[safe bay]

Pinnacle of power - hostile hunt keeps "giving" me the top reward, but it doesn't give me the 100 points for Ahead of the curve. Annoying!

[wraith wagon]

Nice thank you

[twilit lintel]

So i have 107.4k event tokens how much more tokens will i need to get all bp

[silver parcel]

43,350

though not worth spending currency on that when you can get it through territory services

[twilit lintel]

that takes forever

[dawn ocean]

sigh okay I hate asking but this girl is serioulsy out of relocation tokens. How do I bank a stack of them? lvl 19 base so grinding in 30+ is probably not gunna work yet. and yes I'm hitting the alliance store daily and the chests.

[dull mason]

Separatist system's are a good place

[fathom ruin]

https://youtu.be/Xm9Y5SC74_0

[true vale]

To expand on BarnOwls great suggestion, here are the separatist systems

You probably cant take the 26's (though it may be worth testing), so maybe stick to the 17/22's. The loot boxes from separatists tend to be very profitable compared to other hostiles

[acoustic folio]

Most likely apac has some lag again

[topaz burrow]

Does anyone happen to know what rank i would need to meet this req?

Im at 89 mil currently

[true vale]

This is at court of Q L56 and assessment rank 254m

So, no, I don't, but as you can see it's a very slow progression that you will have to deal with often

[silver parcel]

think it opened up at 300 or 400m something like that

might be more

[topaz burrow]

Geez! They've made ft progression so ridiculous. They really need to adjust this. Wait, its scopley were talking about. Nm 🤣

[silver parcel]

and it locks at 11

even with 6.5b ranking

[topaz burrow]

Thats ludicrous

[shy hamlet]

360 gets you to L48

[true vale]

Helpful and relevant to me, so ty!

[shy hamlet]

360, even.

[near bloom]

They did fix FT

They launched the fix as CT.

[shy hamlet]

360M also took a 600m ship and double buffs

[dawn ocean]

I autogrind in francihk rn.. I get maybe 1 relocation token per 1000 loot boxes when auto grinding. Should I go hit the interceptors instead of floating?

I don't think the miners drop them.

[dawn ocean]

I managed a T7 jelly and tend to run lt. picard, la forge, kirk and it hangs in there for a while.

[dull mason]

Franck is a standard Klingon system. Hit Ka'bi and try Kai Ran ..

[dawn ocean]

Thank you. I'll go grind it out.

[shut flame]

What ops does the rep packs open up at ?

[dull mason]

It's best not to rush it,
But you can get rep from hitting the enemy faction,
Mission's or doing the main faction Chain

[shut flame]

I would like just to get this bill lock over with

[shy hamlet]

I don't believe availability is ops based, but it's a limited time "buy it while it's here" thing.
obviously the contents scale with ops

in the meantime, there's faction rep available in the vi'dar/talios refinery & mastery, the s31 faction store (for regular or mirror credits), and the ex-borg faction store, for minimal click jumps

[shut flame]

Yah

I don't know our highest player on our server has the option to buy rep packs while I can't I think some of it could be ops based or maybe rep bases

[dull mason]

Try and keep One faction hostile, it'll make it easier for dailies and overnight Faction Hunt..

[shut flame]

It's just boring lol

[gray lintel]

Only those who have not bought rep packs previously will see them, one time thing

[shut flame]

I've never bought one

[dull mason]

Once you lock All 3 FKR there's no going Back 😱😭

[near bloom]

This is awful advice

[shut flame]

Unfortunately

[dull mason]

So is locking Faction's 6 time's LoL 😂 😉

[shut flame]

🙁

[shy hamlet]

faction hunt is a once a month event who's easy mode is "tier ships that are lower level than your good ones (so they tier cheap)."
hostile hunt (generic) events are doable naturally, or via augment (early) or Texas (mid-late game) easily.
it's not remotely worth losing access to 1/3 of the faction ship and officer sourcing for those

[primal stag]

are you able to hunt the traders in kronos ? they made the final grind seem faster, or maybe i gaslit myself about that lol

[dull mason]

Definitely not at this point,

[shut flame]

I hit them and some ships in tygor at the same time

It's just so slow

[shy hamlet]

also, not triple locking is a commitment to never mastering the talios and never pulling rep/credits rom ex-borg, not to mention being careful about how you turn in g5 missions - it's unsustainable to be scared of 10 million rep

[primal stag]

i always tell my alliance mates to run them to 10m as fast as they can. one after the other. then focus on the main.

[shut flame]

I've already Triple Locked

[shy hamlet]

good

[shut flame]

Just working on fed 2nd Lock

I just want newton

[shy hamlet]

Kronos is going to be faster than ty'gokor; if you're in the mid 40's I would first check "how many ships can grind capital traders" and then add in rep exos, loot or speed crews, and try to speed it that way

[shut flame]

I run kelvin in Kronos ent and monavene in tygor

[shy hamlet]

depending on your ships you may be able to progress faster via low g5 than capital systems; but then again you can't have enough 4* broken survey parts

[shy hamlet]

I'd check ent with PMC vs light and monaveen with PBT vs heavies

[shut flame]

My strongest ship

[honest escarp]

Possibly a dumb question, but does anyone know, in the ticketed Recruit- SMS event, if the officer intel it says to spend is referring to officer EXP? Don't wanna waste my tickets if it's something I don't have

[primal stag]

snw officers are handy too, i use sam kirk capt with pike and hemmer

[shy hamlet]

SNW on the kelvin will probably average better than PMT if you're hitting both and have hemmer, plus it frees that up

[primal stag]

lasts a long time in ktinga

[shut flame]

I don't have any of them

[shy hamlet]

it does mean officer xp, yeah

[shy hamlet]

got the transporter patterns? they're good to have

[shut flame]

Yah

[honest escarp]

Not yet. I just started the game a week ago and still learning everything. Thanks for confirming that for me

[primal stag]

if you have alonzo freeman stuff him down below decks too lol

[shut flame]

I get 100k per 51 and 50 survay In g5 space but I don't have the crew to get my kelvin up there but once I'm ops 46 I can

I can do the research and take my kelvin to tier 7 and reach

[shy hamlet]

for g5 farming it's more about relocating than warping

[shut flame]

Yah

[shy hamlet]

until you're using g5's and the superhighways the travel time/hostiles killed ratio is too painful

even before potential warp range issues

[shut flame]

I can reach g5 via voyager and nesa

I'm terrible at this game

[shy hamlet]

sounds like you're doing pretty good, actually

working on your second locks around 45/46 is great, you've mentioned having a few of the really impactful specialty ships and upgrading them so you're doing their loops

you're just at a rough point with faction grinding, that's all

once you go to 46 and have one or two of those ships, the PvE element hits one of its easiest points in the game; it's just a bit rough getting there

[whole robin]

Pike + moreau + rank 2 phlox = 0 crit for silent enemies right?? (-110% crit)

[primal stag]

going after the capital traders really changed the rep game for me. not to mention free ops 42 ship bps .

[shy hamlet]

yup, it should work like that

[shut flame]

And 46 but it's rarer

That's why I want this lock so I can grind ROM rep and newton bp while working in credits

On*

[whole robin]

i am using PM rank1 phlox and take more dmg vs 46 but less vs 49 compared to SNW Pike+shiptype SNW+Phlox

Paris and hugh below deck with def stack

[solemn plaza]

MU farming is a game changer.

[shy hamlet]

Paris below should be irrelevant if you're using PM or the SNW triangle officer and following triangle FYI

[shut flame]

What all can I get there other than rep and credits

[warm pivot]

the end of voyager pain is hidden in mu space ^^

[solemn plaza]

Just more rep and credits relative to anywhere else you can reach. Earning tens of thousands of each faction credit daily should be incentive enough.

[shut flame]

True but nwsa doesn't have that rep boost like my kelvin has

Unless I use my kelvin

[shy hamlet]

what system is getting you that many?

[shut flame]

Probably a really strong system

Probably further than mirror dolorian

That system gives you 90 credits

[warm pivot]

i like dessica, with 2 visits its about 10k as well

[shut flame]

Where is that?

In mirror

[shut flame]

Oof that's a little far

[shy hamlet]

I should probably go to mirror space more

[shut flame]

Probably

[primal stag]

is mirror space worth it before having the protector ? or is it better to wait to build it first . i havent messed with it yet.

[solemn plaza]

I normally get about 3-5k credits per run. But then do 3-5 runs daily(if i have the time). MU space is really good.

[shut flame]

Nesa makes killing those easy

Or anything in mu space really

[shy hamlet]

alright I'll take it. found a better system than I'd been in before, and speed crew got me 100m rep for each faction and ~2k each credits in 8 minutes

[analog vapor]

If I had 200K of those tokens I'd use them all in one day 😏😈

[analog vapor]

MU space is more than worth it.

At least for me at any rate

[shut flame]

what opsare you?

[shy hamlet]

I'm using a g5 rare

[shut flame]

oh nice

I wish I could get 100 mil rep per hit lol

[shy hamlet]

lmao me too. should clarify that was "by the end each faction went up 100m rep" and not "100m rep per hostile"

[shut flame]

Oh

I bet there’s still a system that does that though

[shy hamlet]

could probably get 10-15m rep per hit if I could farm mirror Romulus tho

[shut flame]

but that’s probably very very very very late

I need to go see if I can go any further than dalorian

I could probably hit the next ones up, but I’d probably be sacrificing that poor ship

but with three ships, one in Kronos and the other two in tygor I can gain a couple of mill probably every 10 minutes

[shy hamlet]

here's a list of every system that's either got rep or ent-e's (rep don't have the warships, but I couldn't figure out an "exclude" into the search

[shut flame]

Ent e?

[shy hamlet]

some MU systems that have regular hostiles can spawn an enterprise E, which has a lot of Trellium and drops a chest with refined Trellium and premium keys

they swapped it to displaying as a survey so it's immediately distinct when you're grinding, as it can be a lot harder than the other hostiles in the system

[shut flame]

Oh I thought it dropped ent E lol

That would go crazy

[wet anchor]

G5 rare you can grind up to mu cheron fairly well. I get 3b rep per hour there now with agony booth and exos. 20k faction credits per faction.

[shy hamlet]

don't have an agony booth, wasn't using exos, so good to know. I'll have to step up my game

[shut flame]

I just want rep 😢

I'm going to try to hit higher than the 45s

[wet anchor]

Before booth it was about 2b. Really good.

[shy hamlet]

how many ships at a time?

[wet anchor]

One ship

[shy hamlet]

huh. alrighty then.

[shut flame]

I'm going ti try the 51s

I'm probably going to go splatter

[wet anchor]

Doing 350-400 kills per hour depending on crew (started at low end with spike synergy, then managed to put on kuron for speed)

[solemn plaza]

The MU 51 survey you can just use PMC.

[shut flame]

That's what I have on I'm just scared my nesa ain't strong enough

Yah big time splat

All I did was scratch the paint

Wait no I was a bug on the windshield

[solemn plaza]

Yeah you'll need to be T5/T6

[shut flame]

I'm tier 3

I can kill the 40s easy the 45s it takes a minute to recharge the shield

[analog vapor]

I get 19+M per hit in MU Romulus for a total of 500+M per run.

[shy hamlet]

I need to seriously step up my game it seems

[little violet]

that sounds like you are farming the 68's, but they are not that easy to farm for me

[shut flame]

I blow at this stuff

[analog vapor]

I did the math that I need 200K MU Tokens for a max rep runs on all factions. I estimate that, that's the same requirement for anyone who is 15B locked.

[analog vapor]

70s

[little violet]

My ent-d can't do those lol

[analog vapor]

Yeah, been using my cube

[little violet]

Think I am going to work on the hostile damage artifcat

[shut flame]

I need to work on my cube I've been lacking

But I can't do much to wmit without a t7 newton

[little violet]

My cube is locked till I get tier 9 on my minerva or Akira

[shut flame]

Oof

[little violet]

Which is still tier 1 🤣

[shut flame]

My mighty cube

[little violet]

Mines still a baby

[shut flame]

1.4bill is not a baby

1.3*

[little violet]

It is when you seen some of the other cubes out there 🤣

[shut flame]

Yah compared to this

But this dudes a biggy on our server

[little violet]

That is literally just the next tier up lol

Biggest one I have seen is 170b

[shut flame]

Geez

[little violet]

Istio's is probably bigger than that now 🤷

[shut flame]

I don't know who that is

[little violet]

pretty sure he is the number 1 power in the game.. Likely works for scopely

[shut flame]

Oof

[shut flame]

I don't wanna see a 1trill ship ever role up on my base

[little violet]

Well you should not be playing in march because there will likely be some with G7 ships

[shut flame]

All I want is a g4 rare and I'm content

[little violet]

Shouldn't be that hard to get. You can grind most of the bps in the capital cities

[shut flame]

Yah gotta lock first tho 290mill our

Out

[little violet]

Newton in Sol, Korinar in Kronos and pilum in romulus

[rough heart]

What ships would be G7s tho

[heavy idol]

Death star

[little violet]

Made up ones..

[heavy idol]

https://tenor.com/view/elmo-magenta-gif-2943724198842396195

[shut flame]

Maybe the one from voyager with the doctor episode where he goes between the alpha and delta quadrant

[little violet]

Its a game.. They can do whatever.. It just has star trek on the label.

[shut flame]

The Prometheus I think it's called

[little violet]

https://tenor.com/view/serious-final-space-gary-goodspeed-gary-gif-25644411

His ship?

[rough heart]

Give us a usable NX 😄

[rough heart]

Enterprise J hue hue hue

[little violet]

They are probably going to be putting evolution on more and more ships.. Likely this Revenant was a test

[heavy idol]

What was that thing from the kelvin films called again

[shut flame]

The dark enterprise?

[heavy idol]

The Enterprise but bigger and painted black

[rough heart]

Vengence

[heavy idol]

That's the one

[little violet]

The lego my ego enterprise?

[shut flame]

Give us base skins

That would be cool

[little violet]

https://tenor.com/view/pancakes-pancake-syrup-breakfast-brunch-gif-17577274

The pancake enterprise

[shut flame]

I wouldn't mind have a base that looked like ds9

[heavy idol]

Yeah pretty much

[little violet]

its a quad deck

[heavy idol]

All I could think in that film was; if it can be controlled by 1 person, why is it so massive?

Do away with the crew quarters, save space

[shut flame]

He was maybe compensating for something?

[little violet]

Can't help but here those old justice league cut aways.... but for scopely..."Meanwhile in the scopely accounting department."

https://tenor.com/view/cooking-cook-money-money-money-money-money-money-gif-16670048503852599108

[heavy idol]

Also, what's the point going through the trouble of painting it black when you're only facing enemies with super fancy sensors?

Just too much hollywood

[shut flame]

Smells like money

[little violet]

https://tenor.com/view/xrd-exrd-crypto-btc-eth-gif-23801255

[shut flame]

I think I should unlock soran here in the next few days but I don’t think I have the right crew to use him

[little violet]

You have to pay for his rare officers or use burning and freeman

[shut flame]

Yah so useless to me

Cube is a pain to level up

[little violet]

I just used lat

[shut flame]

I'm lat broke I've got 37k

[little violet]

Gets easier to lvl once you can farm the 57's with it with a tier 6 G5 rare ship

I had a ton before this arc... down to 4.4m now 🤣

[shut flame]

I'm thinking about buying newton bp with it but it's probably really expensive tho

[little violet]

5 lat to 1 credit conversion I think

[shut flame]

But I figure 8mill lat is probably enough

[little violet]

Not worth the lat lol

[shut flame]

I have 67bp bow

Now

[little violet]

Should be easy to get the newton with doing dailies and scout changes everyday

[shut flame]

And mirror space too

[little violet]

that makes it even easier

[shut flame]

I just want to have it before I hit ops 46 then I can just build it right off the rip

[little violet]

What ops are you now?

[shut flame]

45

I should have the bill lock before Christmas

If I don't burn out

[fringe plaza]

Papa Nurgle loves you!

[little violet]

Idk why everyone wasn't able to build their next lvl ship by the time they hit they hit the ops for the ship. I've always had mine ... Even with G6 ships free.

[shut flame]

G6 free?

[little violet]

Yeah

[shut flame]

There free?

Huh

[little violet]

Didn't buy the bps with cash, so yes

[shut flame]

Oh

[little violet]

Didn't buy any faction credits with cash either 🤷

[shut flame]

Hmm

[solemn plaza]

There's plenty more iterations of the USS Enterprise for them to make.

[little violet]

I also do not farm mirror hostiles a lot

[rough heart]

Yeah but all the ironic ones are used atm, original, A, D, E, NX

[little violet]

They could do an enterprise fart and it would sell

[analog vapor]

@little violet

[thorn narwhal]

Think the game is about to die....continious Error code 5 for the last minute now and red wifi dispite being sat 5 feet from my router

[fringe plaza]

Make a ticket. Honest statement.

[dull mason]

I don't know what faction(40+) ship to get after my maxed Ent

[little violet]

Yeah, I have seen 6b cube there hitting them easily

My little 2.1b ent is able to get 15-16 a run

Trying with this new crew and cerritos

[heavy idol]

If I'd go back and do it again I'd use Talios and Monaveen as mains to skip a 42 uncommon and grab a Pilum or Korinar asap

[little violet]

Looks a little more promising

[whole robin]

Can someone tell me how much rank 1 combat ferocity in ex-borg favors costs?? Stfc.space doesnt say and is it common or uncommon or rare credits

[little violet]

Guessing common

Nvm that is rare

New stuff all started off rare and then bounced between rare and epic for lvls

42 chests from the lvl 68 mirror hostiles. Not bad

[hollow flax]

anyone have the legacy link?

[dull mason]

On the spend event went from 3rd too 11th 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼

[little violet]

Sounds like they hit 40 and unlocked a ship

[hollow flax]

oh nvm I found it https://commanderslegacyreel.idomoo.com/lp/3/index.html

[nova shadow]

Does Cosmic Cleanup not count on the Ahead of the Curve?

[thorn narwhal]

That is viable in 2024/2025

[heavy idol]

Definitely. I went Valdore -> Pilum and the former ended up feeling like a waste of time. Its nice to have an extra ship for solo armadas but honestly the Talios and Monaveen are good enough to get by on

[shy hamlet]

with the addition of the nesa especially, I agree

talios felt weak at those ops for me; that's when it still has a BDA/mitigation struggle

[heavy idol]

The main reason I'd argue for getting a G4 rare asap, is the loot bonus each of them have as ship ability. It helps a ton with daily grinds and even rep grind afaik

[shy hamlet]

g4 rares are the ship(s) you wanna have from 46-53

incredibly useful for rep, hostile grinding, armadas...

I keep one as a backup arena ship, since they can go hostile ->hostile ->solo->group

with a full speed crew too

[heavy idol]

Pilum with riker and NSEA with kuron + 5 get the job done quick

But that loot bonus really is a perk, even now at ops 55 my Pilum yields better loot/time spent than my Vorcha for some tasks

[solemn plaza]

Pushing my Pilum from 46 to 56, then I'll trade in for a Sanctus

And yes I'm out of my mind I know.

[shy hamlet]

I mean

it's believable

[heavy idol]

No I actually think that may be a smart move

[shy hamlet]

Talios is comparably sized to a 53 at 54

[solemn plaza]

NSEA is pretty big too

[shy hamlet]

NESA probably gets there too, not sure, I got mine a touch late

but that stupid arena 50's NESA is certainly plenty big enough to go to 56 lol

[solemn plaza]

Mines not that big lol

[heavy idol]

I mean, I'm weeks away from the Sanctus but only credits holding me back. Skipping a single ship I'd have had it now

[shy hamlet]

that's why I didn't build a corvus

[heavy idol]

That said, I don't really try to race anymore and do sometimes grab a ship just cause I want it

[solemn plaza]

I'm still a ways off but I only just went into G5

[whole robin]

does this exocomp work on the broken ship parts from the surveys? 🤔

[heavy idol]

Roughly 200k credits left to go for me

But with mirror grind etc that really doesn't take long anymore

[shy hamlet]

tbh id be more interested on if it worked with the rep

[solemn plaza]

Nsea+mu=golden

I'd want to say it does. But scopely probably won't let it work on rep

[heavy idol]

I would imagine it does, but that seems like a waste of a great exo if you ask me

[whole robin]

what would you use it for then??

I have NSEA I can mine trellium and omega trellium requirements aren't very high

[shy hamlet]

after getting a 15b lock with a pilum, I kinda gave up rep grinding for half a year. finally got talked into it again today and yeah. but NESA doesn't go to the 60 systems for me yet

[heavy idol]

Rep first of all, if that works. If not, then for winning SLBs that require docking trellium

[whole robin]

the surveys that drop the broken parts are also the ones you farm for rep lol

[heavy idol]

Yeah I know but as was pointed out, not sure if it does count for rep

[whole robin]

well I will test it next run

somewhere it said trellium only I think 😐

and not sure if it even works on omega trellium

[heavy idol]

Parts aren't hard to farm elsewhere and the refinery payout for parts is 💩, hence my answer

[whole robin]

the mirror surveys have rep, drop credit chests, and 3 kinds of parts tho

[heavy idol]

The loot exo or loot crew won't affect the chests tho, that's important to keep in mind

[whole robin]

yeah I know that part

might affect rep and/or parts tho

[heavy idol]

If they work on rep then that's definitely the way to go

I have one of those exos, will try to remember testing it tomorrow

[whole robin]

holy crap I just got Eviscerator and it's damage per round is insane for it's power

my Tier 1 Eviscerator has like 80% of the damage per round of my Tier 6 Korinar lol

[lunar otter]

Rep exos work in mu space grinding rep. My alliance does it all the time.

[whole robin]

not rep exo, the mirror space loot exo

[lunar otter]

Ah. Ok

[solemn plaza]

I can get about 200 of the lvl48s. Maybe 100-150 of the 49s. And then like 20 of the 51s lol. Still opening 150-200 chests from the 48s yields a lot of credits.

[whole robin]

MU rep grinding is the way to go you get positive with all 3 factions at same time

individual faction may go up slower but you're getting more total rep

[void stratus]

Any word on the additional store rewards?

[solemn plaza]

Mostly doing it for the credits. Trading rep gains foe credit income.

[void stratus]

Where are you grinding that you get more rep than MU?

[whole robin]

faction traders for me at least can give more rep to a single faction but less TOTAL rep

and you're getting negative rep with one so if you're not right at the lock one is going down

but if you're trying to raise all 3 MU gives more total rep

[void stratus]

I’m doing MU Cheron and getting more rep than anywhere else I can reach

Single faction, not counting the triple raise.

[whole robin]

I can reach Cheron but my NSEA not strong enough to kill the hostiles there lol

[void stratus]

I’m sending my Croizer in.

It stands up to fighting for 15ish minutes.

[whole robin]

well at different levels you may have different results

my NSEA can farm 48 surveys efficiently, 50 but eats too hull too fast

my Pilum can farm 55 faction surveys

but even if you can get better rep elsewhere the credits usually make MU worth it

[void stratus]

Yeah I’m not getting any better rep atm. So MU Cheron is my go to.

[shy hamlet]

yeah one of the advantages of mirror rep is "what if there aren't surveys of this level"

there straight up aren't 60 FKR surveys

[stark fjord]

so today I spent latnium and now I am 644 days away from ops 51

[shy hamlet]

Ben...

buddy

[stark fjord]

12 days lets goo

then I need to know what should I look foward too at ops 51

[shy hamlet]

uh

they don't tell you but you're legally required to do all your research that you can before moving to 52

Just efficiencies

it's ben he needs them all

[little violet]

lol

[shut flame]

oh, I spent some Latin on right but not on research on base building

[merry lion]

I've never seen this message about raising Q-trial assessment ranking before I can upgrade a FT before. Is there a chart for this?

[coral sedge]

I've never seen a chart, but I'll tell you that requirement is around 280M-290M

[solemn plaza]

Research. So much research

[late ermine]

Noooo how big is your Newton

I didn't do most of my g4 research 😂

Like still 50% left

Or 60 % 🤷

Don't worry u will be fine

If u have done some.....

[shy hamlet]

okay so Ben I looked and first
are you trying to kill me you aren't even using all your research queues
secondly. station, galaxy, and combat are all lacking. at least it seems like you finished the g3 but that also seems to be most of what you did.
your Stella tree should be 95%+ done and instead it's terrifying.
your defiant research is basically empty and it should be about to finish.
you didn't even show the other trees so I'm assuming they're empty (also what about bajoran and Xindi favors)?

you don't even have all the efficiencies done; I saw multiple that you really need.

it's as terrifying as I thought

[lofty linden]

Its based on your Q-Trial assessment rank. You have to have a minimum success percentage of Q Favor to try. What the minimum is..? Not sure. However once you hit T9 with whip it doesn't benefit refinery any more and its negligible difference for mining cLat.

[glossy glacier]

Are they running arena this Monday or no?

Nm yes , mis read the post , last line was about invasions not arena

[coral notch]

Where can I find the two planets picked mission?

Which system?

[solemn plaza]

In the system the event tells you to go to.

[reef pilot]

you never utilized this. how about doing so. and put any player attacks in this one since the other one only holds 300 and then you can't see who hit your ships.

[trail hill]

Are US servers having background maintenance?

[near bloom]

Fun times!

[ashen briar]

When you almost have an epileptic seizure early in the morning because the screens suddenly overlap and start flickering like mad…QUALITY 🙄

[serene orbit]

Finally ran into it!

[split storm]

In guessing you can't buy the ship projectiles unless you get them when. They first come out?

[near bloom]

They occasionally make a reappearance in event stores

[pulsar thorn]

Does anybody know if the Admiral Event Tickets are going to carry over after this event to another similar event....I'm Assuming it does because you need 6000 tickets to get anything and if you don't do finish every milestone it's pointless handing out 1,500 tickets per milestone.

[naive escarp]

that's what you would think, but you know how it goes with this game

[pulsar thorn]

So true...I'm hoping it does. Plus it says limit is 6000 tickets I don't see where you can buy them in store....I understand if they change the officers offered up.... otherwise what a stupid event.

[silver parcel]

They carry over, they'll be rotating the officers

But note that there's a limit to how many you can carry

[pulsar thorn]

Oh nice. Sweet deal. I'll prolly finish it...and get the 6000. Just wanted to know how hard I needed to push on these events . Thanks!

[silver parcel]

probably going to hold onto them myself, given the pic officers

probably weighed heavier on getting them instead of the nx officers

[pulsar thorn]

Probably best. This game likes to Test to see if you have patience to wait.

[maiden blaze]

are the old events officer recruit heroic, limited time officer etc coming back?

[silver parcel]

at the moment the officer xp slb or sms, recruit slb or sms, ship xp slb or sms, building power slb sms or research power slb sms are not coming back

[naive escarp]

so what do we do with all the officer xp, ship xp, and officer recruit tokens now? like there wasn't even a farewell party.

gimped everyone into saving up these resources, then pulled the rug.

[minor furnace]

I am not worried about spending said items and recruit tokens, but SMS rewards that give out said recruit tokens.

That is what we lack now.

It is now down to a trickle

[opaque badger]

Yep, basically no way to source ultras now, just a tiny trickle via a couple AT missions

[silver parcel]

daily goal box as well, and the 24 hr chest with the favor

but yes they did lower a bunch of things with these new events

we raised the issue of lowered latinum and recruit token payouts, hopefully they plan on doing something about it

[late ermine]

You do get 1500 ultra from bjor unc chest pull

But yea will be great to have old events back ....the only daily event i like is the pinnacle pf power one

[silver parcel]

the daily hostile themed events are decent

rest are terrible

[late ermine]

Odd question 👀 i see you get 33k lat from daily goal how much do you get from rainbow at ?

[late ermine]

Yea thats the one

[silver parcel]

from what?

[late ermine]

Those one

Was wondering how much lat 60+ get 🤔 from ats

[silver parcel]

from the host ambassador

[late ermine]

Hmm guess they didn't boost it much 😂

[silver parcel]

Mine doesn’t? Assessment rank is 395,55m. Is there an ops requirement maybe? I am 57.

[silver parcel]

would be nice to go beyond this

[gentle raft]

Yawn

[muted cape]

The only ops restriction depends on the strength of your ships, higher ops makes doing trials easier.

You have to do the trial that shows this “Assessment Trial” this is how you increase that %

[little violet]

Has any CC created a chart for the Revenant with the evolutions and cost reductions?

I bet Jules has started one atleast

[whole grove]

<@&509690795536941056> I think Scopeley got their Math for scoring this event comletely wrong. I've completed over 300 researches, updated over 50 buildings including defence platforms and haven't even finished tier 1 yet. at Ops 64.

[little violet]

I did the same thing took my turrets from lvl 59 to lvl 62 to move to ops 63 and I have not even come close to the tier 1. Even if you bought your way to ops 70 you would still not hit tier 1 or maybe hit it just barely

[whole grove]

I'd have to completed researches that gave 224,666,666 power x15 to complete the event. Thats impossible.

[little violet]

There are no research that give millions of power. Highest I have seen so far is about 400k

[civic eagle]

According to my legacy reel my total power for the year would only reach the first milestone. They need to auto complete this event for every player.

[little violet]

THese boldly go events must be the key were missing and of course they want someone to buy packs to try and finish the event without telling us

[dull mason]

https://tenor.com/view/deadlock-deadlock-kelvin-kelvin-deadlock-kelvin-mafia-kelvin-mafia-gif-18010646507467165781

LoL

[whole grove]

Agreed. You'd have to complete Over 550 researches that awarded 400k power. There arent that many

It's potentially possible if you bought say 300 packs and went from 64 in my case to 66 and upgraded everything. I'm sure the intent wasnt to spend £30k just for one event

[whole grove]

I agree. The whole event should be auto completed for everyone. It's totally balk. The March of Progess. Almost impossible to complete even the first milestone. As noted above you'd need to spend c.£30k in packs to complete the whole thing <@&509690795536941056>

[whole robin]

so got an interesting bug going on with my cube

in battle log it has roughly double the shields and hull that it shows on the ship info page

🤔

[pale jewel]

Boldly Go Events are for beginners, aren't they?

[calm vigil]

Research probably.

[whole robin]

other ships show the same amount in both spots though

I think I figured out the bug

it seems to be giving me max crew bonus even though I have nowhere near that

when I put crew on it the amount on the ship info page increases but the amount in battle log stays the same

and cube has insane crew bonuses but requires insanely strong crew

nvm it's affecting all ships not just cube

¯_(ツ)_/¯

appears to be giving all ships max crew bonuses it's just more noticable on cube because it has such massive crew bonuses

and because my crew stats are usually max anyhow on other ships

[little violet]

By the way here is a link to the revenant. KInd of figured Jules had an indepth chart for it. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1lnYCQC3ms4kSEpv9mq4ldv6Hbx8aULe3u-0RcW6HvQY/edit?pli=1&gid=0#gid=0

[icy heart]

anyone else missing Romulan Message Exchange in the Klingon faction store? I’ve tried clearing localization but it’s still completely missing.

[icy heart]

This makes zero sense. Why is Message Exchange locked? It’s not locked for Feds at same level. Message exchanges have always been unlocked!

[dark shadow]

I have the same issue with fed currently. There seems to be a gap where they didn’t think things through to allow the lower rep version to stay active before the next one opened again. Specifically between legend and dignitary.

[icy heart]

It was available for me up through yesterday. Now it’s not

[dark shadow]

Mines been gone for weeks

[little violet]

ha it was a visual glitch

[dark shadow]

There’s a rep spot between legendary and dignitary where faction messages are locked. Sadly not a visual glitch on my end.

[little violet]

nah, it goes legendary dignitary

Only reason I am at Dignitary with klingon is because I was hitting mirror hostiles yesterday and it now dignitary

Soon as I do my dailies.. It will be legendary again lol

[icy heart]

Mine is still locked. This is a new thing today

[little violet]

Even after restart?

[dark shadow]

There’s a point area between 15bil and 17bil where scopely has messed up the faction exchanges. It’s not a visual glitch. I didn’t mean there was another named level, it’s those point ranges. My fed has been in that range for weeks, trust me it’s not visual. <@&509690795536941056>

[warm pivot]

https://tenor.com/view/segundo-sol-novela-remy-vladimir-brichta-chocado-gif-12304506

[little violet]

I mean I can confirm that in a minute 😄

Cause it will take me below 17b rep

[warm pivot]

gz for reaching the 3rd rep lock, as rewards you no longer can exchange faction messages 🤣

[dark shadow]

You would have to maybe drop well below 17b, who knows where the exact range is?

[icy heart]

Here are my three exchanges. In the Klingon faction store, it’s suddenly locked today. And I have no idea why it’s for so much more faction credits either

Clearing localization and restarts don’t fix this

[little violet]

Scopely needs to source this 💩 free to play cause the warp problems are getting annoying

[little violet]

what ops lvl?

Because I know the 61+ only gets the 4700 because those are G6 reps

[icy heart]

60

[little violet]

That is why

[dark shadow]

I am above 61, it’s not the only reason. There is a point range scopely didn’t code for properly where no faction messages are allowed.

[icy heart]

Why?

[little violet]

Diginitary is a 61 rep

You can get there before hand, but the boost in credits only unlocks at 61 and you dailies change too

I will post a screen shot i a minute after I do my dailies in the 16b rep area

warping there now...

[icy heart]

Then why have I been collecting message exchanges on Romulans for weeks?

[dark shadow]

If you already collected yours won’t be apples to apples. Plus the bug might only be in the lower part of that point range. Not sure why you aren’t believing my actual experience for almost a month lol

[little violet]

4700?

or 1600?

[icy heart]

No 1800 as shown above

[little violet]

Then scopely borked the Klingon cause once you are 61 it goes to 4700

[icy heart]

I’m getting nothing today

[dark shadow]

It’s not just Klingon….

[little violet]

Doesn't matter which faction. I am telling you why it is doing it

[dark shadow]

Look at my screenshot for fed. It’s obvious there is a certain point range where they are broken.

[icy heart]

You’re not explaining anything.

Feds (Legend) — 1800
Klingon (Legend) — locked as of today
Romulans (Dignitary) — 1800

Ops 60

[little violet]

My messages have never been locked 🤷

[dark shadow]

You would have to knock that rep to low 15 bill to replicate what I see. There is a point range where they are borked. I am above ops 61

[little violet]

It will be 15b lol

[icy heart]

Locked message exchange is the problem we’ve been posting about

[little violet]

ANd I just said mine have never been locked...

[icy heart]

So why are you telling us what’s happening and showing your own screen?

[rigid glen]

Mine is currently locked too

[little violet]

https://tenor.com/view/faint-omg-pass-out-fall-elmo-gif-8540902822064990640

[dark shadow]

And you aren’t in the right range to test it at the moment, plus you would also have to skip collecting a day to really test once you are at that same point range. Your tests are not apples to apples lol

[little violet]

My Klingon rep was 15b yesterday...

I pulled messages... Yesterday...

[dark shadow]

Yours is bouncing between 17 and 15 daily according to your posts. Not apples to apples

[little violet]

I also got another pull this morning because I moved up rep lvls...

https://tenor.com/view/kek-cat-kek-cat-laugh-laughing-gif-25202548

[dark shadow]

Mine are stuck near 15 consistently as I only do rom dailies. I have been locked out of messages for weeks.

[little violet]

You are missing what I said.. Mine only moved up because I farmed mirror yesterday... It has been 15b for months...

Been pulling messages... For months.....

[icy heart]

If you’re not experiencing the issue, your experience is not helpful info

[little violet]

Okay don't listen to anything I say 🤣

https://tenor.com/view/shocked-reading-gif-18060591

[icy heart]

Actually one thing changed since yesterday morning: I installed the app update (ios)

[little violet]

The instant you hit 61 your dailies and faction store change to let you mine G6 and the hostile change from 60 to 61

The fact your messages are locked is because the 4700 is the pull for 61 and it is stuck there. It is the lesser amount until you make the ascension. That is something scopely borked.. It should be raised in aticket.

Which is what I said above but no one listened..

[icy heart]

I’m not getting a lesser amount. The whole exchange is locked for one faction. The other faction at same rep is working as usual, as is the faction at a higher rep. Thi

[little violet]

it is actually 1800 for legend

[icy heart]

I’m so glad you’re not having a problem. That does not address the issue others are having

These events are temporary for the month of december.. They are watching their profit margins now to see if they want to keep them 🤣

That works for people at my level, but the lower-OPs players can't kill the higher ones

[viscid zephyr]

Scooply should give us other areas to mine ISO OTHER than Origin or outlaw space

[foggy parrot]

why?

[little violet]

Why

There are plenty of nodes

[ornate glade]

Meridian is on the Archive's priority list

[little violet]

I doubt it will be anytime soon since the exborg supply enough iso for double pulls a week

[foggy parrot]

and if your alliance doesn't have territory then you can always do your mining with talios 😉

That is actually the most lucrative and fastest way to stock it

[twilit skiff]

fanboy detected

[foggy parrot]

what I mean is, usually grinding at your level, the events are done with no more than 200 reds

if it's more than that and you're an average player then $copely has scaled it wrong

[solemn plaza]

I'm a person that has pushed ops way way too fast, borg event was done in less than 40 hostiles.

[foggy parrot]

nice 👍

[solemn plaza]

Most inconvenient thing was cargo being filled before I finished the event.

[split storm]

It gets worse.😅🤣😂

Scopley explain yourself

[split storm]

By scopley math, my damage around 50 without these bonuses 😅

[solemn plaza]

It's all done on base dmg which on the realta is like 5. So again no issue.....

Max base damage on a realta is 48.

So with those 2 buffs they'd increase the max dmg to like 600

[solemn plaza]

I'd say the only issue is you're not using the proper crew setups.

[foggy parrot]

they're dealing about 40x the amount of damage

[lapis crystal]

Did we already hear back from team here about seemingly too demanding Borg event today?

For me it would require 220+ lvl 52s, but I can rift to 58s and just do 35 kills. So not a problem.

But our lower ops are in serious trouble. Even rifting them doesn't help everyone. So lowering the demands at least from ops below 40 would be adviced.

[obsidian zenith]

if your ops are 34 they dont get the event at all

[lapis crystal]

Do you mean my comment? For example our ops 28 is having it and in trouble.

[obsidian zenith]

i mean im ops 34 and i dont even have the event to try

[lapis crystal]

Yes, I think that's another bug on it. 1 of our ops 50 says he's missing it too.

[split storm]

I took off the chaos tech and FT off my ships now working again

What illogical thing is that.....

[lapis crystal]

Those boosts do practically nothing on Realta. In Realta PvP you can only use either TOS Kirk or Tyler based crews to perform at any reasonable level. It has very, very little to do with FT / CT.

[tropic wadi]

@heady moon The Q christmas event might take me until next christmas to complete

[crude phoenix]

so what are the boldly go events .. we have a special tab for it but no events ?

[lapis crystal]

Are you sure it wasn't because your TOS Kirk's morale didn't trigger or if using Tyler GG's/Nero's burning didn't trigger?

[solemn plaza]

You can also RNG crew to punch up and just hope the odds fall in your favour.

[split storm]

They never triggered until round 2 which isnakready too late in 8 different fights. Take the tech off and it's activating in first again

[lapis crystal]

Hmm, I would be inclined to say that was just bad luck. Maybe in combination of that time opponent having Assimilated you (lower you chance for trigger).

Ah, yeah, true. Was only thinking that fat Mudd's doubling isn't enough with such low base damage when hull still is hundreds of thousands. But didn't think of Ro.

Now with G6 players on my server I wouldn't be winning all Realta PvP with TOS approach. So will try that one.

[solemn plaza]

Yeah I got lucky with that 1 Mudd and ro went off. Killed them in 1 round.

[lapis crystal]

Yes, I got the principle. Just didn't think of it myself before seeing your screen.

[solemn plaza]

Can also use things like gigi/tyler/soran

[keen basalt]

Love a good schadenfreude event

[lapis crystal]

Or Mariachi, bd

[solemn plaza]

Need the limited ld spots to Stat stack for Tyler.

[lapis crystal]

Oh, was Mariachi battleships only, though
(Isn't limited to battleships, so works too.)

[ember siren]

Why is the web designer at Scopely deliberately mean? Who can read this? Did they fail the part of design where they talk about getting a message across? That button is gray with gray text.

[quartz talon]

tbf, it's only grey when you can't do anything with it

[solemn plaza]

I can read this. And I'm basically blind.

[tidal sand]

Server 22 is plagued with massive lag @lapis seal @heady moon

[ember siren]

Good thing I didn't want to know when to come back.

[quartz talon]

in which case you'd be looking closer anyway and it's perfectly visible

it's only at a glance that it's hard to read imo

[ember siren]

Not on a 55" screen from 8' away. I usually hiit ctrl-a to select all the text to read it. Just kinda fed up about it. #rant

[quartz talon]

Yea I could see the challenge on that size screen, could be more clear for sure

[obsidian zenith]

can we get this uf event fixed so all can play?

[plush grove]

Anyone else’s Qismas event not showing up?

[opaque escarp]

what the heck?

[dull mason]

https://tenor.com/view/mesemoa-nichan-ani-funny-number1-gif-13699404

[silver parcel]

For those missing the borg probe event, they're rolling it out now, be patient

[vagrant vapor]

heads up of NOW!!!

[dull mason]

Borg event is a trap to spend trans Warp token's

[thorn fjord]

then you dont need to worry do you

and i agree, ive had to use 2 so far and still not complete 😭

[dull mason]

It's a Sad situation 🥺

[plush grove]

Clearing localization fixed my borg event

[vagrant vapor]

you can have 8 tokens stored, and they're free. i don't see a problem?

[thorn fjord]

shhh dont belittle Barnys attempt to justify not doing content 😉

2 tokens down, 19b points gained, 14b left to get

[steep aspen]

I'm close to needing 8 to finish mine, it'd be a big problem for people that didn't have their max banked

[vagrant vapor]

badly neglected vidar? 😳

or what kind of number do you need to do at ops 35?

[steep aspen]

the opposite, points jump massively if you have a talios, so having one at 35 means doing almost 9 million on 33s or 36s

and its locked to tier 1 at that level

#🏆-event-chat message

[solemn plaza]

You can have more than 8 tokens. 8 is just the limit for the free claim to still give them to you.

[vagrant vapor]

yes, i know

but as you say, 8 before claims stop

[thorn fjord]

yea, 35 is on that unfortunate point, with a talios its still low and the vidar is better for killing

[vagrant vapor]

500 33s sounds excessive, indeed

[solemn plaza]

I must have got lucky with my event. Pushed my ops up but didn't have the mats to push Talios upto max for new ops. Event was super easy.

[thorn fjord]

i had to move up from the 52s i can access to the 54s i need Ghrush to get to

[vagrant vapor]

i think it was 34 lvl 58s, and done

[steep aspen]

I'll admit that I'm being greedy and using the talios for its bigger cargo, but my vidar can't reach the 36s without compromising its crew and over 500 33s is a big grind

[thorn fjord]

and even at 380m points a kill, i need 33b points total

[robust lotus]

@unborn urchin, just do not limit it to 22/21. ...would make things significant faster for us. 😉

[solemn plaza]

Only need 5.4B for mine. Did it on the 52s. Took 2 runs cuz I filled my cargo and didn't want to waste the loot lol

Finally having an under leveled ship pays off 🤣

[thorn fjord]

lucky!

some daft plank Ops locked the Talios, so mine goes as far as it does without help

[muted cape]

Use Gorn ship, if you have tokens to waste then use rift to pull your tailos in. No Ghrush needed

[thorn fjord]

yea, i could

i try not to, but in this case, i may have no choice lol

[solemn plaza]

It is amusing to see all these 100mill+ talios flying around with my dinky little 40mill one 😂😂

[thorn fjord]

not exactly packing a combat crew anyway, Mavery, Ghrush and 4, with other max cargo BD

[dark edge]

Question is the DDeridex ability broken. Mine is T5 and it still reads 0.1 ? Shouldn’t it be higher?

[solemn plaza]

T5 lvl25, it should be 0.14 but they probably didnt let the decimals go that small.

It'll change to 0.2 once it's maxed.

[dark edge]

Ok didn’t think it was that small

[normal elm]

that's what she said

[lapis crystal]

Yeah, it's 14% so rounds to 10% (0,1) in visual view. Still counts properly. Meaning after 7 shots / rounds of opponent burning you reach +100%, double the shots.

But actually you get +100% earlier because it rounds up to closest full number.

[dull mason]

It's a Rubbish Scoring game 🎮
Scopley is Definitely Wonko 🤪

[thorn fjord]

dont make me agree with you again

[unreal cloak]

Your Borg event is stupid

[dull mason]

The Sunday swarm event, could have included Borg as an option
So player's could hit Borg and score Swarm rewards

[solemn plaza]

Just need to remember that extra shots use bankers math so the rounding is different.

[lapis crystal]

Yeah, it's strange that some things in game round up favorably from 0,5. Like if using Krass with synergy for defense 50% is enough to negate a 100% ability.

Or maybe it's still the same, if it's looked at from attacker's perspective.

[solemn plaza]

It's only the even decimal shots that round unusually (compared to what most are used too.).

[hidden holly]

How many people are having issues with reds being stuck on spawns and not being able to warp back to base?

[tender robin]

Massive lag on s26. Ships won’t warp. People stuck in combat. Going for at least 10min

[hollow crystal]

Does anyone share my angst at encountering the "rare tactical core wall" at 50?

Sourcing takes MONTHS at best and you can't even spend around the problem 😖

If Scopely offered a pack with 50k or even 100, I'm willing to bet it would go like hot cakes. Thoughts?

[hidden holly]

I am also server 26

Finally got my ship back to base but the reds are broken

[hollow crystal]

For me this wall is easily the worst barrier in this game

I would buy the ## out of a 50k rare tactical core pack

[lyric haven]

It's justified. Prevents underdeveloped players from levelling too quickly and thus shooting themselves in the foot

[bright sapphire]

I have never listened to the words because I HATE Mariah Carey. She sounds like a cat in heat to me and I have no respect for her after seeing her try to upstage Gloria Estifan and Aretha Franklin. But this version is awesome! Happy Holidays my Loves 💜!

https://youtu.be/pw3PhhSfcQg?si=hr3VHaVeAkEreIRb

[hollow crystal]

Does anyone else feel my pain?

[lyric haven]

Maybe Ben

[dull mason]

https://tenor.com/view/bah-humbug-no-christmas-angry-upset-cat-gif-4808611

[hollow crystal]

Yeah but I was so ready for 50+ got my 100 mil ship and lots of RSS but boom. Wall.

[tender robin]

You get way more rare tactical cores from g5 armada chests starting at ops51. Ops up and you’ll max your ACC fairly quickly

[hollow crystal]

I mean levelling speed bumps DO make sense but if you're ready for 50+ it's just pain pure and simple. Very few players had the foresight to get them in mid to late 40's

[subtle shore]

I just maxed mine at ops 50

[hollow crystal]

Jealous. I'm stuck at 50 with my 100 mil NSEA and trillions of rss

I hate this rut I wish I knew it was coming months ago

You hit 50 then you're just screwed

[solemn plaza]

Why do you need 50k rare cores to go to ops 51?

[tender robin]

You don’t. Don’t need ACC 50 until like ops56 I think it is

[solemn plaza]

There used to be a pack for it

Maybe it's a time limited thing.

[delicate bobcat]

Server 26 is experiencing huge lag, anyone else?

[hollow crystal]

Well it's a goot 10-15 to go 51 and apparently tons more to get to 53

[shy hamlet]

you need like ACC 45 for 51 I think

that should be easy

[hollow crystal]

It's only6500 cores which isn't the end of the world, but after that apparently much much worse

[shy hamlet]

once you get to 51 you get to g5 armada chests which give you rares by the bucket

[hollow crystal]

Oh! Neat!

[solemn plaza]

And there's also a pack with rare cores if you're really that desperate

[hollow crystal]

I did NOT know this thx for assisting some of my dread

[tender robin]

If only that was already mentioned

[hollow crystal]

I have a lot going on I live in a hospital, sorry

[night falcon]

Seems like it’s improving

[subtle shore]

https://tenor.com/view/not-today-satan-no-way-iron-man-gif-18421006

[opaque crescent]

90k rare cores to get acc 50 (which you need to get to ops 57) - definitely not as bad as it would’ve been with exclusively the g4 boxes of disappointment but still a climb

[thorn fjord]

Shame you can’t trade regular for rare

[lapis crystal]

I would consider waiting little more with going to ops 51 if 100M NSEA is your strongest ship.

With good crew it's manageable, but having a G4R at that same power would be a nice minimum.

[lethal coral]

A good bookmark to know if you're ready for the next step is the hostiles , go try the 51 silents, if you can comfortably farm your 12k (or 3k minimun) , then I'd say you're ready

[lapis crystal]

If for some reason faction ships aren't possible at T8 on ops 50 NSEA can get to 300M+ without using any 5*UC (only common). At that power it's comparable to maxed G4Rs.

[muted cape]

Power on special ships is not the same as normal ships. That 300m+ means nothing

[lapis crystal]

I only use the power as a layman comparison point for this particular case. I have that ship myself as well as 2 maxed G4Rs. I have plenty of practical experience.

Of course it's the stats that determin the performance. DPR, miti, pen, HHP, SHP etc.

[dull mason]

Scopley Can Keep that so-called Q Trash 🔥🗑️ event
For Pitiful 6k creds 👎🏼

[muted cape]

👀 Don’t forget the meta,

[dull mason]

They can stick it,
I'd have to hit L38's "" 12x"" time's 🤮

**
It proves a lot that no Yellows have said ZIP, Zero, about this 🔥🗑️

[junior stump]

No yellows work on the weekend

and ham does not respond to any real critiques just people saying nice things

Your wishing for something that just does not happen

[placid maple]

They may not, but this is not a random event it was planned. The new this was coming

[junior stump]

The Ahead SMS has no score for low OP players two weekends in a row zero has been said about it

they dont care its by design so people cant complete the 12 days so they give less rewards so it pushes FOMO , its not incompetence its on purpose

[feral zephyr]

It's Sunday for them, they're sleeping

[tropic wadi]

@heady moon

[dull mason]

Sadly that's
No good..

[feral zephyr]

This is the one situation where it demands a comp chest, comp chest for everyone!

[dull mason]

https://variety.com/2024/film/news/jill-jacobson-dead-falcon-crest-star-trek-actress-1236250038/

[naive escarp]

they gave us independent archives but still demand we hunt borg probes in an astronomical amount. 1 step foward, 5 steps backwards.

[naive escarp]

it's been about a month or more of major problems, particularly with events every weekend when they claim no one is working. in a game that is supposed to run 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

with no fixes, no acknowledgement and no compensation.

at the worst time of the year to be doing so.

as it's the highest chance of players leaving the game.

[vital sand]

grind, grind and more grind, boring game...

[proper junco]

Ok, today's qimas is messed up

[frank pike]

It’s no different than any of the borg probe kill events since the talios came out.

[merry whale]

Except killing around 218 probes with no extra tokens….annoying

[flat karma]

unplayable lag S38

[proper junco]

They need to reduce the kill counts for this Borg one, this is insane

[arctic iris]

what ops are you? i pout max warp crew on my talios and sent it as high as i could, completed it rather fast

[lapis crystal]

If you can get your alliance friends to rift you to a higher system that helps a lot.

For me required 33,3B points would have taken 221 kills of lvl 52 probes. Max my Talios can reach. But I rifted to lvl 58s and 35 kills completed the event.

All new research has made probes so easy that hitting there much higher than mine could reach left me with 95,8% hull remaining.

[slow isle]

Yeah those borg event kinda always assume your talios at its best for your OPS, def keep it as maxxed as possible, it can quickly hold you back

[lusty glen]

Mine is maxed for my level and needs 200+ kills to complete the event

[lapis crystal]

I mean it's still badly designed event. Shouldn't design them so that they need Eviscerator help to compleat with decent effort.

But I meantioned it because it's so huge help.

[slow isle]

Also were around 35 for me, needed Grush for one system higher than usual

Yeah, 100% borg Events got those issues for a while already, dont know about other Events with speciality ships. But maybe because of the token this one is a much bigger problem

[lapis crystal]

Yeah, at ops 53 with all warp research maxed 52s are highest it can reach. Don't remember if next up would be possible with Ghrush though. But would have taken 221 kills.

My Evis can reach 521 warp, so it saved the day.

This was really problematic for beginner ops. Like one of our ops 28. He can't use rifts yet, but even with those would have been tough one for him. And he's reasonably strong for his ops.

[solemn plaza]

Ironically having a lower talios and higher ops would have been better for this event.

[lapis crystal]

If someone can get the rift but unsure about the crew, for this where loot isn't the main point 7 crew is very strong.

[shy hamlet]

7 doesn't punch up well

[lapis crystal]

Side officers doesn't matter as long as 7 is captain with full synergy. Then max damage + Paris from bd

[shy hamlet]

honestly I'm punching up with speed crew + pvp BDA

[solemn plaza]

The event score requirements were based on talios tier. But warp range is gated by ops.

So lower tier talios = less points required, higher ops = better range, makes the event a lot easier.

[lapis crystal]

I beg to differ. Since ops 50 7 crew has cleared the wave 10 probes with ease. And now, like said killing 35 lvl 58s took me 4,2% hull

[shy hamlet]

the selling point for 7 has traditionally been that 90% of time you kill them in r1
that gets harder to do the higher level probes you shoot

[lapis crystal]

Maybe if base iso is very low you would lack damage if he doesn't trigger

[shy hamlet]

ease doesn't prove it helped without showing that other crews did worse, because 58's are joke easy

[slow isle]

Hmm, guess then actually misunderstood it. Well keeping your speciality ships at a decent level is still important though lol

[lapis crystal]

It doesn't need to be round 1. 7 multiplies the shots through the whole battle.

[shy hamlet]

yes, but the strength comes from killing the probe before it can shoot back any meaningful amount. once you make it to the end of r1 or past that's no longer happening

[solemn plaza]

This was my event at ops 54.

[slow isle]

Got the same one at ops49

[shy hamlet]

I'm not yet 58 and I had 33 billion for some reason despite us having the same ship tier (in theory, at least)

[solemn plaza]

I haven't upgraded my Talios since I was ops 46

[shy hamlet]

usually talios/vi'dar events scale to ops, not ship tier. wondering if they messed with that this go-round

[lapis crystal]

But what do you suggest 7 crew is losing if battle goes beyond round 1? It remains it's massive damage boost from extra shots and you achieve hard cap ~71% miti with Paris below.

Using T'Laan / Cath isn't good when punching up, unless talking about boosting with Cerritos + Titan. Like on Trials.

[slow isle]

And mine is ops locked until ops50

[solemn plaza]

I rushed very quickly from 45 to 54. Talios didn't keep up.

[solemn plaza]

It's based on talios tier this time. 100% sure of that

[solemn plaza]

Yeah you're T8?

[shy hamlet]

90% of the time, your crew is 3x damage. 100% of the time, Pike at fill synergy prevents another 70% of the damage your hull would take. those are really similar

[slow isle]

Yeah, t8

[solemn plaza]

Wonder how Pike/Mudd/Harrison would do. That's the crew I use for the Rev.

[lapis crystal]

It depends on pattern beyond round 1 kill. If you can kill them 90% of time before round 4 you gain advantage over static PMT damage cacellation. Aa long as that 10% doesn't go to round 10.

I did testing on waves as well as on simulator.

[dull mason]

I can't afford to do Borg probes "12"+ time's
It's rigged to fail

[solemn plaza]

Hit higher, Try harder, Do better.

[dull mason]

It would fail, doing L38 isn't great

[minor furnace]

All those %'s of %'s...

Makes me think Bernie was in the chat lol

[whole robin]

for whoever was wondering mirror loot token does NOT work on ship parts or rep

DOES work on Omega trellium which is the only use for it if you have NSEA

the description somewhere just says Tellium A and D but it works on omega too

so if you wanna farm a couple months worth of omega trellium in one trip it works

even with the exocomp and pilum loot bonus I Get more loot from the chest from lv50s lol

back to farming enterprises and miners 😄

[torpid kestrel]

Ops 43 borg even need 341M... That 280 level 42 probes.... not worth my time. @heady moon event is excessive

[whole robin]

ops 50 I finished it in two kills on lvl50s lol

with tier 4 Talios

put on PMC and go bigger

at ops 50 I only needed 136m points hmm

might be based on your talios tier rather than ops level

oh might have been 3 lv50 probes

[severe scroll]

This event made me glad I've always enjoyed farming Borg.

[whole robin]

ya'll need to kill bigger

[severe scroll]

I'm ops 50 and i had to get 13 billion points

[whole robin]

must be based on talios tier then

because I'm ops 50 and I only needed 136m

but my talios is only tier 4

[severe scroll]

My talios is t9

[whole robin]

yep that's it then

what level of probe did you kill

[torpid kestrel]

Can't. Tallyho isnt able to get higher.

[severe scroll]

Lvl52 probes

[torpid kestrel]

T5 tallyho

[whole robin]

did you do you warp research??

both the normal warp research and the talios-specific one

[torpid kestrel]

Yep

[whole robin]

hm my Talios has 190 warp can reach 50s at tier 4 but I'm ops 50

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[torpid kestrel]

Warp 97 is it's best.

[subtle shore]

cant hit higher than 52s at ops 50 due to warp limitation. 54s require warp range over 300

[whole robin]

ahhh

so I guess I just lucked out with my tier 4 Talios then LOL

3 kills I was done

but ya the ops 43 guy in a bad spot one more ops level and you would've had +20 warp range

[torpid kestrel]

Yep..

[severe scroll]

I had to do two runs because i maxed out cargo on the first run and didn't want to waste inert probes

[whole robin]

my talios maxxes cargo right about the time it dies

or just under max cargo

[severe scroll]

I max out cargo somewhere between 1/3 - 1/2 health

[torpid kestrel]

Vidars warp research is ops 44

Can't get to that nor the next warp core for it

Event is excessive

[severe scroll]

I'm hoping tomorrow's is a bit more tame

[torpid kestrel]

Going to bed, not even going to bother with it

[whole robin]

ahhh server reset the daily lagfest

dailies reset*

[narrow isle]

Oh man the game is Lagcity. Always getting a connection error, request item error, or “error 5”.

Is there some sort of prime pack for the issue we can buy?🤣🤣

[austere mauve]

Looks like something this one would cook up from ACME.

[simple drum]

The pack uses scopely math, so the 25% reduction in lag is only 2%.

[tropic wadi]

@simple drum

[little oxide]

Hey any level 39 that did the 3 Borg battled sms?

[tawdry oriole]

Dear Mr Scopely.
I think it would be more user friendly if instead of using rift in mirror space, up to 3 times before our ship will set course.... perhaps using the rift 10 or more times, before course will lock in would be a quality of life improvement, that all players would benefit from.🤷‍♂️👍👍

[split quarry]

Another arena, another experience on par with an uncomfortable morning bowel movement.

At this point you you’d pulled tournaments to “get it right” and “provide a good experience”

Clearly you don’t care about this feature? Yet you have the gall to still lock a ship behind broken and frustrating content?

I’m normally pretty understanding but even I’m getting over it. 🥱

[near bloom]

Ops 42 ain’t pretty either

[near bloom]

I think the problem is you have your experience, which I absolutely believe is genuine and honestly held, and you have my experience with the rest on our team where we’ve had maybe one lag fest, one battle which was never really going to be winnable but for the very large part of the feature has been great fun and fairly evenly matched.

Today just to spite me we’re gonna get a 💩 show, but honestly, three runs now and my only complaint of note is that the timing starts at “just before you go get your kid from school” and finishes right after time with the wife.

[subtle vortex]

Been weeks since I was able to play a match.. beating the dead drum of the timing of arenas sucks.. but they don't seem to care

[silver parcel]

apac and us last time were running like molasses.

There was some yacht tipping.

[near bloom]

My dislike is that for incursions they talk about how you can’t please everyone and shift the days between weekdays and weekends

But here we are, can’t please everyone, so… what, we just don’t try?

[subtle vortex]

They could at least try a different day/time. Sticking to one thing because it impossible to please everyone is asinine

Rotate the day it runs each week/ every couple of weeks try something. Instead they have locked a ship behind the content with no attempt to fix it for those who can't play then

[normal elm]

just make it daily

[near bloom]

Was going to agree with this, but I wonder if fatigue would set in and matches deteriorate because of lack of participation

And before anyone says, yes, they can get much worse.

[normal elm]

wouldn't hurt to try, or set a limit you can participate twice a week

[tawdry oriole]

But that would be logical. 🤷‍♂️😅

[normal elm]

the worst thing that could happen would be decreased sales of unreachable content.. oh wait

bah, i dont even play this, off to have some breakfast

[near bloom]

Oh, in which case, you’re not allowed an opinion!

That’s what was levelled at me, right?

😂

[vague gull]

My alliance has one team running for arena and that team only runs because they’ve got a team setup to game the algorithm. Everyone else has given up on 💩 matches and lag

[minor furnace]

Heh... Breakfast...

For me..

That is 4 days away.

[normal elm]

that is some weird diet

[minor furnace]

Nah. Just not hungry

But I have not done a fasting session in a couple months.

But I am strong as an Ox pulling a Conestoga 🙂

[normal elm]

hmm, maybe you need to tick all the boxes containing a traffic light

[near bloom]

I’m still not sure on how you “game” the algorithm. Eventually every single time you’re going to get dragged above your station.

In order to game it that team needs to change regularly

Eventually your ranking is going to drag you to the top end of your average ops matchup and then pain will happen

[minor furnace]

Pain...

Glad I did not bet any money on yesterday's games

[buoyant scarab]

So far I have only seen two arena’s where the rank was incorporated in the matching.

[near bloom]

Nearly every one I’ve seen with someone (generally with an obnoxious demeanour towards people on here) really angry about their match ups they’re either way above their station in ranking or their opponents are on their way up.

There have been a couple that looked like genuinely they shouldn’t have matched full stop, but there’s a lot where people are sat screeching about how unfair it is they’ve been paired with a team with an average ops level two or three higher than them with a bunch of platinum ranked players in their team and bronze on the higher ops opponents.

[vague gull]

In my alliance ops 59 starts, ops 66 carries ops 52 drags down the average. On our leaderboard the ops 52 and 59 have literally been carried by the 66 and they are the top of the leaderboard with 40k arena rating

One or two games an hour they get matched against a 70 and they lose

[near bloom]

Eventually that is going to bite them hard, as the average ops they battle creeps up to the point where the 59 and 52 aren’t coping.

One good big player only gets you so far.

[vague gull]

Yeah to the top of the area ratings

[near bloom]

Now, in fairness, I also believe that as part of improvements allowing cross-alliance play they should also include a shrinking of the band to +/-3

[vague gull]

I’m not saying this like they aren’t at the top. They are literally at the top of APAC leading by 5k points and the next closest to them is a ops 70 😅

[near bloom]

Ahhh

APAC

Different rules apply cos there’s like ten of you on a good day.
