[woeful compass]

that 8 hour window is just plain stupid

[warm venture]

I only participated in the first 3 runs....after that, everyone in my alliance has lost interest

[split storm]

My limit wasn't enough I need 6 more please and thanks you

[warm venture]

you can get those particles from Ex-Borg faction store (up to 100 every 5 days) and the section 31 faction store (10 per day)

[dusky cove]

I mean, it's fundamentally broken in its current form. By that I'm not talking about specific bugs or matchmaking or the like (though those aren't helping) but when people who want to run arenas like me can't convince enough people to form a team in 4 hours something is clearly wrong with the accessability and/or rewards of a loop

[solemn plaza]

Do we know what the limit is?

[dusky cove]

I won't be able to do any refines this week because peoples motivation is largely dead, especially with the mastermove to run a formation armada event at the same time

Would be nice if that was indicated in the event store as is generally the case

[quartz perch]

I consider it a completely different event now and feel I have had fleet commander Lorca skill points stolen do to the cap

[dull mason]

Yeah, bring back the 3 day Apex event 🤣

[ebon raven]

Worm madas

[whole robin]

How much does g5 innovative engineering cost

[dull mason]

The archive is okay,
More loop's it's good,
Hirogen, Cardassian, exchange, Borg repeat is getting really OLD 🤦🏼‍♂️

[wraith moat]

Oh we had the same team against us twice tonight in arenas, twice they got spanked. Rough for them. Good for us. But overall bad for the game there's so few doing them

[silver parcel]

24k uncommon

[whole robin]

Dang I dont have enough anyhiw

[lethal coral]

If something is "always" there, wouldn't it make more sense to display said limit that is "always" there ? Idk just seems like a very simple thing to do that could eliminate 92% of the complaints and questions regarding said event store. Also makes one feel like there is no limit when many other things have a "limit" shown and some don't.

[silver parcel]

Wishful thinking that it would eliminate 92% of the complaints and questions when people still gripe about the limits, lol

but yeah they should have all the limits posted, but they often forget to include them

[lethal coral]

Well yes that 8% will continue to want more and more, but that is with everything, can't ever get 100% satisfaction. Just is bizarre that in the year I've been playing, not once was every limit properly displayed, just makes your job harder and more repetitive imo

[dusky cove]

Indeed but if the limit had been clear I would've spent my currency differently. I do wonder how much currency we'll get in total, doubt we'll get enough for 6x prime dolamide and the echo beam shard for example

[dull mason]

The 2k Loot limit is really bad

They should run event's that that involve hitting Ship's with ZERO Loot ( for specific event's) if Scopley is worried about auto farming,
Or
Player's should be able to auto hunt that ( zero loot ) type of ship, while player's are AFK

[frank pike]

The point of the hostile limit was to stop people running scripts for hours auto-hunting hostiles for them for scoring

[woeful compass]

good thing I can see my event store currency loool

[vagrant vapor]

new events 5 hours after event reset? 👀

[silver parcel]

event was supposed to be up but was missing

it has now been added

[vagrant vapor]

if only fixing the different lag experiences was that easy

[thorn narwhal]

clear your localisations

[vagrant vapor]

nah, i'm going to go to bed. it'll still be there tomorrow

[steep aspen]

anything for us plebs under 40?

[dull mason]

2025 Year of the Grind

[silver parcel]

doesn't look like it, hamster has brought it up to them, as have others

[steep aspen]

do you at least acknowledge the absurdity? This wasn't even a missing event, it just ran earlier this week, and its taken care of within a few hours. While under 40 have been missing the doomsday event for almost a week, under 38 had nothing on the freebooters day, and there's barely any peep from CMs or mods about it (I looked back in this channel on 2/4 and 2/8, nothing). 40+ already have more event store currency than below 40 are likely to see for the whole month.

[silver parcel]

It was a missing event though

And they've said on numerous occasions that the arcs are going to focus on 40+

[steep aspen]

the Gorn event ran on the 4th when there wasn't one schedeuled, it was just misplaced not missing

and the Doomsday event is legitimately missing

[forest geyser]

Matchmaking is still highly highly questionable

[steep aspen]

this doesn't mean that under 40 should be ignored like this

it costs you nothing to acknowledge that the 40+ nonissue being resolved so quickly while the 39- issue remains is absurd considering the difference in event store currency potential between the two groups

[whole robin]

Wow a lv48 with a 185mil Pilum

Must have spent 20 grand on that account why not just rise ops lol

[oblique prism]

are you on a server that is ops locked to 39?

[steep aspen]

no, but I hit 39 a week ago, and I have a lot of prep to do before I am ready for 40

and even if I was 40, it wouldn't change the subpar treatment of the lower ops players

[dusky cove]

The arcs should have rewards to help people get to G4 but yeah, the new ships/research etc. will be geared to ops 40 and higher which isn't too surprising

[steep aspen]

not asking for the new ships/research, just for enough event store currency to buy useful things

[wind zephyr]

I wasn't certain why you tagged me the first time in this, but to tag me again in a copy and paste of the first message, made only 10 hours earlier, has me a little confused.

As CCs, all we can do, is bring it to the attention of people you have already tagged in your post. 🤷‍♂️

[ornate glade]

Is there a hidden limit on the Prime Particles? 😦

[silver parcel]

yes

[ornate glade]

Not cool 😦 It didn't have the "limit" marker

Now I'm bummed out 😦

[little violet]

I am more cheesed off about the eviscerator part limits

[silver parcel]

tiering it up resets it, lol

[little violet]

cool

3 days to tier 11

[ornate glade]

What resets my prime one? 😉

[little violet]

packs 😛

Now all we need is the slow drip for this prime particle...

seems like I am short of points

[dull mason]

The Gorn event is going to take me 7/8 more Weeks
The the vindicator " unknown "
The Rav " unknown " I need 150'ish bps still to go
Monaveen I need All of them...
I have about 48? NSEA protector bps

[strong nacelle]

@heady moon Arenas are so far from fixed it’s not even funny. If I had to put a number on it I’d say they are 10%better than they were before scopely took them down. We should still be receiving a comp for them until they are not nerfed by speed and the lag is fixed.

[little violet]

Monaveen is easy.. and only obtainable through tc. Ask to join someone with the refinery they're cheap bps

[dull mason]

I've been trying but no help 😒

[little violet]

Are you a pirate on your server? I mean shouldn't be that hard to get someone to allow you in for bps

[dull mason]

No, I'm just someone who plays a few hours a day when I can And attempt's all event's when I can

[shy hamlet]

i think they don't like his complaining amounts

[little violet]

Still doesn't make sense that people wouldn't allow you in their alliance

Probably

playing in a solo alliance is really holding you back

[heady moon]

What the main issue? Performance or matchmaking. (don't say both!)

Come on now Hammy, performance is terrible but match,among has been broken since day 1

[little violet]

https://tenor.com/view/why-not-both-why-not-take-both-gif-11478682

[heady moon]

So matchmaking is numero uno?

[hot dove]

You mean yous cant fix both!

[heady moon]

That's not what I mean!

[strong nacelle]

No….. the onky stratagey any team could use against mega whales was speed. Now that the speed is gone and performance is as bad as the matchmaking there is no reason to even play

[heady moon]

Ah.

[little violet]

arenas might be fun it wasn't so hard to find a match.. Then you get paired against a whale thathas ships that move so fast you can't follow them... Watch paint dry for two minutes...; Then the match is over...

[strong nacelle]

Has the team considered the fact that it might not be the speed as much as it is the cube itself? Has anyone tried running full speed tests with no cubes?my alliance still will not run cubes in waves as they ARE a source of lag there.

[opaque badger]

Cube is broken in waves too, I doubt the devs know that because it’s not in the cash shop

[little violet]

https://tenor.com/view/benjammins-shop-windows-checking-out-strolling-scouting-gif-7686297876987716594

Ham, is the alliance tournament locked in for a certain date each month?

[arctic crown]

<@&509690795536941056> is there a reason behind the removal of SLBs from the event calendar? A few are in the calendar for this month, but we've already had 4 extra ones added (including an unscheduled FT upgrade event 3 days before the scheduled FT upgrade event 🙃). Last month, no SLBs were listed at all, and we had at least 25 (with seemingly no pattern).

[lean trench]

Does anyone know where the 6,000 Event Store Currency is at because I don’t see it anywhere on on my “Gifts” Tab

[minor furnace]

It was part of the exocomp gift you got. If the seska exocomp is in your inventory, then you recieved the 6000 neturino

[little violet]

Garbage match 😦

Weee and the game crashed

why is the speed crew now working on my nsea

wow 165 points for a loss now.. why...

No wonder people are complaining about these...

[warm pivot]

it gets worse the higher your rank. from gold 2 onwards you need a winratio < 50% to advance

[dull mason]

O'Dear,
Even I'm fed-up with Arena and I've never done any 👎🏼

[warm pivot]

so whenever you see a platinum you already know, these guys farmed hard

[crystal dock]

The stability is worse this week than the last couple weeks.

[frank pike]

Yup, lag in arenas is still really really bad. Second match ships would stop moving entirely then rubber and all over.

When a loss costs as much or more rank than a win can earn, lag makes doing an arena match even less palatable, <@&509690795536941056>

[crystal dock]

Im still getting stuck in warp and battles. I have done a few now and crashed in everyone. Once 3 times

[warm pivot]

the table for win loss ratio is literally above, a loss costing more then a win earn is never the case

[crystal dock]

In platinum the win loss are the same

[frank pike]

When you lose and drop a rank, next win earns less than that loss

[little violet]

Speed crews only work half the time in the arena 😕

[wary frost]

yo @heady moon the buff for loot on the relativity needs to be about 20 times higher,

when it gets 98 loot compared to a normal ship getting 2000 that aint good

[frank pike]

It’s because the speed cap isn’t always seeming to work. Ships with ludicrous speed still seem to move faster than other ships at the cap

[warm pivot]

ahhh, so you are at gold 3 to 2, yeah... i remember that barrier well and didnt like it either

[crystal dock]

The stability this week has been my biggest problem with arena today.

[warm pivot]

stability was fine for me, but it feels clunky and with the impulse cap there is no more skill involved, just wallets

[crystal dock]

Agreed with that

I honestly can't wait to get all the premium dust and be done with arenas

[strong nacelle]

@heady moon If scopes can’t get arenas fixed… and I mean fixed without nerfing it and calling it “fixed”. We need a weekly drip of Arena rank points plus Arena emblems. Arenas have been basically down or non functional for 8 weeks now and no one wants to play when it is this broken.

[warm pivot]

i finally got my vindicator unlocked and am saving for g6 efficience for as long as i can hold my rank xD

[devout vector]

Yup its a bad system. It encourages me to only play when i can get an almost perfect group setup

[crystal dock]

I had a lot of fun with it but without speed it's a chore to do every week. I love the mechanic as a whole and I'm really sad to see it like this.

[warm pivot]

loosing feels overall too punishing. nobody wants to be Sisyphos.

[crystal dock]

It is getting harder and harder to form a group every week

It took me 2 and a half hours to just get a group together today

[warm pivot]

i m part of that problem as well, when i get enough for a whole week of low pulls i am out, despite alliance mates still looking for 1 more guy

[crystal dock]

I try to get full pulls for the week but man it's getting harder to do that

[heady moon]

You mean the free test of the exo today?

[little violet]

Close, but so far away 😕

[wary frost]

no, the free test today was for the officer. im talking about the realitivity itself, i have mine at t4, i have the research for lot buff at level 4 which is 250%, but because of the horrible way that rewards from armadas are based on power, my relativity gets 98 loot, while if i use a faction ship i get 2000 loot. they need to change armadas to just give an even split of loot between the ships present.

[little violet]

Send a big ship to the other leg. That way you get more loot

[wary frost]

I know how to get around it, i shouldnt have to take up a 2nd slot to get loot

all armadas should be an even split of loot,

[little violet]

Or they need the relativity buff to be something wickedly crazy the eviscerator

[split lark]

Just successfully watched the new movie Star Trek Section 31. Can anyone tell me which freighter was in the movie?

[little violet]

Or vinculum

[solemn plaza]

No, just no. That's not what we want.
Maybe just for the Relativity stuff.

[lethal coral]

Relativity doesn't have a loot node for the armada stuff? 😅

So it's just a rep machine basically

[warm pivot]

as if section 31 had anything to do with star trek... wouldnt wonder if it was a star wars shuttle 🤣

[solemn plaza]

The loot research increases temporal wreckage

[wary frost]

it does have a loot node, is just so much less powerful than all other ships in them, 250% of 0 is still 0 lol

[wary frost]

only people that want power based are high levels leeching loot from lower players armadas 😛

[lethal coral]

Is that the krenim solos stuff??

[dull mason]

https://memory-beta.fandom.com/wiki/Earth_Cargo_Service

[wary frost]

no, its the stuff from formation krenim,

[solemn plaza]

Nope.

[lethal coral]

Ah okay, that's not bad, do the higher ones atleast give a good starter ? To offset the no loot?

[solemn plaza]

Nah it's the formation loot stuff.

[muted cape]

be better to have option to block ships joining , you can star players in if to many ships but cannot stop them joining 😐

[humble orbit]

Wow, didn't know this game's miner designs were canon.

[lethal coral]

No point in having billions power ships help kill the lower ones , I imagine hitting the higher ones makes it worth it ?

[solemn plaza]

Maybe if you play with toxic players that don't know what they're doing.

[solemn plaza]

Nope. Got 44 loot from a lvl50, only using G5 ships. The Relativity is just really really small.

It needs a power buff like the Ent-A got way back.

[silver parcel]

needs a bigger loot buff

[dull mason]

It looks ancient from Stargate

[solemn plaza]

Would need to make it like base 10k%

[wary frost]

unless its 10-20 times what it is now it wont matter, so like my 250% buff would need to be 2500, mayb,e just maybe once its actually tiered up to match your ops level it will be better, but for now, its horrid

[neat pecan]

Has anyone experienced ship power loss ? I have for 3 or 4 days now ?

[lethal coral]

Sounds like it's more geared to be like the stella.. only the stella is allowed in exchange armadas. Now we need 12 relativities to get some loots 😆

[solemn plaza]

It's supposedly pretty good once it hits G6 stuff.

[wary frost]

that will only take 6 months 😛

[solemn plaza]

Yeah but then you'd need to have some very high tiered relativities to actually be able to kill it.

[wary frost]

im still waiting on my vindicator and eviscerator to get there , and ive had them since day 1 of their release

[warm pivot]

https://tenor.com/view/no-bugs-bunny-nope-gif-4095597578532971838

[humble orbit]

It's not, it was designed for a mix of rela + faction ships.

[split lark]

But it was seen in the new Star Trek Section 21 movie together with Philippa Georgiou (Madame du Franc)

[warm pivot]

designed badly, because of the lootsplit ^^

[solemn plaza]

I'd "only" need 9 of the special packs to max it for my ops restrictions.

[warm pivot]

kurtzman startrek has nothing to do with canon, sorry to break it to you

[humble orbit]

Yeah, but bypassing the design with 12 relas wasn't intended.

[dull mason]

Yeah I get that LoL

[solemn plaza]

How big does the Relativity even get once it's mid tiered? Say at like T8 or T9

[wary frost]

ive mostly like SNW, rest of trek for the last bit has felt more like fanfic. havent watched section 31 though

[humble orbit]

All star trek is canon, even galaxy quest. 😈

[split lark]

I don't quite understand what you mean by that

[warm pivot]

it doesnt officially fit into the star trek universe, its an abomination of the IP

[lethal coral]

This flaw is always prevailing with new specialty ships, higher ops players always find it harder to get the loop going bc of the size of said specialty ships. Just gonna have to give it a few months to play with the numbers, maybe it's better for high tier g4 ships to carry a 43 than it is for g5 ships to carry a 50.

[humble orbit]

I checked, looks like a third of the size of a max G5e.

[dull mason]

I never liked the discovery Klingons 😒😒, it messed with the OG Trek

[solemn plaza]

So about 600-800mill ish give or take.

[wary frost]

i had more of a problem with burnham than the klingons. she was obtuse...

[humble orbit]

That's T9 though, they get much bigger. Could be interesting to see what this ship is capable of in a year.

[solemn plaza]

T10 is the cap for G5 players.

[humble orbit]

Potential to be a new pvp king.

[lethal coral]

Im sure someone on vip server already has one with a years worth of salary put into it 😆

[solemn plaza]

Unless there's ways to get G6 mats at ops 60?

[warm pivot]

if only that king would grow faster lol

[split lark]

But the star map shown at the beginning of the movie looks very much like the Star Trek universe

[lethal coral]

💳

[dull mason]

Yeah, too much Vulcan, for a human
And Why didn't she stay with other family

[wary frost]

yeah, our server had a few dump a lot into them, but they also dont know how to crew or do anything really, so they arent a good gauge

[solemn plaza]

Wouldn't be surprised if Istio already maxed it.

[warm pivot]

thats what i said, an abomination... its like wesley crusher being a middle aged old man armwrestling with spock in his prime, thats not valid in true star trek lore

[wary frost]

wasnt even the too much vulcan, she was very illogical, and always made horrible choices. yet kept getting promoted and pushed higher

[lethal coral]

Nothing worse than seeing kirk keenser grush flying in on a 60+ 😆😆

[warm pivot]

trust me there is worse than keenser xD

ive seen jaylah in an armadacrew ^^

[split lark]

ok it seems that as a German I don't quite understand your English humor or sarcasm

[dull mason]

I wished an older t'pol would have made an appearance

[warm pivot]

and it was not a swarmada

[warm pivot]

der regisseur der für den neuen star trek müll zuständig ist hält sich nicht an die regeln von startrek. er erfindet neue sachen ohne rücksicht auf verluste und zerstört die star trek IP

Wie borg im streichelzoo oder derartigen unsinn

you understand it now?

[lethal coral]

So i tried having one of my alliance mates with an mk2 rev try the 1.1 group and we didn't even dent the aura around the shield 😥 do we need more than 1 mk2 rev?

[wary frost]

yes

[solemn plaza]

Yes and you'll probably need to buff the 💩 out of it.

[lethal coral]

Oh we had all the buffs and their mommas 😭

Was embarrassing tbh xD

But okay, those dam 50s are so weak and easy like why can't there be higher lvl ones

[wary frost]

Basically, if you look at the charts, you will see how much health they have, if you can take out say, a 6 million 1.0 with a group, chances are you can also take out a 4-6 million 1.1

[split lark]

I found the movie quite exciting and well made. And Star Trek continues to develop over the course of time. You can't stay stuck in the past

[wary frost]

even though my ship is only t8, im already taking out .2s for 3-4 times the loot i could be getting from .1s

[warm pivot]

dude... that movie PLAYED in the past, and the past was already written... and he tried to rewrite it. thats the point

[solemn plaza]

Yeah the jump from the 3.0 to the 3.1 is pretty big.

[wary frost]

we were taking out 3.1s with no mark 2 ships

[solemn plaza]

Good for you have a 🍪

[split lark]

By the way, my mom always told me when I was a kid that Klingons don't tell the truth 🙈 😜

[hollow silo]

Hello all

[wary frost]

and we are now taking out 54 and 56.2s with no mark 3s. takes a good group and max fort, but the loot is a whole lot better

[warm pivot]

you are right, it was the romulans that always honor their dead and aim for Sto'Vo'Kor 🤪

[wary frost]

i do get my cookie, every time we kill them and i get enough loot to keep up max pulls 🙂

[rough wharf]

Be nice if you really nice if you would fix arenas!! Nice line up to 2 ship may be out!! What a crock. Still lost mining nodes again.

[craggy vessel]

Thanks!

[quaint sparrow]

if you are doing a solo armada and you have a loot officer on each ship does it stack? or does it just take the highest ones stats?

[frank pike]

At around t5-6 it’ll have the dpr output, vs the krenim solos at least, of a g5 maxed epic

[silver parcel]

but won't have the survival

lol

[dull mason]

It should.

[shy hamlet]

loot is divided by ships based on power, them each ship's share of the loot is boosted by that ship's loot bonus.

[quaint sparrow]

thanks homie

[split dagger]

anyone know if impulse speed was reduced again in arenas? it didn't affect my tally with speed crew last week (all that much) but today it was horrible

[shell marsh]

Yes I got the same question. Haven't gone in yet. Did they keep the cap? If so.....dumb dumbs.

Definitely won't even bother playing arena

[silver parcel]

cap is still there

[solemn plaza]

Since it's not listed, does anyone know what the purchase limit is on the Dolamide from the event store?

[minor furnace]

I would not be surprised if it is only 5 (1200 total)

[nimble stump]

Last I saw it was 10 pulls for a total of 2400 but I have not personally tested it.

[solemn plaza]

Thank you.

[steep aspen]

imagine having 220k event store currency. I'd be happy with half that at this point.

[near bloom]

I have half 🙂

[oak basin]

used to be routine to come away with 300k+ even as f2p

https://tenor.com/view/reminiscing-good-old-day-old-memorize-gif-11810785

[near bloom]

I know, I remember when I got my Pilum on my first account and I didn’t have to buy event store currency packs to get 800k and buy the cloak and a bunch of cool stuff.

[pale jewel]

And didn't we get more loot in week 3 the last two event stores? Maybe wait for week 3 (and do all relevant events until then).

[red stag]

Hi a question guys in my alliance say that they are gifted for 200 krenim formation directives at beginning of event while I get only 100

Is it my issue (so I have to write assistance) or is it them being lucky?

[leaden meadow]

yesterday's gift was only 100
I think 200 might have been last week

[red stag]

Ok so they were lucky or don't remember correctly how many directives they had

[leaden meadow]

Probably the second thing yes
It's hard to get an overview of it, since you can pull the directives twice every week or so from the DTI faction store, get some gifted for free, get some for completing last milestone in event,...
It would surprise me if they knew where they got their directives from

[royal oyster]

If you took the first pull right after arcfall the timer gave you another pull 1hr before it left the gift tab

[half hornet]

Botany Bay in Independent Archives have same bonuses several levels, is it because they don't change, or they stack each level ?

[slow isle]

https://tenor.com/view/worried-kermit-kermit-the-frog-muppets-stressed-gif-7121337

I am already afraid of those milestones...

[slow isle]

they all stack together https://startrekfleetcommand.com/news/exploring-the-independent-archives-unlocking-powerful-bonuses/

[leaden meadow]

Only doomsday?
Haven't had this in over a year probably
There's 10 hostiles per system and about 500 people needing to do the event, will be very interesting

[slow isle]

I hope those descriptions are just the wrong, like so often

[topaz burrow]

Can someone tell me where im supposed to spend these at? Cant find it.

[shell crag]

Dti faction store

[topaz burrow]

Ahhh okay. They have the wrong pic representing the wrong currency, as usual. Thanks!

[dull mason]

I don't even have a half of that amount

[solemn plaza]

I've already managed to get the Vindicator and I'm about half way to get the whip.

Does the new ship replace the Excomp re normal Krenum IAs?

[little violet]

Yes

[shy hamlet]

it can, but you're stepping down potentially drastically in power sent until the relativity catches up to your two best ships

[little violet]

I was still able to kill a 62 with it 🤷

[shy hamlet]

the exos are free anyway so I don't see the point there

[little violet]

THinking about trying a 64 with two big ships. I had to buff like a crazy to still kill the 62

[earnest raven]

Anyone know when does the Seska exo's expire?

[little violet]

Event points

[little violet]

30 minutes I think

[earnest raven]

I mean I haven't had a chance to use it yet. Do they stay in my inventory till I use it or will they go away soon?

[little violet]

It is a combat exo

[earnest raven]

Ok, will they stay in my combat Exo list till I use it or will they go away soon?

[little violet]

It will stay there.

[shy hamlet]

eh fair enough

[little violet]

It was a stupid point differential without the ship. I was forced to see if the ship and my ent d could take out a 62

[glossy granite]

the increased rep was nice

[little violet]

Rep?

[glossy granite]

yes relativity has bonus for encrypted intelligence

which can be exchanged for faction rep

[little violet]

I am still waiting for building 45 to unlock roms

[glossy granite]

its not building level

[little violet]

To use my encrypted intel

[glossy granite]

depends on ur rep rank

[little violet]

It is building level to get the currency to unlock another rep

[glossy granite]

unlocks at chief detective and chief inspecter i think

[solemn plaza]

The special currency to unlock the rep choices is rep based.
The bonus currency to buy rep is building level based.

[little violet]

So Klingon is next.. Garbage

[half hornet]

Any tricks to get Unc FC Credits at 25ops ?

[glossy granite]

what are those

the ones to exchange for sp?

[little violet]

If you click on the 100 thing is say building 60, lol

[solemn plaza]

That's used to buy the currency to exchange for rep, not to unlock the rep choice.

[half hornet]

no, to rank up fleet commander

[little violet]

Nice

[glossy granite]

dunno, I only remembered FC were after I reached G4

[little violet]

There going to be another upgrade the relativity event coming?

I been to lazy to look at the schedule

[solemn plaza]

Should start today I think

[glossy granite]

I don't bother looking haiz

dont even bother participating cos theres only so many relativities on the server

[little violet]

Yep

[glossy granite]

cfm can get a reward just by doing some random upgrade

[little violet]

Well i know I am not going to win cause I am not buying upgrade packs... but I can place..

[solemn plaza]

With how few people actually seem to have the ship should.be able to place pretty good.

[little violet]

61+ definitely bought it for the G6 BP refinery...

Next syndicate event is actually listed ... nice

Glad I kept my tokens now

Nvm.. that is the new artifacts... Proabably

[glossy granite]

?

[little violet]

That ship refinery..

Holding my Victory stuff till my refinery is tier 5 now..

20 bps and uncommons go bye bye

20 bps per pull= a lot of saved faction credits

I mean the only way that refinery is not appealing to you is if you're lvl 70 with your epics already built

really

[ivory prism]

anyone else on EU servers finding extra lag? its taking me 20/30 seconds to pull parts chest in refinery

[limber latch]

Guys

Sbluld i get sectiib 31 refit

[little violet]

@heady moon Sorry, to bug ya so early, but do you guys have a set day for the alliance tournament this month?

[woeful compass]

or invasions

really need demarco😂

[little violet]

That was supposed to run twice a month 😦

[spiral coral]

Maybe twice a month on Saturn it is a space game after all

[glossy granite]

oh this thing, this is more faction store but ok

[glossy granite]

it adds lorca to the disco recruit

[tepid lotus]

Very small trickle of lorca shards, I don't see a use for it now since he's in the transporter patterns.

So I would not spend money on it now, and in the event store, I would only have it as a filler after you got everything else you wanted first.

[woeful compass]

also any merger plans? with one of the biggest whales in the game quitting we must've jumped the list right?😂 @heady moon

[oblique prism]

who quit? Beam?

[woeful compass]

yeah

[oblique prism]

maybe if more mega whales quit they will adjust their marketing strategy 😉

[woeful compass]

he quit over a month ago

[dull mason]

This Game needs " Event skipping" token's for when player's can't get online/ do particular event's
Because one of those, thing's could save a player from loosing the battlepass...
@heady moon
@queen jolt

[little violet]

There has been a few that quit

[little violet]

Its still a bp refinery. You exchange good for bps

[heady moon]

Should have an announcement about that soonish I think.

[little violet]

Was looking for the last one but nothing was there. Just something about comp chests

[woeful compass]

''soonish''🤣

[woeful compass]

last one was Jan 22nd

[heady moon]

Had to ballpark it

[little violet]

Kind of figured it was already locked in. Was thinking the last week of the arc or close to the last days of the arc

[woeful compass]

be nice to know more than 1 day in advance tho

prepare the alliance and all that

[tepid lotus]

I agree, the date's locked in. It's Thoon.

Sadly I've been away longer than anticipated and will miss the battlepass daily 😒.!

[tepid lotus]

https://tenor.com/view/fox-soon-licking-gif-21505965

Better picture?

[hasty tree]

Ewww - Kill Swarms for an event, I am really starting to dislike this arc runner.

may aswell toss worms at us next......

[near bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/hot-hotdogs-in-face-gif-22427829

[mighty oak]

How do you get a second task to open for Suder’s tasks? Complete the first task yesterday and nothing new today? Is it OPS locked?

[dull mason]

Still horrible PICTURE

[mighty oak]

😂 NVM I found it. Wasn’t located under the Suder’s tasks

[little violet]

I completed about 7 missions and not one counted... Do they have to be ops 61 mission?

[mighty oak]

Was way down near the daily folder. When I clicked on it it disappeared and went under the Suder’s folder

[dull mason]

Sadly the Arc as I know it is useless for me, due to RL stuff

[woeful compass]

so @heady moon how much time do think we have?

[warm pivot]

@queen jolt are those guys in live ops serious? 🤪
i really hope higher ops than mine dont scale into absurdity this time

[woeful compass]

always the same fricking problem with these events

the hostiles are lvl capped, but you guys keep increasing the amount needed, cause you aint thinking it through😂

[quartz talon]

Isn't that only 45 hostiles unless I did my math wrong? That's not awful I think? Like it's not great but should only take 30 minutes or so at the most

[tepid lotus]

Depends on what you can kill.

[ornate glade]

Did they ever fix the bug with the 12 hour shields?

[tepid lotus]

Seems like they always bias those events with the expectation that you can kill the top level hostiles.

[quartz talon]

well the complaint was they don't have high enough level hostiles so presumably they can kill the 50s

[meager kestrel]

unless 500 people on your server need to hit the 50's

[tiny tendon]

Its Cardassian hunt all over again. Content they stopped scaling years ago.

[dull mason]

It's why I
Want
"Event skip Token's "

[dull mason]

Years and Years ago

[dull mason]

Well I missed the first Round..

[woeful compass]

Still there

[terse meadow]

Seriously?
Swarms..?!
Is that all scopely found to pretend Franklin is still of use for 50+…?

[woeful compass]

Got like 3 days for that

[crude phoenix]

whoa.. thats great.. the entire server in one swarm system..

who creates these events ? they should be fired right away

[near bloom]

There’s no Ferengi in the big Borg systems to use Jaylah on 🤣

[dull mason]

Thanks, I've not tuned in Yet

[near bloom]

Swarms is all they got.

[half hornet]

Aren't we supposed to get Neutrino gift today as per news ?

[near bloom]

Best we can do is involuntary neutering.

[dull mason]

Well I've been busy all day and didn't get the chance to do " the other day's battlepass 🤦🏼‍♂️

[near bloom]

Why?

Wasn’t it lostiles?

[dull mason]

RL Aps

I'll never get the broken rods This time 🤦🏼‍♂️

[half hornet]

"Commander's, from today until February 12 at 17:00 UTC, a special gift is waiting for you in your Gifts tab! Make sure to claim it and enjoy". Did you get it today ?

[dull mason]

We also need an extra Battlepass Event , for player's Who are Short of battlepass Event points
@heady moon

[half hornet]

or was it one time ?

[median cliff]

A Swarm event - with max swarm at 50, so whole galaxy in one system - great job scopely

[oblique prism]

what do you expect from arc runners who don't actually play the game, or know the intricacies of the game

[crude phoenix]

looks at G6 cargo space.. yeah they defo not play this game

[oblique prism]

well technically that is not the arc runner that decides the ship stats, but you have further highlighted that the lack of game play knowledge runs deeper than just the arc runners, its also the game design team

I guess the devs, arc runners, etc are smarter than the rest of us, they know how bad the game is, so they don't bother to waste their time playing it lol

[magic gyro]

who u guys use for qtrials below deck....got three spots

Negh

[urban needle]

thc - torres hugh Chapel

[stray pawn]

@queen jolt @heady moon Why oh why do they keep doing this. Level 50 swarms and 60% of server in the same system wasting their time killing a redundant hostile. Of course no one will answer the many posts about it here and in the feedback channels and they wonder why spending is dropping off. As a G6 player this is the most ridiculous use of my game time, indeed it’s a waste of anyone’s time who is Ops 48+

[cold summit]

Maybe everyone needs to be reminded there is at least one more system maybe just wait for everyone to leave that’s what I do

Okay, it seems like swarms are hard

[stray pawn]

Don’t assume I’m in a swarm system. It will be several hours before I will even consider doing this pointless exercise. In fact I’m not even sure I will bother, but the fact no one who designs these events has any common sense is very annoying. It’s not just a G6 problem it affects 60-70% of the games population and is particularly annoying considering swarm Sunday has been retired for most of us

[vagrant vapor]

swarm event, surely it was added by the same sadist that adds cardassian events to bp?

[cold summit]

That’s alright I’m bit annoyed today with someone in my alliance saying well that was easy. That’s course it’s gonna be easy for them because they are level 50.

Everyone leaves the Kardashians alone. I don’t know why I’m quite good research when you’ve got it all done.

[steep aspen]

maybe its just me, but I am having trouble mustering any sympathy for high ops levels this event arc

oh no, 60 swarm, how terrible, lower levels only need to do that once every week

[cold summit]

Oh, I see what you mean. The maximum is 50 well that’s very silly.

[cold summit]

Yeah well a 50 up saying well that was easy and pointless in my alliance when someone has just started to upgrade ops building to 22 it doesn’t sit right with me

[dull mason]

Some Swarm system's should be Auto Hunt one's

[oak basin]

bleh, there need to be more mirror survey systems. like, 53's, 55's. whoever thought it should jump from 50's straight to 58's clearly either does not and will not play the content, or is playing it on a dev account where they just skipped ahead ships and shrugged.

[woeful compass]

there are

[oak basin]

huh, i was expecting a survey system to be off with all the other survey systems

[woeful compass]

or use stfc.space🤷

[solid forge]

Anyone have a ss of taking out 53+ formada’s without using the new ship? The static one.

[cold summit]

To all you autistic or ADHD or AUHD or whatever it is, remember if someone is having a mental breakdown or a meltdown you don’t have to join and you don’t have to take their energy. You just do your thing. Don’t let their energy interrupt yours.s if you’re upset that you can’t help someone that I don’t know what to do about that I have the same problem just leave them. They should be fine. Adults can usually pull themselves back around.

[cold summit]

I’m not sure if the bigger players actually completed the armadas even the lower ones. We’re getting that split from higher players and low players in my alliance and you can see it.

Any more rounds of merges coming? Just tell me if you see anything about one 05.

Don’t forget to tell your lower players they’re doing really really well. Don’t just say well done to the people who get to 50.

[signal pewter]

I don't have a ss but we have done it with my rot and d'dederix as the biggest ships

Was all g5 epics and rare tho

Curiously wait for nuge to finish typing

[hasty tree]

We took out a 57 yesterday without the ship, but we had ops 65, 63, 59 & 49 in it.

[signal pewter]

Yeah wild and them were up doin the 60's but think they needed the ship

[near bloom]

I died of old age waiting

I got a mod to boot them instead

[woeful compass]

boosts?

[near bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/dark-souls-git-gud-gif-16530511115199627055

[hasty tree]

Yeah we had ceritos / defiant, and the small titan buff on for that.

[near bloom]

All that time for that?

[signal pewter]

There are

[near bloom]

The disappointment is immeasurable.

I think from this day forward we need to measure disappointment in a new unit I will call “Relativities”.

[dull mason]

It looks similar to the kids show
Knightmare

[stark fjord]

guess what I got fed pioneer now I can start getting the crozier 🥳🥳

[near bloom]

Dunno, I don’t watch kids shows

[near bloom]

And one day it’ll be more powerful than my Newton!

[humble orbit]

https://tenor.com/view/bluey-bingo-comfort-sad-its-okay-gif-20330220

[solemn plaza]

That seems like a terrible waste of credits.

[stark fjord]

until I get the g5 favor 😝

[near bloom]

Not a kids show

[near bloom]

I’d still call it a waste

[shy hamlet]

I kinda wish I had built a newton

[hasty tree]

can you get one of the other 2 rares? crozier isn't really worth getting

[little violet]

Crozier is not that good

[stark fjord]

is there a reachser for terren credits efficienty

[dull mason]

O' come on..
If you want look at YouTube

[signal pewter]

We've never been a fan of fed battleships

[little violet]

It is a good pve grinder, but not good for much else

[shy hamlet]

fed make good miners

I suppose people build the fed g3/5/6 epics fairly often too

[dull mason]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knightmare_(TV_series)

@near bloom

[signal pewter]

Ents have been good

[little violet]

A was terrible

[signal pewter]

Didn't do the g4 ofc but no complaints about the g3 & g5 ship

[stark fjord]

I got 250/650 for the ent-a and plan to get it eventually

[little violet]

You spend your faction credits very poorly

[shy hamlet]

by the time you get it, you'll be out of g4 parts sourcing

[shy hamlet]

that too

[signal pewter]

Built a hegh'ta and literally never used it

[dull mason]

Wait till they release the
Enterprise -G

LoL 🤣🤣

[little violet]

Problem is he doesn't listen to people who have been there done that before..

[shy hamlet]

the g4 epics are only really worth it on a locked server or for scrapping

[little violet]

Yeah, if G5 is not open

[signal pewter]

They do help with silents for those that aren't leveling fast

But still idk that they're worth the investment to me

[solemn plaza]

Thay doesn't make the ship better. That just makes it cheap trash, but it's still trash.

[little violet]

Sanctus is the best Rare I think. Quv is right there, so either of those are better options

[signal pewter]

I'd agree on sanctus

[little violet]

Sanctus is my pick cause the ent D

[solemn plaza]

Sanctus PvE ship ability is a beautiful thing.

[woeful compass]

deffo

but also locutus FC

sanctus is the best by miles imo

[little violet]

I don't think locutus is good for anything but armadas

🤷

[signal pewter]

Personally I have liked rom ships for grinding since I built pilum

[little violet]

Working on getting a free d'dderix

[signal pewter]

I still use d'dederix for my dailies and mu

[woeful compass]

35% Chance to increase shots for interceptors

or however that works

[little violet]

I use my ent for everything

[woeful compass]

ent is amazing

[signal pewter]

Ent sits at base usually. I do most with rot and d'dederix

[little violet]

Matter of fact.. I am going to make a trip to mirror now lol. Want to test this agony booth

[signal pewter]

It's nice

Very happy with that ft

[little violet]

stuck here with it

[signal pewter]

Tier higher than mine. I started dumping into pvp ones

Mine is at 9 rn

[little violet]

Might try some more trials to get more lvls

[woeful compass]

waiting with that till tournaments run again

[little violet]

My whip not paid bells in a month and half

[signal pewter]

476+ for me. Need to try some more explorer ones

[woeful compass]

thought you'd be maxed by now

[little violet]

AT told me to max this skill and I haven't tried since

[signal pewter]

Yep

[little violet]

Working on this one too before trying

[silver parcel]

haven't put much in that one

[woeful compass]

not really necessary

need the damage reduce one

[little violet]

i haven't done the extra damage either

[signal pewter]

Think I still had tantalus on d'dederix last I tried a new one

[woeful compass]

that damage reduction is more than enough

[little violet]

I had redmatter on my ent

[silver parcel]

just need the damage reduction, pike boosted chen and neelix on the g5 epic trials

[little violet]

Agony both on the 68's... Is amazing...

[signal pewter]

Put agony booth on d'dederix now so might go again 2nite with one

[stark fjord]

well I only get fed ships first as you can see by my name 😝

[signal pewter]

I'm not quite maxed yet

T10 on d'dederix

[silver parcel]

eventually you can pull this off

[signal pewter]

Lol

[little violet]

Mostly farming these for the crit slb

rep per hostile for me with no exo boost 👀

[signal pewter]

I don't see how that worked. Realta should never put out the damage to kill it b4 round limit

[little violet]

Let me make sure that is right lol

[silver parcel]

neelix does the killing

[signal pewter]

Ah

[silver parcel]

janeway's fc skill with boosted chen = immune to damage on the pure energy 4* g5 epics

then neelix kills in the round limit

[signal pewter]

Yeah got that part

[little violet]

so that is per hostile

[little oxide]

So who is the dump 🫏 that creates an event to kill hostile in swarm space? 1 50 system for about 90 percent of the active players on my server…. Brilliant

[little violet]

Use a speed crew and it was easy event

[fading belfry]

lot of warping problems today it seems

[little oxide]

You must not be on a server with as many active as most.. literally ever spawn had 5 ships camping

[signal pewter]

Maybe if the system empties out at some point I'll do it. As of now ima just ignore it

[little violet]

Wrong, my server is one of the most active and was actually locked at one point for popualtion

[signal pewter]

Event reset is always bad for these

[little oxide]

Congrats my point is just stop creating event to kill outdated hostile in systems that can handle the crowds… aka swarm and cardassian

[little violet]

Not saying I liked the event. Just was easy

[oak basin]

my server was like that. we did this old fashioned thing called 'being polite and taking turns'. weird, i know.

[little violet]

Taking turns only works for so long till some 🫏 thinks he is better than everyone else

[humble orbit]

Claim a node, and pvp everyone off of it. The rest of the nodes are covered so respawns should outpace your ability to kill them with one ship. Or share, that's nicer. 😃

[oak basin]

that's when you go do something else and come back later on

[little violet]

https://tenor.com/view/mando-way-mandalorian-star-wars-this-is-the-way-gif-18467372

[steep aspen]

there's a crit slb going on? I don't see one at 39

[oak basin]

it only stays busy for so long, and the nodehoggers finish up and leave, y'know?

[steep aspen]

ah, chaos attack, not crit, that makes sense

there's a crit slb scheduled for later which had me worried

[little violet]

Still might as well be a crit slb

[steep aspen]

for me its a mantis token slb

[little violet]

per 68 is not bad

Will be better on aquatics

[woeful compass]

2Qd per Q armada isnt bad either

[near bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/sidious-gif-18100940

[little violet]

For formation?

[little violet]

Problem I have with doing solos now... IS there going to be another event for them in a few days

[oak basin]

anyone else getting weird green flashes when backing out of something ( like chat, or refinery windows ) into galaxy or system view?

[little violet]

Actually need to try for charged one so we'll see

[oak basin]

it's not gpu artifacting, it's almost animation like

like this

[solid forge]

Yeah we have the players in our alliance. Think we are #30 overall in total power but it’s more how far our reach can be without it. So many are panicking to have a t1 ship there for the buff but I didn’t think it was as useful as a larger ship. Thanks for the ss

[little violet]

Somteimes it like a green line, yes

Doesn't happen all the time for me

[oak basin]

hoping it's a bug and not gonna be the new normal, it's rly annoying

[little violet]

Fix the Pip not showing up on the archive claim 😡

I played around to much and timed out in mirror lol

[steep aspen]

fixing the claim all on the archives, so that it doesn't occasionally eat the transporter patterns, would also be appreciated

[little violet]

Going to try a 64 Krenim 🤔

[restive frost]

S31 game messed up big time...logging on and switching screens take forever

[little violet]

Mines fine on 31 🤷

[hasty tree]

We only have 9 people in our alliance so Formations are less of a PITA for us. Easier to make sure they are all covered with good crews etc....

[little violet]

Good crewing is hard to find sometimes.

[signal cloak]

thanks for the reminder lol

[restive frost]

Scopoley don't like us Canadians I guess

[little violet]

well a 64 absolutely whipped my butt

[earnest raven]

Careful before they give us a tariff!

[main quartz]

Can someone please remind the people creating events that cramming the entire server into a single system to hunt hostiles (swarm, cardassian, borg) is 💩 change the scoring or create more systems.

[long prism]

And as if I was never away @everyoneWe recommence our Tuesday Stream schedule!!!

New wave pass

Event Store Loot check (sub 40s - OMG)

[formal crypt]

Has anyone come up with a way to stop the game from locking up all the time ? Can I go back a version from this last update?

[little violet]

There is no way to go back game versions unless you had the apk from the one before now. Even then... It will probably force you to update

[earnest raven]

Preparing much?

[inner aurora]

No version exists that doesn't lock up all the time.

[tepid lotus]

My game doesn't lock up all the time.

[tepid lotus]

Sooo, you're a beta?

[little violet]

Oh that give intel 😕

[solemn plaza]

We told you this earlier 🤦

[little violet]

I didn't read it 😛

Shuttle bay is the bane of all existence...

[little violet]

Have you tried repairing the client?

[formal crypt]

I put bandaids on this morning. It's self healing.

....

[leaden meadow]

unlock of chaos tech shouldn't be behind RNG this much. I pull the continuum chest daily and I haven't been able to compete in any of the Chaos Tech SLB's

[little violet]

if that doesn't work. Try downloading a program call revo uninstaller free. Wipe the install clean and run the advanced registry cleaner and get a fresh install. Also, would recommend rebooting after cleaning the registry with revo before reinstalling
You can also try running these command in a admin command prompt
sfc /scannow
after that finishes run
dism /online /cleanup-image /scanhealth
dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

By the way above only applies to windows. Not sure if you are on something else like linux or iOS

will look like this. If the scan doesn't find corruption restore will not do much of anything.

THat will be a $49.99 bench fee 😛

[dull mason]

Another game I play, plays With or without updating, you can even play the game without 4+ updates..!!

This Game should be able to do that

[oak basin]

you can dig up apk's for previous versions online easily, and sometimes that will work. the hard cutoff is that the 'old' version has to be from within the same arc. within that range, success will still vary. some updates are mandatory to play, some aren't.

well, i say 'hard cutoff', it hasn't always been a hard cutoff, but generally best to treat it like it will be, anyway, especially by the time we get the middle-of-arc update.

[placid maple]

Out of pure curiosity how high has someone beat a Krem Form? 43 easy, 47 static is a pain! Even with a whale 🐋 it's rough. Cannot imagine anyone hitting the lvl 70 form

[silver parcel]

last time i ran some was killing 60s

[opal meadow]

depends how many Relativity's you have, we are hitting 60s

[placid maple]

All 3 or 1 node? Many with new ship saying it's not helping

What's recommended tier?

[tepid lotus]

So, you're saying it's all relative in terms of how high you can hit?

[opal meadow]

Its no use on the Neutral

[shy hamlet]

how big's the ship your whale throws at the static leg

[oak basin]

did a 57 earlier, was a hard carry, could only reach it with nx-01, lol

[magic gyro]

where do we get encrypted intelligence loot from?

[placid maple]

First time a 2b one, we did it after they sent 3b

[oak basin]

could've been a 60 but the carrying relativity couldn't reach the 60's

[shy hamlet]

rift it

[magic gyro]

We did 70's and u need mostly g6 epics and lock two rels in top legs

[placid maple]

Apparently after round 3 static hits very hard

[magic gyro]

lorcas fist and titan and cheetos buffs help also

[shy hamlet]

yeah, but I'd imagine a g5 epic should kill the 47 r1-2

[oak basin]

i always forget rifts are a thing, evi gets treated like a disco that can actually hit g4 miners, lol

[muted cape]

Disco 😄 mine would of went scrapyard if it could, Evi is Disco 2.0 alot stronger for missions and just alot higher warp currently on 599 with boosts only T8

[placid maple]

Just with 1 new ship 😶

[shy hamlet]

yeah, only one per leg, two total

[magic gyro]

you only need to lock one rel in each top leg with respecte exo... wave on left bolt on right. bottom is STRICTLY POWER (BIGGEST SHIPS) DO NOT LOCK A REL BELOW.

it takes alot of coordination.. people liketo start armadas and log off for 10 min

[shy hamlet]

it's bad at killing them, so like tribble says just the one in charged & static to disable the abilities.

[magic gyro]

we also had some players max rel at 450 mil power

🤷‍♂️

[wanton laurel]

Did a 53 static with one rel and one 800k Sanctus

[manic python]

Any news on when next Alliance Tournament will be held?

[shy hamlet]

not that I've seen

[opal meadow]

Next week is my guess

[heavy ermine]

Given Arena player numbers this last run, can we get an alternative source of Terran currencies?

Perhaps just a comp chest

It seems once the ship unlocks people lose interest

[opal meadow]

Its as much fun as Starbase assaults

[dull mason]

They should do a survey on when player's actually hit Alli starbases
I bet it'll be a very short list 🤣🤣

Starbases should have been a
One stop shop for Alliance resources, speedups, and other things

[shy hamlet]

I can't hit starbases or I would

my starbase has been bugged out entirely for several months now

[near bloom]

I hit star bases

😬

Hands up if you’re surprised

[opal meadow]

i'd be surprised if it were only you 🤣

[muted cape]

Better survey would be “how many players no what a star base is” 🤣

[near bloom]

Not CD, hers is broke.

[muted cape]

Cannot even remember last time I saw any ASB in any system

[little violet]

they only give buff to cardassians... The back research is the only thing that has any value lol

[muted cape]

they have TC efficiencies and Armada loot boosts, although times to max that research your territory tree probably maxed 😄

[oak basin]

they could've tossed in something like STO's 'fleet ships', too, or fleet refits or something

[placid maple]

You never no they might one day make Cards good for G6....

With an expansion to starbase tree

[snow remnant]

For the Director of War - (Krenim Formation) - SLB is anyone else not getting the extra singular points for defeating them? On my slb i see its working for others but i'm still 20000 flat even though ive defeated all 7 that i was in. Im just curious cause if it comes down to a tie breaker i will lose cause of the extra singular points i didn't get

[opal meadow]

Give a lot more than that

[muted cape]

or caards may follow path of Doomsday worms 😄

[near bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/ready-laughing-hysterically-now-comes-the-part-throw-our-head-back-laugh-gif-16327206

[bold field]

Just going to say whoever thought up this idea of needing two of the new ships in order to do the new formations needs to be hog tied, honeyed and feathered in the middle of the academy square... I swear we spend half our game time now just trying to organize times for people to be on

[opal meadow]

Depends what level

New promocode "Cadet"

[muted cape]

yeh ive done quiet a few, only got 2 extra points 😐 ?

[bold field]

liar

[placid maple]

Give it awhile the Krem forms will be as useless as normal forms.

[timber valve]

And making sure the relativity gets starred because it gets bumped so easily.

[boreal plover]

oh wow Turas requires a bunch of researches

[snow remnant]

yeah idk whats the deal with it cause i see some people its working fine with an extra 27 points but then you got others that have a 10000 flat number which should be 10001 (assuming they beat it)

[muted cape]

Rank 1 on mine has 80K points + 13 extra

[boreal plover]

as a low level player, should i bother ranking up ships?

(Ops 11 currently)

[snow remnant]

its just frustating since mine isnt working and because of that im 7 spots lower and that make me get less loot compared to if it was actually scoring correctly

[boreal plover]

also what is this "g6" they keep talking about on ItsLewb's stream...

[muted cape]

Grade 6, ops 61-70

[boreal plover]

ah gotcha. so like Grade 1 = 1-10, 2 = 11-20, etc?

[muted cape]

G2 ships max them makes no difference, once you get ones requiring G3 mats. its a choice between Ops or Ship power, you mostly only want to focus on Faction ships only also your first would be ops 26 and first G3 is ops 17. So only up theirs if required

[muted cape]

yeh

[oak basin]

oh hey it seems to be lag o'clock

[muted cape]

additionally min best tier is 4/5 maybe 6

[snow remnant]

@muted cape Do you remember if that tie breaker scoring was there yesterday? I think it was but i think it wasn't working if it was since my alliance ran them yesterday and all our scores are a flat score

[muted cape]

cannot rem, but i did many yesterday and a few today so being only 2 makes no sense? + plus many alliance mates in the same ones as me have about 6-17 extra 🤔

[slow mica]

I’m guessing we can’t reach tier 12 on the FTs stuff yet ?

[muted cape]

no need 5* dont exist maxing all 1-4* gets you to T11 only

[snow remnant]

interesting maybe it started working after either reset? since we finished doing them at 10pm est yesterday

[shy hamlet]

there's a point where even max assessment rank stops you, yes

[whole robin]

Liking my new Q trial crew

[shy hamlet]

seems unlikely to be better than PMC or PMT

[minor furnace]

@n0rrecviz That is something I was considering for a while with Janeway FC. I will give it a try

[shy hamlet]

Janeway makes the better of Chen or T'laan even better though

[slow isle]

https://tenor.com/view/ugh-gross-no-dislike-yuck-gif-3398424

[minor furnace]

Agreed. I couldn't have pushed far without chen/ttlan/cath

[slow isle]

Swarm was annoying already, but Doomsday gonna be worse

[thorn narwhal]

Mere mortals level 🤣

[thorn narwhal]

And Waves and Formations on the same day....

[cold sand]

<@&509690795536941056> What happens....We shall see

This happened....Neither went off

[heady moon]

the formada failed?

[boreal plover]

i wish the combat was a little more involved. i mean a modern iphone could run STO 😄 😛

[cold sand]

yup. Neither armada went off.

[heady moon]

Hm. Can you ping support and see if they can replace the directives?

[cold sand]

I'll tell the hosts to yeah

[little violet]

3 days from now support will give a directive back when it is meaningless

[steep aspen]

any word yet about the missing events and lack of currency for below 40 ops?

[heady moon]

NO updates yet, but I've been looking into it.

[boreal plover]

maybe i'm not a big enough strek nerd.. but this purple region with the equals sign looking symbol that is up and down?

whose space is that lol

[oak basin]

this? dominion space

or this one? that's exchange space. afaik they're not a 'faction' in any of the shows or movies, but a scopely invention

[boreal plover]

yeah this one

hands brand desync lol

[drifting arch]

This one

[thorn narwhal]

Once again Scopely wildly over estimates the level of emotional investment in the game. Talked to countless many on the verge of walking away.

[little violet]

because of....?\

[thorn narwhal]

Everything....just had enough. All good things and that...

[little violet]

Nothing scopely could do would change their mind from that description

[wicked moth]

Hey the new daily research event stops giving cosmic particles at ops 65???

[shy hamlet]

yup. AT hates it too

[little violet]

Maybe I won't speed up my ops the 🤣

Does it start giving rare hazard or something?

[silver parcel]

https://tenor.com/view/noooo-no-scream-screaming-shout-gif-26174102

no

[little violet]

So garbage

[shy hamlet]

at least you still get the away teams stuff

for all your g4 mining needs

[little violet]

I have so much raw I could finish my last skin an research already lol

[silver parcel]

reminds me, got one more point in the research to do

[little violet]

I did these last weekend 😄

[silver parcel]

okay, got all the refits and research done, now the raw will just be used for the AT exo

[little violet]

haven't really even tried to mess with mine

[silver parcel]

still need the damn cosmic particles though

[little violet]

what was their excuse for removing it and not adding rare hazard in atleast

[silver parcel]

they never gave a reason

and they've been getting weekly pings about it

[little violet]

This building is so lame.

[silver parcel]

don't neglect it

i need it to 66

[little violet]

that is why I am doing it now

[silver parcel]

for 66 r&d

for 66 ops

[little violet]

I looked at academy 66 and I was like I knew they would ask for tht 💩 since you get a new ship

Will be 65 next month

maybe.. Let me know if they fix the cosmic particles 🤣

I still have a long time to go for credits for a rare G6 ship lol

Do you have to have the hangar 66 for the shipyard?

[silver parcel]

no

[little violet]

Nope so I am doing well

[silver parcel]

r&d 66, academy 66, shuttlebay 66,

[little violet]

Soon tho I know they are going to start asking for the astronautic and defense tch buildings tho

Also the fricking Dil/refinery

[silver parcel]

66 i'll have the titan, velox and 2 bigger cubes

eventually

[little violet]

Why the titan?

[silver parcel]

because it's there

[little violet]

🤣

Just doing the velox and eventually at 70 the ent e

[silver parcel]

need 150 bps for both

[little violet]

I will probably have the bps free from the DTI faction store by then

[silver parcel]

need 3 more tiers for that box to be useful

kicking myself, got akira both pulls so far

[cold summit]

I like the Titan, cause I’m not good at waves and if I take a Titan, I’m useful. I mean, my baby one is not at the moment.

[little violet]

Save the materials for these 3 tiers and get meaningful pulls

First pull was a Negh' Var

Titan is not a support ship, the titan-A is

[silver parcel]

negh'var would be useful just to build and do the first point in the research, but my klingon is perpetually 15b

this titan

was the one being referenced

[little violet]

Yeah, I think he was talking about the Titan-A

[solemn plaza]

Why does the Romulan faction messages give less credits than the Federation at the same rep?

[little violet]

same for me

[silver parcel]

revered are both 6500 for me

but i got stuck with the locked bug

[little violet]

You have the favor then

[little violet]

Guess I am lucky then

[little violet]

You have this AT?

[silver parcel]

no, but gonna get it when i can

[solemn plaza]

Yikes that's expensive

[little violet]

I could use your currency

[cold summit]

Wouldn’t it be nice if you could get to a certain level and give stuff to lower players?

[little violet]

I missed a lot of stuff at the beginnging of the last arc. Was having some issues and barely did my dailies

[solemn plaza]

This is my admiral after buying the stuff unlocked at chief detective.

[solemn plaza]

I can't afford anything I'm a broke boi 🤣

[little violet]

I'm broke too..

[brave ore]

14" of snow fell today.... so OliverDJz and I got a snow day! What did we do?

we gamed of course. well. he gamed. i worked. BUT now it's play time! Let's fiddle.

https://youtube.com/live/e-Gg3dhggyc?feature=share
https://www.twitch.tv/ultimatdjz

[solemn plaza]

I'm not quite that broke

[little violet]

I bought some favors

[solemn plaza]

I'll upgrade myself from broke to poor.

You sir be broke

[little violet]

I have credits for a few days

I'll be able to get a double on both soon I think

[dull mason]

It's a good looking Ship

[solemn plaza]

If I scrap all my Jellyfish does the mat spend slb to get it come back?

[silver parcel]

no

[dull mason]

Titan -A should have been a killer

[solemn plaza]

Well that sucks

Need more Jelly

[dull mason]

You might as well keep the OG jelly.
2nd jelly Alliance store or Armada crates

[solemn plaza]

I have 4..they're all getting trashed.

[dull mason]

O'Dear you have been busy,
But also a lot of Ress/mat's

[solemn plaza]

Only issue was rare parts. But that's no longer a problem.

[little violet]

I've scrapped three ISS Jellyfish so far🤣

[silver parcel]

just finished scrapping one and put another on the scrapper

[dull mason]

Gulp

[little violet]

Not scrapping another because I don't wanna use the lat on xp 🤣

[solemn plaza]

I'll be maxing 3 Jelly in 3 days time and then they'll all be scrapped asap

I'm just short 1.8mill Fed credits to buy all the Ents I need.

[little violet]

THey drop a lot tho so should be easy

[cold summit]

So apparently, I finished beating the swarms. I was finding the Borg probes harder and only halfway there.

[bright maple]

Is there a third formation warfare sms tomorrow?

[wet anchor]

I think I’ve scrapped 8 jellies. At least 8, maybe 9. Third ent A scrapping now 😛

[dull mason]

I don't have that amount
I have 205,2k

[little violet]

Sounds about right for G4

Big increases for G5+

[shy hamlet]

2.7m fed is also what I have, though I'm gonna be fresh out soon enough

[little violet]

and I just bought the Selkie bps

[signal pewter]

Built 3 couple weeks ago when I went 61. They're so slow

[little violet]

I think they are great

[iron steeple]

Can we get a CLAIM ALL button here. <@&509690795536941056> Please and Thank You!!! The slider made it better, but it's still clunky.

[signal pewter]

Warp range only good part

[little violet]

What .. I mine G6 at 125k an hr and 250k in TC in like 40 secs for G5

[wicked moth]

That sounds about right if you've been lucky with JF shards after struggling to finish your first....four years ago? Which we all are, of course. 🤣

[signal pewter]

G6 in tc?

[little violet]

Also iso one faster than a meridian

[little violet]

I said g5

[signal pewter]

I don't mine iso

[little violet]

Me either anymore lol

[signal pewter]

What tier ur selkie?

[little violet]

4

[wet anchor]

Heh. First one was three or so years ago yeah

[wicked moth]

Rub Hugh's implant and wish iso mining away.

[wet anchor]

It’s not the selkie that’s slow, it’s g6 that’s slow.

[wicked moth]

....his other implant.

[little violet]

Do you wear goggles 🤣

[signal pewter]

My highest currently is t3. Need more parts to go higher. Other 2 are still t1

[wet anchor]

The speed doesn’t get dramatically better.

[signal pewter]

Still faction space is around 34k per hr

[little violet]

Key is mining in hazard zones

[wet anchor]

And silent space

[signal pewter]

Silent about 80k

[signal pewter]

Haven't went hazard. Need more resistance research at 62

[little violet]

Yeah can't get enough till 63

[wet anchor]

Without the prime you need to be 63 to have enough to survive the first level hazard

[signal pewter]

No primes

[little violet]

Me neither

[signal pewter]

Thanks to this arc I'm f2p now

[signal pewter]

So will be slow moving forward but not giving scopely another dime

[signal pewter]

62 cooking just ain't finished it yet

In no hurry

[little violet]

Me neither

[signal pewter]

I sped some buildings to get selkie built for dailies. Other than that haven't used any speedups for anything

[dull mason]

Money 🤑👆🏼

[little violet]

G5 research is so cheap to me now 🤣

[signal pewter]

Yeah idc about that

[little violet]

To me is it lol

[shy hamlet]

wait, does hazard resistance just work as "if you have more resistance than the hazard has hazard, you ignore it"?

[signal pewter]

Yeah

[shy hamlet]

wild

[little violet]

Yeah, if you have 101% in a 100 it does no damage to your ship

[shy hamlet]

that's nice to know

[signal pewter]

Up to %300 in systems that I've seen

[little violet]

not easy research to get...\

Matter of fact.. only my miners are over 100% and my G6 uncommons have over 100 in certain zones

[signal pewter]

Not many have gotten to g6 f2p. I'd say no one on my server. Hasn't been open long enough

[little violet]

I might be the only G6 player with 6 docks 🤣

[signal pewter]

Don't really need more. Only use I've found for 7th really is base defense

[little violet]

Yep

[signal pewter]

Was never interested in 8th dock

[shy hamlet]

I'm sure Rozell only has 6, seeing as how he f2p'd 70 and all that lol

[little violet]

Only way I was get G or H is if they are free

[shy hamlet]

but yeah, in g4 I appreciated all 8, but now it's much less useful

[little violet]

That guy is the only f2p in the vip discord 🤣

According to him. Scopely may disagree 🤣

[wet anchor]

There’s a few six dockers now in g6. I don’t even use all 6 most of the time.

[shy hamlet]

now that there's no iso to mine, no data to mine, only one grade of material that's relevant and even that basically just for dailies, and solos don't take buffs

[wet anchor]

Just come to g6 and you’ll be buffing your solos 😛

[signal pewter]

I do buffs for poly solos

[shy hamlet]

only if my buff ships reach there lol

[shy hamlet]

Don't have one of those

my buff ships have to ghrush the 58 krenim system last I checked

[wet anchor]

Relocate mostly though Cerritos and titan get research to get to early g6 systems

[signal pewter]

I don't buff g6 solos. Haven't found a need yet I do those one ship with loot for what I can reach

[little violet]

bout time for this particle to be released...

[signal pewter]

No

Oh the particles sure. Won't use it for that tho

[little violet]

I would ...

[signal pewter]

Nx just relo

[shy hamlet]

I would be all over that

[signal pewter]

Get plenty from any grinds u do now

[little violet]

I wanna be able to summon to the lvl 70 system.. My ent can farm all way to 69

[silver parcel]

i bought the cheap discovery warp primes

need the rest

[shy hamlet]

I'm not paying extra to use a ship I already own lol

[little violet]

Me neither.. Especially since the other warp extension was free..

[silver parcel]

they need to make the particles f2p, and they need to extend the defiant warp range like for the talios, voyager, cerritos, titan and monaveen

[signal pewter]

Those are wanted in alliance tournaments at least but I'd use on something different 1st personally

[silver parcel]

hell the discovery should've been like the other ships but they realized they could score a buck with it

[signal pewter]

Valor particles or whatever they're called

[little violet]

There is a lot of good research for those particles

THis research is useless now and so it the mantis sting if you have lorca

[shy hamlet]

ah yeah nice

[signal pewter]

Most have lorca by now this doesn't do much anymore

[wet anchor]

You can do the epics unbuffed?

[shy hamlet]

i purchased prime station delay t1 when it came out to be able to get into whales packing kras. ah well. it worked for a year or so

[signal pewter]

Haven't tried an epic yet.

[shy hamlet]

that's about as long as any purchase remains relevant in this game anyhow lol

[silver parcel]

it's still useful

the delay prime

[wet anchor]

I can do uc and rare but last time I tried unbuffed epic just barely lost 😦

[signal pewter]

Not sure but don't believe i can reach any yet

[shy hamlet]

does lorca stop Rom or just that prime?

[wet anchor]

With grush

[shy hamlet]

cause if he stops Rom too, than you kinda need that prime to have a chance vs Lorca

[wet anchor]

Tolra Gwen grush or 5 miles grush or eventually tolra 5 grush

[signal pewter]

Lorca and kras

[shy hamlet]

I only ask because I've hit bases where I don't get the free PSD round, but haven't noticed not getting Rom's free round (unless they have Kras when it's Kras's fault)

[little violet]

Kras will cancel him too

[signal pewter]

Yeah I tried an empty 64 with my sanctus and rom and got one shot

[shy hamlet]

thanks, that's good to know.

hmm

[signal pewter]

Someone else cracked it and I couldn't re open it we had to get another g6 player to re open for us

[shy hamlet]

I suppose probably most people wouldn't spend lorca skill points on that ability.

the rest of Lorca is pretty sweet

[signal pewter]

Fighting in incursions it's really helpful

[shy hamlet]

oh for sure, I beelined for it as my first Lorca skills

not in the least because I unlocked Lorca 30 minutes into an incursion

[little violet]

I made it a point for incursions recently. All I do is get lorca skill points from incursions loot now lol

[signal pewter]

Hard to stay unshielded long enough to defend or raid when ur getting cracked each time ur shield drops

[signal pewter]

Vindicator helps also.

Only use ill get from that thing for the foreseeable future

[little violet]

Vindicator?

[shy hamlet]

iirc refinery pays lorca and sloan skill points

[silver parcel]

still kind of mad i grabbed the half pack for lorca and then they put him on the incursion store

[shy hamlet]

among other things

[silver parcel]

and that was the incursion we won

[signal pewter]

^

[shy hamlet]

I'm mad our biggest whale got raided twice the incursion before I got lorca

[little violet]

I haven't bought any of his credits lol

[shy hamlet]

if he didn't get raided the second time I'd have unlocked Lorca that incursion

[little violet]

I thought about it a lot.. Till I see him in incursions 😄

[signal pewter]

Get them daily from pulls. Not a lot at low tier ofc but sloan is expensive from waves

[little violet]

Free sloan and Lorca daily. I actually bought the extra pull for that refinery

[silver parcel]

still debating getting that

[shy hamlet]

my sloan is terrible; i can't wait to get more skill points for him without having to do waves

and of course now I'm regretting the FT efficiency

[signal pewter]

Naw still good use of dolamide I think

[shy hamlet]

Maxed the tier-up catalysts efficiency skill and now it's protomatter I'm out of

nah, the sloan skill

[signal pewter]

Oh yeah I got the %25 from dolamide pulls

[shy hamlet]

ohh, FC efficiency is great, yeah. that'll be either next or second in line once I finish the starship dolamite efficiencies

[silver parcel]

out of proto, low on catalyst

[shy hamlet]

max your arena favors and the second one will be solved

[silver parcel]

low because i just spent like 30k

lol

and out of proto because the tantalus field doesn't want to level
