half those boosts for the rares.

[mortal elk]

breach is nice, but honestly just throwing out crits from Chakotay + the extra shots is better

[near bloom]

Ahhh, you’re hitting G6 ones.

[proper jackal]

No G5

[mortal elk]

I think you'll struggle soloing them with a pilum

[near bloom]

Sorry, I know what I meant - the next ones up 😂 I don’t think you’re doing that with a Pilum short of T9/T10

[mortal elk]

unless your cerri/titan/defiant research is top notch

[proper jackal]

Ik but it's the easiest to test with. And if it happens I'll be ecstatic

[near bloom]

Maxed all of them 🥲 god dammit

[mortal elk]

titan is lagging here, but I have the important bits maxed for level 😂

[proper jackal]

Might try with full buffs excluding titan 🤣

[mortal elk]

how come no titan? 👀

[proper jackal]

I cba spending 100 on it

And I was gonna get it this event store... but fc slot

[near bloom]

At Ops 49 my Pilum was hitting harder than a team mate’s T5 Vor’Cha at 55 😂

[mortal elk]

you went from 37 to 50 in <100 days? 👀

[proper jackal]

39-50 in a bit over 40?

👀

[near bloom]

At Ops 53 it was hitting harder than a Sompy 😂

[dull mason]

You might have over cooked it, a little.... 🤔🤔

[proper jackal]

Can't do that because I'm ops locked :p

[mortal elk]

and you can't spare 100 for a ship? 😂

[proper jackal]

I don't see the value in it tbh

[near bloom]

I would agree with that

[proper jackal]

Whatever buff it might give me. 100 could be better spent somewhere else where it's not f2p able

I'll wait for the next event store and occasionally grab it from the borg store when I remember

[near bloom]

The buff ship mechanic was done and dusted after Defiant, the Titan was “meh” compared.

Defiant was beefcake

[mortal elk]

there's an argument that says 39->50 in 40 days isn't f2pable too 😉

I use it more than the defiant, personally

[dull mason]

⬆️

[near bloom]

It isn’t, but it doesn’t mean he’ll buy just anything

[proper jackal]

Buying stuff that isn't accessible for f2p

[mortal elk]

because most of the research applies to all hostiles, and not just armadas

[proper jackal]

Buy a station pack or some random efficiency that gives the same mats

[mortal elk]

so it gets trotted out for Q hostiles when I want to push those a bit further

[near bloom]

Who uses buffs for hostiles?

[proper jackal]

Qs trials

I do 🤣

[mortal elk]

he doesn't know about q hostiles

[near bloom]

I do

I’ve not been gone that long, jeez.

Should you not have to moderate that?

Mildly inappropriate gif 😂

I thought you were going to go for a Billy Butcher gif and then we’d all be in trouble.

[proper jackal]

Maybe i should've read the research....

[mortal elk]

I still need to watch through the boys at some point 😂

[mortal elk]

the only armadas I can't solo now are the lv60 ones 🤣

[proper jackal]

At what ops

[mortal elk]

59 tbf

[near bloom]

Sending it to you

Not here cos even I’d ban me for it

[proper jackal]

Could be me... if yk scopely ascended us

[mortal elk]

+crit damage (and chance) are good from the defiant, but they get a little bit swamped by other things now. Main thing it's good for is the first round crits now, Chakotay/etc work well past that point 😦

[mortal elk]

I'm guessing that it's ~40 days since they did the g4 ascension?

[proper jackal]

No it's been longer

We ascended may

[mortal elk]

oh, so a couple of months

many pushing into g4?

[proper jackal]

We have 20 ops 50s. More than a server that ascended last month

[mortal elk]

yikes

I'll ask the question 🙂

[proper jackal]

I've been bugging sim about it as much as I can

[queen jolt]

Sorry Starkiller - no news yet for ascension

[proper jackal]

But the more the merrier

💀💀💀💀

21 ops 50s🥲

Vs server 104 who have been ascended a month have 27 now

And they had 14 last month

[opal turret]

Hey, I dont see in the event calendar. This sautrday we will have material spend event or not this time?

@queen jolt You have any info about it? ☝️

but not sure on who/what

Does anyone know at what ops lvl the Kelvin becomes available to buy as am ops 42 now and its still not available for me

[proper jackal]

Get your rep up

If you can't buy it in the faction store you can't buy it the main store

[unique hemlock]

Of course yes fed rep needs to go up to next lol, thanks, I'm not far away, heavy transports here I come 😁👍

[warped finch]

Who is the arc runner so we can more direct our dislike of galaxy quest?

[mortal elk]

those guys are fine, by the time you have an fkr ship that gets to them 😄

[wet anchor]

That one is sneaky, you have to base in the next system to reach with a 53 ship 🙂

[mortal elk]

the uncommon 60s are 9.2bn 🤣

it's a weird and sudden jump in power

[mortal elk]

well, that would be against the rules of the server and making personal attacks...

so, I'd suggest strongly against it

[warped finch]

Not a personal attack hating galaxy quest and wanting it changed. Arc runner needs to get that message.

[mortal elk]

🤷‍♂️ it's not like the star trek side of the game is anything but a veneer at this point anyway

[warped finch]

Then Arc runner can get busy replacing galaxy quest veneer with something that would pass as star trek.

[mortal elk]

Pretty sure they can't change 3-6 months of work in 1-2 weeks, you're just going to have to deal with it in whatever way you see fit (ideally within the rules of this discord)

No more so than they changed tack on Lower Decks when people came out of the wood work complaining about kiddy cartoons in their totally adult game 😉

[warped finch]

A 'modder' coud swap out the art assets in a few hours. It's pretty simple for scopley because things are just place holders in development anyways.

[mortal elk]

well, go on then 🤷‍♂️

[warped finch]

The biggest annoyance is I bet they made a god awful splash art page on load for galaxy quest like they do every arc. So anyways, make sure the arc runner gets on it chop chop.

[mortal elk]

nah, this is going to be too entertaining

[burnt briar]

He's here for the drama

[mortal elk]

And I'm really looking forward to the prodigy arc if/when that arrives

[burnt briar]

🤣🤣🤣

[mortal elk]

No freedom of speach much

[mortal elk]

Do I look like a government body?

[burnt briar]

U act like one

🙄

[mortal elk]

Well that makes no sense at all, because if I acted like a governmental body... freedom of speech would apply

Luckily for me, I'm neither American or a civil servant 😂

[mortal elk]

right, lunch

[burnt briar]

U in gb ?

[gilded turret]

It's on E4 on Sunday in UK apparently

[warped finch]

Next arc is still 2 weeks away, I think scopley announced galaxy quest so early to gauge opinion and change if they had to. Every other arc they might tell us the night before.

[silver parcel]

early

[thorn fjord]

Not change, adjust projections so they can reduce server bandwidth accordingly

[silver parcel]

If it's announced, it's already done

People really don't understand development cycles.

[thorn fjord]

Or reality, or a whole bunch of things

[warped finch]

and art assets are easily replaced. The art doesn't even load right half the time you start the game anyways.

[thorn fjord]

I’ll just quote part of the 2nd sentence on the entirely made up Wiki page, “A parody of and homage to science-fiction films and series, especially Star Trek and its fandom”. Seems a fair match for a crossover to me, far more so than some of the comic crossovers that exist.

[warped finch]

TNG Mirror universe based on a comic did surprise me, but star trek comics were big and popular at the time. I never got into them myself, but there could be a lot of good star trek content there that would fit into stfc.

[tough vapor]

After GQ, anything could "fit"

[vapid onyx]

They "announced it early" so they could judge how quickly they should start sending out resumes since they are alienating 50% of their player-base who continue to play purely because they love Star Trek despite the stability issues and money-grab complaints ... so now introducing something NOT Star Trek and trying to pass it off by saying "even the actors like GQ" is going to backfire.

[burnt briar]

New twist disney buys out scopley and adds new jedi content lol

[opal turret]

I bet actors like some marvel movie too, when I can fly with a spiderman ship? kappa

[mortal elk]

Spiderman has had cars and bikes and planes for decades 🤷

[burnt briar]

No space ship tho

[opal turret]

[burnt briar]

He be away teams lol

[mortal elk]

Spiderverse probably has something, and the gundam style mech was close 😬

[warped finch]

iron man and fantastic four would ferry them in their space ships

[vapid onyx]

Rev mentioned how "Doctor Who" was technically Parton the Star Trek cannon because of some comic books .... so apparently just scribble a picture of Spidey swinging in front of Star Fleet Academy and you're GOLDEN

[mortal elk]

Gimme 40k

Nova cannon to the face of the enterprise, yes please 🤣

[warped finch]

Comics used to occasionally do bizarre one off cross overs, but they were usualy like the 'what if' series and didn really happen

[mortal elk]

Still do

[tough vapor]

<@&509690795536941056>
Have you guys over there at $copely HQ ever thought about stop pushing out new content compulsively for a month or two, anf focusing a LOT MORE on making players happy?

[vapid onyx]

I'm a fan of Farscape ... I'm a fan of Battlestar Galactica ... I'm a fan of Firefly .... but I don't wanna see them in my STAR TREK game!

[hot dove]

Its all about making shareholders happy, not players.

[vapid onyx]

And how "happy" will they be when they lose 50% of their player-base?

[civic geyser]

Happy players = happy shareholders surely

[tough vapor]

Happy players are willing to buy more stuff in store which leads to more income, which makes shareholders happy.
Or am I wrong?

[warped finch]

I'm sure scopely thought we'd like galaxy quest. But that means they need to have player surveys on what from star trek would you like in a future arc.

[fair sable]

If the prices were lower there shar holders would make more; because, not everyone who plays can payout $107.00 for items.

[bitter temple]

If the GQ officers have great abilities... or abilities that are clones but let others catch-up it'll go over well... if these abilities are crap... they'll get ignored and we'll move on

Seems painful slow

[mortal elk]

feesha or OG?

arrock on a feesha is like a 100/hr difference

[twilit lintel]

[silver parcel]

you put arrock on a faction miner with ful synergy so it mines like an early tier feesha

[mortal elk]

arrock is for concentrated lat 🙂

[twilit lintel]

takes so long to upgrade this ship

and i dont know if i have enough game cash to buy it

fresha

then i look at this

[civic geyser]

Tell me about it 🤣

[twilit lintel]

at least u got him lol

[civic geyser]

This one 🤣not sure if they were trolling us

At least it drops to 10% at max tier

Once you get the Ferengi Whip FT on your Feesha, it won't matter which officer you put on bridge.

Once you got good enough miners you’ll have the pc in spite of fess

how u get that

Is the NX price going to be adjusted for the next event store?
It's a bit expensive this time round. (Meaning it's insanely ridiculously unbelievable stupendously over priced currently.)

[bitter temple]

arc store in 2 months confirmed.. CQ will be a 2 month...

incursion store ONLY incursions are the BEST incursions

take this bag nerd, we're going to voyager space

[queen jolt]

I don't have an answer yet since we haven't seen the event store, but I'll take note of this feedback to pass on to the team for consideration

[solemn plaza]

Considering as F2P getting 180k was a struggle. Getting anywhere near the 700k for the NX was laughable.

Event stores used to be for F2P ans low spenders to obtain premium ships, or atleast significantly speed up the process of acquiring them. As it is now, we'd have to 4 event stores to get 1 ship, provided we didn't buy anything else, which then causes other issue for sourcing other things.

[late pawn]

NX Already has an easy f2p path, so there's that.

[solemn plaza]

Yes but 700k for a ship is ludicrous.
Consider that you could have bought, BC, Voyager, Monaveen and had left over for the same amount of credits.

[late pawn]

Sure. But buying in the event store isn't the only way.

And the current way is way cheaper than say .. the Monaveen

[silver parcel]

360k for the ion particle, which sold in a pack for 49.99 is ludicrous

[solemn plaza]

Didn't say it. Just said it's way too expensive.

[solemn plaza]

NX is $150, or $600 worth of event credits.

[silver parcel]

nx has other sourcing though, the particle does not.

so grabbing the nx is just a preamble to hitting your head against a wall.

just about everything on there is overpriced, which makes it hilarious that they continue to reduce the amount of currency you can get.

[late pawn]

Yeah, I'd say the NX shouldn't be fully sourced from the Event Store, if you are, you're doing it wrong.

Just like Faction ships. Buying them in the event store is possible. But it's not wise.

[solemn plaza]

Couldn't even buy half of it. Barely able to 1/3 of it.

Point is...it's too expensive.

[silver parcel]

I still remember my first event store, was able to get syndicate to level 5, unlock o'brien, finish the jelly and northstar bps that I already earned

[late pawn]

Should be doubled.

[silver parcel]

and still had leftover currency

[late pawn]

They won't make that mistake again.

[solemn plaza]

NX is 3× the BC.... what's next the eviscerator is 2.1mill credits and F2P can only get 100k

[late pawn]

NX-01 only takes 100 days to get F2P, fairly easily.

I'll get the Gorn Eviscerator the same way.. through Weekly events

I won't wast event store credits.

The only ones that are worth using event store credits are the Monaveen, because the F2P sourcing takes forever and is extremely expensive.

And the Meridian is good from the event store as well.

[silver parcel]

with the meridian service, would be a waste to use event currency on it now

[solemn plaza]

Both Meridian and Monaveen are easier to get than the NX

[late pawn]

The "Service" uses a lot of the territory currency that I'd rather use on research

I forget how much since we don't have territory right now. But I remember looking and deciding against it.

[late pawn]

The NX is super easy to get F2P.

[solemn plaza]

The Meridian service is not expensive at all.

[late pawn]

Just a daily claim for a tiny bit of exborg

[late pawn]

think it was something like 20-30k last I looked for each claim? Didn't see if there's a cooldown on it.

Had a Merdian before that was a service anyways.

[solemn plaza]

It's like 90k for 20 BPs. Has a week cool down. So 5 weeks to get the ship.

[late pawn]

Also the NX is a lot newer. I wouldn't be surprised if the price is adjusted later on.

The Voyager is super cheap on the Event store.

[solemn plaza]

Yeah but getting the rep to get the BPs is a slog.
Grinding the xindi for the scraps sucks.

[late pawn]

You'll need the rep anyways to build it, I would imagine.

Maybe not, but seems silly not to. It was pretty easy to get the rep.

[late pawn]

Only if you're grinding the 35's.

I did that for a bit, before I could hit the bigger Xindi.

[solemn plaza]

Even grinding the 40s it sucks.

Unless you have "Premium" crews the xindi grind is pita

[late pawn]

That's the game.

Get bigger is really the only way to make grinds easier.

[solemn plaza]

So wanting to use the event stores to reduce the time is reasonable. Having the ship as expensive as it is, is unreasonable.

[late pawn]

(Almost) all crews are f2p sourced. Although some slower than others.

[solemn plaza]

Most of the F2P sourcing for officers is horrific.
Either pools are too diluted/don't give enough shards or are locked behind premium ships/events.

[late pawn]

I have most of the officers, not all maxed. But most... and I don't buy officers. I do get a bit of a boost because I do get the $19.99 BPs.

[civic geyser]

If you need to ask you can’t afford

[solemn plaza]

And if you missed Arcs for most of those officers, the sourcing for them sucks.

You need alot of the officers to be able to actually do the things to be able to source them.

[pastel ridge]

I like how 800 independent credits cost 40k latinum

[solemn plaza]

All faction creds have same cost. 50:1 lat:credit.

[dull mason]

Should I just jump on the 24'ish defiant BP'S now or wait for the end total of credits?
Also I'm hoping for a second Amalgam

[late pawn]

I don't disagree with the "missed arcs" problem. Have argued about that for a while.

[pastel ridge]

that’s crazy

why is it so expensive

also cool to know

[late pawn]

The Defiant kinda sucks.. But if you need it, there are no more "Credit Events" so spend as needed.

[dull mason]

Old Arc's could be made into Long missions so player's can catch up on " special supplies/ship's..!?
@heady moon @queen jolt

[late pawn]

Something like that needs to happen to be able to at a minimum get the F2P amount that are given during Arcs

[dull mason]

Sadly the event store crew recruitment is very poor

[crisp nest]

have u tried to trade ur charged nanoprobes for indi credits, i get like 1700 a day

[solemn plaza]

Isomatter officer chest is great. But the best/easiest/ most efficient way to get the loot is by using the officers in that chest.
Without the officers in the chest getting the Isomatter is a struggle.

[crisp nest]

that would mean QOL, and tyhey woudl rather give unwanted content instead of improving the game

[light heart]

Simple solution. Buy less. This game is no longer worth spending on anyway

[late pawn]

I only get Iso from Ex-Borg anymore.

[late pawn]

This isn't a purchase thing.

[solemn plaza]

Isomatter isn't in Exborg.

[late pawn]

I get all of my Iso from Ex-borg.

I don't mine it anymore.

[light heart]

Sure it is. You use the ex Borg to get the iso, refine the iso for the iso matter

[late pawn]

And refine from there.

[solemn plaza]

Isomatter isn't in borg

[pastel ridge]

40 for 800 doesn’t seem worth it

[dull mason]

I don't have any ISO,
emulsion or Resin
Too much hassle

[late pawn]

All of the mats to refine are in Ex-borg........ I'm not sure what you are arguing.

[light heart]

Yes it is. Ex-Borg, as was stated, not Borg.

[crisp nest]

its just one of the only other ways i know to get it free

[solemn plaza]

This isn't in Exborg

Volatile Isomatter isn't in exborg.

[late pawn]

That's Volatile Isomatter

That's all Gorn farming and Eviscerator.

That's not Isomatter.

[grizzled ridge]

isomatter is literally the title of that refinery lol

[solemn plaza]

It kinda is though

[pastel ridge]

ig I’m gonna have to wait to get grush leveled up

[crisp nest]

how big is your vidart?

[pastel ridge]

t4

[late pawn]

I missed the "Officer Chest" thing and focused on Isomatter. But I'm not sure if I believe that chest is great. It's ok.

[crisp nest]

id be pushing to get thatthing lvled as fast as u can

[pastel ridge]

I am

[solemn plaza]

It's better than the Rare formation recruit chest.

[solemn plaza]

And no. You're thinking;
Isogen which is refined into Iso-emulsion which can then be exchanged for Iso resin.

Isomatter is exclusively obtained from gorn.

[pastel ridge]

btw does anyone have any tips for beating q’s trials? I’m stuck on the 700k power ones and my strongest ship is around 650k

I want to try getting the FT for the vi’dar

[late pawn]

A lot depends on crew.

[solemn plaza]

PMC or PMT depending on hostile type

[pastel ridge]

what

[late pawn]

Remember that Q Hostiles are not Yellow Hostiles, so all hostile crews work on them.

[solemn plaza]

Pike, Moreau, Chen/Tlaan.

[pastel ridge]

I don’t have pike

[solemn plaza]

Get pike.

[pastel ridge]

I’m trying to get him

I have about 60 for him

[solemn plaza]

He'll make alot of things alot easier.

He's a bum to get.

[late pawn]

Pike Moreau Chen is good for the early ones.

[solemn plaza]

game changing when you do get him

[tough vapor]

Pike-Moreau-Tlaan is mainly against interceptors Pike-Moreau-Chen is against all else.

[civic geyser]

And when you get Borg probe or swarms on Q trials don’t be afraid to use Vidar or Franklin , took me awhile to figure that

[pastel ridge]

cool

now if only I get borg probes as my hostiles

[late pawn]

And also don't be afraid to try your main ship, if it's much bigger. My Franklin-A is Ops Lock Maxed, and my Kelvin does better against some of them.

[civic geyser]

I’m old 🤣

[sturdy umbra]

Are they planning to provide 30 day shields for the galaxy quest arc? I'd rather skip all that.

[solemn plaza]

Yup $100

[kindred echo]

What’s this?

[pastel ridge]

the bucket summer ship store

[sturdy umbra]

I will not purchase another item if they plan on polluting trek with low tier scifi.

[civic geyser]

A Store item

[pastel ridge]

it’s a good movie but why do they keep crossing everything over

[kindred echo]

Yes I know but how do we get tokens?

[pastel ridge]

idk

[solemn plaza]

Have to buy token in store.
Let's you get a $100 ship for $50

[kindred echo]

Just checked store, don’t have those packs 🫤

[solemn plaza]

Did you look in the correct tab?

[kindred echo]

Yeah, not there

[modest echo]

There is a HUGE missed opportunity for the token store. There should have been half Gorn Eviscerator claim for token (or half Eviscerator pack for 49) as today is the day where FTP way of sourcing Eviscerator got us over 100 shards. There sure are players that would get the other half for half price

[sturdy umbra]

Wow that store front looks like the STEAM store for brands new AAA games

[civic geyser]

Probably ops level

[kindred echo]

Probably aye

[late pawn]

It's too early. They just added the NX-01. The Eviscerator is at least 1 arc away

[solemn plaza]

Not that it'll matter. It'll be too expensive for anyone to buy it 🤣🤣🤣

[modest echo]

Not event store, the summer blueprint token which is pay only

[late pawn]

A half-paid pack, then yeah.. They missed an opportunity there.

I wouldn't buy it, but I'm certain there are people who would.

I'll just stick it out lol

[glossy granite]

So has there been any summary on the leaks in the livestream?

[late pawn]

https://tenor.com/view/galaxy-quest-never-never-give-up-gif-4398729

[glossy granite]

And I assume all the comments about Galaxy Quest is real? Wow...

Might actually quit...

[sturdy umbra]

Right

[glossy granite]

Well done scopely, bugs and lags have not removed me from the game, but this will...

[sturdy umbra]

Pretty disconnected from the player base

[glossy granite]

I just don't have the time for discord usually, irl priorities

Forgive me for letting discord collect dust in the corner

[late pawn]

He's saying adding GQ is pretty disconnected from player base. Not you.

[sturdy umbra]

Not you, the introduction of galaxy quest.

[glossy granite]

Oh

Yea

Right sorry

😂

Its 2am and I dont know what I'm typing

[warm shuttle]

It's awesome how no one in scopely thought Galaxy Quest could be a bad idea and we're still in "wait this isn't a joke?" loop after a few days

[solemn plaza]

The games pretty disconnected from the server most of them time. What hope you think the company going to have connect to its player base.

[late pawn]

I don't think there's an outpouring of "Great idea!" for GQ. Mostly it's either "Meh" .. "I like it just fine." .. "It doesn't matter." .. "UGH." ...

Haven't heard a lot of people saying "BEST IDEA EVER."

[glossy granite]

Bruh if someone goes and develops a better Star Trek game I would bet that whales would sponsor it just to avoid the mess that is Scopely

[sturdy umbra]

I'm trying to come to grips with it not being a joke

[warm shuttle]

The joke is on us 🤣

[late pawn]

I checked to make sure it wasn't April 1st.

[sturdy umbra]

But given it is a paramount property, I'm beginning to fear They're turning this game into an advertisement for a streaming service.

In b4 we see pop-up ads for paramount +

[late pawn]

I feel Paramount may be pushing GQ on Scopely.. To make GQ viable from a revenue standpoint, so Skydance doesn't cancel the Galaxy Quest TV Series in the works.

[sturdy umbra]

Good. Give more money to Dean devlin

And others actually out there making scifi, not farces

[warm shuttle]

The day this game puts adds inside the game, I'm just not even bothering to complain, I'm just leaving

[sturdy umbra]

I get the officer pop ups more common than I'd like

[glossy granite]

Thats utter bull, as if the stfc community is big enough to keep a whole tv series afloat, and thats assuming stfc players would watch the show just to learn about non star trek lore

[sturdy umbra]

"Get troi! Get ezri!"

[sturdy umbra]

Hence the disconnect; they're not overlapping sci-fi at all

[late pawn]

Has nothing to do with that. It has to do with Scopely pays Paramount a "License Fee" for the property. Therefore now Galaxy Quest has an income stream that isn't tied to any Shows that haven't released yet.

[warm shuttle]

I mean in the sense of "watch a video to double your mining speed for X hours" like a bunch of games do

[sturdy umbra]

So it was probably dirt cheap or paid to use ip

We did deals back in the day where advertisers would pay to sell their own products so... could be that

[late pawn]

TBH if done right, I'd do that before I pay actual cash for a lot of things. lol

[glossy granite]

If STFC was a separate IP by itself and brought in a big IP like Stargate collab with some game that I don't rmb anymore then maybe I would give two 💩s about

[sturdy umbra]

Sg1? Don't tease.

[glossy granite]

That collab was from a few years back with some other sci fi base building game

[sturdy umbra]

That would be at least close to relevant sci-fi. Picard and Daniel would be best friends.

[glossy granite]

I think astrokings or something

[sturdy umbra]

Picard would quit star fleet, chase his archeology dreams

[glossy granite]

Lol, discuss chateau picard wine

[sturdy umbra]

Teal'c meets worf. Please

[glossy granite]

I wonder what would paramount's reaction be to the lowest revenue in all updates lol

[mortal elk]

That would play out similarly to Teal'c meeting Ronan 🤣

[sturdy umbra]

Indeed.

[glossy granite]

Its like what I tell my gacha friends, if the update aint good, just skip and play for the dailies, then when they finally launch something good, then maybe consider playing for real lol

They need a reboot with 21st century CGI lololol

Lore wise is pretty good, but the CGI... After watching so much big production scifi I can't stand the old CGI lol, if it even can be called that

[crisp nest]

[late pawn]

I still watch SG-1. The "CGI" is fine. Everything doesn't have to be perfect to get the story.

Characters are good. I mean people watch "The Ark", even enough to get it another season, and that's awful. Script is bad, characters are bad, cgi is bad, story is bad.

[gray pawn]

@late pawn shut up 🤫

[late pawn]

Are you saying you like "The Ark" ... or Hate SG-1?

[jade yarrow]

Every time a takeover happens I can’t kill reds

OH, send help lol 👀

[late ermine]

What is this ?

Nvm another pack store ?

Why not just buy the ship instead 😅

[winged vector]

To be honest i never cared about the CGI in the show since it was clear from the first day that the show can't keep up with what back then the movie had budget wise if it comes to the VFX. Remember reading about it that it was like less then the movie had for the first whole season and only adapted over time through the different seasons and/or incarnation of Stargate itself.

I would even go as far as to say that Stargate never was known for having an huge budget if it comes to the VFX.

[late pawn]

It didn't matter to me. Still loved it.

[winged vector]

Only got better over time if you look for example at Stargate Atlantis. The first two seasons had so cheap special effects that i was questioning why they even put those in those episodes.

[solemn plaza]

The ships are $100 each.
That pack the ships are $50 each.

[late ermine]

Ahh i see trying make a appel to some players who might need those 🙄 could be better if they added other ship like nxo1 , excavator

[solemn plaza]

They're too new. Can't make them cheaper yet. Maybe next year.

[winged vector]

Those Packs are for people that rush their OPs to 40 with that $99 Pack and then can't keep up with their low OP Ships to pull the dailies.

[random depot]

Are the DEVs of stfc.space in this group?

[winged vector]

They create an problem and then offer an resolution.

[late ermine]

Yup no wonder 1 nxo1 bp in event store cost 3500 full unlock is 700k we barely making end meats with 200k event store currency won a few slb and with top alliance lol

[sterile parcel]

Can someone please feed the hamster on server 162. The lag is unbearable

[winged vector]

So you pay $99 to rush your OP to 40, and then another $99 to get an ship that can keep up with you and...

[late ermine]

Just tag him 😂

[sterile parcel]

Needs his weetabix

[random depot]

Been trying to wrap my head around the aquatics and I figured out the problem finally - stfc.space has misinformation on them, It has them listed as 6 guns but it's actually 5. 3 smalls guns the go home gun with 30% to activate then the other go home for none NX ships.

[sterile parcel]

Think he’s worn out

[limber aurora]

Those 50 euro packs don't even show up in my store.

[solemn plaza]

There's 2 packs.
1 token for $50
2 tokens for $100

[limber aurora]

No packs here at all

[dusky cove]

Everyone hyped for mirror universe territory with G6 nodes, an expanded territory research tree which requires G4 iso and the meridia-ultimate or MU for short?

[winged vector]

Which OP Level do you have?.

[limber aurora]

34

[heady moon]

Wait! I'm here! Just been a little busy!

[limber aurora]

No summer packs. Oh well.

[winged vector]

Some of those are OP 40 Ships, the Packs only show up when you can actually start farming for those Parts. Don't remember if it require OP 38 or a bit below that.

[simple fulcrum]

Man lag is so bad.. maybe scopely could take those stupid videos out

[solemn plaza]

It's kinda funny. Shows the Talios on the pack but in the exchange it's the defiant.

[sterile parcel]

Can ya feed your fellow hamster who powers EU162 as the lag is horrendous on iOS PC WiFi and 5G

[heady moon]

Hey! They're not stupid!

[carmine frigate]

Are we ever gonna get quality over quantity???? Gotta kill Free/Jemmy, Gotta kill Stella plus armadas, gotta kill Klingons and Gorn. Come on, we need some quality control here! @heady moon @queen jolt

[limber aurora]

Uss voyager is 34 I think. It shows up in my event store

[heady moon]

What kind of lag are you seeing? Combat, chests...

[simple fulcrum]

Everything lagging

[winged vector]

Correct. I was talking about the Monaveen that was shown before.

[heady moon]

I'd say the Gorn arc is a good example of Quality over Qauntity. That grind is pretty streamlined.

[heady moon]

Will pass on!

[carmine frigate]

But having so many things to do every day is quantity. I mean i didnt mention the regular mining, plus iso mining plus any arc stuff and so on. It game needs to require less time not more

[winged vector]

I really believe that it's sometimes a hit and miss and that Scopely even if they try won't please everyone. I had events where i literally farmed three or more ships while had before that were i hardly managed to pull enough parts for an single ship. I can verify that they try to do as best as they can but sometimes it just don't work out for everyone equally. They probably will never please everyone 100% during those events and there will be always someone who will feel left out because they missed a ship/crewmember/.... by just a few points.

[sterile parcel]

Yeah combat lag and ghost ships.

[limber aurora]

Yeah, was mostly being sad/annoyed about not being able to skip some farming for 50 euro.
Guess I'll do it the hard way and spend the cash elsewhere

[solemn plaza]

Gorn don't exist for me. 👀

[winged vector]

Got everything else already?. All Research/Build/Repair Slots?.

[limber aurora]

Nope, but most of the quality of life upgrades I do have.

[winged vector]

I see. I mean you could always wait for the next sale i would say and till then stick with what you have currently.

[solemn plaza]

Can't farm them efficiently so I ignore them. Same with Silent stuff.

[buoyant scarab]

Unplayable eu131

[limber aurora]

Aye, that's the plan.

[sterile parcel]

I can do gorn 49 but none else. Can’t do G5 silent enemies efficiently without using a load of Corvus hulls.

[heady moon]

Well put. And I agree that most arcs will never please 100% of the peeps. Personally, I dug the MU arc, but I know not everyone did.

[heady moon]

Yeah silent Xindi aren't going to be doable till you have the NX. But for Gorn I just use my faction ship.

[near bloom]

Hey Hammy!

[winged vector]

Good. Stick with it and when you see something that you really benefit from consider your option, look up what events are coming up over the following weeks and then you can still decide to pay for it. Nobody is forcing you, you should always sleep a night over it before you make an investment.

[near bloom]

You not gone 41 yet?

[random depot]

NX don't work against Silent

[solemn plaza]

I don't have the crew to do it properly. And the best crew for Gorn you get from the gorn refinery.

[civic geyser]

No gotta level some generators and need the ore

[winged vector]

As far as i can tell you i got the feeling that the MU was at the beginning too costly for some and that's why there was such an backlash because the costs/benefits didn't equal the risks.

[random depot]

Silent easy with SNW or JW if you can't surive use Cerritos and Titan

[heady moon]

Yup. And I think we need to keep adding efficiencies with each new arc. Gorn did a good job withe XB expansion, and The Stella/Voyager/Mantis pulls in the MU refinery was pretty handy too.

[hardy tree]

Don't rush as there's no point rushing ops as its mostly more meh content which you have to decide for yourself whether to ignore or not like I ignore a gd chunk of the recent meh added as its to time consuming for the pitiful rewards

[heady moon]

Right. I was thinking Aquatic. I use my faction ship for Silent.

[civic geyser]

Need to make some of the older officers attainable

[near bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/barbie-movie-2023-barbie-barbie-movie-barbie-2023-wink-gif-15803423760244922692

[near bloom]

And the new ones. And the middle ones. Just go for all the ones.

Make all the officers attainable.

[heady moon]

Yeah, I could see that. But I think things got a lot better in this month. The daily chests of vouchers/trel D/rift keys was a good add.

[heady moon]

Which officers? From the gorn arc?

[heady moon]

https://tenor.com/view/smiling-barbie-margot-robbie-barbie-movie-grinning-gif-12615863594266892712

[hardy tree]

But not in the very diluted ultra pull tho as that's just a joke now with so many in there.

[winged vector]

You won't here any complain from me for this month.

[twilit lintel]

?

[heady moon]

Yeah.... Ultra is tricky. I'm glad we're adding new officers to it, but we should maybe remove some of the older ones too.

[near bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/goat-gif-18600890

[civic geyser]

Pretty much these older ones as every time they add more to the ultra recruit it makes it harder to source these

[hardy tree]

Make a 2nd one with the newer officers then players can choose which one to pull

[leaden heart]

Those officers are all in Transporter Patterns.

[main marten]

No, make multiple "ultra" pulls where people can target what they want. Removing sources of officers is bad.

Also, why not add more (everything more than a few months old) to transporterpatterns - and include more than just epic. At least rare, maybe UC and common too

[twilit lintel]

that odd moment when scopley put paid stuff i the free cash store ......

[near bloom]

Ohhhh no Geordie? All that loot 👀

[heady moon]

Oh yeah. The TNG arc is pretty old. Kinda surprised we don't have those sourced better.

[near bloom]

I'll be ~250k total by the end.

Unlikely to be even close. I'll be lucky to have 150k at the rate I'm getting it (and I've completed every sms)

[heady moon]

Wait! Does this count? #🌌-galaxy-chat message

[nimble stump]

How about some of the reeeeeeaally old officers that have zero sourcing. Like Jaylah/Tal/Harrison for instance. 😉

[heady moon]

Yeah.... what is goinhg on with Jaylah and Harrison. Tal I think I heard would be tricky. But those other too might be easier.

What say you chat? Do we want Jaylah and Harrison?

[heady moon]

https://tenor.com/view/in-pool-fail-gif-5312108

[civic geyser]

Have her and don’t really see any need now

[dusky cove]

I'm at 156k or so atm though my alliance did just finish the daily store AMS and I got some SLB placement rewards

[heady moon]

How much is it for the 3rd FC chair?

[dusky cove]

180k so that's my goal 🙂

[sterile parcel]

Too much

[heady moon]

Nice! I'd heard the third FC chair is hard but doable.

[dusky cove]

I rather suspect that there'll be a fairly large outcry here if too many people fall just short of getting the third slot so I hope the 180k is achievable without SLB/ALB placements being needed 😅

[nimble stump]

I think Hammy should give us all enough shards to max Jaylah so I don’t have to look at her non-maxxed officer. 😆

Plus levels for the Mess Hall are always needed. “Shakedown Cruise” officers??

[dusky cove]

24k to go and it looks like I'll get 12k from the shattered glass ALB so I imagine I'll be fine, especially if I do this weekends ticket events

ATAs 👀

[heady moon]

I like this, but might be tricky....

[dusky cove]

one thing I'm curious about, we can get 2 slots through the CC building, 1 from synd exp, 1 from store and 1 now. Does this one replace the store option or can we have 5 FC slots now :)?

[heady moon]

Replaces the store option.

[nimble stump]

Replaces the store one.

On top of the private one.

Docks!

[simple wadi]

Can't even place top 50 in slb's no way I get even nearly enough credits for the fc slot

[near bloom]

For the love of god, people need more docks. And not paid ones. The paid ones should be kept as a paid advantage, they need more too.

[crisp nest]

they just need to turn the other bays back on,as was the original designe

[fathom mesa]

Watch scopely add another Dock for G6 players now 😂

[fathom mesa]

I mean it's space they could be in any direction. Add one on top of the station

[exotic kraken]

I have a question , is there any difference between lvl 44 or lvl 45 on dailies and other things

[near bloom]

Yes

[fathom mesa]

Uhm I think borg solo refinery amounts change

[near bloom]

At 45 your daily hostiles go up a level.

[exotic kraken]

OK, then I’ll stay 44 for a little bit more

Thank you for the info

[fathom mesa]

Do you have to do silents already? They most likely will go up one

silents don't go up until 46
