[slender shuttle]

With all the event store items that are actually good being limited this arc, it's just really disappointing because this had potential to actually be a super fun event to end the arc with.

[neon badge]

This event store looks like a paper goods isle when covid hit in 2020 - empty

[full notch]

Is it just me? Or is this months ARC blah? Nothing grabbing my attention to play, I'm just doing dailies and a quick run at event. If the payoff isn't worth the effort, I skip it 😏

[hallow ember]

More than blah, it's unplayable by some ops levels. "Go kill these ships which your ships can't scratch" "Go grind these mats which only drop 1-2 per kill and score tens of thousands of points worth"

[velvet stone]

Is this missing for everyone?

[hallow ember]

You only get into that event if you scored in the top 25 in one of the previous 3

[velvet stone]

Sad information...

[fiery compass]

it's in the picture you posted

[velvet stone]

You're right, just seen it

[opal mantle]

I’ve lost track what scores in the Armada Hunter event? Is it just FKR?

[dreamy patio]

anything that uses a regular rare or epic directive, like the scorecard says

[crimson shell]

FKR only which I think ( not tested but worked last event ) includes Klingon Burials ( Epic Mycelium armadas / Disco armadas )

[thick robin]

I can understand complaining... but come on man.

Winning xalb is 36000 event store loot. Thats over 3000 teir up catalyst. That isnt "measely" at all.

[serene forum]

that allows me to finally unlock tucker.

[warped ginkgo]

Alright finally hopped online and I see a bunch of exchange armadas, did they finally fix their spawn? Or is my server just not doing them o.o

[dreamy patio]

spawn rate increase with the patch

[grizzled mulch]

Unless you maxed them w/ 150k. Translate it into epic shards: Top place is 6 epic officer shards. So yes, measly.

[thick robin]

Epic shards is ALWAYS a low return investment.

Get syndicate xp or rare officer shards

[grizzled mulch]

Still measly. 18 rare officers shards for Top spot

20k SyndXP

Measly

[thick robin]

Thats pretty dam good for a single alb

[grizzled mulch]

Not really. XALB too. Rewards just aren’t good

[thick robin]

Then dont do it.

36k event store loot not being worth means you essentially dont think anything is worth and you just want to complain about everything

[grizzled mulch]

That’s literally the point you were replying to by trying to argue the rewards weren’t measly. The rewards suck. Not worth fighting for first for something like that

[thick robin]

Every single person in your alliance get those rewards. If you have 100 ppl that 1800 officer shards you bring to your team

[grizzled mulch]

Now, granted, it goes across the alliance, so it’s good in that sense. A full alliance that all worked together could do pretty well

Right. We agree on that

Problem is that it’s Xindi so requires spending

[thick robin]

They arent measely. Im not saying they are fall over backwards with an erection causing a heart attack wbile drooling at the mouth good.... but they arent measely

[grizzled mulch]

Go back to other ALB’s where officers or mats were offered and compare. “Measly” is absolutely the right description.

[thick robin]

Oh yea????

$0 dollars spent

[grizzled mulch]

So you all got first on one call per G5 alliance member. You_sure_ no one spent? Also, we’re 9h in. Just wait

[thick robin]

I am 100% sure that every single point i scored was a result of stuff that i had no need for amd did not spend on

[grizzled mulch]

The points you scored were only related to spending the currency from the new armadas. Only G5 players (afaik) get the directives free. I didn’t say you had to spend, just that this event is won by spenders.

[thick robin]

I spent 0 new currency

[grizzled mulch]

Then you haven’t contributed

PS You might not get rewards if you haven’t scored. Not sure how they do ALB’s these days

[thick robin]

Dude... look at the ss i posted. Then go look at the scoring mechanics.

Then stop talking out your rear

Ive scored 887 million points 🤣

[grizzled mulch]

Oh snap. Dude. My bad. I thought it was only spending the new currency.

OK, that’s better than I thought.

[thick robin]

If it was only spending new currency then my outlook on it would be dimmer. But the total end result rewards i still wouldnt call measely 🤣

[grizzled mulch]

Well, still measly, lol, but sure, that’s a lot better than what I thought. We’re still looking at far less than we’ e gotten from other ALB’s, but that’s been a trend for 6 mos now

[thick robin]

In that case maybe id call it "poor"

[grizzled mulch]

OK, that’s fair.

https://tenor.com/view/ill-allow-it-gif-9328164

[split tree]

What do we do with phlox mission if we couldn't get it finished and couldn't refine everything gathered? 4/6 done and the mission is just there blank and I can't see how to complete mission now

[thick robin]

But with unc armada loot counting... id rate it a solid "meh, ok ill do it... the lil guys could use the loot"

[grizzled mulch]

Yeah. Agree, esp with UC counting. You win 😄

[thick robin]

So much negativity lately (most of it legitimate) that ppl shltting on middle of road events. Folks need to look at things logically and complain about things that need complaining about.

When real complaints are drown out by general moaning about mid stuff, creates too much noise.

We all know scopely is near incapable of receiving and acting on feedback.... no need to muddle the important complaints

[ripe jungle]

36k event loot is pretty good in general for an alliance leaderboard. Even slb’s don’t pay out more than that.

[narrow violet]

An ALB sure but it’s not an ALB… it’s a cross server ALB 36K is pretty lame should be at least 50K

[next sparrow]

Slbs used to pay out 36k for first back in the good Ole days too

[narrow violet]

😥 game was fun back then 😂

🤔 also what’s with the Cross ALB, hard enough as it is beating the Alliances in your own server 😬. Plus didn’t they say they’re doing new leaderboards with % what happened to that?

[next sparrow]

With %? I'm curious what does that mean/entail?

[narrow violet]

Mid month patch notes. #⭐-official-announcements message says no more ranked leaderboards just % leaderboards

It’s been a few SLB/ALB since this update yet no sign of them

Correct me if I’m wrong or just super confused 😂

[dreamy patio]

Not implemented yet as far as I know

[bold venture]

Does not say "no more" standard leaderboards. Simply notes the addition of a new type.

[fiery compass]

i would take that as the implementation now works, and it's waiting for an event that uses them

[bold venture]

Ty for pointing that out though, I had completely overlooked that note. Very neat, kind of excited for that!

[narrow violet]

Knowing scopley it could mean anything 😂

I think 🤔 % is basically to give the players that draw the same rewards. As some events it’s usally first come first serve and a player with same score gets better rewards, whilst another gets low rewards even though same score

[ripe jungle]

Only some do, there was one this month that paid out 36k iirc, though most have been 24k.

[next sparrow]

I'm talking about a year ago+ every slb paid out better than now

[warped ginkgo]

I'm just holding out hope for one of these to drop. Prob will be 48k this time though 😆

[ripe jungle]

Oh yeah December had some really crazy slb’s towards the end

That one could have doubled your event store haul 😆

[warped ginkgo]

Was my first eoa store so I guess the bar was set high for me 😅

But I see it isn't normal bc I've got like 2/3rds of what I got last time, still hoping for the above xslb 🙏

[obtuse linden]

Whats the go with only prizes for top 4 in jelly event?

[fiery compass]

that's normal for jelly pursuit on an old server; I think newer ones have it worse somehow

[dreamy patio]

yes.....

all or nothing

lol

remember seeing it on the calendar twice and we never got it, then on the third time, we got a 1st gets everything, rest get some rss.

by that point i was like 75 shards in

from armada pulls

[fiery compass]

we have full/full/half/quarter, I believe

not that I ever tried at it

usually the winners are ops 45+ at which point eh

[stable crow]

I've never seen anything other than full unlock for 1st place, tiny amounts of refined G3 for 2nd and 3rd. (less than 0.2% of what you'd have to spend to win)

[dreamy patio]

yup, that's what we got

Not sure if it's changed, have had the jelly since 39

[fiery compass]

like i said, i believe it's server age that does it. S36 - where i'm at - is 4 or so years old i think?

[dreamy patio]

would've been nice to have that when i needed it

[fiery compass]

i, uh, slacked

[dreamy patio]

rofl

[fiery compass]

hmm. i should probably finish that tonight in case i need to have it before jelly brawl pops to get it

[proven pendant]

Jelly gets out classed way to fast to even bother unless you just want it bad enough

[fiery compass]

i've just gotten mine via armada chests for jelly brawl's free stuff

the pursuit is imo a complete waste

[proven pendant]

Yea same here got mine completely free....sadly defiant and Talios had it stacked long before then and then along came Voyager to put it to rest lol

[fiery compass]

sounds about right

i mean at this point i have a pilum that trounces it; heck my ent is bigger than my jelly

[proven pendant]

My ENT is at par with Jelly I think but it's maxed and jelly has like 4 tiers left

[fiery compass]

yeah i'm not taking the jelly past t2 i think

max ent is fun

[proven pendant]

Sorry 7 tiers left so it will outshine ENT by A LOT if I wanna take it there

Oh wait you mean Ent-D? I meant g3 epic Ent I don't have Ent-D yet

[fiery compass]

I meant g3 epic

it does good things with Janeway+ morale in armadas

[proven pendant]

Oh when you said you had a Pilum I just assumed....weird how my Jelly still has 7 tiers left vs maxed ENT....I thought they were neck and neck...maybe jelly is worth taking to T12, who knows

[dreamy patio]

it's not that strong

[proven pendant]

Outshines my current Kelvin by double and probably not ops locked to get there either

[fiery compass]

there's also a ton of research and building levels he has you can't currently have

[dreamy patio]

this is at 59

this is just a tier 9 kelvin

[proven pendant]

So probably 15mil less at 46 id say

[dreamy patio]

only reason the jelly is maxed out is because i'd build a part for a ship upgrade slb

[proven pendant]

Can I max it at 46 I wonder

[dreamy patio]

could, but it'd be a waste

[fiery compass]

i wouldn't but you can

[dreamy patio]

you'd get more out of a valdore

[proven pendant]

Can you even scrap it yet? I know ENT requires 50

[fiery compass]

especially a korinar at 46

i think it scraps at 43 or something dumb

[dreamy patio]

164k explorer parts

put more into it than getting back

would be nice if it gave 5* materials

aside from the commons

[proven pendant]

Yea I think I'd rather continue with Voyager lol

[dreamy patio]

this is a tier 9 one and the general upgrades on it

parts would go better on this

or a korinar as collateral said

g4us i stopped as soon as they needed rares

[proven pendant]

Yea my Kelvin is on rares now but I'm still 250 BPs from Newton

[normal oar]

Just unlocked Q trials. Can someone explain the forbidden tech sms event?

[dreamy patio]

you gain points for tiering and leveling your FT

[normal oar]

Meaning on the ships?

[dreamy patio]

upgrading or tiering any of these

[normal oar]

Ok, thanks y’all. I don’t have the gear to upgrade - I just built the building moments ago. Thanks for the help

[manic lion]

The iss jelly is only worth maxing if you have the 2 primes at t7 or better for parts and materials efficiency as then you can get out more then you put into it but again only worth doing really from 46 plus

[ruby garnet]

57.5k...lot of BP points for a normal last 3 days to make up...

[minor idol]

Any reason solo rare and epic directives aren't counting towards the event, even though in the event information it doesn't list say what kind of armada....

[desert laurel]

So I'd expect two domination events and a Unity. We know what they need, just have to see what pops up in a few hours to see if they're still on target.

[narrow quartz]

Could be an ATA event.

[misty ruin]

Dear Sweet Baby Jesus in swaddling cloth, please help those who create the events be guided by not silly duuumb decisions and make today’s event even somewhat entertaining, interesting and enjoyable.

[thick robin]

Oh you poor naive soul

[fierce cosmos]

And not scoring... Or is it supposed to be only 40+ hostiles, screwing the upper 30s lower 40s outta two events?

[eager field]

how soon is soon?

[desert laurel]

The event store exchanges have decay timers listed on them in red.

[void raft]

@desert laurel, you want to let them know we’re so not on target with BP heroic milestones? 😅

[desert laurel]

Already did.

[void raft]

Many thanks!

[proud wing]

Most likely yes, only real Xindi count in events, practice Xindi are for missions apparently

[fierce cosmos]

That blows. At least with collecting the scrap it's still possible at lower levels, just more of a grind.

[desert laurel]

The overflow's been adjusted.

[fiery compass]

woah sweet so it has

looks like 32.5k points needed now which is most combinations to get there. glad to hear it.

[void raft]

Sweet, thanks for staying on top of this 👍

[brave scarab]

They really need to start specifying this stuff in the descriptions. Another event failure.

[forest yoke]

This arc there aren’t enough events (incl ticketed events) to unlock hoshi right?

[bronze star]

It's a shame they haven't mentioned any level in Xindi event description 😡

[hybrid relic]

Anone else have issues with scoring in the Bount 2 event....killing xindi??

[fiery compass]

need to kill L40+ xindi to score

[cinder geyser]

That sucks, I can’t even destroy the 40+ Xindi, even boosted I die every time

[hybrid relic]

Gotcha....thanks:)

Thanks again Scopley for an event that most folks can't score

[misty ruin]

When will then be now? We passed then, when? Just now,

[light vessel]

Another sms can't finish cause u screw us over...

[fierce cosmos]

Not only the sms, but the meta sms as well.

[winged cove]

I am just upset that they did not say the xindi had to be 40+

[arctic knoll]

I literally found out with an exo I could get one 40 per hull, today doubling up I found I can get 2 per hull... As an ops 41 getting 40 isn't worth it

[narrow violet]

What’s ops are you? And crew used.

[arctic knoll]

I just found I can get them with my Augur tier 8 (just need to upgrade the cargo bay) Janeway, Cath, Tlaan with Paris below...exos help too

[fickle imp]

wtf happened to the event store paayouts this month

[shy surge]

The event store is where they reduced quantity 🫤

[fickle imp]

ah i see thanks

the only fix is $100

[shy surge]

Except there is very little worth buying. So few options in the event store

[fickle imp]

your not wrong but it would of been nice to get a bit of event currency

[steady scaffold]

This missing NX bps is not very nice from scopely. They should provide at least half bp pack for money.

[neat plover]

What's the comp chest for anyone know?

[dull belfry]

for this arc sucking.

[ruby garnet]

Thanks for staying on top of it

[marsh kiln]

6k event store currency XD

[fickle imp]

aye thats still 10% of the total theyve given us

[marsh kiln]

that's not even 5% of what I aquired over this arc

[proud wing]

We think for the Treasury rod thing

[silver current]

Why doesn’t the 35 Xindi score?

🦗

[fiery compass]

#🌌-galaxy-chat message

[jaunty saffron]

Because the event description isn't clear in the slightest. Xindi hostiles in lvl 34 systems apparently aren't actually xindi hostiles, even thoigh they are, they have to have the 'xindi' tag, which are found in lvl40+ systems.

[misty ruin]

Is there a domination event tomorrow?

[proud wing]

Xindi scouts are "neutral", compared to Xindi-Reptilian and Xindi-Aquatic for the others

[misty ruin]

Gain power! Lol

[proud wing]

I'm guessing something 17.5k and something 15k, so Away Teams as we had Unity this week and not sure

Domination would pair with Mining, which we also had this week

[sharp scroll]

let me guess, the bounty event you have to kill 40+ hostiles

[cunning radish]

Correct

[inland mural]

Am I seeing correctly, I'm going to be short event though I've done base battle pass event?

[fiery compass]

two days, 32.5k points to go, should be good

[inland mural]

@fiery compass I'm hoping so, never missed an event I've not left beforehand, but this seems closer than usual 😬🤔

[proven pendant]

This event, for me, has been the best event I've ever had in 2years. Unlocked 2 different ships, 3 different epic/rare officers, tons of mats/resources etc I could keep going and by the end of it I will be up more Newton BPs and 1 more rare officer

[inland mural]

@proven pendant great to see, sadly this arc to me as been the most boring and lowest event store payout I've taken part in 😬😞😂🤣🤣 but glad to see you're happy 💪🙏🖖

[fringe pond]

Not much chance with my augur then? 😥 dont have archer trip or nx01

[spark willow]

Is there an event this weekend for spending G3 materials?

[desert laurel]

Yes, phlox auction.

[jaunty saffron]

I've used my valdore, pmt got 10 kills, pct got 13, remember to remove Hugh from below decks.

[proven pendant]

Nice to know I just went up in ops and most everything requires rare g4 now woop

[spice goblet]

Why did the lvl 35 hostile count yesterday but not today?? Scopely math??

[dreamy patio]

because of the minor amount of loot they contained, they've never counted for xindi hostile kills

[celest relic]

Confirmed?

Any other officers or currency? I’m assuming xslb, no sms?

[jaunty marlin]

It doesn't even work on some of the 40+ too.

[desert laurel]

I don't expect an xslb or additional currency, but it seems possible. They've done that before.

[celest relic]

Oh wow. I coulda swore it was only two weekends. Did that change? And thanks for the heads up!

[desert laurel]

The schedule is subject to change, and it was initially billed for two runs. Was changed about a week ago.

[broken crescent]

What about Hoshi. This that a pay only officer this time? I think I'm going to end up like 9 (11 maybe) short and believe I have done everything available

[desert laurel]

Don't know the details about Hoshi, but the last few rares have been like that, ie. not completable in the release month, but enough sourcing over the next few months to unlock.

[dreamy patio]

Probably next arc, they've been moving father and farther away from full unlocks during the introduction arc and have added ways to source later, at a trickle at best.

[broken crescent]

I didn't really play for the past couple months. The last time I played a whole month fully, I got the rare unlock so was shocked this time to be so far off

[dreamy patio]

yeah, that's a thing of the past

[broken crescent]

The loss of things slowly like this is one of the reasons my time has been cut back. It actually demotivates me to consider spending (if they care at all)

[jaunty marlin]

20k 20k 17.5k are pretty normal BP payouts. Same exact thing happened last month.

[ruby garnet]

Last month was adjusted?

[ruby garnet]

Yes those are normal but I was referring to never seeing back to back domination or two domination events within 3 days before.

[acoustic coral]

Why dont the lower level xindi aquatic score for the sms?

[dreamy patio]

Because they're essentially neutral mission hostiles, not tagged as the xindi faction and have never scored for the xindi hostile events.

[acoustic coral]

not true, when points earned for loot in xindi sms events was what counted they DID count for points. and this sms doesnt specify it has to be 40+

[dreamy patio]

Because they had loot, not as a kill

So yes true

[acoustic coral]

this event does not specify a level requirement for the hostiles, only a type.

[dreamy patio]

The xindi hostile events have run numerous times and always been 40+

[acoustic coral]

not when its not specified. loot events are still hostile events, and this event does not specify a level requirement for hostiles killed in the description.

[dense verge]

I could of sworn that silent enemy had been removed from the Q trials but I had one pop up this past week

[dreamy patio]

Was supposed to be removed, but wasn't.

[flint canopy]

Does anyone know what the exocomp factory key was for that was gifted this morning?

[fiery compass]

no idea

[dreamy patio]

they haven't said

didn't receive one myself

mine is at 44

[fiery compass]

i still haven't claimed mine. idly curious if it'll go away at some point but either way don't want it in my inventory

[dreamy patio]

but if it's a fix for something? lol

[fiery compass]

than RIP me and it should have been explained better xD

[dreamy patio]

lol

[jolly sun]

Surprised they haven’t primed it and made that the only source of loot exos 😂

[torn crescent]

The exo key is to unlock your building to allow it to go past level 50

[dreamy patio]

no

[distant cargo]

Really love the consistent messaging here! 🥰🙄

[sleek horizon]

I received one this morning but no idea what it’s for

[rugged otter]

Hi Scopley, i dont complain at all, but today i am compelled to write about this issue. Most of ops 40-41 players are not being able to complete event "Stun & Kill - Bounty II SMS" due to insufficient reputation with EX-Borg faction needed to aquire Particle Delay Beam needed for completing this event! (Even though i havent skipped a single day of ex-borg grinding since unlocking the faction @ops 38 months ago!!!)
I am dissapointed as this is just one of several events i am unable to complete because ark runners didnt think this through before releasing them. I kindly ask you to grant us ex borg particle delay beam and deduct needed resources from inventory, or lower the rep requirement or just finish the event for us so we can do the third one and compete in slb at the end.
It is not fair as most of players ops 40-41 are unable to finish the event for the same reasons mentioned above. This is a Scopley mistake so please do something about it!
P.s. i could have finished the event a dozen times for the time it took me to write this ticket ingame and here if i just had the opportunity! Thank You for understanding LLP 🖖

[desert laurel]

What rep level do you need? and where are you now?

[leaden gale]

So does this arc top the list as worse yet? Only seen on hot fix vs 2-3 on last update? Still having to clear cache is play more than 15 minutes

[flint canopy]

To go past 50 you need exo comp factory key 2. This was a repeat of the first one.

[acoustic coral]

I can only kill one lvl 40 xindi at a time. its taken me over an hour of sending, killing, blowing up, repairing, and resending and I'm still 350 points (7 ships) from finishing. It really is a tall order and I couldnt consistently get one per run until I was at ops 41.

[gray rover]

Hello, I am wondering about the current FT Upgrade SMS. Yesterday I used protomatter to purchase Emblem of Assessments in the FT refinery. However, I didn't earn any points in the SMS event. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

[ripe jungle]

It has to be spent leveling an FT

[vagrant linden]

How do you find out what server you’re up against in the xalb?

[rugged otter]

I need 1500 more rep to unlock Particle beem delay favour 😦

[rugged otter]

Which ops lvl are you? Have you unlocked any of the favours needed for xindi grind/loop?
Because i dont belive its possible for a player of ops 41 to kill those hostiles with G3 epic ships no matter the crew and fuffs/exocomps... Not sure about NX-01 and monaveen but i dont have those yet...

[desert laurel]

41 is able to beat them, but the level of development is high. Without the delay favors, you're in a bad spot.

[acoustic coral]

maxed favors (without spending) for my level for xindi. I just went to ops 42 last week, havent upgraded any of the buildings or anything yet bc Ive been saving for a spend event. I use my maxxed augur to kill them. crew I use is ENT-Pic (as capt), ENT-Data, Janeway. Below I stack defense and Paris.

[abstract gate]

Where code?

[acoustic coral]

example. this is usually how it goes, lol. no exos or anything.

[celest relic]

They added an extra auction for phlox after they changed his ability again. I didn’t care for him before, but with new hostile functionality I’m back in. So it’s a net positive, imo

[heady mica]

Seems like they messed a lot of people up with what they did. Why they do dat?

[celest relic]

Nothing was on the scheduled prior, so no expectation should have been there. They added an option given there may be new interest. Since it has an sms, I don’t see it as any issues, just benefits

[quasi token]

[fickle imp]

So why tf is there another recruit phlox slb when it wasn’t on the calendar ?????

[fiery compass]

it was added a few days ago

[fickle imp]

Where 🤔

[fiery compass]

in-game

the image you posted also does say "subject to change"

[fickle imp]

Why didn’t they just make an announcement then?

[fiery compass]

i don't know

that would have been nice, i agree

[fickle imp]

They really should announcements for that kind of thing as not many people regularly check the in game news as it’s usually broken anyway

[bronze star]

Bounty III is a disaster except big guys 😡

[forest kelp]

OK.. u need to ANNOUNCE!! that we need travel tokens for an EVENT today.. OR U NEED to give us a max pull of 8 TOKENS.. cuz like, i used all my tokens yeserday...

[cobalt flare]

I absolutely cannot complete it (ops 55).

[fiery compass]

you get slightly less points per kill in the event if you punch down. i was willing to do that for ease of completion because i'm very ahead on the loop; if you're very struggling with the loop it's probably also not a significant cost to punch down either

[pale rain]

Ops 53

[scarlet seal]

Are you having a mother fecking laugh sco

[cobalt flare]

Huh, yeah, maybe I have enough tokens, since I never use them, since I can only kill 2-3 55 silent enemies. Let me go try to kill ~500 41s

[scarlet seal]

I can kill 3 lvl55 a run not a chance

[cobalt flare]

No, go kill 500 41s! Piece of cake!

[fiery compass]

there's other systems inbetween the two, i mean

[scarlet seal]

Nope don’t have time, after all some of us have real lives and health issues

[pale rain]

Agreed

[cobalt flare]

This whole arc has essentially excluded me. Can't compete in the new artifacts, either, because can't get enough Silent loot

[scarlet seal]

Another classic case of quantity and not quality from the money grabbing sco over lords

[pale rain]

Those tales they tell are like words coming from a used car salesman. Nothing but complete bs

[idle bobcat]

Sooooo…kill silent hunters but not changing spawning rates because one can’t kill higher levels…nicely done again Scopely

[cobalt flare]

I guess I'll go run some of the new Xindi armadas while I wait for the new arc. Oh, wait, not sure I've waiting long enough to pull directives for my second armada since they first came out

[bronze star]

Unnecessary waste of time for me (ops 45). And even if an ops 55 tells he can't finish it, there's a serious mistake done by creating this event. 😒

[pale rain]

Low end of the brackets have real issues with the silent hostiles

[cobalt flare]

Apparently, it's not bad for certain ops levels. But for us, not feasible

[pale rain]

55's are in the same brackets g5 rare ships are needed

[cobalt flare]

It's just mind-blowing that Scopely won't fix it

[pale rain]

I was ops 52 so didn't even bother for weeks til i built g5 ships. Tried a couple but not worth the costs yet

I mean 53 for less than a week now how much progress can be expected to have been made by now

[cobalt flare]

Right, I guess it will resolve itself once I finally get a Sanctus

And then level it up

So, months after the arc ends

[pale rain]

Not too worried event store is garbage anyway. Not missing much there

[cobalt flare]

True, a few officer shards, in the end. But it makes me feel bad to see all those zeros in event points

[pale rain]

Only good things they added they put a limit on

[proud wing]

I’m Ops 45 and doing very well completing the bounty SMS’

[pale rain]

Worst event store with the worst payouts since I've been playing

[cobalt flare]

The silver lining, lol

[pale rain]

I got more Currency as an ops 22 in duality than i jave this arc

[bronze star]

What ship & level? And what crew & level?

[covert frigate]

@cosmic steeple @loud solar There is no way to compete this event without some free tokens..

[proud wing]

@bronze star For Bounty 3? Level 45 Valdore, Ent Picard, Ent Data and Tucker, Tier 2, 5 and 2 respectively. Didn’t say it was trivial, but Ops 45 doesn’t mean it’s impossible.

[burnt girder]

@pseudo rune @cosmic steeple can we possibly get an event gift package with more silent tokens in it for this event? 2 tokens a day isn't enough and the last couple of events for the artifact pulls used my stockpile of silent tokens...

I'm ops 50...and I will say that this is not enough tokens at all for this event

[cobalt flare]

Count yourself lucky, actually.

Changing the topic from an impossible event to one that seems to have disappeared, aren't we supposed to have a Career Advancement event still?

[fiery compass]

did you qualify in one of the previous 3 like the event info says you needed to? mine's still running

[cobalt flare]

I haven't spent any of my measly collection of event currency, yet, no.

[proud wing]

Less than 3 days to do so then

And if you didn’t spend, you missed all the Career Advancement events

[cobalt flare]

Yeah. Guess I kinda checked out of this arc and didn't read the event text carefully enough on that one

Hard to stay engaged when so many events cannot be completed.

[proud wing]

Keeping the officers secret is the worst part of those, i did the 1st one just to get into the final, then ignored the other 2, weren’t great amounts of shards either way

[raw owl]

I had to spend on an officer I have at t5 to get into finals 😂🥲😢

[dull belfry]

SO MUCH QUALITY.

[covert frigate]

The Quality is in the Quantity !

[proven flame]

Who is ready for the next arc to add more new things?

[acoustic bear]

Me.

[idle bobcat]

So the silent hunter event….spawning rate of level 46s is not adjusted so 15 of us sitting around trying to get level 46s silent hunters since none of us can hit level 49s…also not enough tokens to complete because of the low score for hitting 46s…Scopely really messed it up again. WTG.

[proven flame]

Clearly the event wasn't designed for you - Scopely probably /s

[peak cairn]

Fact is, some events are going to be difficult or even impossible for some people to complete. The game is designed to be tough at times. Always has been

[pine roost]

i'm just used to pass from those with 'heroic' tag as really meant to pay a visit to store to score even for first milestone, and i say it about syndicate points event mainly, but that of silent ships should have a lower option to go for imo

[nocturne cave]

need a fairly big inc g5 with enough research .. a high level Q building and a fair share of spending . and still it was a struggle at 55.. at 56 the rare boat fixes this ,

not to mention ce crew

[arctic knoll]

The silent enemies are hilarious. They are bracketed (including the refinery), but folks seem to punch down, I've definitely seen g5s hitting the 41 Silent Hostiles...

[nocturne cave]

i have the 55 -57 mostlyu to myself... they barely touch it :p

[fiery compass]

for the event today, i spent a token hitting 44's instead of waiting for enough 46's to spawn in a system where everyone was after them. i don't know why people would punch down several levels, but i wasn't alone in hunting 44's instead of 46's (but at least the big ships went for 44's when i was in there)

maybe memory of the previous SLB where 41's scored the same as 55's?

[acoustic bear]

I punched down as well hit 44,s because all the whales where in the next system hitting the 46,s lol

[arctic knoll]

They scored the same, so they could cheese scores with a lot of hostiles

[acoustic bear]

Some lower guys cleaned up while I was in there lol.

[fiery compass]

yeah, and then it made sense, but this time you wanna only punch down so far

if you're punching down at all, even

[nocturne cave]

some dont have a choice .. getting the crew right is a challenge in itself for most

[arctic knoll]

Great for you, but as usual for folks on the lower end entering into things are left in rough spots

[arctic knoll]

Yeah, that's at least kind of progress

[fiery compass]

again, i get punching down a hostile or two, but I feel like the northcutt could probably have been in the 46 system instead of the 41.

And I cleared 44's in part so that anyone who needed to hit 41's would have an easier time.

saw a 45 warp in with a cerritos'd kelvin and i imagine a system that was like 60% 41's was the best experience they've ever had

[ripe jungle]

Weak. I went one system up and cleaned out the 51s before anyone else showed up 😛

[fiery compass]

yeah, turbo slacker here i know xD

what's the warp range on the 51 system anyway, i can't check right now

[ripe jungle]

I think at this point I will hit 51 before I use up my g4 loot

[warped totem]

So is there going to be a 4th part of the Enterprise arc where they add Mayweather and Reed?

[ripe jungle]

220

[fiery compass]

oh so i can at least already get there. i'll give that a go once the pilum's big enough to deal with 49's easily, thanks.

[ripe jungle]

Phlox is a big help

[fiery compass]

should be getting him monday morning, can't wait to find out

[arctic knoll]

But his bridge ability is only for PvP, right? If it is also for PvE, that'd be an interesting update

[ripe jungle]

#⭐-official-announcements message

They need to fix his officer description still 🤔

[tall palm]

Wow. That’s crap. Only allowed 75 borg cube bp and now I’m short 20.

[arctic knoll]

Gah, I forgot about that change...thanks!

I saw this post #💬-general-feedback message and now the question is if Phlox would be better than Trip or Trip needs to be in the mix...Definitely like the idea of using 5 in the mix, but SNW Spock, Tucker, Phlox might be a good combo

[arctic knoll]

@celest relic, I got the notification but looks like the message disappeared. Thanks for that heads up and I guess I'll try with Phlox over Trip. I'm assuming both tier 1 comparsions

[celest relic]

Yeah, I tried Tripp t1 and he just wasn’t finding a place on my ent or augur with various crews. But looking at logs having half the silent hostile crits get washed would have been significant. I’ll hopefully unlock phlox Monday

[arctic knoll]

Just tried, didn't work out so well for me...looked at the logs, and it went for 62 rounds...

[arctic knoll]

Seeing how well SNW Spock did, I tried this and combat finished in just under 20 rounds...any thoughts advice to improve? It performed about as well as the Severus, Decius, Charvanek combo that I'd previously used, both seem to get me about 2 Silents per hull...with Cerritos buffing

[burnt girder]

This crew works better for silents:

Severus, decius, charnavek

[white stone]

@arctic knoll what g3 faction ship do you have and at what teir?

[burnt girder]

Also don't mind just tpring on board that one ship, I just did that because I hate ships being uncrewed in station

[arctic knoll]

That's the crewing I mentioned. That SNW Spock with the Tal method seemed to perform the same

[burnt girder]

Ah gotcha

[arctic knoll]

Augur, just finished tiering (and leveling) it today. Voyager is close-ish (although not quite as much as it was)...but gets a loot bonus, but probably should try switching back to the Augur...fair point. I do also have both a D4 and Ent, but those are lower tiers (and levels)

@burnt girder, for example, this a bit old, but the Romulan crewing Paris and the non-epic Romulans have all been promoted since then...so probably worth a try, maybe it would do better comparatively now

Probably should move this over to #🤝-help-each-other, but figured I'd mention I'm thinking I'll try this (Augur)

[ripe jungle]

Don’t you have Hugh yet? Check what mitigation you’re getting, those stats look a bit low, you should be stacking more defense rather than filling up with BDA’s

[arctic knoll]

Ah, I could go for more def stack, just figured the stats were filled. Hugh still alludes, although the BDA stacking looks to have been alright. Looks like I might be able to get 3 if I can find 41s fast enough...but the Cerritos buff will likely run out first

[ripe jungle]

Paris needs defense stats to provide mitigation.

[arctic knoll]

Ah, right...good point! Although even with that mistake, did manage an additional Silent to the hull

[arctic knoll]

@ripe jungle, better as far as def stacking? I thought about BLT, but even by 5 the def per officer isn't as impressive as Kirk and Spock, Grush at least tries...

[arctic knoll]

Def stacking provided at least some benefit

[burnt girder]

Don't forget combat exos and titan buff if you have a titan

[arctic knoll]

The one time I accidentally picked up an alliance mate's Titan buff that didn't seem to do as much as the Cerritos buffs. I probably should have thought about an exo, although I'll pop one as I go for some Xindi

[burnt girder]

Yeah it all depends on your titan research

If you don't have the titan, the buff won't do as much because you don't have the research

[echo otter]

On my server the 41 system is full of 50+ players hitting the 41s. As a low 40s players I get 5-6 per hull and having only 3 tokens since I didn't use one yesterday I still can't complete the event. You can't punch down when your in the lowest system. Scopely really needs to do better or more people will start leaving the game. Plus the respawn rate is horrible. Currently 6 people just waiting for a 41 to respawn. Ridiculous.

I ended up with 410/900 on the sms and I won't get more tokens before the sms is over.

[narrow violet]

Their just wasting their tokens then, as they cannot spend the loot 😂

[echo otter]

They need to do better if they want to retain the player base. I see more and more quit all the time. We have lost several whales in our alliance alone in the last 6 months.

[arctic knoll]

I have a Titan, just my buffing research for the Titan and the Cerritos hasn't been much of a priority for me...I should get around to it

[narrow violet]

Honestly let the whales quit, they ruin the game

[echo otter]

I'm ready to quit to be honest. This arc everything is way over powered for the ops level that they are introducing it for. Some of those whales were very helpful in anchoring madas and such not all whales are jerks that feed on the low levels.

[cunning radish]

so get stronger and start it in a few weeks or month or whatever

its not the end of the world if you cant do everything in the game immediately

[ashen wharf]

ah the get stronger argument havnt seen that since cc’s said primes were All obtainable f2p

[desert laurel]

Pretty sure rev made a video stating the exact opposite.

[ashen wharf]

2022 changed that mistaken trust tbf

[desert laurel]

Found it, recent video even:
#📺-streams-and-videos message

Anyway, which non-f2p primes are you most interested in? To me, the biggest thorn isn't even a prime, it's the whip.

[ashen wharf]

dunno i dont look at em since they made them unique currencies

[jolly sun]

If your ftp, why do you need it.. you can get all the protomatter you need to upgrade say your cascade just doing the dailies.

Now you got lots of FT, sure it’s handy but complete RNG

[desert laurel]

A f2p that participates in pvp will get smushed without a supporting Q's court. And the whip supplies proto to develop other epics too.

[fiery compass]

the forbidden tech unlocks, yes levelups, and the protomatter for the Q building exchange is significant

[jolly sun]

So you know how much proto matter has dropped and I’m almost maxed 😂

100k that’s it in all that time

The whip is not the droid your looking for 😆

Okay so correct I’ve unlocked lots of ft, none of which I can upgrade and led to me buying all the catalyst producers to lvl up what I had

The whip is not dripping protomatter that often at all, first week and that was it 😆

What lvl is your whip ?

Sorry tier

So you’re commenting on something you’ve not got ?

Buy it tier it to 9 and sit for months pulling it and then you all will know 😆

[desert laurel]

What do you consider the biggest f2p need then? I see whip on here a lot, and G & H dock, though the latter is probably mostly barnowl. Dolamides used to be oft-requested, but that's died down a lot since drip sourcing came.

[jolly sun]

Decent Alliance

We did I don’t know how many waves and formadas yesterday

[dreamy patio]

Cake. Can't go wrong with cake.

[desert laurel]

That's free though, I mean need that's locked behind a paywall.

[jolly sun]

Docks I would say, biggest game changer and QOL

[fiery compass]

I think the Talios refit actually solved a frustration I had; double pulling charged nanos without the 2x charged nano prime made you choose between credits, directives, or progress; now you can get all 4 credits & either directives or tiering the ship still if you triple pull.

the drydocks are i think up there with the whip, especially if you're an active player who either loves to mine constantly, is low enough that you'd be unlocking the 4th early that way, or pvp a lot in a way that causes station defense to come up

[jolly sun]

I just wanted it in Blue 😆

[fiery compass]

it is also a sweet look and bonus points for the faster grinding

[dreamy patio]

reminds me, need to do probes

[fiery compass]

might do probes later for the xp and speedups

[jolly sun]

Fantastic place to get Officer XP

[fiery compass]

indeed, though g5's not being terrible right now either, i just wanna be able to use my drydocks again lol

[dreamy patio]

i'm back at the, got many many badges, but no officers to level

lol

Either no badges and all the officers to level, or badges galore and nothing left to level\

need 75 more levels for 80 messhall

[jolly sun]

Pulling those Pic officers just for Mess Hall 😅

[desert laurel]

Talios skin came too late for me, have more inert than I can use, and the ship's ops locked with only one more component to max.

[fiery compass]

understandable; i finished the bajoran rep a few weeks ago so the defiant one feels largely pointless to me as well

[jolly sun]

Defiant is 24 days away and is even less needed 🤣

Neon me up baby

[desert laurel]

Yeah, both are untouched in the s31 store.

[fiery compass]

I think the talios skin is more impactful if you're time crunched, lower ops, or f2p as mentioned

[jolly sun]

But daily wave claims are ftp gold

That’s why you need the squad

[dreamy patio]

70 in on the defiant just to have it

[jolly sun]

Free prime every four months this, we carry our alliance players for just that

[dreamy patio]

got the defiant late, so only tier 9

[jolly sun]

Bought it and complete waste of money

[acoustic bear]

It really sucks when all your specialty are ops locked lol

[desert laurel]

Couple days away from maxing mine, and then I can see how a maxed one performs against the hard 60s.

[jolly sun]

I don’t even use it anymore, tough little ship that just buffs 😫

[desert laurel]

I force it in all DSAs. 😃
Favorite ship in the franchise, so I'm going to use it.

[acoustic bear]

I'd rather have it then my Cerrito lol

[jolly sun]

Looks great the D

[fiery compass]

it's a fun ship

i miss when it was relevant for pvp for me

suppose i may be re-approaching that point

[jolly sun]

I used Defiant and Talios to Farm Capital Traders before my push … weeeeeee

[fiery compass]

yup, good times

[jolly sun]

Did everyone figure out the recent armada event, was based on final players loot 😆😗

[fiery compass]

thankfully our alliance didn't have a ton of ds armadas with unstarred voyagers during the event, yes

[jolly sun]

Once we posted do FKR solo In AC, I’ve never seen so many players with starts all of a sudden 😆

[fiery compass]

didn't need to do them solo, just have the biggest ship in be the only one unstarred

[jolly sun]

Spawn rates so much better

[arctic knoll]

The other thing about it, faster to max a Talios to a lock and frees things up to get all the Borg refinery options

[fiery compass]

yeah, I had a bit more words on that higher up that you might not have seen, but I agree completely with you on this
#🏆-event-chat message

[arctic knoll]

Ah, missed that. I can't wait till I can get the materials to do the charged probes prime...but I'm definitely enjoying how it encourages me to be freer with putting the Borg refinery to use. It almost even makes the Talios directives worth getting

[fiery compass]

prime charged nanos - the one that doubles it - requires g6 uncommon, so that's actually gonna be forever off as a f2p
prime borg rewards - 4* epic to research, so ops 40 via loyalty chests/events/etc - is just double the credit/rep output of the refine options (and something for the antique refinery)

[arctic knoll]

Ugh, I guess I blocked off that it was g6 and hoped it was g5. Pretty sure I already did the one for the increased payouts, granted I'm probably done with the antique refinery unless they ever put the trader in the systems above 33, but I doubt they'll ever do that. I wish the cargo improvement for the Vi'Dar wasn't (I want to say) g5 mats, cause all my Vi'Dar exos are mostly just going to collect dust until that cargo gets a giant boost (same with how late the Stella cargo improvement is...)

[fiery compass]

yeah, vi'dar and stella cargo primes are g5 rare, which... yeah, at least it's not g6

the vi'dar exos are entirely useless for me; ship has about 10% the cargo of my talios and only a sixth of what i need a day per cargo, so "faster" doesn't help

[arctic knoll]

Yeah, like that cargo improvement being lower would be great, even if it was like g4 epic or something. It's crazy to me that the Borg solos provide exos for the Vi'Dar instead of the Talios cause by the time you're doing most of those solos, you're using the Talios...especially for rare and epic since those refineries aren't available till ops 40...

[fiery compass]

yeah, the uncommon ones i can at least moderately get as those open at 35, but by 40 the cargo's already small.

and then the expansion cube actually gives talios exos but those basically don't get run ever so shrug

doesn't help that unlike solos - which i find great - the expansion cube doesn't have anything really useful other than the talios exo in the first place as a reward

[arctic knoll]

At least during MegaCubes there is reason to run Expansion Cubes. It still takes sourcing enough directives for them and having folks able to help hit a big enough expansion that it actually rewards enough to be useful

[fiery compass]

i have 9k expansion cube directives, thanks to megacube making me keep up with my borg solos (starting rare/epic solos pays them out handily), but i don't run them almost ever cause they're too hard to coordinate

[arctic knoll]

If they fix the Xindi armadas, Dezoc becomes even more useful...granted even as an ops 41, they need to really fix those. Although the biggest mistake of those was making them g5+...

[fiery compass]

i might, next megacube, just take a day, punch down a bit to avoid repairing, and quick start through as many as i can with a team of bigger talios's

[arctic knoll]

They don't really have to be...You're Talios doesn't have to be in the solo that gets the buff, there is the option solo a solo with a single ship to a small one or something...

[fiery compass]

it's hard wrangling 5-6 people who have a talios to run a solo at the same time in my alliance

[arctic knoll]

Yeah, last mega after I'd used the expansion start I had, my alliance realized we could go a lot bigger...so next run will work out a lot better...

Can be on the same level as formada organizing...I get it, but still it is possible, just probably easiest batching things...

[fiery compass]

oh for sure

i think the big difference maker is really going to be the quick starting

getting at most 3 in off a solo was terrible; if we can do 10-15 off a single set of solos that's so much better

[arctic knoll]

The QS is definitely is something that can be helpful, admittedly I've put that back burn with S31...but I do look forward to it

[arctic knoll]

As long as you know there is going to be a win, there has always been stacking armada starts...join one start one to go after it. But you have to be sure it'll be a win

[fiery compass]

yeah, and real specifically the armada starter has to survive too (or make it back)

but even that used to have to be different people starting them

thanks to QS now it can all be me chaining expansions back to back to back if i want

i think it's the most useful thing out of the S31 store and that's saying a lot

it's also quite good at getting several armadas out of a single max fortification, which comes up a fair bit in DS

[arctic knoll]

Also, they really need to update some of the refineries (and general sourcing for elsewhere)...cause there's at least Gossa with the Borg isn't sourceable...but it seems like for the Borg originally everyone was supposed to be somewhere...Similar to how for Voyager they had to be in the Xindi store expansion of Ex-Borg for some of the officers instead of updating the nanotech exchange. Or how DS9 crew is limited from the Bajoran store or SNW crewing from the Mantis...

[arctic knoll]

There's a lot of good things in the S31 store...

[fiery compass]

I believe you're right that it's everyone but gossa, and the missing DS9/SNW sourcing is terrible (and voy is slow)

[fiery compass]

oh indeed there are.

I think genuinely everything in the store is easily justifiable as a purchase

the defiant skin is imo the least valuable thing, followed by maybe a few of the favors

[arctic knoll]

And DS9/SNW probably has somewhat of decent sourcing. The Borg is might take the care as the solos get better...

[fiery compass]

the DS9/SNW officers that are in the bajoran faction store and mantis refinery source well imo. it's the ones that aren't that are the problem

[arctic knoll]

Maybe, it also depends where you are, but for the most part yeah on the skin. The favors just mostly seem like they didn't go heavy enough on those...

[fiery compass]

the borg officer sourcing is great to me (other than the assimilate 3), but i also triple pull all 3 solos on cooldown so that affects my opinion

[arctic knoll]

Although I will say some of the things that have chances such as officer rolls or BP rolls in armada chests, bump up the floor. Like a maxed g3 epic chest should have a lower minimum and all of the drop chances should get a bump with it (other than the luckiest of pulls)

[arctic knoll]

Yeah, the multiple pulls are really good. Dezoc, Queen...I'm not sure a third assimilate other than Gossa

[fiery compass]

it's those 3, yeah. one of which doesn't have non-event sourcing, and the other two are iirc expansion cube only which is meh

[arctic knoll]

One of my weird frustrations right now is I need to bump up where I'm doing the my unc (for dom and borg) cause I need more credits to get more pulls and just running more isn't a great option

[arctic knoll]

Yep, that's the sourcing on those...and yeah...

[fiery compass]

not enough directives or not enough time? quickstarting solos to drop their timer to 10 seconds is also fun, but i suspect it's the not enough directives thing

[arctic knoll]

But with the 3, Dezoc is probably the key one...since the other 2 depend on Dezoc causing assimilate

[arctic knoll]

Worrying about my burn rate of directives...

[fiery compass]

ahh, fair. especially when you can pull extra directives, but only at the cost of other related progression in both cases

[arctic knoll]

Yeah, plus running like 5 uncs seems excessive...

But crew improvements from both recruiting sources will help. Promoting 5, getting Sisko, getting Hugh...etc

Anyways, I need to call it a night (like a while ago). Have a good one

[fiery compass]

that'll all be great, yeah. you have a good one!

[jolly sun]

I found this, so the solution

I’m the guy who organises the teams on discord

With armada speed ups, last run we did it all on one buff

Another method for Formadas, waves and now Xindi

I swear they just do this to increase my workload, I blame Jess 🤣

[celest relic]

*stares in Ikatika

[burnt girder]

Is there any way that you guys could extend the event or gift us more tokens to finish this stun and kill event? I used 4 silent tokens....and I got to milestone 3/4.

Scoring scale was ridiculous...

[dense ocean]

Was the Armada Event wrongly counting points?
I had 9k points to go to the next ladder, launched rare armada, so I should get 70*200=14.000 points, but only got 5k .... leaving me 4k to go the that same ladder... why?

[lethal edge]

last day and and no event with event currency really!!!

[ripe jungle]

Are you sure it wasn’t 9k to go for 162k, which would match being 4k to go for 171k after the armada?

[lost storm]

No event store loot events on the last day?

[dense ocean]

I dont have screenshot of it and i dont recall that total points, only the 9k to go. And after starting that armada im not recalling any chest/rewards for the next bracket

[waxen schooner]

When you guys said you were focusing on quality over quantity, we didn't realize that meant event store loot. Didn't get much quality or quantity.

[molten glade]

where is the artifact event???

today is the 24th

[blazing furnace]

Subject to change

[jolly sun]

Nothing free here.. move along, move along

[ripe jungle]

Which one? The heroic event is still running

[ornate geyser]

So much for the last week ramp…

Adios, event store…it was good while it lasted…

[lost storm]

And the cherry on top is this is probably the furthest I've ended from the rare unlock in an arc ever.

[keen mist]

Suppose I should knock these missions out

[misty haven]

I was hustled too. Submit a ticket. They suggested this artifact. Don’t have much hope they will agree though

[agile ravine]

Hi can some one tell me, when the blue prints for Vi'Dar becomes available to buy, for the Enterprise Tokens? Just got to lvl 24 and was hoping to get it, before the event ends in 19 hours

[agile ravine]

been doing that every 10-15 minutes after I hit lvl 2 😄

[fiery compass]

i believe at ops 25

[agile ravine]

That would be irritationg @fiery compass since all the others, Jelly, D'vor, Disco, Franklin and Botany all where in the store, before I got to their respective lvl's

[vital wraith]

Has a date been set for the servers merging? Knowing a date would really change how I play my game for the next few days

[cobalt totem]

Do you mean incursions or an actual server merger? In case of the latter there is an event schedule of a week (?! - someone should confirm that)

[vital wraith]

Actual server merging

Originally it was a few days from now, but people are saying it would be after the territory season. Given that update I decided to not buy MV BP. I'm a few weeks short of getting the ship

[fiery compass]

Its my understanding that it was delayed until after the TC pass ends; it being postponed in general should be an announcement in-game for you
here's the latest on it I've seen:

#🌌-galaxy-chat message

[mint sedge]

I realized today while doing missions that I still needed the Bat for the Phlox mission, so I went and mined it and discovered no way to "refine" the Bat in ordeer to satisfy the mission. Can that pleasee be fixed/addressed?

[dreamy patio]

It was escalated, no word on if they're going to address it.

[little flint]

Spend SLBs. My server has enough level 60s to have their own bracket. Why must the 50s be required to compete with them? Change the scoring for G6 or finally put the 60s in their own bracket please. Places 1 to 19 are all in the 60s on my server. 50s can't compete.

[jolly sun]

Well they tried that and someone how put the entire games worth of whales in one event 😆

Imagine that bracket

[real tusk]

If they are spending that much anyway why shouldn't they be in that kinda bracket 😜

[keen mist]

Buy more packs, then you can compete.

[cunning stag]

And finished with the most uninspired, downright boring arc I've seen yet.

[heady mica]

They did Enterprise wrong imho

[upper atlas]

Well if this is it it's very much like how they ended Enterprise. Horribly but maybe we get yet another riker? 🙂

[ancient light]

Brackets are unfair at every level - they know its not feasible for a 55 to compete with a 60 in brackets - just like they know 30's cant compete with 35's. They purposely make it unfair to people, forcing them to spend money on packs to try and keep up. I am confident that every 60 gets a major discount (or is a Scopely paid gamer) fueling the sub 60 players to spend in order to keep up...

[proud wing]

I dunno, Enterprise was ok, but awful, out of character theme music 🤮

[heady mica]

I hope the talking points for the content creators is to blame the Enterprise series itself

[spark barn]

Knowing several of the 60s on my server, they generally have high spending thresholds and are extremely competitive. That said, they also have Scopely conceirges that immediately address any concerns they as well as having loyalty "benefits" provided - it was a big topic of discussion amongst several that some were getting benefits and others were not. Note that when they actually had to compete with others their same level, Scopely immediately changed the event and gave them a path to get 2x the officer shards that an under 60 had. As a 59, it really is becoming unpalatable and makes me question how much longer I will continue to play.

[tough carbon]

So, what do we have scheduled for this week?

[nocturne cave]

and what do the events entail though.. before we spend something or use something that we shouldnt ;p

[dreamy patio]

Oh don't worry, there will probably be some "surprises"

spend all your FC stuff, so we can get a fc event

[wheat raptor]

incursions again and they havent even fixed the store or given us our promised dues from the last one >.>

[opal mantle]

Any details on what these interim events actually entail?

[wheat raptor]

probably a flashpass

[fiery compass]

final weapon I believe we had recently as something xindi armada related

[dreamy patio]

Two flash passes, an incursion and a partridge in a pear tree.

final weapon is xindi armada stuff, yeah

[brave scarab]

We're never getting Faction Hunt again, are we?

[dreamy patio]

It's any hope that they addressed the ridiculoust costs of the boxes, armada starts and how to source them?

[arctic knoll]

And that Xindi armadas are g5+

[fiery compass]

yeah xindi/regular armadas, the xslb: #💫-event-information message
so that's likely that again

Q's rush hour and merry fool are currently unknown to me

[opal mantle]

Yah those are the two I’m most curious about

[warped ginkgo]

Qs rush hour has to be q trial hostiles, merry fool one will likely be something crazy as an April fools joke

Maybe like 20 epic armadas for 100 common g2 crystal

[dreamy patio]

q's rush hour, mining on a realta slb

[abstract gate]

Any idea if the servers that were supposed to merge prior to incursions will get to participate in incursions?

[opal mantle]

Might be an opportune time to do some missions lol

[woeful crystal]

Please Fix the xindi armada directives sourcing, Horid turn its horrible barely half way to a 1 chest pull since they came out. SPEEDING UP LOOP YEAH RIGHT!!!!

[inner cave]

No faction hunt/cow ??

[fallen coral]

No CoW, no Faction Hunt, no Mega Cube

[light elm]

Where is Crucible of War? We have never skipped that one in all the time I’ve been playing…

[covert frigate]

Stop complaining! They gave you 2 Battle Pass that you can buy!!!

[misty ruin]

Today’s event

[cosmic steeple]

Both are planned to run, though our calendar is always subject to change. COW is planned for tomorrow and FH next week.

[copper viper]

Thanks @cosmic steeple , appreciate the improvement in communication. Also like the graphic showing the timing. Just adding the standard events like COW,, borg, and faction hunt will get it to just what we need. Wondering if faction hunt has died, haven’t had it in a few months, been sitting on a bunch of ship upgrades 🙂 .

[cosmic steeple]

Both are planned to run, though our calendar is always subject to change. COW is planned for tomorrow and FH next week.

[cosmic steeple]

Whoa! I just updated about CoW and FH!

[dreamy patio]

would be nice if the schedule graphic actually had that on there

[nova cape]

Any Fleet Commander event?

[dreamy patio]

Only after you spend all your FC materials will there be a FC event

[nova cape]

You first then.

[celest relic]

Ok, I totally spent mine. Now u

[narrow fable]

@cosmic steeple Thank you for the calendar but the “subject to change” line is wearing very thin. Based on your comments above, it’s already incomplete/inaccurate.

[copper viper]

Not complaining at all @cosmic steeple appreciate the improved frequency of communication!

[cosmic steeple]

Yeah. I'd also prefer that we could say that they will run with 100% accuracy. But there have been cases where events have had to be postponed or changed.

[summer bronze]

But what about borg cube event?

[narrow fable]

Fair point. Sorry for moaning 😅 but I put together a calendar including the daily minis for my alliance so they can see any synergies. It gets frustrating when it’s inaccurate from day 1.

[cosmic steeple]

Totally understand!

[arctic knoll]

Has faction hunt scoring been updated yet? As I remember it doesn't really ramp up for hitting higher hostiles...

[novel hollow]

don't be afraid to tell the overlords that they can run them both together!!!

@cosmic steeple thanks for being so active.

[neat musk]

treasury = a big fat pass this time🤣

for most of us its never a muscle reflex to click on it it has to have practical value

unless this is a indication of things to come and it will be another activity killed off

Eco good luck going foward , hamster ☸️ we have it all ready for you

only kidding @cosmic steeple very infrequent poster here

[cosmic steeple]

Hey there! Totally understand about the second treasury contents. But as ship parts go, I don't think its too shabby.

[dreamy patio]

It is shabby

at least for g5

but the g5 packs aren't any better

[cobalt totem]

@cosmic steeple hi! Will there also be a run of the borg megacube events this time?

[cosmic steeple]

https://tenor.com/view/not-too-shabby-rachel-green-gif-25427648

[cosmic steeple]

Will see what I can find out.

[neat musk]

ship parts are all about how many hostiles you hit and your research so for those that try in the game the content is 🤮

i understand this might not reflect on every ones progress but for me its a none starter

as are most of the packs atm

[sage mango]

Is easter event code for revamped faction hunt?!

hunt eggs, hunt factions hmmmm?

[cobalt totem]

Or… maybe the summer hunt event with the Bounty hunter avatars?

[sage mango]

I'm still hunting for arc event store loot

[heady gale]

The ship parts are ok but what stopped me from getting this one is no 5* crystal, has gas and ore but they really should have included uncommon 5* crystal since the pack contains parts for all 5* ship types

At first I thought maybe it was meant to be for a certain ship type but then why have parts for all of them, just doesn’t make sense to not have the resources to match

[cosmic steeple]

Good point. Will try and see what's going on with the missing cystal.

[heady gale]

Thanks

[dreamy patio]

it doesn't have crystal because it's an explorer pack

heavier on gas, and with ore

[cunning radish]

it has double the gas

to compensate - they often revolve around like this

As arsenic says above

personally im probably going to buy it because its exactly what I need atm

[undone oak]

How about a fc event because I know people been waiting all ark long lol...and news on merge and incursions before people go crazy 🤪 lol....js don't put out a calendar before said is locked and with server specific information 😉 but obviously got nothing but love and Always looking to future 😆

[real tusk]

You can be happy about knowing when incursion is this early, thats a new one.

[undone oak]

True but typically bye weeks and merge was announced so who what when lol

[fiery compass]

i'd expect the incursion specifics in a week or just under, i'm just glad we've got the date in advance

[serene helm]

Yes gives me time to upgrade my Amalgam 😈

[light elm]

So, there is no PIC Troi… should this be Ent E Troi instead of TNG Troi?

(Also, PIC Riker isn’t desirable for most people…)

[split tiger]

Why is there a limit on these?

[slender escarp]

Because bleep you?

[split tiger]

I would actually buy the elite pack this time so I could guarantee getting the 18 I need to unlock E-Picard.

@cosmic steeple I have purchased the $9.99 pack for fast passes in the past to secure an officer unlock. I would do that again this time except that limit means I couldn't finish unlocking Picard even with the extra eggs. This is losing money.

[narrow violet]

Limit of 9, to get all 9. Please click
Chest 1 x1, Chest 2 x1, Chest 3 x1 😂

Or chest 1 x9 or chest 2 x3… 9 is such an arbitrary random number

What happened to 10

[karmic minnow]

scopley being tight again the mind boggles who thinks of these events

[arctic knoll]

At this point they just want to generate the bad will and hostility....

At ops 41 I have military supremacy to build/tier the surveys...

[fiery compass]

that's an odd choice of ships to require

[solar ferry]

Elite unlock doesn't appear to unlock Elite. 🤣🤣

[haughty yew]

The limits are silly. Its what a dozen shard’s different from whats offered, and what you would get, buying elite pass and using all the currency on a single officer.
59.5 shards -vs- 45 shards.
Noone wants leftover eggs 🍳.
Please scopely, fix this. 🙏

[karmic minnow]

why cant we spend them on what we want not what scopley wants us too i want picard E shards and 9 isnt enough to get him unlocked

[next robin]

@cosmic steeple Known issue?

[stark field]

I am missing an event reward from a few days ago. The one where you have to spend enterprise coins to get Doctor T’ana if you’re rank 1-50. I was rank 4 with 15 minutes left, and there is no way I fell below rank 50. So where it at?

[stable crow]

item name is wrong.
the "1 officer flash pass point" will work to unlock the elite path.

[next robin]

Also, this is the TNG Troi, not the PIC Troi...

[next robin]

I'm not going to risk it 😄

[narrow violet]

Fixed

[fallen coral]

I thought the names and pictures were related with some april fools joke

Thats why I didn't care

[next robin]

Good, I need an excuse to clear localization since I'm not disco mining today 🙂

[cosmic steeple]

If you clear loc, that should be fixed.

[light elm]

So it was supposed to be TNG Troi? 🤣😂

[fallen coral]

Odd

[light elm]

Not sure why it’s perceived as desirable to mix in a really old version of Troi with Ent E Picard & Ent E Data? 🤣

[cosmic steeple]

Yup.

[light elm]

Serious question though, why did you take the leaderboard button away? I used to be able to see which of my members had contributed, and which alliance was going to finish the most quickly…

When I have a smaller player that out-hustles a big for an event like this, I like to recognize their effort. Now I can’t see that anymore…

[scarlet coyote]

How does a person qualify to get the Military Supremacy event? Do we know what it's based on?

[real tusk]

no, we dont

[jolly sun]

I got it back today, as I hit ops 56 and have no rare yet … otherwise nobody seems to know 100%

[drifting briar]

that's the alliance milestone you were never able to see who contributed, when you look at the ALB you can see

[fiery compass]

there used to be one for alliance milestones. it vanished a week or a few back

[drifting briar]

not for COW

[ornate geyser]

Got it twice at 52…went to 53 last night…didn’t get it this time. Didn’t build any ships in between.

[jolly sun]

500 lvl 60s required, funtimes

[light elm]

Not true, I have always been able to see this for the AMS. I have a SS of the alliances who finished from every month going back a year…

[light elm]

See screenshot above, I always could before… reply didn’t work right

[inland willow]

Wrong officer on the event shop ?

Troi is not pic troi

[ornate geyser]

But if you pick Troi, dies she become Pic Troi?

[jolly sun]

Ouu 🤔

[main walrus]

So like who thought military supremecy is a good event 🤔

[weak stag]

Merely a visual bug 🤦

They don't count clearly

[cosmic steeple]

Should be fixed if you clear loc.

[spiral zodiac]

Well; at least I read about the shard limit before spending on the Elite unlock, totally not worth it with that limitation

[weak stag]

Curious if you can total more eggs than actually spend. Bet scopely not done that math

[violet whale]

Wow, the lag is spectacular today. I'm starting to think Scoopley is trying to introduce more lag.

[weak stag]

70800 potential eggs and 72000 shards purchasable

Scopely maths going well still lol

Theres 2 egg packs ypu can purchase too

10k eggs and 4k eggs

6 x9 at 800 per and 6 x12 at 400 per in my store

[inland willow]

Same as before

[weak stag]

So 54

Not 45

Epics

[narrow violet]

Dam I knew that calculator was giving me funny figures

[weak stag]

Ditto. My game crashed too so had to restart. Nothing changed

Do you work for scopely?

[inland willow]

Now with time from Germany

[narrow violet]

So no one corrects my blunder 😂 I deleted my calculations

[weak stag]

Oi saw that lol Def scopely logic. Bad maths, then delete it lol

[narrow violet]

Just like the overflow last arc 🤣

[weak stag]

What overflow 😛🥷🤣

[narrow violet]

🤫 wasnt me i swear 👀

[weak stag]

If it gets deleted did it exist 🧐

[narrow violet]

https://tenor.com/view/futurama-grandpa-time-travel-fry-philip-j-fry-gif-25729791

[weak stag]

Still make it 1200 eggs short of buying every officer shard lol

Possibly a free gift incoming

[ashen wharf]

sike buy a pack loser! -scopely

[narrow violet]

Buy the packs and you will be short

That’s if you wanted to click a million times to collect 9/12 shards per officer with the failed 1/3/5 redeem buttons 😔

[abstract pollen]

So we’re not going to get to use the last event currency to get Hoshi and Pholx like the others…? 😕😓

[weak stag]

Restarted again. No difference

Even been acknowledged yet?

[fiery compass]

since it's just text you probably need to clear localization; the correct officer is being given (there is no "pic troi")

[weak stag]

I know that. Its not just text though is it. Text says an officer that currently does not exist and the image with accompanying text is for a different officer that does exist but isnt the intended officer either.

Basic errors. Definitely promoting quality still 😉

As its not a revenue related issue, ignored and not important

[fiery compass]

it's correct for me, as i said you probably have to clear localization

[weak stag]

You got a different made up officer?

[fiery compass]

TNG Troi is a real officer

[static wigeon]

Again with the idiotic limits on Event Store purchases?!

[spiral zodiac]

think of it this way, its saving temptation for buying the elite pass and the points packs 😄

[weak stag]

Technically shes Just Deanna Troi, part of the tng crew

[static wigeon]

I didn't need any help with that 😂

[spiral zodiac]

lol

[jolly sun]

Apparently she was Picards conscious, kick her off the ship and set phasers to fun

[weak stag]

Fun you say 🧐

[sharp sinew]

Brilliant idea limiting shards to 12 or 9 respectively in the event shop. Now I can finally start or continue grabbing officers I don't even care about! Splendid! <@&509690795536941056>

[cosmic steeple]

https://tenor.com/view/that-was-sarcasm-anti-mixtape-i-was-being-sarcastic-i-wasnt-serious-gif-24122833

[cosmic steeple]

I am following up about the choice of TNG Troi. That seemed a little weird.

[stone grail]

If you’re going to limit them, make it a realistic number that would actually help sourcing, not 9 or 12

Especially as you’re now milking us in between arc as well as during the month

[autumn grail]

She's also really in the tp store and the 30+ ultra deck. One of these things is way not like the others

[pale rain]

Probably put the wrong officer in cause it was mislabeled for a minute and was easier to just keep it then, you know, actually fix something

[frosty yacht]

where has the last arc store gone? this AM it said 1 day left now vanished

[golden cape]

Cleared all data on Android, still not seeing leaderboard for AMS

[cosmic steeple]

I was just asking another player about this. Any idea how long its been gone for?

[sharp sinew]

https://tenor.com/view/nods-yes-not-wrong-its-true-story-valid-point-gif-14782869

[dreamy patio]

It's been gone the whole month

[cosmic steeple]

Will see what I can find out.

[dreamy patio]

It started when the rewards went missing on the slbs, and just showed the scoring. Then it was fixed and the button disappeared from all the ams

[ornate geyser]

Sorry…scrolling back is a mess…I just use the “my alliance” dropdown in the ALB, that gives me rank/points for my alliance. What am I missing…or more exactly, what are you missing?

Like right now I can see that 30 out of our 80 members have scored.

[warped ginkgo]

Scoring between ALB and AMS are different unfortunately, he's looking for the leaderboards that would pop up on the ams (as well as the alb) to check if any leeches are around

[light elm]

Talking to another alliance on my server, it went away around Day 14 of the Mission Key AMS, because they were tracking who was forgetting to grab their keys. So a week or so?

Which would be right about the app update

[ornate geyser]

Sure, I get that, high ops score way more on alb than ams. Still seems a pretty good proxy…?

[warped ginkgo]

Eh I can go kill 2 hostiles and beat everybody in my alliance, but some of them have been autofarming all day with the right ships, but we can't see any of that right now .

[cosmic steeple]

Thanks for the extra info!

[ornate geyser]

Ok, cool. You guys are paying way more attention than we are. Hope they fix it for ya!

[light elm]

Yeah the ALB has a mat spend component, that one can be won with a credit card. Even if you have the ships that score the most points on the AMS, you still have to get out there and kill some stuff with them.

[frosty yacht]

@cosmic steeple ?

[proud wing]

Event Store ended about 5 hours ago.

[frosty yacht]

why did it say 12 hours ago 1 day to go then. these guys and their different times for tons of stuff is a joke

[proud wing]

No idea. Everything starts and ends at the same time, more or less except during wacky savings time

[frosty yacht]

yesterday 3 event finished at 4pm, and 4 at 5pm then it seems the territory finishesat midnight. some of the stuff from the store vanished at 4pm yesterday others at 5pm then same again today

scopeless think we dont have jobs and lives

[proud wing]

The 4-5pm will correct itself on Sunday, i think, then it will all be back in sync.

[acoustic bronze]

I am ops 56 and got military supremacy but others on 55 or 54 haven't gotten it. Is it random who gets it?

[proud wing]

There’s some trigger no one knows. I got it last time, not not now it seems

[warped ginkgo]

Did you build the next ship between last time and now?

[ripe jungle]

Random is a better guess than any I’ve seen so far 😆

[proud wing]

Nope. Iirc it tasked me with building a G4 uncommon, which i already had, for several months.

[fiery compass]

at 49 i'm being tasked with Korinar/Newton/Pilum and using two of them to kill the relevant hostiles

[abstract pollen]

So there’s no one else that wanted to get the same deal on Hoshi/Pholx that was offered for event currency like Trip/T’Pol and Archer/Shran?

[desert laurel]

March was their release month, and they don't put them in end of arc stores for release month officers. Been that way since forever.

[dreamy patio]

except for the ent e officers

was able to use event store currency on data to finish the sms that came with his introduction

but those were added late in the month

[naive meteor]

It was the most lackluster event store ever, there wasn't enough event store credits,
3X in a row the Ticket Event's had no 👉🏼 Store Credits, no 👉🏼galactic recruitment token's plus not enough 👉🏼Mat's

Even the " visit " a website Event's had no Event store Credits 🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️

[ripe jungle]

Data wasn’t released in that month though. It was riker and troi and they weren’t in the event store.

[dreamy patio]

ah that's right, still data was an outlier, was surprised that i was able to finish the sms with the currency, bought one of his packs and then finished his sms at the end to get the hailing frequency

[ripe jungle]

Yeah that sms ran for multiple months. The others I think only ran in the month of release so you could only do them buying packs basically.

[warped ginkgo]

Iirc that edata sms also had way better rewards than the next few they released, guess they learned their lesson 😆

[dreamy patio]

lol right?

Was the only one i did

the rest of em were bad

wasn't even planning on doing his

but had extra currency and was like you know what' i want that HF"

[warped ginkgo]

It was the first one I paid attention to and I thought they were all like that until the next one that was like a slap in the face 😆 havnt done any since his (didn't even finish, only t3 😟)

[dreamy patio]

plus a maxed out data is crazy good

probably one of the better rares they've released lately

[warped ginkgo]

Yeah hes great at t3 so i can imagine the iso at higher tiers, I try to scoop as many shards as I can but they're being stingy with him

[dreamy patio]

troi was crazy good before they fixed her, now sometimes she gets a lower deck slot, or data's spot when he's stuck on a lucrative miner

[worthy plaza]

@peldorvarga what was changed with troi

[sharp sinew]

Definitely not true. It's been gone for a week or so. Hope they get it back ASAP.

[craggy cosmos]

What is hailing frequency? Uhura’s captain ability or something else?

[nocturne cave]

guessing people with a fresh tier ship get it. since i just got mine a t 56 after i build a sanctus recently

[urban pike]

will there be a spend egg event later?

[gusty wraith]

when did they add the limits in the egg store? when they fixed the "art"? don't remember it being there early

[dreamy patio]

was always there

[gusty wraith]

ahh

[grizzled mulch]

Just scroll back up to 1 minute after it rolled out yesterday and you'll see the complaints 😄

[prisma oak]

No Trailblaizer points been given?

Ah.. server busy.. 505 or sth.. points coming in now

[wind kindle]

Unity event is only scoring one point for a ‘help all’ click. Individual helps can be selected under help tab and each will score.

[grizzled mulch]

Pretty sure that's just the toast popup, and that it calculates properly in the background. I recall this happening before, but can't remember why. I donated 50x to the aliance and got 50 pts. All of my "mass helps" have added up right.

[open siren]

Confirmed, I just checked to make sure. Just the old visual glitch on the toast, I got the correct number of helps credited to the event.

[slender shuttle]

Why did my wave defense battle pass tier 9 and tier 18 change from ex borg creds to ultra recruit tokens all of a sudden? I did receive the ex borg creds but why is it now showing ultra recruit tokens?

[ripe jungle]

Hm mine still shows the ex borg credits

[naive meteor]

Mine show's absolute ZERO

[warped ginkgo]

Mine still shows exborg credits

[mint sedge]

may I suggest strongly to Scopely the next time they want to do a mission and an event store 2 part ensemble for players to partake in, theey highly consider never doing the mining for iteem ideea again. On server 12 there was a lvl 14 person who chose to sit on the Bat node the entire time the event store part of the mission to collect 6 items for Dr. Phlox was running. Since Scopely chose to allow such behavior and now refuses to do anything about the fact there are people who now have a mission that is incompletable , I feel it is time to leave the game and move on with life. LLAP to all

[keen mist]

What was the reward for that mission, like 6k trit?

[abstract pollen]

This makes me sad, and face palm 🤦🏼 as I’ve never realized that. I was saving some of the currency to get Hoshi that I could’ve used to finish getting Gladius. 😓

[light sonnet]

It looks like they added the wrong Deanna troi to the Easter event store

[pale kestrel]

surprise surprise surprise

[drifting bridge]

I could scroll up but…I don’t want to. Is AMS/ALB scoring leaderboards broken for a reason or just default scopes?

[dreamy patio]

ams leaderboard has been broke for most of the month, alb works fine

it's being looked into

[solid vector]

Data was wrong too

[light sonnet]

Ty

[ornate geyser]

Wrong Riker, too, then…since he’s the only other EntE officer even available.

[warped ginkgo]

Oof! If I didn't have the bajoran favor I would be fuming right now 😄

[sage hollow]

do we know when the next incursion date is?

[dreamy patio]

5th

[orchid shell]

Has the loot exocomp been fixed or will this be another incursion with the best feature still broken?

[dreamy patio]

no word

[lilac musk]

Given they never ran it in between incursions like they said they would when they fixed it I would imagine it’s still broken

[vague tapir]

So ... In what way am I to infer from this event text that the hostiles I kill need to be a certain level? Just got to 35 a few days ago, so this is the first time the event has come up for me. Popped an exo and sent my ship to autogrind in 33 Fed space. No credit.

Someone in my alliance then notified me the hostiles had to be a higher level, but nobody seems to know exactly what the level cutoff is, because the event text just says "Any Hostile." I know Scopely in no way has their 💩 together, but come on. If you need hostiles of 35+ or whatever, put it on the event. I barely had time to complete before the exo expired because I thought Any Hostile meant Any Hostile. My bad for making assumptions where this game is concerned, but also, the event text needs to be updated.

Rant over.

[proud wing]

There’s a second event, when you have collected 100 Cerritos BPs iirc, that does require 36+ when supported by the Cerritos, maybe they’re thinking of that. Have you tried actually killing a hostile, as in you attacking it? Many of the events don’t score if you let the hostile attack you.

[worldly dune]

Make sure it is a Combat exocomp (exocomps that deal extra damage).

[vague tapir]

I moved up to a 39 system and took care of the event, but I don't see why it should matter who initiates the attack. "Score by destroying hostiles with an active combat exocomp." "Any hostile w/G2(G3,G4,G5) combat CB active." I did that. I had a G4 combat exocomp active, and I was destroying hostiles. It should have counted.

[pale rain]

Anyone else have the problem where ur in the center of a wave by a group of reds. Hit attack on one and ur ship bounces to the outside as far as it could possibly go

[eager crater]

Anyone else having this pop up every few min? To bad im not getting thes rewords everytime.

[void hound]

It happens for me as well on 10 mins chest or mission key from web to appear many times to Collect. Same, would be nice to get them everytime 😄

[odd thorn]

.

[fierce cosmos]

I just want to echo the ridiculousness of limiting the officer shards for the Easter event @cosmic steeple . Instead of using it to get an officer I want, I just get a little closer and am forced to spend the rest on shards I don't need. I'd rather spend them on something useful to me.

[orchid shell]

If they are still broken, Scopely should make an announcement to avoid another incursion event where people are upset that the EC aren't working.

[mental yoke]

No loot exocomp, no care about incursions. Will just throw a 1 day shield up and log off.

[pearl falcon]

Is there a planned or scheduled date where some event start times will line up with others? I know DST happened but it has been a bit.

[proud wing]

Sunday i believe it should

You can blame George W Bush for it

[verbal cedar]

I'd rather blame Scopley

[pearl falcon]

More like Roosevelt. Well for DST anyway

[proud wing]

Dubya messed with the US start and end dates for DST, until then everyone was in sync

[pearl falcon]

Oh... I didnt realize that

[ripe jungle]

Wasn’t the US supposed to go to year-round dst at some point?

[proud wing]

Europe as well, but no one wants to just get on with it

Ofc no idea why some of the events are at 1 time and others are at another, rather than them all moving 3 weeks ago

[ripe jungle]

🤣

[proud wing]

Hen Congress stumbles others get it done?

[pearl falcon]

I live in Washington state, we have to have Congress sign off on ours... at least 3 years and waiting

[burnt girder]

Hmmm, so I noticed that once I hit ops 51, I didn't feel the need to complain as much. Things in game are Soo much easier to get at my ops

[desert laurel]

Except auction officers. 😈

[burnt girder]

True, lol

I accidentally spent 1m lat bring nero to t5 yesterday. Didn't mean to click it, lmao

But worth it I guess, t5 nero can definitely come into clutch

Also events are Soo much easier. At ops 52, I'm not seeing many people in my slbs

So idk

[warped ginkgo]

So was this event just a one time thing they did ? Or is there a chance of it coming back ? I could use some more of those rewards 😆

[fiery compass]

i think that's normally once a month or so

[dreamy patio]

It

's once a month

[warped ginkgo]

Ah okay, just 2 more weeks then 😄 ty

[dreamy patio]

Parabellum once, jelly brawl twice

Lots of 4* gas and 4* explorer parts

[warped ginkgo]

Maybe next season I'll be able to get a jelly , how long do you need to have the territory to get enough bps to build it ?

[dreamy patio]

once a week

[warped ginkgo]

Dam, so if single pulls it would take 2 years ? 😅

[minor cave]

I know I am probably well behind the times here, but when did the Pan crew recruit chest get removed from the Rouge Faction store?

[fiery compass]

for as long as i remember it's been in augment recruit, not rogue recruit

[minor cave]

The was 2 chests, one has Khan and company. but the other was call Outlaw II and it have Pan and his buddies in. Its the Pan crew chest that has gone.

[dreamy patio]

Was never in rogue

[desert laurel]

Pan is an augment. Check the other store.

[warped ginkgo]

They are in augment

[minor cave]

LOL my fail.... 🤣
Been so long since I needed to look I completely forgot

[opal mantle]

That chest has been hugely important to me, great source of transporter patterns

[flat scroll]

And be very expensive in terms of refined iso 🤪🤪🤪 Double pull Epic loot boxes still the best way followed by jelly persuit placing. If you only need a few and cant wait then resort to Territory service

[light elm]

The 5 print pack is manageable cost wise if you keep up with your iso mining and refining, but trying to buy 15 isn’t sustainable. You should be able to get a lot of the prints from the armada chests

[urban pike]

lets say some at least

[wind fog]

I was buying the 5 pack chest, doesn’t take too long to get your jellyfish

[tawdry bough]

Epic armada chest has the chance for a full unlock. You never know....

[sour lotus]

Got a full pull for the jelly! Of course round about a week after i unlocked it via grinding

[exotic hemlock]

ditto

[tawdry bough]

As always: If you unlocked a ship the chances to get bps are higher 😂

[eager wren]

When does the faction hunt start?

[warped ginkgo]

Lol im averaging like 5 bps per double pull on the chest , slowly but surely I guess 😆

[cobalt dew]

event store ... purhcased 5 t'ana shards.. can no get more becuase I' hitting this ? what gives ?

[ripe jungle]

Limit 9, are you trying to pull 5 again?

[cobalt dew]

yes and just realized you can pull the other two but then it magically fails when you go up ... scopely quality... sigh

[severe bridge]

magically fails?

[rigid meteor]

Same thing happened to me till I noticed the limit, cant expect Scopely to allow you to get what you want for free, got to pay for those last few shards

[warped ginkgo]

It's not magically fails, it's the limit. I too tried to get 1 under the limit then pull 5 and got the same thing 🙂 sounds like scopely got smart with their pulls xD

[ripe jungle]

I hope they haven’t fixed the locutus pull 😓

[dreamy patio]

helped me unlock him last time, lol

now just need seven on there

[floral warren]

Hey how come in the Borg event Excretus of Borg icon/avatar isn’t included. I’d love to know why. TheRealBoimler Ltjg

[light elm]

Someday it will be beneficial to max and scrap one, so those BPs will serve you well in the future

[granite shadow]

I wish they would have given us more Janeway shards.

[fiery compass]

they haven't, just pulled 35 shards

[narrow violet]

Not sure if already said. But seriously what is the point? Why not give the rewards in game

[modern topaz]

They need the traffic on their store to support the scam there

[narrow violet]

Well it will be one event I won’t be getting rewards 😂, anything physical outside the game I do not care about so that’s 1 less visitor to their site

[proud wing]

I imagine it’s like the mission key events, to get people to sign up for Scopely accounts. Reward is likely to be something in game.

[scenic kernel]

like one shard for badgey

[upper atlas]

the same max max 5 max?

[fiery compass]

yup

[hallow ember]

"As we all know, Q likes to sometimes pose impossible challenges to test our resolve, so don’t be discouraged if at first you don’t succeed against him." This sounds an awful lot like "we made all the events out of players ranges to participate again, but that's fine cause it's Q doing it, not us"

[modern topaz]

No worries they will listen to your feedback and provide a 99$ package to purchase to lessen te burden of the trial q put on you

[cobalt dew]

the in-game news that is always stuck in "Retrieving..." ... sigh

[weak ore]

….and I was thinking that I might have been a bit hasty in quitting the game 🤣🤣🤣

[echo pier]

Can we get a video for every news release now. A retrieving one should be easy enough. 🙂

[exotic hemlock]

#🌌-galaxy-chat message

[echo pier]

Awesome 🙂

[opal mantle]

Anyone tried this in the Easter egg event store? Max max 3 max?

[ripe jungle]

Doesn’t work

[opal mantle]

Bummer

[fiery compass]

it's at least known to not work with the epics, so presumably not the rares either

[celest relic]

I tried with a rare but wasn’t able to gain any extra shards. 12 it is

[flat scroll]

Congrats, you got Scoplied….

[flat scroll]

M’Benga

[exotic hemlock]

he makes cracking fried/grilled cheese toasties

[rare verge]

Ok where is it?

Oh pst time 🫤😬🤣🤣

So 4pm in normal money

[proud wing]

[exotic hemlock]

what time is that in UTC?

goodness only knows why i fought to get the ingame UTC clock

unreadable purple

flash events and this = nope from me

** returns to annoying my german team mates via deepL**

@cosmic steeple please open up the uncomons HF for new servers

pride aswell - god only knows why they are locked away 😦

why aren't the gay-lasers avaiable for all?

[proud wing]

The “gay-laser” is in the Amalgam store 🌈

[fiery compass]

and currently installed on every ship i use

[exotic hemlock]

i cant get or use it 😦

[fiery compass]

what's stopping you from getting an amalgam?

[exotic hemlock]

ops 25

[fiery compass]

so that's just a "currently can't", then. you'll get there

[proud wing]

Rainbow blasts make my Valdore extra fabulous

[fiery compass]

there's a good chance it's not on my valdore

[exotic hemlock]

i kick cat 💩 from my ships. .......... i ig-nite wiith my sarcassn and hope

[fiery compass]

nope. ah well. the ship hasn't left the drydock yet

[exotic hemlock]

[fiery compass]

[exotic glade]

one enemy will give high scores, trying to work out which one

[mental yoke]

You really want that 4,124 (4/01/24) parasteel? lol

[idle stump]

[serene helm]
