FOR*

[dull mason]

I've sadly not completed the BB one

[warm pivot]

vidar one gives 100% net benefit when mastered, talios refinery will not change

[twilit lintel]

u dont need to

just do the vidar it will help big time

100% damage but is that base

[west matrix]

since when do base shield drop again upon ORDERING an attack?? and not upon the attack ACTUALLY happening???

[twilit lintel]

sounds like a #👾-bug-reporting

[dull mason]

10 minutes is the safety one

[twilit lintel]

10 mins?

[west matrix]

lol you missunderstood the isue xD

I had a shield up

[dull mason]

Yeah 🤣

[twilit lintel]

def a bug problem lol

[dull mason]

Another Scopley 🤡 Bug

[west matrix]

oh well... add it to the list xD

[warm pivot]

[west matrix]

also my ressources look kinda funny... upper right corner where I can see how much I have of each... looks kinda weird... much smaller font size than latinum in the other corner...

[coral notch]

Aaaaah, good to see someone picking up supernatural GIFs 🥹

[dull mason]

I'm maxed Augment and maxed Rogue

[terse jackal]

Great show

[twilit lintel]

eco

i never ask you or your company anything but can i plz ask this one time

[coral notch]

I never got to finish it even though I started watching it from day 1 when it aired on TV. This year picked it up again and slowly moved to season 10 now. It's like revisiting my teenage years.

[coral notch]

Ask for the first blade

Go on, do it

[earnest stone]

Did they announce any officer auctions or SMS this weekend?

[west matrix]

they did

[coral notch]

They will start dropping horizon BPs from epic armada chests to compensate for the missing time then 😭😭😭

[west matrix]

they also announced a Meta event for the Q-challanges xD

[earnest stone]

Epic Q or someone else?

[warm pivot]

starfleet q

not baguette and certainly not the party one either ^^

[earnest stone]

As long as it's not Jason Nesbit again ...

[gentle raft]

And no cloak

[earnest stone]

But it's free

Just don't build them

[warm pivot]

80 days for unlock... 80 days is a lot of progresstime for ops 29+, they certainly wont need em
(maxing botany with rare uranium ops lock)

[gentle raft]

Scooply is trying to correct the power of the strike teams

[earnest stone]

I mean you're right that they should just convert that to a refit but they never will

[earnest stone]

They already did that first with Carol Freeman and then with mu Picard

I mean I'm not saying that we don't need more PVP officers, we always need new crap

[little violet]

It is a visual glitch.. If you don't attack and restart the game the shield is still there

[earnest stone]

Just that that has nothing to do with how they will release the new officer, if they'll be in an SMS or if they will be pay only like the original strike team epics were

[gentle raft]

So this month is anti interceptor team, expect more in the next months

[earnest stone]

.... Ok? I don't think anybody was saying otherwise

[little violet]

little bit of research cut my ent D tier down by 4k rare gas 👀

[warm pivot]

and we can expect 2 more officers BD like this, for morale and HB

[earnest stone]

Triangle advantage, research could be a thing, bdas, etc

[gentle raft]

That was a 2nd battle

[little violet]

The talios has bad firing pattern and the ent has consistent damage

[gentle raft]

I was already damaged

[earnest stone]

That's nice, but doesn't answer any of my comments

Did the 50 do all of his research or did he rush to get up there?

What are his officer tiers compared to yours? How about lower decks?

A lot more goes into it than just that

[gentle raft]

I didn't ask

[earnest stone]

Exactly. This is one data point, and without more it's just an anecdote

[dull mason]

More points with Vi'dar

[gentle raft]

I was busy blowing up his friends

[little violet]

To be honest ops lvl means nothing if you don't have officers tiered or research

[gentle raft]

And raiding a base

[dull mason]

The Talios is made of tissue paper

[little violet]

officers play the most important role

[little violet]

Until you hit G5 tiers, yes

[earnest stone]

Right, the fact that he was using the tally instead of a ops 50 ship it makes me wonder

[dull mason]

That's interesting 🤔 .. thanks 👍

[little violet]

I've seen it over 600m

[earnest stone]

Even then I don't think it's as good as a northcutt or Sanctus of similar power, but it is very easy to get

[little violet]

Sanctus was my favorite ship for a long timethere

Is like a beefed up saladin

[warm pivot]

with integrated yuki ^^

[earnest stone]

Is it firing pattern as front-loaded as the Sally?

I skipped it, went Klingon first in g5

[little violet]

Idk if it fires kinetic round one like sally. I never really looked at it

[dull mason]

Hit Freebooters event 👎🏼👎🏼

[little violet]

Lol I literally just hit freebooters

[gentle raft]

Klingon?

[warm pivot]

lul 🤏

[little violet]

Officers who work against one ship are garbage...

[dull mason]

That Sounds Crazy stupid ( the officer info)

[warm pivot]

that one is as bad as expected... 20 shards with battlepass paid, 50 from sms... so you gotta get 30 from slb placement

so only 5 q per bracket (low spend)

[little violet]

atleast your sms is not as much as mine

[dull mason]

So

Another Daft Spend Event

[little violet]

I need to tier my ent so I am going to do it

Although this officer is garbage

[dull mason]

I wonder why my Chromebook can't send pic's to this site?

[naive escarp]

i gotta come to discord to see the events, cause my game is just one big time out error, can't do anything.

[tidal girder]

They raised prices on spends event again? Inflation is out of control

[ornate moat]

<@&509690795536941056> Current Recruit SLB for **Starfleet Q **is titled "Recruit Masriad Vael" Someone did wake up in time to change the event text though.

And I tried to post this to event feedback forum but was denied

[little violet]

They try and justify it by saying it a piece of trash pvp officer.. And they know.., You will still compete

[terse jackal]

Really weird, going to fix this

[warm pivot]

german texts are right

[little violet]

this is depressing

[tidal girder]

Gott segne dich

[ornate moat]

The English version isn't 🤣

[terse jackal]

Pushing out the fix now, gimme 3 minutes

[dull mason]

Don't forget about last months compensation Chest's due to the (91%) download problems

[tidal girder]

I wanted to, but not sure now. Meh, especially for the cost

[half hornet]

possible to farm g3 uncommon mats from hostiles anywhere ? lev 30+ ?

[dull mason]

Answer is yes
Buy it's a small amount

[ornate moat]

Can you farm ANY mats from hostiles ? All I get is Parsteel, Tritanium and Dilithium 🤷‍♂️

[half hornet]

know any particular spots ?

[dull mason]

They mean loot Chest

[long pendant]

@terse jackal Why there is still no Treasury event?!

[dull mason]

All of them, augment, fkr space etc

[dull mason]

They just had one

[ornate moat]

Never had mats in a loot crate from a hostile. Weird.

[dull mason]

I have a stack of times 😁

[ornate moat]

Lucky so-and-so, is my only available response 🤣

[dull mason]

Thanks 👍🏼😁🖖🏼

[terse jackal]

This should be fixed now if you restart/clear loc

[boreal oasis]

1/2 unlock sms? can we bet a slb?

usually cheaper to get the officers

[oak basin]

it does happen, same as you can get credits, uncommon ship parts, etc, they're just low drop chance, so ymmv on how often or if you see them depending on how many 4090's you've sacrificed to rngesus this month.

[ornate moat]

Success confirmed. 👏 Now if only you could resolve the 404 Ascension (or lack thereof) issue as quickly. A support ticket came back with a BS answer and no transparency. Is there any point in continuing to play the game if 90% is locked away ?

[boreal oasis]

the f2p conunndrum

[terse jackal]

I believe I mentioned this yesterday but I'm following up on this. Unfortunately, takes a bit longer to address than fixing loc which I can do myself

Thanks for letting me know though that it's addressed title wise

[dull mason]

Can we get the d'vor in the archives event

And a free two play pathway for the second builder and research option

[warm pivot]

what are you even doing here on a weekend? raising future expectations? @terse jackal ^^

[ornate moat]

You did. And a fellow Ops39 player from 404 sent a support ticket. The response was effectively "There are a number of triggers. Only one is age of server. Hope this helps." Transparency is NOT Scopely's motto based on this message. Appreciate you are doing your best though, @terse jackal

[terse jackal]

The person running the events for the month is always around at event reset in case something is off

I just have such an AMAZING relationship with all of you that I also pop in and chat a bit

[little violet]

that glazed apple on there?

[near bloom]

Spiced apple sauce

[little violet]

pork looks good, but the other stuff never seen before on it

[lyric haven]

Genuinely appreciate this. Zero issues to report, gonna hop back in game and have some fun with the lads. 👍

[near bloom]

It’s basically apple, boiled, sugared, spiced and thickened up into a sauce consistency

[little violet]

How bout adding more epic G5 gas and Ore into events...

[near bloom]

And some stuffing (cheap stuff - breadcrumbs, onion and herbs)

[near bloom]

Don’t you need to have some to have more? 😝

[little violet]

I need some to use it lol

[little violet]

Will show you a screenshot in a minute 😛

I have been playing for 5+ years.. I am ops 62.. The packs are ops based...

[little violet]

Unless that cat was strapped down tight .. It would not lay there like that ... Unless it was dead lol

[solemn plaza]

These mat spend sms events really suck to try and complete.

[little violet]

Scopely knows it too. The officer is complete garbage too

[solemn plaza]

I just needed some form of event to justify going up in ops.

Might have to go up in ops again to finish the sms though lol

[little violet]

Awe... I feel like I am ops 18 again..

Voyager archive is the best one, but ridiculously over priced for cores. 😕

[solemn plaza]

I don't use my voyager

[dull mason]

The question is,

I use mine for freebooter and other grinds cause it is cheap to repair

[solemn plaza]

Admire them taking up space in your inventory and causing unnecessary stress on the servers.

[little violet]

Let them pile up in your inventory

[fallow sage]

If they made Hijacked ships scrappable. There'd be a value.

[muted tartan]

Anyone have issues changing fleet commanders? I can only unseat the first 3 the rest won’t let me unseat even tho cooldown is zero

[little violet]

You can't unseat them anymore. You just have to click the one you one and where you want to put them and confirm it

[muted tartan]

Thanks

[little violet]

I agree, but at my ops not as much value

[fallow sage]

True! Honestly, It would have been neat if they had done hijacked versions of all the ships all the way up through G5

[dull mason]

Would have been nice for mat's

[fallow sage]

For FRK anyway.

<@&509690795536941056> Hijacked G4 and G5 FKR ships when?

[little violet]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-no-nonono-noooo-cat-no-gif-13597132752790194338

[analog vapor]

Would have been nice to see the USS Vengeance be brought in too.....but noooo.

I could list several different ships that would be nice to see in the game. But no they will do what they like.

[fallow sage]

omg I would LOVE that.

[solemn plaza]

Was talking to OH about that the other day.

[charred hound]

Anyone got the problem that the Augmentshop is nearly gone after Max the Botany Bay in Archive?

[solemn plaza]

Working as intended

[fallow sage]

Working as intended. It even gives you a prompt about it too.

Once you finish it you get a daily claim of all the things that you normally would and a random assortment of others from the shop.

But thats it, You get the daily claim. No double dipping

Wonder if the VOyager refinery will vanish XD

Oh wait no. It wont.

[little violet]

<@&509690795536941056> This needs to state... It is only available up to ops 60 and if you move to 61 with the excomp active the abilities are cancelled... After all the complaints you still don't learn and it erks me...#⭐-official-announcements message

[analog vapor]

I mean yeah! Heck I've been waiting for it to show up since day 7.

Others that I the would be nice to see is the Queen's ship.
Voyager J
Ent C
Ent B
Ent J
The S31 ship from S1 of Discovery
Etc

[solemn plaza]

They've got to save some of the Ent variations for the G7/8/9 epic faction ships lol

[analog vapor]

They already messed it up so doesn't really matter.

G3 - Ent (first gen)
G4 - Ent A (Second Gen)
Ent - B (Third Gen) (Not In Game)
Ent - C (Fourth Gen) (Not In Game)
G5 - Ent D (Fifth Gen)
G6 - Ent E (Sixth Gen)

They already messed up the G series by their lack of Star Trek knowledge.

[solemn plaza]

With the addition of MU would have also been nice to have seen more ISS ships.

[terse plume]

Is there any resource that tells you yesterday's events?

[little violet]

stfc.ovh has a list of up and coming events. Nothing that will say this happened yesterday

[solemn plaza]

Stfc.space, events, put yesterday's date.

[little violet]

You can check in the back of the event tab for yesterday

[terse plume]

It only shows some of them. Doesn't show the pvp one. 🙈

[solemn plaza]

The pvp vidar event is still running.

[terse plume]

Thanks. Just seen this. D'Oh

[uncut void]

If you quit this game you save alot of money

[little violet]

Or you can play and don't buy a pack 😛

[stark fjord]

I wish they had officer tier up credit cost efficiency

[little violet]

exp is cheap so I doubt they will ever do that.. Grind some borg and you get a ton of xp too

[stark fjord]

I am talking about the faction credit

11k credits for a tier up not worth it

[little violet]

Once you hit G5 faction credit problems pretty much go away

[civic geyser]

@heady moon @queen jolt multiple people in my alliance have noticed a significant drop in ship power and damage, my ships dropped around 50m power but one of our whales cubes has dropped by 500m, are yiu aware of this?

[stark fjord]

when I am saving credits for ships

[little violet]

First ship for G5 can pretty much come free from armada chests from 51-53 and credits drop like crazy if you still are claiming all three lvl of materials

[stark fjord]

not true the way I recklessly spend

[little violet]

Well this is a strategy game.. So you need better planning and decide if an officer actually has value in tiering...

just as an example...

[stark fjord]

I am not a strategy person I am a seat of my pants type person doing things on a whim

[crimson fern]

gimme!

[little violet]

https://tenor.com/view/no-calling-nope-telephone-whos-this-gif-17539920

[wet anchor]

I have no-one left to promote 😅

[solemn plaza]

How big ur Newton and Kelvin?

[stark fjord]

roughly the same as it was 2 weeks ago and simular to 2 weeks before that I just am not getting the mats to upgrade things mostly uncommon ship parts

[solemn plaza]

If you have G3 mats start Scrapping G3 ships.

[little violet]

Then you will be scrapping loads of G3 ships

[solemn plaza]

Voyager/Dom solo armada chests also really good for ship parts.

[stark fjord]

that takes credits for the bps and I am also not in abonduces of thoes

[little violet]

G3 lvl 26 ships are cheap

[stark fjord]

see

[solemn plaza]

Are you having any struggles with any specific content?
I'm thinking about jumping from ops45 to ops 49

[little violet]

If you grind Klingons.. Grind Ty Gokor

That will get you tons of explorer parts anyway from scrapping brells

[stark fjord]

mostly uncommon ship parts at higher level ship tiers and mats for research and speedups some times

[slim smelt]

fix the lag fix the lag fix the lag fix the lag fix the lag

[stark fjord]

are you not tri faction locked the only way you can get that much is with autogrinding

[solemn plaza]

I just ops from 45 to 46 and was able to push out a T7 Pilum.

[little violet]

I just told you... Grind Ty'gokor.. I am tri locked but have not bought one bp...

[solemn plaza]

Ur G5 locked eh

[stark fjord]

and spend 24 hours a day just to get to the 2000 hostile limit? I dont think so

[little violet]

Don't listen, that is fine.. The bps are common drops..

Never once hit the limit back then

That system is a special system

[stark fjord]

mabye for you but when I do rep grind I only get like 1-2 bps each but that is in a much higher system

[solemn plaza]

Remember the good Ole days before the limit was even a thing.

[little violet]

Higher systems have nothing to do with that system...

Really all depends on if you need explorer parts for G4

[stark fjord]

plus I am not hitting klingons until I 1 billion lock it

[little violet]

Then that system is not plausible for you

Really not even a good rep system, but the bps are hot there and speed ups

also G5 give tons of uncommon bps up until ops 58

I've built 2 novas free and a NC.. Other faction ships as well and can build two or more of those

[solemn plaza]

What's your perspective/opinion on G4 Epics? (Maybe looking into Ent-A)

[little violet]

Skip. G5 are more power and cheaper faction credit wise. Get one or two g4 rares and they can take you to ops 53

[solemn plaza]

I just got this.

[little violet]

Work on one G4 epic from away team credits for scrapping purposes later

one or two tiers and you are good until ops 53

[crimson fern]

no chaos tech

[little violet]

these two ships took me to 53.

[solemn plaza]

Had to stop at T7. Ran out of UC parts lol

[little violet]

Yeah the scrapping need is real in G4

[solemn plaza]

End of the month should be atleast T8

[little violet]

Mine are tier 10, but at the time were T9 and tier 8

Easier choice is the Korinar because Jelly brawl funds parts

[stark fjord]

I would need at least tier 12 for that to be possbile

[solemn plaza]

I'm looking to try and run Pilum and Kori

[little violet]

I just told you mine were tier 9 on my newton and tier 8 on my pilum

Now they are here because I popped some G4 on for a spend event randomly,

Rares will take you to G5 think you need atleast tier 8 to make it to the 51 zones

[stark fjord]

what I am saying is my tier 6 newton is 37m

[little violet]

What has changed tho is silents since I was in that area

[solemn plaza]

That's cuz your research and everything else sucks.

[little violet]

Well mine back then was I think 60-80m.

[solemn plaza]

My Pilum is T7 and almost 60mill

And I only built it today.

[little violet]

I didn't do any G4 research until I hit G5..

[stark fjord]

I have done all the reearch I can unless someone wants to get me a $100 resarch pack for more mats speed ups and lantium

[little violet]

Well none that took rare

I have been playing for 5+ years tho... Nothing has come fast for me and I am okay with that

You either have to spend a ton to fast track it or plan well. I chose the plan well track

Soon as I hit ops 46 I was already planning for G5. Meaning saving credits after my rares and prepping for rep

Soon as I hit 56 I was prepping for epics. Meaning after tier 6 I stopped upgrading my ships and started getting ready for G5 epics... I thought I was ready and I didn't prep properly. I mean I was able to manage okay, but I thought I would get more tiers.

[stark fjord]

well I just burnt 200k latnium to prove a point

[little violet]

best advice I can give you is prep for those g5 epics and the moment you hit ops 56 stop claiming your 30 chests. I know it sounds crazy because it will slow your keys down, but don't claim your 30d chest till you hit ops 61... You will be able to max your epics instantly that way. if you have a lot saved.

[stark fjord]

I don't know where everyone is getting enough research to get a 270% ship power boost I think everyone is playing a different game then me becouse that is delusional to thing I can get the same ship power as everyone else even with maxed rearch for my level

[little violet]

Stop upgrading them at tier 6 as well. Reason I say tha is because you will need the epic ships way more than you will your rares because the warp ranges for G6

what do you mean 270% boost

[stark fjord]

100m/37m

[little violet]

There is a lot of factors tha play into ship power.. Research, Territory, Syndicate... Ops because syndicate and TC boost increase off ops lvl

Buildings is another huge boost

[stark fjord]

none of the ships I can build are over 100m until I get to the g5 rares

[wet anchor]

Don’t compare it to 100m, compare it to @solemn plaza ‘s 60m pilum

[stark fjord]

well that is g5

[little violet]

Just saying a lot of power comes from building buffs

and syndicate

[solemn plaza]

Ops 50 can most definitely get ship over 100mill....there's ops 50s flying around in like 900mill ships.

[little violet]

that is because they were foolish enough to buy the G4 epics.

[wet anchor]

No those are whaled out protectors

[oak basin]

yeah iirc the protector isn't opslocked and you can do silly things with it

[little violet]

They should still be ops locked on that ship

[oak basin]

but it's still a protector, 900mil is only like 500mil in real terms

[wet anchor]

It is ops locked, but at 50 you can take it to t11

[solemn plaza]

NSEA at ops50 with a bunch of the launch packs and poof ops 50 with an 800mill ship

[stark fjord]

that is where all of my fed credits is currently going to ent -a

[wet anchor]

It unlocks one level earlier than you’d expect it looks like

[oak basin]

well ok, it's not so harshly opslocked as usual

[little violet]

DOn't but that ship 😕

[solemn plaza]

Last 3 tiers need G6 eh?

[wet anchor]

I think also need ops 60 for the next lock

[stark fjord]

ftp so far no packs unless I get credits from multiphasics from other packs that I need

[little violet]

go to 53 and get a tier 1 G5 uncommon and it is stronger than a G4 epic

[rocky escarp]

why? what if we plan to take awhile to 53 and have the credit?

[wet anchor]

But one of them also has a close to 400m ent A

I’m assuming their ascension locked

[little violet]

180k credits stronger than a 1m credit ent a... Just saying

[wet anchor]

450k

[little violet]

If the server is locked then get a epic cause you will be stuck there.. If G5 is open.. No...

1m credits is crazy for those ships because they suck

When you can get a better ship for 1/4 the cost

[solemn plaza]

What about if they were 700k? More reasonable?

[stark fjord]

as soon as I get the g4 credits ce the g4 epic will only cost 600k some

[primal stag]

Just built today and I'm ops 50

[little violet]

no

[solemn plaza]

What about lucky pull 100% unlock?

[rocky escarp]

t9 today 💪

[little violet]

G5 cost 180k credits...

[primal stag]

I'm 6600 rare parts from t10

[rocky escarp]

thats it 🤣

[little violet]

also... G5 bps will drop like crazy from the armada chest on your way up there..

So it will not cost you a full 180k credit to have a G5 uncommon...

If you are sitting at ops 50 and 51 is open it is foolish

[solemn plaza]

They're almost 700k

[little violet]

Don't let people scare you from moving up. G5 is not bad till 56+

[stark fjord]

I dont have the rep to by the bps anyway not even triple billion lock yet and my fed is at 1 billion and staying there until the other two are locked at least 3 monthe away or so

[oak basin]

also iirc you get more free corvus bp's from missions than you get free tribune bp's ( so i'd assume same applies with other factions )

[primal stag]

Where is this 180k for g5 UC coming from, they cost 450k base and the arena favor only drops it to about 380k

[rocky escarp]

51 is. the swap in events LB's however, right? playing with 70's.... doesnt sound fun

[little violet]

Shouldn't be as bad for new player since the rare comes in at 53 now. It is 450k my bad, but won't be that much with armada chests...

Not to mention the increased Faction credits from armada chests...

[shy hamlet]

yeah, 50 to 56 was a breeze

[little violet]

Is 51 open on your server?

[primal stag]

I'm just waiting til I get a nova ready to build from fed credits

[shy hamlet]

depends. I think we've got the g6 in their own playground for most in my server

[wet anchor]

Yeah that’s mostly solved now

[shy hamlet]

novas have terrible protected cargo compared to a good g4 survey unless you can tier it out the wazoo

[wet anchor]

You get the odd leaderboard with them, but most are separate

[little violet]

My novas are still tier 1 lol

No upgrades... Not worth it

[wet anchor]

I got one to t5

[shy hamlet]

yeah 300k protected cargo is a liability on my server lol

[stark fjord]

here is my ent-a ship if this will work before it comes out of dock

[little violet]

Is 51 open on your server?

[wet anchor]

Server 16 should be pretty old?

[stark fjord]

I cant even go to ops 51 its locked

[shy hamlet]

also that feels really small for it

[little violet]

Then I would recommend moving to 51 asap .. Even if you don't move up for while ... If you can kill immortal miners there shouldn't be a problem. Skip the G4 epic collect faction credits at 51 and just get a G5 uncommon of your choice

[primal stag]

I imagine s16 has g6 players, but that image doesn't mean much. You still have to upgrade the ship

[wet anchor]

I just got these couple weeks back 😛

[little violet]

I don't even have a G5 rare miner lol

[shy hamlet]

that's much better

[little violet]

1.5m faction credits means no

[wet anchor]

They cost all my tritanium 😅

[thorn fjord]

my Vorta Vor crept up to 1.05m protected the other day when i wasnt looking

but thats with a crew for it

[shy hamlet]

my g5 rares are already like 5T in each

[wet anchor]

These start at 1T to build

[shy hamlet]

I'm glad we finally had incursions the other week so I could restock on trit afterwards

[little violet]

My G5 epic cost 7b to repair.

[arctic iris]

even with efficiency research?

[little violet]

Reason I skilled the G5 rare mines i because the nova works fine for dailies at tier 1

[stark fjord]

what is imortal miners never heard of them before is that something new

[wet anchor]

Yeah I didn’t really need these.. even the g4 miners worked fine for dailies

But gotta get some new toys

[stark fjord]

I am hitting the belosian miners in fed space not yet gotten to rom space until I lock rom rep

[little violet]

nova will get you deep enough to get past most of the riff raff, As long as you don't camp on a node all day I doubt you go opc

[thorn fjord]

Nova is lovely

just need another one...

[shy hamlet]

I'm about to my second nova off chests and hostiles

[little violet]

Each faction miners are named different if you can get here and kill the miners here.. move to 51

[analog vapor]

I loved my Nova when I was using it.

[little violet]

Don't even have to move from 51 for a while, but you will get more lat, faction credits and better bonuses from TC and Syndicate

[stark fjord]

I can hit up to level 53 but I need to move my statrion to the system as my best ship warp range isnt currently enough

[little violet]

Then camping ops 50 is holding you back

Only thing that will slow down a little is slbs/sms because it will increase a little ... I Never compete in those so it didn't matter to me

[arctic iris]

been told to not even waste my res and time building the 50 epic ship and should push to 53 for that ship instead

[shy hamlet]

correct

[analog vapor]

My G4 ship was smashing those 53s for some time before I had to move up

[little violet]

I am building this because I got it free from away team credits a year later.... For scrapping purposes only .

[shy hamlet]

I stopped doing lead expedition after I built my 46's

[little violet]

Keep going and building credit. Might as well get one free to scrap later. G5 epics need to be fed 😛

[arctic iris]

like this? 😂 sooo close!!

[stark fjord]

so it took you 5 years of getting away team credits just for that , I dont event have the trait xp to get the nessary officers for crit chances to even have a chance of getting them

[wet anchor]

Still not close 😅

[little violet]

Took a year...

[stark fjord]

and you spend 600k+ trait xp I havent even got 1/2 of that much in my entire game history

[wet anchor]

Do more dominion solos?

[little violet]

It increase from bajoran when you move ops

[arctic iris]

wish my assignments looked like that

[analog vapor]

More like this.

[arctic iris]

that cheating you used a rare G4 🤣

[analog vapor]

A G4 is a G4 😂😂😂

[slim smelt]

fix the lag i say again

fix the lag fix the lag fix the lag

[arctic iris]

what lag?

[thorn fjord]

i concur, what lag?

i mean, if there's server related lag, you need to be specific about which server. if there's you lag, it might be you.

[slim smelt]

😔 74 cant do anything with out relogging every time

[thorn fjord]

Hmm, is the Northcutt that awful?

[analog vapor]

I have a buddy in my server who keeps calling me a cheater every time he sees one of my ships.

[arctic iris]

i did laugh cos hes got pvp officers on, normally only kill them when they dont have pvp officers on

[thorn fjord]

i do hope when i get a Corvus that it doesnt take too long to be better than my current ships lol

[little violet]

I'd have some funny ones to show if I was still in my other alliance.

buncha screenshots posted on discord there

[arctic iris]

it does, even when i got my kelvin i kept using enterprise till it was T6

[little violet]

My experience the G5 uncommons were instantly better, warp and grinding wise

[arctic iris]

think thats the worst thing about new ships, not having below deck slots make them so poor

[analog vapor]

They don't really get good until T4-5

[thorn fjord]

yea, warp range should be nice

my T10 Korinar has 269 and the T8 Tribune has 312

[whole robin]

Have they said when Vindi refit is releasing??

[little violet]

T1 is

[thorn fjord]

Definitely. took a while before i switched from the Valdore to the Korinar

oh not bad then

[little violet]

that is from my build screen with kirks warp boost

[arctic iris]

thats what a northcutt looks like when you actually do research 😂

[thorn fjord]

hehe

[little violet]

My research is trash for my ops lol

Its getting there, but is on a back burner right now because my ships cost so much to tier.

[analog vapor]

Better untrash it

[arctic iris]

still better than that T2 😛

[thorn fjord]

my build screen northcutt comes in at 135m, and 318 warp

[little violet]

Your kirk warp is better than mine then

I am stuck at lvl 9 because my command center is not 50

[thorn fjord]

Level 12, 9.6%

[arctic iris]

Wish i could see them ships on my account

[thorn fjord]

i did some investing in my FCs last time there was an event

building sat at 49 for ages, waiting...

[fallow sage]

And I'm ops 41 LOL

[little violet]

Is a good referrence

[faint vessel]

it's going to be one of these evenings 🙈

[little violet]

I have mid tier G5 research and no primes for hull boost etc

[fallow sage]

I dont get primes lol

I was considering the Grabthar pack since I just hit 41 and wanna get up to 42 or 46

[wet anchor]

It will take some time to get better than the tribune but that ship is OP

[little violet]

Not much time tho

[arctic iris]

don't worry im only ops 42

[little violet]

Like tier 2 or 3

below deck slots are limited tho

[wet anchor]

Tribune with burning still does more damage than t4. Much less health though.

[arctic iris]

how many extra shots does the max rank of that ship fire when the enemy is burning

[fallow sage]

Well. With the 2 officers that give more shots per round. I think Rev got it to 64 shots in 1 round

[twilit lintel]

sometimes i wish when we are opc our ships could teleport our mats to our station after we are done so we dont have to go back to the station lol

[arctic iris]

that will be some future Chaos tech , watch this space 🤣

[twilit lintel]

LOL

for 99.99

it would sell like tacos on 99 cent day

[sinful sleet]

I claimed mastery on BB and lost my Augment store! What's up with that?!

[analog vapor]

Chaos space folding

[analog vapor]

Yeah once you master the different pillars it disappears your thing for em

It's called Chaos dimensional theory tech

[sinful sleet]

Then what's the point of the Augment currency?

[twilit lintel]

^ for those who did the BAY UPGRADE

[analog vapor]

It's Scopelys Chaos Dimensional Theory Tech

[arctic iris]

If only Scopley was good at communication and telling everyone exactly what changes they done and how it affects the game

Once you get the Avatars the Augment Credits have no purpose anymore

[dull mason]

I suggested, work bee's, that could do just that

[arctic iris]

Same as Shipyard Credits from Automated Shipyards have no purpose anymore once you master the Monoveen

[twilit lintel]

then i got a long way cuz i dont even have that ship lol

[arctic iris]

your going to have fun doing the field training on hat ship then 😂 that was a grind

[dull mason]

The Ship hanger is the most useless building in the game,
You can't even fix ship's there or store broken ship's

[paper sand]

Can we vet a fix for this bookmark bug? Can't join any armadas... can't use my battle logs to find a system...can't use combat page to find armadas can't use bookmarks!!! This is gamebreaking....

[arctic iris]

With the BB mastery, im waiting till alot of people start complaining cos they build a bunch of Hyjacked ships and fully fill all their ship slots up 😂

[dull mason]

The Scopley 🤡 Bug

[dull mason]

They should be scrapable.!
They should make them Skin's
Add " highjacked skin's" to the Store so player's can use them on Any Ship's

[arctic iris]

I built 1 cos i had the blueprints, never ever used it cos it was rubbish and once i seen it wasnt scrapable i never built any of the others

[thorn fjord]

you'd hope thats what others will do too, but knowing how little players pay attention...

[dull mason]

They only look cool 😎, that's it 🫡

[thorn fjord]

especially as you get all 3 bps at once, so the people may build all 3 before they realise theyre stuck with them for ever

[analog vapor]

They should make EVERY ship scrappable since we keep getting bps for everything.

[arctic iris]

yeah especially if they are like me, once i get enough blueprints to build a ship no matter what rank it is, i build it level it up to max and scrap it cos its a free source of income

[analog vapor]

I use mine for events

[arctic iris]

thats just incursion prep aint it? building ships?

it dont matter much on my server we always lose since there are none stop 7 day bubbled bases in 20+ zones with trillions of res and when incursion starts the other server jumps in and feeds off them straight away

[marsh bear]

Hypothetically If someone was epileptic. This would be a major lawsuit if they had a seizure and died

Fix your game

[arctic iris]

https://tenor.com/view/disco-minions-party-yolo-dance-gif-5425411

[analog vapor]

Incursions have always been my jam. I love testing my metle against the other server especially since there's no action on mine very much.

[arctic iris]

yeah i enjoy them too, just hate that Scopley wont remove bubbles from 20+ areas 24 hours before the actual server war

https://tenor.com/view/ilmw-marcush-duarte-gif-6859355336535369547

[dull mason]

If that happened on my server,
The server would be 👉🏼 🔥Hell🔥

[arctic iris]

I think we were fighting 131 the last incursion, there was NO bases on their server in the 20+ zone. as soon as it went live i jumped over and there was 1 lvl 62 base in Klingon space and there was 20 of them from that server purging it before we got a chance but after an hour that abse come online and reloacted to the low area and that was it we had no targets

[faint vessel]

just got back from sainsburys..... 😻

[opaque crescent]

there was a voyager bug last year that gave multiple players seizures, the game’s response was… underwhelming

[crimson fern]

Game Logic same system: https://i.imgur.com/Xkk5lZM.png https://i.imgur.com/jJ87iq2.png

[opaque badger]

One of those is a chaser, they’re meant to be OP

[arctic iris]

yeah ment to whoop your butt for trespassing in their space

[stark fjord]

what about cross server regional trading at a certain level of trading building

[nova junco]

The Xindi battleship big gun at the end of round 1 is a 30% chance, right? I’m currently on a run of EIGHT in a row…

[arctic iris]

hate it when that happens

[coral sedge]

It's 30% plus or minus your mortgage payment

[nova junco]

Started 0-8, finished 9-11. That’ll have to do…

[wicked zealot]

[umbral arch]

Same think happened to me yesterday

[stark fjord]

can we get tal pls 🥺

[solemn plaza]

$100 for the unlock. Then +$100 cumulative per tier.

[thorn narwhal]

You wont need it anymore as the rewards will be in a daily claim. Whether thats a good thing or not is another discussion...

[marsh harness]

How do I get my options back????

[solemn plaza]

Delete your account and start again from lvl1

[thorn narwhal]

https://tenor.com/view/-gif-4422663

[faint vessel]

@marsh harness tap the bottom left yellow button daily

[marsh harness]

I always do max pulls off Aug officers for the Apex event. How do I know how the daily claim compares to the old Max pulls?

[thorn narwhal]

https://tenor.com/view/tony-stark-eyeglass-exellent-question-gif-12818139

[faint vessel]

scrap my last message

[marsh harness]

ALSO, does this mean everything I master will leave me with an empty refinery or faction screen?

[faint vessel]

the odds would be very useful 😕

[analog vapor]

If you master it then you have no need to learn it anymore

Once you master it, then you become the teacher

[faint vessel]

maybe they should just gift the residual and then make the refinery tab disappear or have the button redirect to the corresponding archive?

[analog vapor]

https://tenor.com/view/master-teacher-darth-vador-the-force-star-wars-gif-14314475

[marsh harness]

Whatever is going on now seems sloppy and unfortunate.

I'll be holding off on any further mastery.

[thorn narwhal]

Its to encourage under 40s to move up, engage with the 40+ content and hopefully start spending or spend more, as they do new loops and leave older ones behind

[faint vessel]

i'd be happy to be able to scrap the bb ship and not data mine ever again 😹

[marsh harness]

There's no point to the ship at all now. No stretch pulls to do the extra work for.

[faint vessel]

the sunsetting of augment was long overdue

new players still have to do it though 🙈

[marsh harness]

I don't want to lose my Borg refinery, Voyager refiney, Monaveen refinery. Pulling the handbrake on this whole mechanic.

[faint vessel]

maybe do a discord keyword search on this discord. others might have shared screenshots 🤔

ecoms will probably know

[thorn fjord]

All the removed refinery entries are rolled into the free daily pull from the archives

[warm pivot]

except augment reputation ^^

[thorn narwhal]

If you havent maxed your M-number, then probably not best to Master BB loop 🤔

[warm pivot]

M number is outlaws

[thorn narwhal]

🤣 there you go...shows how long had to play wth either faction store. That will be next....probably

[dull mason]

Error code 5

[mighty bone]

Don't care who you are, that's an ouch.

I have my hostile farm crew on before you comment.

[primal stag]

Does anyone know how the new mastery works in accordance to the vidar and talios. I can't max out talios based on ops and don't want to lose refinery options when I have the vidar mastery available in a few days

[fading belfry]

I can say as an ops 46, the borg refinery gave me 29k charged nano's per day (single pull to keep the grind down) and the archive will give me 75k with no grind. I'm all in.

[dull mason]

Bord LoL

[fading belfry]

just saw that

[faint vessel]

is there a way to turn down a seperate windows 11 programs brightness without altering the rest? usually run discord in dark mode but getting fed up of not seeing the role colours and names due to this 😕

crikey its bright 🕶️

[fading belfry]

one of the great things about the new archive is you can take it all the way up to mastery and stop there and still get all the new bonuses and you can still micro manage the original refinery until you decide to click on the mastery tab. still loving it

[dull mason]

Look for power save/ or evening, sunset timer

[analog vapor]

Nicely done 👍💯

[faint vessel]

watching iplayer aswell as using discord & playing stfc .....

[drifting arch]

Just curious…what do you mean by that? Thought to get mastery you have to unlock it

[mighty bone]

@analog vapor thank you

[primal stag]

I guess the main question is, does reg vidar mastery eliminate the entire refinery or keep things pretty much the same sans the lucrative token claim since I'm working on tally rn. Theoretically it should be the second option but I just don't want to lose tally refinery if possible

[dull mason]

Busy, busy busy LoL

[fading belfry]

the new archive is like the syndicate and the emerald chain. each level you open gives you the bonuses listed for everyday game play. if you choose to hold off on mastery because you want to manage your own refinery as you do now, that's up to you, but all the new bonuses you get along the way are now part of your everyday game play. but yes, if you want the daily master pull and sunset the refinery, then you have to master it

[dull mason]

[dull mason]

I'm definitely older 😆🤣

[faint vessel]

not that old, but the milk man still used a horse and cart to bring the milk. joys of living in the countryside 🙈 a neighbouring dairy farmer used to bring raw milk daily [off the radar]

[faint vessel]

my victor meldrew mode was a bit premature

[dull mason]

Cool 😎, orange juice from the milkman 🥤🥤 nice 😋

Or a fresh pint of milk, from the glass bottle

[faint vessel]

wasnt that exotic, it was literally milk from his cows after being milked, in a stainless steel small barrel

[dull mason]

🤣🐄 LoL

[faint vessel]

proper milk 😻

Not that it's a bad thing; i didnt realise you were older than me, it's so hard to tell just by chat 😕

[drifting arch]

Ohhhh okay…so you can unlock the levels or columns but you don’t have to ‘Claim’ it? That’s kind of nice, I was under the impression that once you reached mastery it was automatically claimed

[dull mason]

The smell when the farmers start muck spreading, you can never forget that smell 👃🫢

[dull mason]

🤔🤣

[faint vessel]

guano or silage effluent ..... crikey.... definetely cleared the sinuses

[winged haven]

Thank you fellow animalia, pussykinsy. Much bear love to you 🥰 🫂 🐻

[fading belfry]

yes, as long as you don't click on mastery to accept it. you get all the bonuses up to that point and you still have full control of the refinery

[drifting arch]

That’s a fantastic!

[faint vessel]

I havent found any research, a few making suggestions for it..... I guess it's just a case of tiering the ship you're cloaking to increase the length of cloak. The tetryon cost increases by ship grade

[winged haven]

How lifeless are yall playing this stupid game ?

[amber tendon]

I’m dead

[stark fjord]

here is an idea for another currency: plantium, like latnium is simular unlike latnium you can buy uncommon and rare ship parts and uncommon , rare and epic mats with it

[shy hamlet]

that's called dollars

[solemn plaza]

Given how bad the exchange rate is for "premium" items is with Lat that would be a horribly expensive idea.

[shy hamlet]

or whatever your preferred store currency is

[solemn plaza]

You'd be better of just buying Dolamide and Premium MU dust and going crazy on the efficiency research.

[faint vessel]

check your discord inbox

[late ermine]

I mean there are packs always for ship parts 😂

Or treasury i guess

Use real money > get a new currency > use that currency to get ship part 😬 why when u can do it directly 😂

[solemn plaza]

If you only upgrade ships when the spend events are running you can buy the special packs that have almost double the parts.

Buy them on the webstore then turn all the multiphasics into more ship parts.

Buy the efficiency primes and there's more multiphasic to turn into more ship parts.

So I see there is more problems again instead or progress with the game.

When someone tags a system or base it doesn't work.
And whej ships are at warp and you happen to reset there back at your base instead of going were you wanted them to go

And if someone started armada and you click on that tag it will either show you were your ship is or your base instead of showing you the system you need

I feel dirty saying this...but the independent archives are working out great for me

[normal elm]

they need to hear it, reinforce the positive behaviours

[lone lark]

we need to train them?:P

Aiiiite?

They’re awesome aren’t they.

[lone lark]

saving me a ton of work on Voyager grinding

[near bloom]

Went did a Voyager Hirogen run this morning as I got low, only T3 so I’m on the consolation prize track for the Voyager archive and one trip out got me 21k relics in five minutes.

[lone lark]

and I might actually start doing Botany Bay runs again...I had ignored them for a loooooooong time

[normal elm]

❤️ mastered today 😄

[lone lark]

awesome:)

[opaque crescent]

i love the archives so far, making voyager track way easier (gotta keep it at t7 for a while for ship parts 😬), free fkr credits, only complaint so far is i’m yet to get a khan shard from the bb one

[normal elm]

i didnt realise it would reduce the store 😄

i do love a tidy shelf tho

[feral zephyr]

I don't have voyager but that many relics would let me get a voyager! Ugh the grind!

[faint vessel]

https://tenor.com/view/snicker-muttley-laughing-dog-cartoons-gif-5737113

[faint vessel]

is it also a moist plinth?

[near bloom]

You may find it makes people on your server amenable to handing over relics 🙂

[feral zephyr]

Wonderful idea!

[faint vessel]

mirannnda !!

[near bloom]

9k relics from my OPC Voyager

[worn nest]

I freaked out at first. I posted in my alliance chat about it. I was like “is Botany Bay useless now? How am I going to upgrade my ships” etc..
I understand it now and love the archives

[near bloom]

And if I were grinding you some it would be more than that.

[feral zephyr]

Aren't the Archives great! FREEEE

[near bloom]

Have you seen the Vidar one yet?

[faint vessel]

at first, he was afrraid......

[feral zephyr]

There's almost literally no opportunity cost to doing all the archive tracks

[normal elm]

soon

[gentle raft]

But I don't have the doggie avatar!!!

[near bloom]

The Vidar one had me positively aroused

[normal elm]

thats what we like to see first thing in the morning

[feral zephyr]

You got a prime for double credits?

[near bloom]

Yup

Be rude not to, especially now!

[gentle raft]

Where's the doggie avatar!?!

[near bloom]

I can do my Talios credit pulls for free and still have loot left over

[near bloom]

I want totally normal dog back.

[faint vessel]

before you started slapping and waving your meat about?

[near bloom]

One of my favourite things from my OG account, after nearly max Tal and nearly max Torres

[faint vessel]

we're privaleged 😛

[normal elm]

im gonna be so salty if in 2 weeks time they turn around and say that's it, your 2 week trial of free archives is over, now pay up 😄

[oak basin]

https://tenor.com/view/it-sucks-to-be-you-gif-18294838

[gentle raft]

Np. You can get an extension

[feral zephyr]

Do we know yet if the building is ops locked? I feel like levelling the first few levels happened really fast (already 16)

[gentle raft]

It costs $99 for the prime extension

[normal elm]

ops16+

[feral zephyr]

Not what I asked, what I mean is if I'm say ops 20, can I take the building above 20

[gentle raft]

I would say no

I think all buildings are locked to your command center

[normal elm]

few exceptions like mess hall

[gentle raft]

I was just going to say

[normal elm]

likely it is working like Nova building, i will not be able to check for a while yet

[gentle raft]

[faint vessel]

why is there a child in swimsuit waving ?

[oak basin]

that is not how you spell hypnotoad

[sacred cave]

Why is it that once you hit mastery in the "archives" you keep getting useless ship parts??the ship is already maxed what were you guys thinking?

The people that decided on the mastery chest...you never asked your self if the ship parts are still needed after its maxed out?what are they gonna do with it???

[opaque crescent]

i assume the logic is in case ppl want to build seconds or for all those useless hijacked ships i won’t ever be building

[near bloom]

Build a second one.

Just because you personally have no use doesn’t mean everyone has no use.

[opaque crescent]

it took me 3 goes to send that msg, somehow my first two tries were too offensive for the auto mod 🤣

[sacred cave]

Its not for the hijscked ships though its for all the ships

[opaque crescent]

hence the first portion of my comment…

[sacred cave]

Ans you cant even scrap those ships,so it just fills your hanger

[near bloom]

So build one if you want them, don’t if you don’t.

Why should everyone be punished because you have selfcentreditis?

[hot dove]

https://tenor.com/view/pot-kettle-gif-18779626

[near bloom]

I’d like to build a hijacked ship but never did because it was always at a cost for something else.

[sacred cave]

But why give extra bs?why would i need 3k voyager ship parts daily once i reached max level while they can give me more anomalies or artifacts or anything other than useless voyager parts?

[near bloom]

Cos I’ve seen people with two Voyagers?

I don’t understand why, but when you’re taking away the sourcing mechanism you need to replace all that it can give.

So they did.

[sacred cave]

Thats not the point though,and trust me nobones building one...

[near bloom]

And it isn’t contributing to inventory bloat, cos they’re already in some people’s inventory and it’s just an integer on a table at that point.

[near bloom]

I will be building them cos I’ve never had one.

[west matrix]

yooo... stupid question... how to upgrade exocomp factory beyond level 51??? neither can I find this in the store, as the tooltipp claims - nor have I seen any event so far... the building has a max level of 60 so it should be possible... we have people ops 63 in the alliance who are stuck at this stage...

[oak basin]

to mine faster in voyager space

[near bloom]

Legit never had one in nearly 6 years, and now I don’t have to “pay a price”

[oak basin]

cos, y'know, having voyager maxed doesn't mean you've got the artifacts you source through it maxed

[near bloom]

Great shout.

[oak basin]

so mining is still gonna be a thing

[sacred cave]

Its unreasonable...🤷‍♂️

[near bloom]

The point is moaning about having something you’ll never use is an absolute fringe case compared to, you know, people that have a use for it and can’t because someone said “it’s unreasonable”

[oak basin]

plus voyager is in that 'absurd warp range compared to other ships' category, which is always a handy option, at least for folk not way up in ops with the big warp range faction ships

although, that said, nx is better for the warp range thing

[near bloom]

This feels like the rant of someone who hasn’t even got there yet, because if they did they’d realise there’s this minor issue.

[sacred cave]

But for a maxed voyager you gonna be way up though...just saying

[near bloom]

There is literally no other way for you to source these, it yanks them. No “oh I still do it because it’s a source of things” (why don’t you reduce the grind!!!)

Because we all know players would do that.

[sacred cave]

But for reducing the grind they could add anomly that would also let you open chests and do less mining,hence no need for a sec voyager to use as a miner...

[oak basin]

there's no need for even ONE franklin these days, but you still get the odd person who decides to build a second

it's a mistake to assume that all players will just do whatever's most logical, easiest, quickest, etc

[sacred cave]

You are saying it though..."odd"

[near bloom]

Nearly got my second first Frank 😂

[near bloom]

He’s not the one in here championing to take away player’s choice though.

Having it has done nothing but send you here to vent your spleen.

There is literally no downside to you.

[sacred cave]

Im saying there were better choices to be made

[near bloom]

But if you take that away, you take other people’s choice away.

And I’m sorry, on the evidence here I’m happier with my choices being mine.

Cos… choice.

[oak basin]

yeah i built a 2nd original-franklin after i built the franklin-a. took it to t3 and then went 'wait, why did i even do this'

[near bloom]

It’ll be my first first Franklin on this account.

Stupid starting over 🫠

People do it cos they’re campers and get the shock of their lives when they see the repair bill for their Frank A.

“This is what it feels like to repair a grown up ship”

[oak basin]

but it costs pennies to repair

i think

idr

[near bloom]

Nope

[oak basin]

i can't even remember when i last used it

[sacred cave]

You wont even need franklin once you do the exborg research you just kill freebooters

[near bloom]

2M Trit

Tier 1

[oak basin]

eh, smeg it, i'll go crash it into a freeb and see what repairs cost me

[sacred cave]

Dont waste your rss

Maybe if you need the warp for it but thats all

[near bloom]

None of the faction efficiencies apply to it so it’s your first “oh wow I thought I had a lot of trit” moment

[near bloom]

And swarm Sunday

You don’t “need” it, but may as well dust the right tool down for the job.

[oak basin]

ok well that didn't work, it killed the freeb

[near bloom]

Kill a bigger one 🤣

[oak basin]

stupid not-as-useless-as-it-should-be-fronklon

[near bloom]

It’s just choice. It doesn’t hurt you to have it and for monetary purposes to Scopely it doesn’t seem to hurt them either or they’d not have done it.

Sooo… this one’s a win for the players.

Free stuff for you to not use if you don’t need it and use if you do.

[oak basin]

ok that's weird, i have to hit 48 freebs with the fronklon-o to actually kill the franklin

[near bloom]

This place is weird, literally the only gaming place I’ve ever been where people complain about stuff they don’t need and think other people shouldn’t have a need for. 😂

[oak basin]

45's, dead in 2

[near bloom]

High DPR?

[oak basin]

48's dead in 1

[near bloom]

Freebooters hit like Bensciandgames’ ships.

[oak basin]

and after all that i forgot to check cost before clicking repair

[near bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/slap-fabulous-boxer-gay-silly-gif-5502166

[near bloom]

You can’t. Yet. Maybe ever. Who knows.

I can almost taste the buffs.

[oak basin]

i slapped pmc on it, ld isn't much. doing about 180k/hit energy and 280k/hit kinetic. not very high dpr. 83 rounds to kill a 45 freeb

[near bloom]

Weird. Franks get quite big nowadays as Franks went, cos power creep.

[oak basin]

11.3mil undocked @ t9/45

[near bloom]

What are we at now, 27,000,150% HHP bonus through primes?

[oak basin]

see, pennies to repair

[near bloom]

Now.

[oak basin]

kinda tempted now to just go crash it into freebs for my dailies, prolly cheaper than repairing the pilum

[near bloom]

Frank maxed is base 359k trit repair before research

Compared to Frank A T1 at 2M

At Ops 35, before all the bumps, people pooped themselves at the cost difference

[oak basin]

idk i feel like an ops35 should've been used to spending a bunch on repairs by that point, they've already moved through the 26 and 28 fac ships, have access to g3 rares and epics, etc. they should be well into 'yep, repairs cost rss, that's correct' territory by then

[near bloom]

T9 Sally has faction efficiencies and is 819k base

Find something to crash a T9 epic into and see

[oak basin]

aye, but, bear in mind i'm talking 'normal players', as in 'camp every so often and catch up on research' rather than 'always be up-to-date on research'

[oak basin]

i'd go back and throw a sally at things as well, but, well, i'd have to build one, i've been scrapping a bunch to push pilum toward t9

[near bloom]

See, that’s a big difference that faction research makes

[thorn fjord]

cries in Epic G4

[near bloom]

🤣

[normal elm]

so umm.. if i mastered the botany.. why would i need the Data? serious question

the only thing i can currently buy is in the Rogue store, chances are Stella might make it to the archives at some point, so...

[thorn fjord]

You can use it for eclipse directives

But thats it i think

[normal elm]

odds of new content soon? cause why else give us a massive mining speed boost if the resource is now close to obsolete? 🤔 dont get me wrong, still loving the archives, just thinking out loud 😄

[thorn fjord]

I do wonder that too

Short of buying crew for Apex, i haven’t used the Augment store in ages

But at least thats now free

[normal elm]

the store is closed after mastery as well, apart from the faction icon and Khan ava

which i guess might also go if i ever decide i have too much credits

[thorn fjord]

Everything else comes via the archives claim

[normal elm]

yeah

[thorn fjord]

With no uses for the aug credits, you can afford to splurge

[normal elm]

I think there's one at the end of ever month

It seems only every other month officers are included

[arctic iris]

only slightly teacher setting was the beginning of imitation game?

[gentle raft]

No, he's teaching a class, about a hypothetical question of who goes in a bunker for the end of the world

There's 30 people but only 15 spots

[near bloom]

I mean, he is very good at it but I feel awkward agreeing with the “Kaspersky is good” guy 😂

[arctic iris]

is it not? 🤣

[gentle raft]

I was wrong about the actor.

[burnt briar]

Somethings up i think the games broken again

I never have this good of a run on xindi battleships lol

[lapis crystal]

RNG is strange at times. Alliance friend had a streak of 14 kills in a row. I have had 7 deaths in a row.

[burnt briar]

I kill it on the death side lol

I had a run of 57 tokens only hit like 15

[lapis crystal]

Luckily the loot is enough even with bad luck. But sometimes annoying when takes long time.

I have put more effort to warp research now. Or could rift Disco close to those 60s systems.

[pliant vapor]

the movie world did not start at Star Trek and ended in modern Sherlock Holmes.
there are way to his career than those two charecters.
he is a better Sherlock than RDJ and I luv RDJ.
last but nit least he's the only and the best Dr Strange there ever will be!

the acting of the original khan by the actor was over dramatic and loud! a perfect match for Shatner!
both can't act 😂😂😂

same reason Picard is better than the Kirk

[lapis crystal]

You use pretty strong language for matter of taste things. Even if a world renowned movie critic I always feel more comfortable seeing "I like", "for me" and such approach instead of absolute claims.

[thorn fjord]

Oh i dunno, the 1978 Dr Strange movie looks like it might feature some quality acting…

[ornate moat]

Also had Stan Lee as one of the writers.

[thorn fjord]

So by definition better than any modern Marvel film

[near bloom]

Yes, yes he does. 🤣

[oak basin]

i mean, at least this time he's not trying to claim stuff for russia

[crimson belfry]

How do we get trillium a needed to get into mirror space

[near bloom]

Da!

[ornate moat]

<@&509690795536941056> Any reason why players were not told that completing MASTERY of the Botany Bay pillar in Independent Archive*** without*** having ALLY reputation with Augment faction a) prevents some rewards from being given (Khan officer shards) and b) removes 90% of the Augment faction store so you can't buy more Augment reputation to be able to get Khan shards from there eventually ? Have sent a support ticket but this information should be released before other players are prevented from getting expected rewards.

[muted cape]

you dont need that to get into mirror. You need this, you get Trellium from inside mirror

[crimson belfry]

Which you can't get til ops 50,right?

40

[near bloom]

Already raised, I don’t think emotive language like “cheated” adds anything - for many players that rep’s been maxed out for most of a century now - it’s most certainly an oversight and I’ve reminded the guys that we mentioned this a few days ago and as mentioned in AC I’ll try catch up with Pauly tomorrow 🙂

[opal turret]

Any info when is the next Saris invasion? 🙂

[west hollow]

Or you need the golden avatar when you have max both the ship and augment faction max

[little violet]

Did we have an invasion event last month?

[warm pivot]

we even had an issue with a missing event shop claim, you member

[little violet]

Because now all these rewards ... are available wihout...you having to mine data ...

[muted cape]

you need to be ops 40+ to enter MU space

[near bloom]

Yeah, we don’t get that as our rep is too low

[little violet]

Interesting

Another thing Scopley just swept under the rug

[near bloom]

It’s something I flagged to CMs last week and will gently nudge them on tomorrow. It makes sense to either reinstate the data-to-rep claim or just have it auto-max at T9.

[little violet]

They'll just need to drop the rep in there

[near bloom]

It’ll be an oversight - how many people nowadays still have to pull rep for augment 😂

[little violet]

I haven't even looked in the Aug store in 3 years or so lol

[near bloom]

Yeah, there’s about eleventy five different ways to fix it, just need to get someone moving it. Unfortunately we’re too new to have people over in the other place to push for it to hit the known issues tracker.

[little violet]

Good luck getting scopely off the commode lol.. Love sitting there

[thorn fjord]

Clearly Mastery should need T9 BB, L16 Archive and max rep

[near bloom]

We don’t have known issues, we have features 🤣

[thorn fjord]

And Ops 40.

[near bloom]

Would accept, begrudgingly, as long as they retrospectively fixed the ones in limbo.

Love to see them do that archive with fkr so you get past blueprints free...

I mean moving G3-G5 if you are G6

would be a positive step. Moving one lvl below your grade

[muted cape]

how would it work based on ops or rep? technically speaking an ops 14 could master rep in any faction

[little violet]

Good luck mastering anything at ops 14
