if not go one lower
My guess is you are missing some research. I knocked that 1 out in 1 hostile
very helpful thanks š
i think its different for some people
i have a member he hit the same hostile i did and finished it in 1 go
thats the crew im using, just nesmith instead of janeway
still need 12B apex mitigation per point
are you running your ops level or 1-3 higher
you CAN go a bit higher
so they do more damage
tried that just die faster no more points
i think the 24bil to 1 point is stupid has to be a mistake
yeah that going above your level prob works fine at below 70, but not at 70 and obove
What is the daily Syncopation eventā¦.under 50 ops playersā¦.not seen in the events listingā¦
It is an event that cant be completed in 5 days š¤Ŗ
I used Janeway, Nesmith and Annorax on my 56 Sanctus. killed about 10x 60 VGERs for ~40 points.
this will be painful if you can't do it in one run
126k requires 210 active members per day! WTF scopely! @supple token
What does it look likeā¦screenshot ?
ok this is the best i could come up with after a bunch of trial and error, getting 2-3 points per kill for the daily killing 70 hostiles at ops 70 with my cube. maybe i helps someone else too. im sure its not ideal, but hey...
Yep, need to reduce the amount to apex reduction needed for scoring by about 10x. You are marketing this as a low time investment arc but we are already seeing different with the silents. Might want to look at your other numbers too. Challenging doesnāt have to mean a grind for the person in the room that will say we have to make it challenging. With an apex barrier crew set up a player should be able to complete this inside of the 10 required to kill. I used Janeway annorax Nesmith with Garrett below and chronodefector.
Took 50 kills for me on lvl 72 hostiles with my cube with 2 self repairs, but Iām exceptional. The average joe may have to do double that with many trips to complete. Frustrating for sure. For an easy event.
Another idea
Also add silent juice to these to consolidate the loops
Vger made copies, canāt replicate the silent juice?
just another way to show how much they about their players, playtested for prob 10 minutes with their maxed out dev accounts, looks good, ship it
That like 1 trial per day x 5 days = 500pts per player. You need 250+ active players in an alliance
Okay, I got the Meta event, but what or where is the trial event linked to it that gives the scoring points ?
Part of Vger series bucket (51+ though)
Not sure for 51-
Anyways, not sure Scopely did the math properly⦠so letās wait and see
Can you post screenshot of what the 51+ looks likeā¦
It is a Bucket called Vāger Events
for midops: there will be events that will run on specific days to score the points
The AMS is for 5 days or thats a mistake?
We cant score 126k in 5-6 days
We dont have 250 active players in our alliance (yet)
Thanksā¦that is what I am missingā¦..I only have the one itemā¦.not a bucket listing of events. šš»šš»
In all cases, if it is really for 5 days, no way to complete it, whether you have the bucket or the occasional AS midops events
I honestly think, even if I were actively trying, I couldn't strip more fun out of a game, or add more unnecessary frustration, than Scopely does each arc. IT IS NOT THIS HARD
Will keep an eye šļø out today to see if new update includes these eventsā¦thanks.
stop with the 1 time codes!!! its annoying, its filling up my inbox, sign in, get code, and do the same thing over again....who thought of this??? sheesh
There is a link just below to go back and use the password only to login.
it still emails you the code every time first by default. It doesn't remember you want to use the password
Yeah.... the apex barrier event is kinda insane? Like 7 trips and i'm 20% done with the best crews people have found.
Even with the new ship buff
Thank you, but yeah, it still sends email and still extra clicking ugh
Another day, another broken event
The thing is.. it just means that the testers did not hit 1 single hostile at all. Not one. Because yesterdays event was broke, and todayās is
what is your ops?
Brother it says in the first picture. 69
not your event, your level, second event you need to kill ops+ level hostiles, for the first event you have to mitigate an unreasonable amount of damage with apex barrier
the first number here is always your ops
Last night could kill 61 of new hostilesā¦.today with same ship/crew. nope.
different hostiles
Lol. Youāre telling me this isnāt my event?
Works, but it's still roughly about a point a kill for me, and I need 100.
yeah, thats the problem
i tried a crew where an ally member did the event with one kill. doesnt work for me
I should be mitigating over 50% of the enemies damage between my apex barrier officers. Iām mitigating a TINY fraction of that because they have massive apex shred. If thatās the mechanic, whatever, but it canāt be the mechanic on a day when the daily is mitigate damage with apex barrier
Oh well, managed the Gorn reasonably but cant beat the Silence today
At ops 56 I did it now in ~2.1 runs killing 60s. 2nd and 3rd run had Garret below (apex against battleships). Janeway, Nesmith and Annorax. All because I have no one else doing Apex. I got anywhere from 2-5 event points (136M miti / point) per enemy.
I get making the hostiles hard and requiring "newer" officers or ship, scopley gotta make money somehow. But i dont like the fact that as a brand new ops 71, those hostiles are extremely hard to kill and now even harder with the new enemy types/perks. So since i cannot kill a 71, i am now being punished and unable to even complete the free track for these challanges. i cant even earn the currency to slow drip the ship. let me grind out 3 or 4x as many 70s. why lock us out??
and yet at the same OPS with infact the same top crew at least, I couldnt even take out 1 in a single combat, and I died on the third attack against them tho they were left low LOL
The key issue is having to do the dailies at your ops level from day one. There should be a ramp up mechanic. I bought the ship, I can't do the dailies with a l2 excelsior. And no, i will not be buying an upgrade pack. Scopley is going to have to be okay with getting $120 from me this month. If not, they won't get any from me in subsequent months. Pick your poison Scopley, a slow drip in the same manner you provide progression or $0.
I mean, its just gonna be another dead on arrival addition for me, if I cant actually kill the enemies to get the stuff to get the new ship to make it easier to kill the enemies, I will plain ignore it because im not paying the ridiculous ship prices
yeah. I suppose the ship level (TIer 10 Sanctus) and overall research does matter. THis is jsut the crew that worked for me the best and should help in general as it just a base config for whatever the best ship is you can throw at them.
I donāt actually see anything thatās useful from its refinery? Some PTās? Iām not sure whatās in the strong boxās but this definitely looks skippable
My first power crew I tried yesterday got me 1x 56 enemy / run which I though was crazy
only the efficiency for the serene / reliant, etc for me would be interesting as of now
I mean, isnt the galaxy wide buff from the excelior itself a reason to want it
but yeah, its another case really of, to have any decent way of getting the new ship, you need to have the new ship lol
Scopely isn't satisfied with just the player buying the ship. You also have to buy upgrade packs to level it up. Then they're happy.
I mean, I just ignore it entirely shrugs they make less money off me than they used to when we earnt the ships doing the story arcs most of the time lol
Yes, I used to be a spender (few hundred a month), but what they have done has pushed me to BP only these past few months, and even that might change soon
I actually bought the ship and can't even build it cause they didn't give me enough tritanium. Is that normal?
Oh thanks. Guess they didn't fix it cause this just happened to me
A server mate said she was trying to figure out if the shorting of the mats for the Excelsior pack was really a bug, or $copley testing out if they can get away with making folks spend more. That seems even more likely after reading that. š
<@&509690795536941056> I'd like to suggest an improvement for the apex barrier issue: changing Lieutenant Picard's Apex Barrier ability to work for hostiles above lvl 35. Maybe tie it to player ops level instead?
Otherwise, want to let folks know I'm having decent success with Janeway, Nesmith, Anorak and chrono deflector equipped
The pack gives 9T tritanium raw and 9T in tokens
You have to use the tokens
with all of this lag doing the wave event makes absolutely no sense
today is a rebranded unity event with 200 required points to complete if youre out of directives?
Well your Vāger hostiles today, the silent ones, I figured out how to kill them in two trips with my Titan, but the mitigation daily is BS. I have only 15 of the 100 points needed and Iāve made multiple trips trying different crews. This is what we say when we say youāre tone deaf. I need to mitigate 700 BILLION to finish.
The with talios score doesn't seem to be behaving... Does it have to be strongest ship?
I'm jealous... 15? I'm at 2/100 with the "Kill 10" daily already done
I haven't been able to kill a single one..lol (at least not equal to my ops level)
This might seem like a dumb question. Are we supposed to be able to complete the Resonance Monthly events or is it designed to be a bonus for people that are lucky enough to be in the right place in their development? I'm just trying to figure out if I should be annoyed that these events seem undoable.
Try putting Trip as an officer on the bridge. Reducing crit chance for them really helped
Thanks for sharing this screen shot, game changer
Again, way too difficult for f2p. Consequence is not to spend money, but less fun and engagement
This arc is absolute trash
'm not spending $$ till they straighten the 2pid out and the lag... 1st ship I haven't bought since 2021.. no hostiles bonuses, what good is it
The mitigation daily is misleading in its description. Iāve killed 10 silent hostiles plenty of apex barrier and 0 points.
Your game is bloated and unstable, the lag is insane and the continuing crashes should be embarrassing but itās ignored entirely. What an absolute joke this is
Wave event is almost impossible given the horrible lag right now. Having to use more ciphers than I should have to.
Are they going to fix this scoring on the apex mitigation by the end of the day?
Wouldn't expect that š
This game is a joke anymore, tell peeps you play stfc and they laugh....
Have Borg events but donāt have Borg Store open to get more directives.. makes perfect Scop-sense⦠š
This saved me... at least I can make progress on these silent enemies. (Ops 66, T14 Cube)
I haven't even been able to log on today, just stays stuck on the loading screen
Scopely likes to complicate everything; even their website is so complicated it's inexplicable. Before, you could log in with your code without any problems, but now every time you access the site, you have to receive a code in your email and use it to log in. They have no filter when it comes to doing things wrong.š© š¤®
Underneath where the field for the code is it gives you the possibility to log in with your password..
Yes, but at the top you'll see a message that says: Soon, you'll need to log in using a code you'll receive in your email, no password required. If you no longer have access to your email inbox, contact customer support today.That means it will be mandatory, and the password will disappear.
Haven't noticed that 1 so farā¦š«£
This event just feels bad. It really points out the difference in attention that they provide people by Ops level. I could understand needing to provide more focus to endgame stuff like the Excelsior content, but it honestly doesn't even feel close. The lower Ops are getting a string of events that aren't even capable of being completed. They wanted to aim for events to feel intentional and rewarding. This feels like they were digging around in the back of the fridge for leftovers that might not be moldy and providing Ops 51+ players a catered dinner with the opportunity to pay to sit closer to the devs.
Why in the world does the silent enemies for vger have to have such high hhp 353 billion is ridiculous I don't care how many toons I have maxed no way to destroy a ship with that much hhp
More disappointed than last month
These are crew based hostiles. The right crew makes them easy to kill. Wrong crew and your dead. I did 26 69silents on 1 hull.
They just want you to spend more money leveling up ships and buying their packs that are $99.99 each
So, they āfixā something that wasnāt the thing everyone is complaining about
Lost solo wave credits that donāt regenerate fast enough. The lag needs fixed and people need comped whatever wave vouchers they burned trying to complete it.
Some whale must have complained in the VIP chat that doesn't exist according to Scopely, because they are the only ones they listen to.š¤£
It's like Titanic sinking. Save the rich people first.
Can someone spend the money and figure out how much it costs to make the final milestone on the Upgrade Excelsior SMS?
I genuinely donāt understand who these events are catered to.
I don't think they do either. I think there must be a lot of people still on vacation.
"Following player feedback"?!? Can't you guys just admit you screwed up? The original 126K top milestone was simply not possible to complete.
Apex task at 62 - managed to pull ~15 points a run at the end with TNG Picard/Data/Annorax, +100% dmg exo, and Cerritos buff. It's tedious, but you can get there.
Since arc launch i have had 2 pips i cannot get rid off. Dont fancy spending all my officer depot tokens to see if it them. Did not have the pips before arc launch and never had them so they dont go away. I do now
what was the target for this AMS event before the adjustments were made?
126k
People who want to spend money
Impossibly high
This new daily isnt doable, at least for me, as currently designed. I have killed more than 25... and only got 10/100 points
Use Annorax/Seska/Suder with Rachel Garrett and PIC Hugh below decks. Do not use high crit/iso damage, iso defense or mitigation officers. You want all of your mitigation to be apex barrier and your fights to be many rounds
Trust me if you crew correctly itās a massive difference
Anyone else here not getting new missions?
new missions for what, the arc?
Yes
What's it under in the holodeck?
I checked no voyager missions
Planetary will be no problem
was under tos
Yep just found it lol
Thanks for the help!!!
I should of known it was tos dealing with sulu and all lol my bad
Could someone tell me where to find the actual codes to redeem for each ops level bracket?
RESONANCE ops50 & below,
VGER Ops51+
The 2 pips are linked to the 2 new arc daily goals once I eventually managed to finish the damage goal yesterday and claimed the points 1 of the pips disappeared
Thank you very much Funky
Nope I have done the vger tasks and they are still there.
And about to do them again and they will be there like last night
Judging by the feedback on here even the credit card warriors can't do this stupid new arc
Other bugs my miners in tansogen space warp to vger space when k chnage nodes and I find errors when swapping crews forcing restart. I havent bought the bp this month as I might not be able to co tinue playing of I cant chnage crews
Well that worked for me and my alliance mates yesterday and im not about to make another 100 runs to complete today's goal to take a screenshot š¤£
Cant change crews so cant do anything now
Well.chnaged crews it was a an error on my parts. Forgot to repair a ship which officers where coming from.
It take two run for me to complete the dalies.
The whales on my server are somewhere between 2nd and 3rd milestone on the heroic sms. About halfway to 4th milestone ~300⬠spent on upgrade packs.
Will the VGER Hurak be considered "Invading Entities" as the Hurak were previously?
Around 600ā¬
Gross
Gets you around T7
What did I do last night the vger damage daily was done ina hand ful of runs. Tonight it taking agaes
They different hostiles lol
we got this!
What they change daily?
Its a cycke of 3 different ones. Gorn > silent > hurrak.
<@&509690795536941056> the talios bonus points aren't working, even on a run with just a talios, fyi
Same
That's 0/2 on events being accurate so far this cycle...
I claimed and spent my directives before we even knew this event would come around. how am I expected to complete this?
Well i ha e a crew that can kill in the 68 vger system for the daily but it would be 100s of hostiles to finish it. About 5 or 6 hostiles to score 7 billion mitigated damage. So this arc is poop maybe it a full serve and ignore
i would say i'm an above average player as far as researches and artifacts and officers are concerned, anything apex barrier i've done except i'm f2p so don't have godsend. i can barely scrape together a point for the silent daily
its taking at least 3 to 4 kills just to get one point... and i need 100.. no thank you
I can shoot quite a few 68s. May 50 per hull but that about 4 points maybe 6. Not enought
i'm getting handfuls of 70's when i have no business up there and watching people in 50 bil krenchas dying before i do
Anyone here know what it takes to unlock seska in the dti faction store? Mine says "unlocks at" and nothing else
do you have the ship
The relativity
Ahh nope don't have that either lol thank you for the help
have to click your buttons
I click a lot i just have better use for that loot besides the ship right now lol
i thought relativity was just 2 bp's per day with zero loot
I made a good attempt amd completed half the daily. Its obviously p2w daily.
I did it. I finished the stupid ass apex barrier daily. I'm never doing it again. It cost me 125K sigma trit in repairs.
I tried 8 different crews. Some didn't last 1 single hostile, some lasted 8, but scored almost no points.
And i'm definitely not buying a weekly pass if getting all the rewards requires me doing that every 3 days. HELL no
POOP ARC thats it, there is not otherway to describe it
It's really not though, the concept of rotating hostiles that you have to crew creatively for, that present a not-impossible challenge is spot on. The ship has utility in PVE and PVP and the loops around the actual ship don't seem bad. The bones of this arc are some of the best in like 6+ months. The tuning needs help at a few inflection points along the power curve. The only really awful part is the tasks associated with progressing the weekly rewards.
I like that the hostiles reward having built out a bunch of different officers, as opposed to the outposts which, if you have 3-4 ships to use, you literally don't even have enough officers that have an impact on the hostiles. *that is truly stupid
it is if you have not whaled your way through the game, many f2p cant even do the challenges cos 1 they didnt pay for maxed ships or 2. pay for officers. its a massive paywall arc so POOP assesment still stands. the game is no longer fun to play tbh, the whales with there ops 71+ ships can easily fly about and blap players still in their ops 40s. they have ships so powerful they can now one shot them with their miners again. While i get scopley needs to make money, but this arc feels like are milking their players into buying a ship that once this arc is done will have little use.
well, if you bought godsend CT or if you bought squall, odds are this event wasnt too bad. squall you would have a head start on the refinery and be able to quickly get the 3 artifacts for apex barrier
however. for those of us that didn't do that, not so great
Was the 'Easy' track challenge today supposed to be so painful? 205M mitigated damage from Apex barrier for 1 point and 100 points needed?
short answer is yes
i bought neither, still dont mine transogen, no interest in it, didnt buy CT either
𤣠especially considering the 'Hard' challenge was to kill 10 hostiles
the bones of this arc are multiple paywalls and a 100 day drip preventing you from getting anything good
You can get 5 extra days of rewards that you turn in for huge boosts toward progress towards recently premium now f2p ships
What you are saying is just untrue
you get 500 challenge coins a day, you need 500 a day for the excelsior bps. In 100 days we'll get all sorts of good stuff, but until then its a 100 days of slow drip and paywalls
And in 100 days a lot of those other specialty ships will be maxed already anyway
you almost get 2 extra pulls a week of the good stuff from the weekly rewards so I'll give you that, though that's probably better saved for compensating for garbage daily's like todays
luckily the serene squall is really slow to tier up so I'll still be needing those parts, plus the vengeance stuff in the future
for the apex barrier challenge I was able to get 10+ points per hull at ops 65 using pike, annorax, seska with godsend and agony booth equipped on a 60 enterprise that had full hull plating. garret, mccoy, paris, wok carol, pic hugh, kim, joachim. aiming for 80+ rounds of combat. evisc/discovery for the warp range
I can say personally, the Ops 20-50 Resonance experience has sucked. We are on Day 2 of the events not actually being designed correctly. It's great to see there is almost no point to engaging with the new content because you can't even score in the events.
Hi š
James Bond swears by Naga Delvos below deck for saving on repair costs. (Just for info)
When is the next alliance tournement?
Uggg I give, up just doing dailies, so disappointed in latest arc, maybe one day they will just give us the new ships so we can compete and have a fun experience.
I hit 11 points and it just stopped scoring for me, finished the kill daily but can't get close to the other one. Some in my alliance finished with one kill of their ops when others struggle to get a single point
You have to look at new arcs like they are "early access" buggy pay to play garbage previews of what most of us will be playing in 3 months.
lower ops have a bit less problems finishing the apex barrier event while higher ops cant do it without sending, exploding and repairing hundreds of times...
Ftp ops 67, juice isn't worth the squeeze to blow up my ships 100x. No thanks.
I've even gone 100 rounds and still can't get a point when I'm mitigating a few hundred mil per shot, something is definitely wrong with it
In 100 days we will have two or three more new specialty ships and/or buildings and all this currently will be just more bloat
I asked google gemini, what do you think of the new arc of Starfleet Command game, here is it's response haha
crap
<@&509690795536941056> was just chatting with another in my alliance, and we realised you no longer provide a calender of events for arcs anymore.
Is there a reason why?
this arc just crap no way to score cosistently crap crap crap not even doing the arc
They usually run at the end of a month on a wednesday.
AI is only good as the human information that is riddled with.
Use AI in a way that is fun... like making them play games 
They have massive apex shred
I killed one. Don't know how but it hasn't happened again yet.
I get that, but if people are having to spend 100 hulls to complete a daily that is supposed to take 10 mins then something is wrong. Killing them should be the more difficult task.
Oh I 100% agree, i did tons of testing to prove it out to people earlier
i asked gemini how to improve the game here is it's response
i asked Gemini what would it suggest for the next arc here is it's response
Scopely once said they were tracking playtime required to daily compete and complete. This arc is a huge add to daily grind, and itās a different grind every day. Time commitment is going to loose them players in large numbers - or folks may just ignore this arc.
Second, arc content used to be rolled out slowly so players could learn and adapt new grinds into their routine. This arc felt like a dump truck all at once. No gradual anything.
i've been saying that for quality of life arc forever. just release skins for old ships instead of new ships. scopely gonna sue gemini tho for making too much sense
this was the only way i was able to complete the silent event. 3-4 points per ship. tried for 6 hours previous to that with however many crews were suggested
Introducing!: the āQuality of Lifeā Packā¦..just $99
soooooooooold
We have players under ops 40 doing this event saying solos & expansion cubes donāt score - anyone else?
Considering there are 5 separate types of armadas considered "borg" armadas, scopely either needs to clarify in event text or let them all count
Apparently it all works - probably just lag for some will get them to restart game
Iām getting points for that event from Borg spheres at least.
Though Iām not getting the points I should be for using the Talios (getting the non-Talios amount)
So, if Outposts are always on, but the events and battle passes are run on a limited schedule, isnāt that schedule going to cause a bottleneck of people trying to run the Outposts?
Just asking, Ops 42, donāt have ship ( still trying to acquire ), no directives. How are we suspenseful to complete event?
other members in your alliance starting them
They dont want to start low level ones, So no help there
warp favor for the nx-01 so you can reach higher ones
Still not far enough, For me a very poorly thought out event, like yesterday, If you don't have the ship, have to sit them out
i think rips works in continuum space, as opposed to krenim space
Awesome.. its FKR and Xindi only now.. Gee Thanks.. so much for an event that gave a reason to do Dominion and Borg Solos..
they solved that by making sure nobody has directives š
Cuse me what are the promo codes this month?
Where are the V'Ger Gorn Ships? In Teal Keres only the V'ger Silents are still there and its 10 minutes after reset.
50+ code was VGER
what is the under 50 code?
RESONANCE
Thank you.
So yesterday you ran a PVP event that was Use a Revenant to fight Revenants for points.. and the big payout was Revenant Data Cores that you use to get Blueprints for a Revenant.
Do you guys even look at events before you put them out?
I mean just wow guys. wow.
Different systems have different hostiles
I don't think that's correct. The hostiles are supposed to change each day at reset. My designated system doesn't have the hostiles that match my daily description.
Iāve just been up to do my daily which is Gorn, they were in the system above my OPs level and scored for both tasks
Yes, my alliance memebers are willing to start them. and rift me to where ever,
but i just did the math. they have to start 48 armadas for me to complete this task. this is INSANE .
Just WOW scopley. WOW.
i say again,
W O W ..
There are some crossover days
vger daily says gorn but the lvl 60 system still has silent hostilesā¦
also will we be comp for the 60 system having the wrong hostiles on tuesday?
Iya-9
We scoppely to remove this new daily piece of garbage. With out the new ship you can't meet the requirements
Vger gorn question: how do you kill them at your ops level?
I'm 71, have a 26 billion cube and a 40 billion ent-E. I can only take about 1/15th of the 71 vger gorn hull per hit.
Is there a super effective crew against these like how snw mbenga, seska, trip worked wonders on the vger silent xindi?
How is that supposed to work for Ops 35-41 for the Solo Armadas?
I got an ops 70 guy with a 25 bil cube hitting 71ās today
Was it the vger gor or the vger silent? I used my cube for the vger silent with Trip and got that onw done. I'm having trouble with the vger gorn.
Ooh well, thereās your issue. actual hostiles are still silent and not gorn, scopely has created a new new reset for dailyās
You have to wait til event reset tomorrow to do your daily
Because 𤷠makes no sense to have a new reset
Turn on the Gorn faucet
There is not one single thing that resets at the same time as these vger dailyās. I really do want an explanation
But itās just a visual glitch, itās not the hostiles, but they still made it reset at a different time than anything else
All I see is Silents in the 69 system, killed some and the battle log is Silents, itās not a visual thing. No Gorn ships and no points scored.
So why Vger Gorn again and npt hurrak? Is it random?š¤£
There's a schedual in the patch notes (i didn't check to see if they're actually following it) edit: they are, gorn thursdays
The cycle hasn't made its way through yet. It might just be a different pattern.
Vāger Hurak Hostiles: Mondays and Fridays
Vāger Gorn Hunters: Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays
Vāger Silent Hostiles: Wednesdays and Saturdays
Vāger Fighters: Available seven days a week
They are still spawning as Silents, even though the daily says Gorn
Should call it Scrambled Eggs š
How do we complete the daily for Gorn with Silents in all the systems?
Kill one and see if it scores.
Iso damage didn't score...
some systems have gorn but not the 65 im supposed to be in
How do you get the Resonance Code Promotion??
Lower level players ops 20-50 can use the redeem code in-game. Press the claim button and the entry point is to the far right.
What is the redeem code??
Resonance
Thank you!! š
Still no gorn... great reset working awesome!
is there anyone online that can help me out please i haveing issuse and tried to contact scoply but getting stopped at every attempt
Im level 50 so dont have to worry about this garbage. Nothing for me in the BP, no new officers, just revanant upgrade stuff which im really not interested in. Easy pass on the BP, so nicely done scoply for alianating lower levels too...
You can always use the email option in #š½-how-to-contact-support
But what's the issue?
ill message you dierectly
Listen. There is a major issue with the resets of the vger events, and it affects certain servers. But it also means you lose time on doing events
Stay calm and move on, I almost guarantee there will be a fix or comp tomorrow
Why do I have to go kill xindi? Making g6+ folks go grind g5 stuff is dumb.
The continuity of keeping things upgraded and relevant in this game is really lacking.
Kill 20 xindi or whatever to get g6 mats and do around the curve, itās not as bad as other stuff
Thats the normal borg armadas. The ones you do during mega cube
Lol, do you still do the exchange stuff?
Where do I apply to be a mod? Iāve only been banned 3 times
I started again for command badges yes
Lol
That mess hall 99 was kind of a drain. Youāll see
You should have hundreds from g5 madas....
Youāll see lol
Itās actually rares as well
Epics dont provide badges so, something I donāt trust about your statements
Im ops 80
see how that works
G5, g4 whatever it was.... they are abundant.... eclips should have been archived ages ago.
No epic chest provides badges
G5 rare, g4 rare
But yes, Iāll agree Stella should be archived. I think that was being discussed for like 3 months from now
Why are you stuck on epic? G5, g4 armadas... did it specifically say an epic?
Well. Youāre right and Iām sorry, I thought your original message said epic
I dont remember which click it was... was one of those dumb things that are irrelevant n I w.
And youāre also right not to do eclipse stuff. But for a moment I did need command badges
There is too much 'stuff' in this game that becomes too specific.
Hey do apex resist.... but sorry we havent updated that officer search in years since we got a pat on the back for that QOL update.
NO FOLLOW THROUGH ON ANYTHING.
Is anyone else experiencing scoring issues with the Breaking the Formation event? Example, if you're using a Talios on your solo armada, and you win, it should net 12,500 pts per run, times 12 runs, for the 150k required for the event. I have had to run about 20 just to complete the event.
can any one else find vindicator thursday event, i dont see it
Starts at reset
Pls dont crosspost.
posting in multiple channels the same question...
Kill "Gorn" with ISO in iya-9. The only hostiles in that system are NOT Gorn. Even if/when I kill a hostile here (with an ISO crew), I dont get any points. What am I missing? (Found Gorn crews in Lecio, but those arent counting for points)
š¹ Youāre beta tester.
...i think we all are at this point.
š
the listed system is only the minimum level, you can go to higher level systems to do it (I did mine in Valay Cetra)
Did you buy the new ship and max it out?
If you cant kill same ops V'Ger Gorn ships you're missing something
Be it research power or crewing
Show us what's happening in your fights and we can help
Same msg in several channels
this game is so weird. I went to the other L60 system (Praetbria) and voila ā Gorn. I killed one and got 100 points and completed the daily. Yesterday, I had to blow up 100 ships for 100 points. ...whatever. LOL.
Annorex as cap works good
I'll try and see how it goes for a baseline
Its a blooody thin line to figgering this out..
yesterday's mission with the silent was to mitigate damage with apex barrier and had some unreasonable numbers, today's is to deal isolytic damage with more achievable goals
you need Hull breach. either slot Torres somewhere or use one of the CT
used the same crew on both events
Wok joachim seems to be pretty high .. of speed i mean don't see him doing anything in the log
is that joachim t4?
respawn rates suckā¦.
that neither looks like a maxed seska, suder, annorax or joachim š
well suder maybe
yeah that's where i was going. those stats all seem super low
He does not appear in the log below deck because he directly modifies the stats of the ship. If you look at the details tab on the ship you can see the isolytic defense going up when you slot him.
@cosmic steeple Any word on when this lag issue will be resolved.
Everything that i am trying to do is delayed by at least 5 seconds or more.
Trying to play atm is really frustrating.
Lag has been extra horrible since the arc startedā¦
Ya still need seska and annorax maxed
The Laggggg on Server 30 is ridiculous!!!!!!
<@&509690795536941056> THIS DOESNT WORK
I asked two days ago how you think we will be able to do the Mega Cube event!!!
You said directives will be provided
WE GOT NOTHING
The only gift chest we got was for 500 Expansion Cube directives!!!
Good job !!!
oh it didn't look like that, joachim on my ship with lower stat% boost is 4.5m
level him up
aaah that's why
Please, Fix, The. Spawn. Rate. Of. The. New. Hostiles. If. Engagement. Is. Expected.
Thanks..
try chang
where are new hostiles ?
You can't stop the enemy's isoDef, and zeroes in the log are a feature of G6e ships improperly displaying what's happening.
My shields never went down so seska tier is fine. Just no idea what else to do here. Not doing enough dmg to kill this thing more than 1 time per max buffed hull
spawn rate on these new hostiles needs sorting ... 5 per system is really not enough
well done thought scopley could get worse i was wrong. Fancy bringing in new hostiles that rarely respawn, I mean you shoud rename them scared to show up vgers, another bull idea from people who really havnt got a clue
Happy New Year from Scopely yāall šššš
also costing me loads of buffs and repairs to kill 1 hostile when i need 10, wide berth me thinks, wide berth on this game after 4 years the way its going. they need to write a book. how to ruin a game in a year, scopley wins the oscar
How about zero per system instead
Honestly, the spawn rates of the VGER hostiles are too low for a SLB...
Most systems are constantly empty
The Borg mega cube event is broken. I spent my directives and got nothing in return. Other display shows expansion directives as the reward.
from what i saw earlier, you have to kill an expansion cube
start an expansion cube*
yes the Scoring text is wrong, you need to start a expansion cube to finish this one
RIP in peace anyone that spends megacube directives on that expecting to get them back
The loc was incorrect and should be fixed soon.
Well vger systems empty of hostiles for me too. Taking to long to complete the sms. The game is frustrating again. Perhaps scopley should consider pulling events if the mechanic to work it is broken. And 8 hostiles per system is not enough. The whole mechanic is broken
was same issue with reliant to start, zero lessons learned
A comp chest for megacube directives has gone out
Anyone having scoring issues with the apex event today, specifically the armada part
did you join the event?
Worked fine for me. Did you remember to "join" before you started the armadas?
Not that event, the apex hunter event
looks good, and no lag at the moment
How are we supposed to do the Expansion Cubes if we never received any directives? I'm legitimately confused with what is going on with this event. This would mean my alliance needs to start 9-24 of these things to carry me depending on how well we perform.
can get the directives from doing borg solo armadas
I only got 100 directives for the solos.
no talios im assuming?
Yeah, does that make this impossible?
practically, yeah. youll need multiple talios' to take down the expansion cube anyways. the loop is you complete 1 borg solo armada to get a buff on your talios that debuffs the expansion cubes weapon, stacking up to 7 times (12% per talios in the armada, up to 84%), otherwise the expansion cubes are really difficult
so even 7 vidars probably wouldnt be able to do the easiest one
That's stupid. Why would they even give me this if the goal for Resonance is earn the Talios?
Yeah, I'm 36
yeah, talios can be obtained well before that normally once the vidar is maxed.
which I highly recommend focusing on. the vidar archive claim is really great and the borg solo armada exchanges in the borg tech refinery are really good
actually correction not well before that, but at shipyard 35.
It took me a bit to get the Vi'dar and I jumped up ops pretty quick thanks to the compensation gifts, so my Vidar is only tier 4 right now. I honestly would rather get the upgrade stuff for the Vi'dar than the Talios.
It's definitely on-brand for this game to shove me into situations where I missed the message with what I should be focusing on so I am always behind and can't participate in events.
how should I get points for the SLB without enmies to kill.
Has the dodgys issued a promo code yet?
LOL @ seeing people running the mega cubes thinking its for the event now that they got a free gift of the directives š
because they didn't clear their localization and have the old text that called for megacubes
Is Federation deep space broken?
Honestly I can't figure this out. Supposedly the loading times are affected by busy servers, but then when information isn't accurate because people didn't clear localization. Which is it? If it's slow because the servers are busy, that means the data is loaded from Scopely, therefore clear loc shouldn't be needed. If the data is on our local devices, there's no reason why busy servers would slow the game down so much. It can't really be both.
Surely Scopely isn't copying data from one place on their system to another place on their system. Why would you ever do that?
I still have 80 blue particle accelerators and over 6M eye patches. I guess those are going to clog my inventory forever.... Please lower the blue particle requirement to 10 and lower the eye patches too 500K and then give us 1 gold pressed latinum for each blue particle left.
you mean 6m scrap, 6m eye patches would be easy to spend
How come im only getting 100 out post directives per day per claim in out post store. The 300 per day in gifts has vanished. Currently i cant get enough out post directives to do anything with
Intended but stupid. They changed it with the latest patch
thats the plan. make sure it slow so that people spend
that's their plan, but it never works, it'll just become another (half)dead feature
I'm a player in G5 and I dont bother participating in Distinction Extinction anymore because the brackets are wide open and i have to compete with players with G6 cubes. I can't compete. Please break up the G5 and G6 brackets so that this event is more equitable. I used to enjoy ranking in this event in G4, and getting points for Ahead of the Curve.
60 is arguably the best spot for that event with the cheesing you can do
the rewards are so bad that most ops65+ dont bother with that event. the time required to charge and beam hostiles for t15+ cube (even with solo armadas and the glitch scoring with full cargo) is not worth it.
i did that event once to annoy the person that botted their way through it, but the rewards are less than what i get daily for free
So the half decent outpost store has become meh. Cant get the stuff for sisko now. Or anything else no point in doing any ever again
I was mostly doing the event to get the extra Ahead of the Curve points.
not needed if you just do your smses
yes, but getting extra allowed for early completion, and a buffer in case i missed stuff
the rewards are so inconsequential i don't really care about that tbh
How how so? Im OPS 60 and I cant compete with the OPS 67 currently at 1st in my bracket.
Take cube to dominion solo armadas, kill one, beam two hostiles rinse and repeat. Every armada gives you points for the amount of TD in your cargo. G6 cubes canāt load up on a single armada there anymore
Ill give that a try, thanks
Send G6 cube to new Sulliban 62 or even 66 (if your hazard resistance is high enough) and autogrind and beam there
Yeah the hazard part is an issue, but still canāt compete without doing armadas
Once the cube is T15+, Dom 60 take forever to charge it up, so Sulliban becomes necessary
yeah that's why i said 60 is a sweetspot
Independent archive, Nova building, DTI building , I have noticed that in the last couple of special building events these three buildings were not included in the event to gain points. going forward is that going to be permanent or should I just put my buildings up?
Also I want to put Sesku up now they have a slider But is there going to be a DTI spend credit event.
Does anyone know if this is the case, before I get 400 Sesku office shards?
there's been zero indication that they are adding things they removed back into CotA, but its also less than a week away if you want to wait
I cannot believe that Scopley put out an new hostile with requiremsnts to kill your ops lvl...they said they heard they were too strong...and their only fix is to SELL 2 more officers. Real good job there.
<@&509690795536941056> I'm having trouble reconciling these two statements. The one from the in game announcement makes it sound like top 3 of each V'ger Invasion - SLB will qualify, for potentially 9 people from each level range per server. But the V'ger Invasions Qualifier Meta - SLB says only the top 3 of it will qualify. I'm currently winning my Invasion SLB quite handily, will I be good qualified for the tournament or do I need to place well the next two weeks to make sure I place in the Qualifier Meta SLB?
how the new ship has nothing to do with these tournement slbs blows my mind... there should be a bonus score for killing the cloaked ones... your not selling your ship lol
epic transogen systems
I'm so glad Scopely took the time to give us Alliance Applications instead of working on the bugs, lagggg and crashes
e.g. EU 47 server so 141-423 participatns in rslb
don't cross post
Wow their idea of a fix is to lower the requirement of the daily.. What they should do is make defeating the silent hostiles more manageable by lowering the power and hhp
Hard to believe people having a hard time with the VGER events, look at what each of the three ships can do and use officers that counter those buffs they get. Pretty simple and Iām a player who screws some events up. Have to READ the event, not cry cause you made a bad build or over reached on your ops vs ships and research.
Ok I'm ops 64 my negh var is t8 and the only crew I have that gets a partial victory is annorax tucker seska lvl 64 vger silent hostiles have almost 400 billion hhp even if I get the shields down no way for me to get a kill
Have no fear commanders, for those that spent way more directives than necessary for the Resonance Borg Solo event... they'll give you 100 directives as a "I'm sorry"
What's hard to believe is that there are players like you who, instead of helping those who have problems, dedicate yourself to criticizing nonsense and saying things that are neither constructive nor useful. If you're going to say what you said, you might as well not say anything at all.
Is there a treasury event this arc for the resonance arc for those plays below ops 51+, as I know that there is one for the v'ger arc guys
It certainly feels more and more like it for us lower ops players
silents are fine, it was the absurd amount of mitigation needed for each point that was the problem, hopefully 90% is enough of a reduction
I can't get a kill only partial. No problem with the mitigation
Scoring just fine with mitigation not scoring at all in assault
both the hurak damage and the gorn iso damage challenges could be done in a single fight, while people were making crews designed to not kill the silents so they could get that challenge done in under a hundred fights. One of those is not like the other
Id rather get a kill
I'm already going 100 rounds
And no I don't have any of the no nos on my crew
that's probably more of an account problem and something you are lacking in research/crews/ships, not a systemic problem like the absurd mitigation requirement of the old challenge
but it was fun
Level 64 silent hostiles have over 300 billion hhp
I wouldn't mind actual challenges like that, if it was more consistently challenging for all levels
Has anyone found a better bridge crew than full synergy Annorax?
Annorax tucker seska
I don't know what ops you are, but I was hitting the 64s myself at ops 60, and needed dozens to finish the challenge
yeah i was done in one hit, was almost mad when others could test around with a counter :/
ops 62, but strong for that level and not struggling at all. Just wondering of there is something better. I can hunt 3 or 4 dozen 64s before I blow up.
You talking about silent hostiles?????
Hurak today. Silents bridge of Janeway/Seska/Trip really works
I'll give it a try
VGER silents, that is
You shouldn't be getting partials. If you are, then it means you're not addressing the enemy's ship abilities. You need strong ramping or true damage (like burning) to outpace the apex barrier.
Finally got my rot to t12 will try it tomorrow
Using neelix will end any 100 round fight much earlier.
Have you compared that crew to full synergy annorax?
Tried the full synergy about the same results
This crew has been perfect for me here.
What ship
rotarran I am level 62.
Trip Tucker has no capt ability. might as well swap annorax into the capt chair for more loot.
Also, swapping tendi out for Quasi would help. These hostiles have plenty of apex barrier to shred.
In my case, getting zero damage when hit with crits, so seems like the extra hull repair from Suder is better. Check your battle report for crit damage on your ship. Apparently the VGER Hurak don;t have critical damage floor.
I don't have Officer Quasi
Same crew with hurak on my negh var at least getting kills
Too bad there isn't an officer that makes more crits on your ship like Pan makes hull breaches š
Full crew for my t12 rot
if you have a g5 epic ship that is even half as strong as your Negh Var you might get better results
I like that crew very much except that Toli is no help. He just speeds up your warp. SNW Chapel would bring you some more damage in that seat.
Forgot I had roli on there for warp speed
Before the vger crap
Toli
I will try this set up tomorrow if it is vger silent hostiles again
i have completed all Trials and all challenge dailies we had so far. Shouldn't the two metas be at 800 points?
Mine are at 800, you either missed one or it didnāt register. Best to ask support
I'm pretty sure I completed all.....
Like I said support. Theyāll either tell you you forgot one or will give you the extra points
Well let's see what they answer this time....last time I did not get points for an event, Support told me I hallucinated and my screenshots were fake ....
The vger's champion bracketing is kinda messed up. 70s are included with G6 players instead of G7, even though there's a MASSIVE power differential between 69-70, and very little between 70-72
No real incentive for most of G6 to try when the scoring hugely rewards level of hostile killed and a level 70 can have a ship 10x as powerful as any other player 69 and below <@&509690795536941056>
are sub OPS51 players just like supposed to sit here and twiddle our thumbs at the severe lack of content (again!!!)?
Isn't there ship xp missing?
asked earlier, said it was intended
Erm...why is this system full of 55 traders?
they're all full of traders, the chasers are the ships needed to kill for the event
What crew for Hurak Vger at 60 systems? My DāDeridex is t4 and the most powerful
Since this arc started with the Challenge Track... I've completed all tasks that have been required and only have 1550 pts... there is 2 days left and the total amount for the goal is 2800 pts. Can <@&509690795536941056> or someone explain to me how I can accomplish this?
Was doing alright in arena. Now can't wrap into the main system
Guessing my base is stuck in limbo
I think yea only can get to epic, the legendary is $. Still a lot to get second epic though.
Is the Hurak Assault daily broken? I tried vāger hostiles at my level, and got no points, same with ones above my level
So this is giving 1 point per hostile killed, instead of the damage mitigation points. Good job scopely.
Nah. I have been getting multiple points per kill on this. Stack your barrier
bro, i've literally killed 14 hostiles, and gotten 14 points. Even by ACCIDENT, I should have finished the event
been averaging 4-5 points per kill
Bear in mind that this was compared to last time at 1-2 points a kill
what crew did you use?
trip janeway annorax
will try that
I went for pure damage reduction early on with Annorax/Trip/Phlox
i was leaning towards annorax/phlox/tucker as well. i'll try both
10 kills......34 points. Worse than first day
This will vary from ship to ship. I am using a cube at ops 69. Can kill 70s
lvl 66 cube
this has gotten ridiculous. Hit a 72 to punch up and get more apex, only got 10 points
and this is not even the "hard" challenge that requires you to actually kill the hostiles at your level.
click on the "i" the description icon... it tells you how much apex barrier mitigation needs to be done before earning points
it took me 34 hostiles at level 71 to finish this with annorax and godsend loaded.
This says I apex barriered 6B in this one battle. The challenge only requires 2B total
Quickā¦which is supposed to be the easy vs hard daily? 𤪠this still makes no sense.
don't worry. they "fixed" it
exactly same for me, before "fix" I finished the 100 event in 1 hostile... now need 30???
It's 2B for 1 point
No promo code?
20-50 resonance 51+ vger
Is this right. I have done the vger dailes except the one with the silent vger hostiles where I could not mange 100 point. Got 52 then gave up. But my challenge track is like this.
There doesnt seem to enough time to finish it even if I did manage the impossible silents
The hurak hostiles where easy
Youāre only supposed to get to milestone 5 if you didnāt buy the excelsior
Next two are for people who got the ship
Apex scoring is worse now
it's defo subtracted.....Wednesday I needed 5B apex mitigation per point, now its 540M
@cosmic steeple hi, a bit of confusion about the Vger tourneyā¦
The posts in calendar and here:
#ā-official-announcements message
⦠suggest that the top three players from EACH of the three qualifiers go thru to the finals..
OTOH the Qualifier Meta event description, and its long timer, seem to suggest that it will be the top three finishers for the entire meta event that will go thru..
Could you clarify please? š»
this is the crew i've been using as an apex barrier sink, of everything I tried this maxxed me out at 44 rounds and 3 points at my level, and I sort of forgot I could move up for that part of the daily and have already changed to a silent punch-up crew for the slb
Uhā¦lieutenant Picard only works for hostiles below 31 I believe ⦠what ops are you?
well, fair point lol, idk what i was thinkign there
still not sure anything else would get me more rounds and i'm basically taking everythign to apex already, maybe annorax would make a differnece if i did punch up
Under level 35 my apologies
They did change the requirements so it should be a lot easier for you this time around
I honestly didn't have a hard time last time, I believe I did punch up that time and it was like 30ish hostiles and I needed like 17 for hostiles anyway. II'm OPS 53 btw, idk if it was harder for people higher up.
The hardest part is the giant systems with liek 6 hostiles. wth
Except that some of us who bought the ship can't do the normal tasks and still can't get to that milestone anyway š¤£
Is there anything that's gonna be done about the lower Ops event (20-50) Expansion Cube event that was not only descripted wrong, fixed and posted about, but also the accompanying incorrect scoring on that event? Are you really going to ignore that? For reals? Are you nuts or just don't care Scopely? I vote a bit of both seeing what I have lately.
Can I ask a question are these events supposed to be a competition or just a spend event?
usually a bit of both, but grind slbs you can win without paying
I'm not sure, but defaulting to Scopely's mindset. I'd say get your wallet out. š«£
No its a spend event really because anyone 1 with more strength will win everytime
I'll run out of enemies before I can catch then
ah you're g7, then it's more spend yeah
Them*
They've lost the plot, or maybe my plot is that different. Could be either. Since Savvy bought them out it has gotten worse though. Oh yeah. I'm either a racist or a realist. One of the two anyway. š¤£
@polar patio Then dont call it a points event its really a spend event
doesn't mean it's 100% spend. Even the biggest ship won't win if they only kill one ship š¤·
Like I said. Get your wallet out.
I spent hours to catch people in event only to run out of enemies
Nah. Nah. More spend means more. More always. š¤£
Not giving them money only to loose
Not š
what level hostiles are you grinding?
𤣠Understood.
and the fat whale?
Im just not the strongest so I loose in most events because I can't spend half a mil
I'm keenly interested in understanding why folks do the things they do. To better understand myself. This Discord server borks all that up. Badly. š¤£
And this is why the game has lost most of there players because its not a game its a Scopely investment bank
don't have to be the strongest if you grind enough
I run out of enemies
but i still want to know what your fat whale is hitting
It truly is just that. No doubt.
if my suspicions are right there have been WAY worse things to complain about than this event
Scopely investment bank before they pull a certain plug. I've never been more convinced of that than in the last couple of months.
I feel sorry for the ones who keep spending not realizing there wasting money I was one of them then I woke up
aggregation for example: pay 100⬠to farm them endlessly or kill one and die
You only can kill 2500 enemies then they dont count
or augment, where i with my dderi had to compete with krenchas
that's just loot, it'll still work for slbs
Guy above me doubled my score and I ran out of enemies to score
I'm okay except for certain scoring events that are coded wrong or are meant to push folks my Ops level out. I'm Ops 47. I see you Scopely and your intentions. You're super dumb. Just saying. I have better Corporate perseverance and vision than you do. That's pretty sad. š¤·āāļøš
If it's not an slb that says "acquire loot" it will.
I was first in the in the rep event then ran out of enemies so guy below past me
When i was still doing mega cube i used to hit the hostile limit at 16-17pm and still scored
yeah rep is loot
Once the Krill die? So will the Whales and you're actively killing them now even. This is the death throes of a game folks.
Yup so now I loose because the guy that past me kills higher enemies
Its not a competition
you can still get points from the dti, dailies or other exchanges
Its who spent the most
OMG. I lost an SLB. Whatever will I do?
No
Life isn't worth living now. š
Its only enemy kills
ah ok, different rep events in g7 then
Guys and Gals. See the bigger picture. Please.
Have the dailyās changed? Killed x4 lv69s and only 20 points on daily
Its the game isn't worth playing unless you spend lots
but still, you're telling me you actively killed 2500 71/72s with rep boosts?
Yes
Sigh..... out...
that's some dedication if you actually did that. i only hit the limit with multiple ships or autogrinding
Well i guess ill stop competing in events then im not wasting my time anymore
you still gets rewards for second, don't you?
then you didn't kill 2500 hostiles for rep after all
I was doing events if I cant do them what's the point
I can't win any really
If there is a big event like vger tournament then stop the limit
or just ignore the rep one and only gor for vger?
Or your not challenging anyone you just trying to get people to spend
set priorities
Its not fair that the same 3 people win almost all the events
life isn't fair, complaining abou it doesn't change that
and this game was never fair
There isn't any priority because it dont matter if your not the top 3 players
True dat
This is why so many have left the gane
Game*
if you want to win events either pay more, play better or camp to get out of their brackets
I can't now its too late I give up its just not a game anymore
Still a game like any other... some point.. big whales always win or become a whale
Or just not push into the whale brackets to begin with if all youre going to do is complain about spenders spending more than you can spend š¬
stop reading my mind
Is kinda funny though. Person who's 1st in my bracket is ops68 and mostly F2P lol
Cheers 57Chevi, got codes now and passed them on. Very cool cars
for me it's smart whale 70 with 50 krencha, me with 66 cube basically f2p, mid size 69 whale
@hardy geyser The hostiles are now even harder/ nearly 3 times harder
If you want to win spend spend spend because you dont work for it
Claimed the challenge exo gift & now itās missing & canāt be manually activatedā¦.
the gift was to unlock a new excomp slot
Why is the official announcement talking about activating what I (players) have already claimed & getting busy now on the active SLB? š¤·āāļø
the exocomp is locked behind the epic milestone. if you have already collected it before the slot unlock gift went out, it will be in your inventory and would need manual activation from the new slot. if you collect the exocomp from challenge track AFTER the gift chest, it will be auto-activated every time for its 7 day duration
has nothing to do with SLB
that's just pauly being funny
Thank you. Very helpful!
it's not even any event, it's the battlepass event...
the hostiles did not change at all. If you compare it to yesterday: Of course, yesterday we had Hurak hostiles, today its silent. But comparing todays silent with the ones we got wednesday, they are the exact same
I used the same crew and same ship as Wednesday and had the exact same results.... just the Apex mitigation Challenge went from 1 point per Hostile to something like 16-20 points per hostile
Same as Wednesday when we had Silent hostiles
I dont even see how that track is able to be completed with time on the event without any packs for points in the store.
S'why I'm so dissatisfied. They never excluded XP spending mechanics to score in the event before now. š
that track gets completed with the daily extra task for new ship owners. it adds a 3rd task which gives 100pts extra per day
Go figure lol.
who can help me with something that seems contradictory? within the station news, this one about the tournament states that the players that finish top 3 on ANY OF THE SLBs will qualify for the regionals. on the list of events for the arc, it states that it's in fact the TOP 3 OF THE META that qualify. can anyone confirm which is it? <@&509690795536941056> @cosmic steeple @desert laurel ?
what should my challenge point total be if i have the Excelsior.
<@&509690795536941056> Im ops 70 lol, there is only g3/g4 in there
Right now 2425/2800
<@&509690795536941056> why is there a faction hunt in middle of the arc? š
and that too a single faction one
It was a glitch for people that have it at 20-50
Just take it and enjoy the free recruit tokens

So what is it? The most recent one that states that top 3 slb players right?
the top3 players from the Meta will advance to the finals. you have to score in every week's SLB to keep your top 3 position
get a cloak, this event this was a none battlepass event before...
Did you even read what I said
I swear people just be commenting these days without thinking
Where did it go? It was there..i was doing it..
Level 24s cannot get a cloak without buying first the discovery then also the cloak after.
This should be a heroic event and not tied to the battle pass
raise 2 ops level, buy a d3 with faction credits + a cloak š
no need to put money in a battle pass i can not do
I'm not rushing to complete this ass battlepass
At ops69 its helps.
Where should i be in challenge track if i have no ship got the bounty for week and done every challenge?
did you get the one time extra 350 pt task in your dailies?
if yes and you completed it and all other tasks + the comp chest, you should have 2175 pts total
only 2 of the 3 FKR factions in a weird mid arc faction hunt?
Okay im right on schedule then. Guessing need ship for legendary milestone then? As doesnt apear clear in game just says need bounty challenge lol
also why are you trying to make us waste tetryons devs? geez.
if only i could waste tetryons...Event is not possible for me š
I spent a long time using the bare minimum each day to build up my tetryon stocks, but I am stuck either wasting them, or missing out on BP rewards.
There was the Klingon one too but that one apparently vanished
ĀÆ_(ć)_/ĀÆ
But yeah, this event is either pay/ops up only or hope ya hoarded enough to do the event.
So this is more recent and wrong ?
that is the old one
Recruitment drive SLB is bugged. I spent 3800 trait xp and got only 1 event point. Spent nearly 40k trait xp before noticed that did't get correct event points.
Ok so it isnāt just me, I donāt have cloaks so I just lose out on this battle pass I bought?
Never buy the battlepass until you finish all 20 stages
Cool, now I know, maybe there should be a āyou havenāt finished all 20 stagesā before you buy it?
How is someone supposed to know this
Every other battle pass Iāve had in every other game is accessible to every player level
tbf it's very rare for them to make a new bp event that is straight up impossible to complete
Cloaking device can be bought in the faction store if you can....
Rare maybe but they did it
Straight up took money for something that can not be achieved
Send in an email to cs and ask for the even to be auto-completed
Ill look but I havenāt gone very far with factions
But honestly this isnāt the only one I donāt have the abilities unlocked to complete so far. I know a lot of people have whatever unlocked but man, it seems like thereās more than a few prerequisites
Iām already behind enough I wonāt complete it
This event certainly is a bit bonkers to run for new players. Smh
You could always buy the USS Discovery and then buy the Disco Cloak to do it
Shouldn't have to for a BP event
Iāll write an email and ask for completion or refund of things not available to me but who knows if they will oblige thanks for that advice
Yeah I saw complaints etc and didnāt pay any attention to them really then experienced this and now understand
I see what you mean now. They changed the text after the screenshot I took
Almost at the time where the event ended too⦠changing a very important detail and āforcingā players to grind over and over again, this paired with the horrible spawn rates on the 70s system, makes for a terrible user experience
Thanks for your explanations š
So even if we've done both daily challenges since it started, there is ZERO way to finish it unless I open my wallet. That is BS
The new challenge track isn't f2p to finish. The purple milestones are going to require the new ship, and the legendary milestone requires the ship and an additional p2p bounty buy.
Canāt you just go ahead and get a cloak for a small ship from faction store?
they removed it didn't they? :/ shame I didn't complete it, could have used the items š
it looks like it's back
I donāt have it
Was mainly for sub-G5 players
Check that, Klingon killing one is 20-80 but the others are up to 50? Uhhhhhhh..... #š«-event-information message
hey, can't remember if the dauntless counts towards starship ascendancy in the CotA.. i'm ops 68 and wanted to know if that specific specialty ship counts towards earning points.
So is there a way to get a cloak other than FKR factions or money? I didn't focus on Kli so I don't have access.
Does anyone know how to get a data tablet from Section 31?
The largest Star Trek Fleet Command (STFC) information site, featuring information on ships, officers, systems, hostiles, research and more.
those 3 missions give them
quiz question - which ship can use Tetryons at ops25 lol? Someone didn't think that BP event through much?
Klingons and Rommys via ops 23 uncommon ship
um, there's no ops23 faction ship ... you have vahklas at 22, kumari at 24, non of which have cloaking afaik? Then you have ops26 factions ships, which do have cloaking
Think that's a typo, lol.
I am working, so yes pardon the typo
But you don't need to build the ship to get it, just the reputation to spend faction credits to unlock the cloak
yeah good luck getting 3.5 million reputation in one day.
Depends on ops š
Moot now, event changed to include standard HH type grinds
š„³
Rejoice, new players that were unable to do squat
The event change is a joke, I want my faction credits back
well i mean it does not hurt to have it early my issue is just i litreally could not do it as i was opps 24 and i had 3.5 mill rep to get before i could get it lol
The reason im calling it a joke is it should have been doable from the start, not a random change after people have used valuable items
honestly i agree with you this should not have been an issue from the start. and yeah people did end up spending credits they did not need to i agree
I got the challenge exocomp in a chest, but its not activated and its not available for me to activate. What am I missing? Is it still bugged?
geez nice of them to change the BP SMS after I wasted over 100 tetryons.
Right? I bought the cloak for my Korinar. Oh well. It needed one anyway.
sadly I didn't have the credits to spend on the ones I have available to buy
so the "AS events" that sub 51s are supposed to do to contribute to the alliance AMS... where exactly is it, doesnt seeem to be one lol
and yeah the cloak one is just not a great BPS, especially if someone is all in on the FED I guess, far less options for those (and only the expensive ones for each tier too)
The AS events don't run every day.
so we have an entire alliance event that only some people can contribute to every day ? ... yeah thats... hmm
20+ can contribute, but the 20-50 events are every other day and worth twice the points
still doesnt stop it being a daft idea, gee you can contribute when you are on, but as your events are only every other day not daily lets hope you are around on the right days or you get to miss double the contribution of the 51+ LOL
but then thats just another bonkers decision to add to the cloak BPS I guess
Dumb question but is the legendary goal for challenge track intended to be achieveable only by excelsior owners? As language in game implies if you complete all challenges plus the bounty you will achieve the legendary milestone.
yes
Funny its not expressly stated in the info in game wasted money on the bounty. Totally bad messaging by scopely
If its as its said below legendary should be achieveable it was a bald faced lie. Says no where in that description ship is required for legendary milestone.
How do you intend to do S&D challenges otherwise? the ship's required to spawn them.
Its been a while since I mined Trit (ops 50) is their a token space for fast mining Trit? Have to mine 3m for one of this month missions.
I completed the daily task every day. However, I'm missing the last item for the event.
you only get purple if you have the ship...
this week is a exception due to a 2nd comp.. enjoy the freebie milestone
You can earn 350 points each day. Over 7 days, that adds up to 2450 points. So, that's milestone 7.
not free 2 play
yet
It is. Says right there that you need the 3 dailies (2 f2p + ship daily) to complete the last epic milestone. Amd to complete thr legrndary one you need to buy the stuff IN ADDITION to the same challenges.
If you dont have the ship you can still buy it, but its more like a points pack for a battlepass. Helps you to compensate for missed days, doesnt autocomplete the pass for you though
I completed all milestones without buying the extra mission, just got the excelsiorš¤·
There were comp chests with extra points this week.
yeah I know, but still nice to achieve
Try Eady system. Not a token space but fastest speed iirc
Did you buy excelsior?
normally you won't unlock epic, it's just because of the gifted challenge points this week - normally you need the ship or 20$ pack to do this
actually its only 275 points each day without the excelsior
Was the Revenant BP meant to be removed from the event store? Not seeing it on mine
It shows up when you have the tokens.
Anyone else experiencing even more lag than usual on scoring?
Thanks, it hasnāt been that way until now š
And you have to pull one BP at a time. Maybe they took it out to fix it with a slider?
I still had 7 of them and that event also left me
star trek lag command, getting worse week by week. waste of space playing this garbage anymore
<@&509690795536941056> this hour gap between daily reset and challenger track reset is going to cause issues
Yep I just did my excelsior daily not realizing challenge hadnt reset... Oh well should mean another comp chest with challenge points
going to be a weekly issue until daylight savings time
<@&509690795536941056> i didn't get the points for the challenge track!!!! are we going to be compensated???
Same. I only got points from one of the dailies. Still missing the remainder to complete the second epic milestoneā¦
raised it
Weāre down to weekly loop passes now, not too long before we get the log-on packs
AGREED On this hour gap between daily reset and challenger track reset is going to cause issues
Anyone know when the next COTA event is? Canāt find anything online on it! Thanks in advance!
I've finished my dailies including the V'ger ones but it's not scoring in the challenge tab
Early rest of the Challenge track event has prevented me from getting the full rewards
Yup, same thing here.
Is anyone else having issues getting your points for the current "Ticketed Events" challenge? There are 2 events within it, "Ticketed Event: Separtist - SMS and Ticketed Event: Swarm/Doomsday - SMS". I am destroying Swarm hostiles in 39-Uyik and killing Separatist Bosses in 26-Pareleon and I am not getting any points for these 2 events even though these hostiles clearly qualify.
I'd reboot and see if scoring catches up.
Btw, killing separatists to do the separatist event is a scam. It's worth 4x more pts for hostiles of the same level, but they're so low that it's generally better to hit higher level targets for pts instead.
My challenge track isnāt scoring right, different members with different scoring in my alliance. Fixed
Same issue with hitting 39 swarms for the swarm event. Aim for regular hostiles of higher level.
There was an issue with challenge reset this evening. You can file a ticket if you're negatively affected. #š -known-issues
I just did mine so not before the reset. Rebooted and fixed for me.
So you should have today's pts applied to this week's challenge track. That's expected behavior.
If you don't have today's pts, and you've rebooted to check for scoring delay bugs. Then I'd file a ticket.
Still waiting for the vail to have more nodesā¦
Itās working now after rebooting the game. Should have thought about that. Thanks for the info!
I don't even bother with Separatists, I just use the ticket on the event and do a normal hostile grind daily and finish it fast that way, lol
I was angry and did not log on for a couple of days. Where did that Borg resonance event go?
i have done all 3 dailies for the challenge track but have only got 275 points and it should be 350 now thats a problem amongst others, come on now, here's the proof,,,, @supple token
Did my challenges and hereās what I got. Is this the āknown issueā that was posted earlier?
Did Territory battlepass end early? I still had the SMS, and when I last checked, our 5pm GMT capture was before the end of the BP timer.
The challenge track reset timing issue has been reported. Please submit a CS ticket if youāre affected while we investigate. This was posted on known issues
How do we know if weāre affected? Itās a brand new thing. What is supposed to happen?
if you did your 2 v'ger dailies and collected the points before the challenger track was reset, approximately 15hrs ago, then you need to log in ticket. for rest, it should say 275/350 or 375/350 (if you have the new ship)
375 if you have the ship right?
yes. bad math
Why doesn't rare ticketed events rewards 5* materials at ops 51?
Did you recently ops up?
yes, arc launch day
Hm. Strange. That is more than long enough for ticketed events to update
i heard once that 51 sometimes still counts as g4 in the game sense
i have the new ship so had 3 dailies to do i only got 275 points and i have screen shots on time i cashed them in
Why does it say 350? If you actually need 400 per day for top milestone?
350x7 + 1 x 350 legendary task purchased weekly using the $20 v'ger bounty pack (needs to be purchased each week)
dont think many will buy it. they could however add a SLB tied to it and the blind $LB chasers will go for it.
V'Ger Challenger Track SLB - Monthly
i will take a whole year of getting to the 2nd last every week to get a title
it's like the daily reward token chests either monthly or weekly
Glad to see I'm not the only one who did all the Vger Challenges but didn't get the 2nd Epic Milestone.
Why am I not getting points? It says 100 pts for Vāger trials. I finished the first one.
Never mind. It just showed up. Lol
Because to reach the 2nd Epic Milestone, each day is worth 350 pts. Every day until last night the 2x daily challenges were awarding 350 points. Last night it only awarded 275. Meaning many of us completed the listed/explained requirements for the 2nd Epic Milestone, but did not receive the rewards. The challenge track never lists owning the Excelsior as a requirement to win the 2nd Epic.
it very much does say you need the Excelsior, and the daily Search and Destroy challenge it unlocks, to unlock the final Epic milestone. The only reason people hit the first epic milestone without the ship is because of the comp chests with extra points, without those the 275 that you get a day from the two challenges is only good for the first five
Which will take 6 days to complete, if they allow the points to add to the previous day and not treat each milestone as their own day
Yeah well CCs explained it. Epic Track with excelsior or $20 pack. Legendary excelsior + $20 pack.
How you get to the milestones is up to you, but the income that you should expect is:
175 from daily hard task.
100 from daily easy task.
100 from Excelsior daily task.
350 from Paid Bounty.
So, you have to buy this Bounty challenge? How much is this bounty challenge?
Oh, that Bounty challenge that was totally invalidated by the comp chests last week and yet not a peep about compensating those who bought it? I won't buy it again.
I'd file a ticket with CS about this.
Oh yes, I can see how that goes already. I've pinged the CMs twice about it already and if they're ignoring it, CS won't give a damn.
Please let me know their response. I understand the concern, and want to know how they're handling this.
Is there any need to CorrUpdate? I donāt think I need any of the grammar corrections š!
Was it really? Week starts monday and we got the comp with the 350 points from monday were the arc wasn't live yet.
If you bought a bounty for week1, I'd file a ticket.
Can you suggest which category to get it past the tribblebot?
Yes, it was really.
It's complicated, I'd use email for things of that level. #š½-how-to-contact-support
Ok, thanks ā¤ļø
Anyone able to assist. I upgraded Excelsior and now have to kill lvl 55 fightes but die instantly. Anyone have a good crew for it?
Janeway (c), e data, annorax?
research will help
<@&509690795536941056> Daily V'Ger SMS is missing
Graced with royal lag today š
Did the treasury close early? I swear it just said 12 hours left 30 minutes ago
Hmmm, I do not see a V'ger event today.
Refunded the token instantly without any hassle. I am very impressed. š„°
Vger Trials Wave Defence - SMS dont work.... finished 15 waves and it counted 4 lol
Yup, mine said 6 hrs ago 30 mins ago. I guess Scopely canāt help but screw ppl over anyway they can.
Anyone else's Foundation of Power not scoring correctly? Looks like Outpost scoring is wrong again
anyone knows what and when are the AS events for lower ops 20-50? are there daily events ? there was one yesterday but none today?
cant find them listed any where in writing in the events lineup
Why are PvP events at the moment always also solvable by doing PvE? That makes them kind of pointless
live look in on tear ducts during pvp only events
Hmm, still I think the event is pointless then
Clear loc and you should see the correct scoring table.
Is the scoring wrong in the Foundations of Power SLB event?
If you get 6718 point per common OCC core and I used 45800 of those, shouldn't that be 307,684,400 points? What are my missing?
had wrong info for scoring metrics #š -known-issues message
Is syndicate xp not scoring?
after they fixed it mine isn't working either
Completed the foundation of power sms and havenāt received points towards the meta
OCC only gets 672 per.. the 6718 is for both Recon Locus and the Forge
<@&509690795536941056> I havenāt received points towards the meta sms. It been a couple hours so not just normal scoring lag. Is this a known issue?
Contacting support by email used to be great, I'd at least get a reply. Now, thats not even happening.
Points and rewards finally came through for the meta. Issue resolved š
It can take a few days if they're busy. What's the issue though?
They responded after my 2nd email and mins after that post. Issue about the Vger points resolved, thankfully. Losing my salt Shaker HF not fixed... oh well.
The salt shaker is interesting, not sure how it could get lost if you have it unlocked.
Looking at the scoring for tomorrow's research event, why wouldn't the Dauntless Prototype Data be included in the research event? Sorry if this has already been asked.
Also I'm a G6 player, how am I supposed to get Primordial Plasma, which to my knowledge is a G7 thing?
Probably since Dauntless is now F2P.
Premium MU Dust, Pioneer's Crests, and the Agg Smuggled Studies are all F2P as well.
Dauntless just became so a few days ago. Scopely has to keep pushing the p2p advantage. š¤·āāļø
Parts for the Dauntless, Serene Squall and Reliant all score in the CotA event on Thursday. All F2P ships. Whoever's running this event for STFC needs to switch out the Primordial Plasma (for G6 players) and replace it with the Dauntless Prototype Data.
Although I completed Challenge Track tasks (all 3) every day, I failed to reach Stage 7 so didn't get the exocomp. I still don't know when it finishes each day, should be dailies reset anyway
i think you need to have the excelsior and then also purchase the $20 bounty pack. scopely realized that f2p folks were able to access the epics...which is a no no... so this week, total pts accrued is 275 pts per day, thereby making it impossible to get to the 1st epic
Normally you need the ship and the paid contract.
Last time, the comp chest made it so those with just the ship could finish.
That's not intended or the norm.
I'm no marketing genius, but at least let everyone taste the full benefits and make sure everyone knows it and then make changes.. that's just my opinion
Ikr! Same thing happen to a frame and Avatar I'd won in an event. The only difference is I noticed the missing frame and Avatar much sooner and others lost them too. I eventually got them back. Not sure when I lost the salt shaker. I know I had it unlocked and now I dont. I didnt use it much.
Lol, who's bright idea was it to mess with the drop rates on stuff? As an example MU 15hr rate is in the toilet.
It's just rng, I did an MU run last night and got a normal amount of sigma speedups
I did one run in 70's today. 240 chests 16 15 hr speedups
Did I miss read they were going to fix the V'ger hostiles more so the Silent ones I'm part way doing them but found the Apex damage is scoring but the hostile count isn't
Are you killing one that are high enough level? If so, I'd try rebooting to see if scoring was delayed.
Yes in the lvl 51 system which is the same as my ops lvl
So full system restart and these are the hostiles I'm hitting and again hostile count is not recording it
You can file a ticket for your scoring issue, or I'd try a different system while you wait for a response.
I had the same issue. Agony booth chrono deflector t3 annorax and t4 garret below was still getting like 6 on the 71's per hostile as a 70
They're not getting pts for the kill, that's pretty unusual.
Oh that scored correctly for me. Misunderstood
Just to be sure, you are killing them, right?
Fighters and kills scored just fine not getting very much apex barrier tho. Day 1 of silents i finished the barrier one just fine. Since I've had to kill like 50
Ops 70+ problems. I finished in one hostile the first time too, but that was botched scoring. After that it was adjusted and I need around 10-20 normal hostiles
Tbh I would have liked the old borked version where some people would have needed 400 hostiles without tricks. That would have been an actual challenge
I don't have anything else to boost barrier atm until I get the research done for the excellsior
Maybe not the barrier, but the damage you take
Use one of the snw officers that are listed, get rid of Tuckerā¦
Guess I could lose joachim and try to mitigate more that way
70's kill me without tucker
Kren ain't very high yet
Hmm lemme try
I'll try that next round and lose the iso defense officer
Without joachim it may add to the barrier
@polar patio yes at 2-3 a time
Maybe this weekend when I tier kren I can hit higher easier see how that does
Yeah ok those do hurt a lot without Tucker
@polar patio if you compare the 2 screenshots the Apex barrier goes up all but very slowly but it's not registering the hostiles killed
Yeah I get the issue, was just asking in case you werenāt strong enough to kill them for some reason
I'll send a ticket as well but it's getting extremely frustrating
Try that maybe?
1st round but with Tucker it's dropped to like 20 mil per hit by end of battle
So doesn't add up very fast
Yeah it should end up there after 1-2 rounds
