I don’t get where people are saying rewards are crap I hit 1440 lvl 22’s (1132 loot chest) got over 1500 3* interceptor parts, 25 relocation tokens, a huge amount of other items 500k crew xp use your common sense it pays well this event

What level are you @lucid plank ?
My experience is the same as yours, some of the event store rewards are better than others to be sure, but I think most of the people complaining are in the 26+ bracket.
polar pier
Well when all your upgrades are 200 unc the event store is a joke
tepid wyvern

stark vector
The only useful is para trit dili token
polar pier
It’s passable for a level 20
urban spire
@frozen abyss yes I have several times. Even saw another iOS update today, 3rd one since the new faction store was put out. Still no credit.
stark vector
The point is you should have a decent crew/shio
lucid plank
@thick creek lvl28
stark vector
But mostly people speed to higher levels and now they sit on high points vs low ships
severe gale
@lucid plank
o get those kinda rewards daily any way so.. how do u think it's good
thick creek
The uncommon rewards are a joke, the blueprints are too low, but for me @25 and not spending a ton on this game, the solo portion only required 6.2m points and involved killing 22 elites which I often farm for crates in general and so the trit and ship parts were perfectly acceptable as rewards for me for doing something I would be doing anyway. When you don't spend money on packs, latinum becomes an issue, and farming ship parts is arduous and costly and buying them with lat is not always an option, so being able to use bat'leth tokens to buy them in the store is very valuable to me.
I play a lot, and have been slow playing my leveling purposely all along for many reasons which are obvious to me and anyone else who plays alot. The game just gets more costly when you power to a high level and don't have the ships to be able to keep up and are forced to spend money on many packs just to maintain your progression.
If you rushed to faction ships and spent loads of cash to get to a high level and aren't used to really grinding, then the rewards are in fact garbage...to you.
lucid plank
@severe gale separates drop rate is a lot higher
ashen pawn
For me it's the fact the new ships are impossible to get, even if you pay and buy packs to make up the shortfall you can not buy enough bps with the cool down to actually get the new ships
thick creek
@ashen pawn You are correct. The ships have been out for 1 day. This will change, undoubtedly they will offer a pack in the coming days to purchase the remaining blueprints as they did with the D3 in other events that had blueprints for rewards. It just isnt available right this minute, which I guess, it should be.
@twilit imp stated in the podcast with @loud solar that they are going to be increasing the blueprints you can get with tokens.
It will never be enough to get the entire ship thru tokens, however.
severe gale
By time I'm able to get any of them shelves they'll outlive their usefulness
thick creek
Anyone who expected to get these ships entirely through bat'leth tokens hasn't been paying attention, ever.
severe gale
Level 30 now they're barely relevant now
thick creek
Indeed, that is true, they are basically vanity ships if you are level 30.
polar pier
Well if it’s a 20 pack there’s a chance I might buy it but for 50 I expect an entire AAA title not some virtual resources that make almost zero difference to the gameplay
thick creek
Another reason I don't recommend speeding through all of the content in the game. For some, its already too late.
small lichen
Not doing event, lvl 29 solo 84.6 million points, done it yesterday. Honest devs, your are all gamers, gives us a break. You honestly are destroying the game. We
are gamers too, honest!
polar pier
I paid 50 for Zelda breath of the wild wtf is this pricing?
ashen pawn
If they are going to do that then they need to either make it up to those that bought bps already and remove the timer
teal jackal
Yea, this is kind of funny. Only 25 slots for the ranked solo event? We have hundred of active players on my server over lvl 26. Not even worth going for (I usually rank in the top 20). Pvp is even worse. After a full day my lvl 26 -27 bracket has nobody on it. Top place gets enough tokens for 2 blueprints. Second place for one. I guess I can find someone to smash a faction ship into one time, but it's barely worth it. 😂
thick creek
I think what they should do is insitute the changes, whatever they decide they are going to fix, and refund the tokens that people have spent and let them keep what they have purchased as an apology for the clunky roll out and to appease the distress and disappointment that players are experiencing over the event.
polar pier
If the refinery doesn’t improve I’m out I just burned 10 drops of ore at level 27 not a single one
And they are asking for 200+ per upgrade
So 2 days and nothing
ashen pawn
Lvl 27 refinery sucks so hard
Went weeks without a single uc ore.... had a load of rares but no uc
polar pier
Well the effort it takes to mine these days is colossal with node competition
And checking your miners
lament horizon
Can we please get some better rewards on uncommon. Please, please, pretty please 🙏 🙏 🙏
polar pier
I feel like the game is squeezing me
ashen pawn
Tbh it's not so bad on my server always find a good node unless it's a mining event. 30K protected cargo helps
west cairn
Last separatists event was decent with rss why is this crap especially if you are lvl 24 it's ridiculous
polar pier
Well around 66% of bases seem dead on my server
The game is being propped up by a core of very high spending players
ashen pawn
Most of the cash cows on my server have quit
polar pier
And people who spend 50 and then think what a rip off and quit
ashen pawn
Each event more people get fed up and pack it in, this one I lost several good friends.
west cairn
Was thinking the same why I'm watching discord and not actually playing
polar pier
Because who really wants to be in a game where you’re constantly being squeezed to spend
frozen abyss
all of us, apparently
west cairn
Especially last mining event no bonus refinery total rip off and now continues with 1 ore perr 1 k bathet
ashen pawn
If it wasnt for my alliance I'd have quit
polar pier
Well I talk to my friends
frozen abyss
mine is 870 Bat'Leth tokens
polar pier
So the best thing about the game is actually the social stuff not the content
The real content is actually delivered by the players to each other, the game is just a context for socialising
ashen pawn
100%
frozen abyss
west cairn
@spir what lvl you are
west cairn
@polar pier yep and you need an hour to do it with animation of opening the box😂
clear burrow
But you can only open 5 before a 24h cooldown anyway so it's a moot point :p
west cairn
@clear burrow didn't know that
clear burrow
That's the actual issue with this event
I wanted to blow all my bat'leth tokens for some chances for officer upgrades.. 5 boxes in and I'm on a 24h cooldown
west cairn
Actual issue is I want to quit but time and effort and my aliance members are keeping the scale barely from tipping over
clear burrow
You can buy a grand total of 150 Premium recruit tokens, and 250 Ultra Recruit tokens per day..
devout talon
previous event was at least 400 ultra per purchase
they cheaped out on literally everything
clear burrow
Yeah over the full 7 days in this event you can purchase a massive TWO full ultra recruit chests and one WHOLE premium per day
west cairn
@ @clear burrow actually no cool down on uncommon just try it
clear burrow
Or we could have the last event back where we for ~4.5 premium chests per day and ~1.5 ultra per day.. but who's counting
@west cairn I didn't go too far on uncommon RSS, but I did max out recruits. Maybe they have limits on the food stuff and the more "mundane" items don't have a cooldown? It's too bad there is zero indication of the mechanics anywhere, nor a <@&509690795536941056> to be found to help us understand. 🙄
west cairn
@clear burrow yep and I actually after getting kumari found out that kumak officer ability doesn't work at all and we will look into it just is making me want to run away screaming
Of course I had to send 20 screenshots so they would understand what I mean with ability is non existent
rapid sky
At 27 everything seems to have a cooldown... officer shards, BPs, UCs, RSS tokens...
ashen topaz
Does anyone know if you need to have positive faction rep with Roms to be able to build the Hijacked Legionary after buying the BPs in the events store?
river panther
You can build what you want, if shipyard has the right lvl and enough BPs
ashen topaz
Okay, thank you
polar pier
Guys things just get worse, price goes up, difficulty goes up, time goes up, rewards goes down
weak copper
Why is there now a 90 minute cool down after buying 1 bp on the store? Talk about infuriating.
polar pier
😅
frozen abyss
mine are still the same on server 21
and I got a refund for an accidental rare gas purchase from the event store because of the glitches in the app causing the taps to come 3 at a time when it unfreezes
abstract gate
Ok, so last time we all loved the event store and raved about it. Which led to it being nerfed this time around. This is what happens when they get positive feedback I guess
frozen abyss
on a Pixel 3... If it can't run on a flagship phone cleanly, they're doing something wrong.
swift orbit
Does it seem worth it to go after hijacked bps? Or does trit tokens make more sense. Anyone know if trit tokens have a cooldown. I don't wanna spend all my tokens on bps for a ship I can't get...
abstract gate
Stockpile uncommon 3* stuff if you can. Trit. Par. Dil, comes and goes, but ooooh boy.... uncommon stuff is rare
swift orbit
I'm pretty good on uncommon right now. 20mil trit would tier the hell out of my ships
chilly venture
The worse is that we are now three months away from the last event. Server population had gone up several levels in average so it would make sense to raise the rewards
Keeps with the inflation for higher level players and enables latest entrant to catch up quicker.
But no took the opposite stance and basically told us to see if they care...
It is hard to fathom
clear burrow
@abstract gate if you aren't frustrated you aren't buying packs to alleviate that frustration, thus they aren't making money. They're incentivized to keep us frustrated and unhappy with the option to resolve that with money.
glass mirage
thin hill
what is your current cooldown? I got 1 bp and it gave 15m cooldown. It didn't give me a cooldown at the second purchase
thin hill
now I just got the 3rd one and there is still no cooldown

hey guys, i know some of the EU servers got this event before US. but in the US, our event launched last night with a 1 day and 15 hour timer... is that the duraction of this event? or did you guys get 24 hour periods and an alliance period of say 7 days or what? how is this event set up, and how long is it actually lasting? that will impact how people spend their rewards.
sorry if this has already been asked.
thin hill
@nova valley every event was 24 hours and as far as I know this event will last for 7 days
soft gate
@nova valley I’m on a US server. We also had ours launch with a 1 day and 15 hour timer. I suspect when it ends tomorrow it will go to a 24 hour timer.
nova valley
@gaunt yacht @twilit imp so given the delay with the US and your statement yesterday, this first event was just a bit longer to sync it up to a 24 hour timer, and we will still have 7 unique events, correct?
elder comet
@west cairn @frozen abyss I am lvl26 and have to pay this for uncommon 😮
frozen abyss
level 27 here. The prices vary by level, for sure
elder comet
so you pay less for being higher lvl.
hollow oriole
The fact that prices change is just shady and dishonest
honest canyon
@abstract gate I've contacted support.. I sure hope they can award me the prizes I am entitled to..
craggy vine
So Today I tried to buy a Saladin BP from the event store, a 3600 token cost for me, I carefully click on the correct spot slowly just in case i get the a lag issue. I end up being charged 12k tokens and given 1 rare ore. I calmly contact support, i dont expect to be given any more or less than what i tried to obtain. their answer? there is nothing they can do about it. What would be the proper way to proceed as I have already seen post of people that have had their faulty event store purchases reimbursed?
alpine yoke
I just had them tell me the same thing for an accidental purchase of a hijacked mayflower bp
craggy vine
in may case it was not even accidental, i know i was in the saladin page. the rare ore page is not even close
stoic drift
did you take a pic of the it, if so send it to Panic and ask him to elevate it also send him a copy of the support staff telling you sorry get bent
craggy vine
already did, havent seen him online, still waiting. and crossing my fingers
stoic drift
the support staff really does suck ....they get away too much of saying get Bent in a polite way when the game has problems someone really needs to slap them and teach them customer service
craggy vine
And ive seen atleast 1 user here claiming he got a refund on something similar, so I would expect consistency in their responces.... at least that
stoic drift
yep
chilly venture
Worse for me was in the faction store (old version)
I once bought 10 antares BP instead of Sally
And another time a commendation rank 4 instead of 10 bortas.
Both rime I had selected the good one. 1,5k fed and 2k Klingon lost... that hurt quite q bit 😂
Didnt even try for a refund as I saw several here telling that it was useless...
abstract gate
They seem to have a blanket policy against reimbursement of any kind. Likely just another shady method to induce spending from players
craggy vine
Im not 8nterested on a reimbursement. I want to spend the 12k tokens, but i want to chose how
abstract gate
I was told by support that, yes my shield glitched, and yes I got no notifications, but they simply could not reimburse me. As if it’s real currency or something
craggy vine
That too, twice
stark vector
Sorry for question but how much points are needed now on ops26 since they lowered again?
craggy vine
I just did 12.5M for the solo
abstract gate
It’s nuts to me, there’s no way any other type of business could sustain itself telling customers, “yes our product screwed you, but that’s your problem”
I am 26 it was 15M
stark vector
Was
They lowered again so maybe check updated
25 was 9 then 7.2 now 6.2 mio
So I need the actual amount
abstract gate
I finished it less than an hour ago, it was 15. Maybe tomorrow’s event will be lower
craggy vine
Pjust checked 15

My only problem with the Solo Event is that it only takes me about 5 minutes to complete the entire thing, and then I have to wait a day to do it all over again, 😱
fathom tiger
It usually resets everyday not this time
round lava
That's weird.
fathom tiger
So yours is
round lava
Yes, my timer reset.
round lava
Did you do the update?
fathom tiger
Erk i think. Let me go ask aroumd my server
tawdry cape
Congrats on taking the best event in months (Act of War 1) and totally nerfing the entire thing. Didn’t really know that was possible, but you did it!
round lava
Yes indeed.
Act of War I was great.
tawdry cape
That’s probably the cause. They got good feedback and said wait, people are happy without spending $99.99. We can’t have that!
fathom tiger
Well our ... server is a tiny bit not like yours
We have 2 days before a reset why idk
But the update looks nice
Thanks
sleek yew
Any buddy else having problems with your miner timers
glacial token
<@&509691205798592532> .....the 24h cooldown is absolutely killing the event!
What good are massive amounts of token ...if u can’t convert to something useful....especially the officers shards are a joke....how can u level them of u are just allowed 6 shards a day....
sleek yew
Twice since the update I've had battles on nodes that shouldn't happen by warpping to the node the update was so post to fix that problem.
round lava
Yes, the mining node does work when someone is on there, you just fly right on top of them.
This is good, so that you don't go into attack mode.
sleek yew
Granted only twice has it happened out of 100s of times I've warpped to a node
No it's not 💯 what part of twice SINCE the UPDATE I've had 2 incidence
round lava
I used to hate whenever I warped to a node, someone would take it, and then you automatically went into attack mode.
Then there are still some issues that need to be fixed.
round lava
The game is still in Beta right?
If not, then there will be some major drawbacks.
glacial token
<@&509691205798592532> .....seriously.....per 1 uc.....for my Saladin I need 800 per upgrade ...what good this do me.....
sleek yew
That's why I don't participate in the events we spend more in maintenance RSS & speed UPs then what we get in return
And until they wisen up and provide something that pays for itself there's no point
round lava
Yes.
I believe that the Refinery has been tampered with as well because I haven't been getting multiple items.
Just the one and that was from 15,000.
elder comet
true for the speed ups but you do get more rss
sleek yew
Doesn't really help when you don't have enough dilithium in order to continue to rebuild your ship
elder comet
i have to pay less than 250k trit for kumari repairs. but can get around 5x 1m trit token if i want
well. you should always have enough trit and dili in your base for repairs. otherwise keep tokens
round lava
I've gotta say, those MIL tokens do come in handy...when they do come around.
abstract gate
@round lava they have absolutely nerfed the refinery. Ppl stopped bitching about it, so they went back to the default refinery rates we started with. Which are horrible
elder comet
what? no they improved it by far lol.
round lava
Yes, I see that now.
I thought something was wrong with it.
abstract gate
When it was the main source of complaints, it was getting slightly better here and there. Then it got to a middle ground players could accept. So naturally it was snuck back down to garbage rates we have now
sleek yew
My point about the refineries is that when you go up in levels you requirements in order to build become astronomical but the refineries don't reflect that
elder comet
you talking about 2*?
abstract gate
And 3*
sleek yew
*3 *4
abstract gate
Rates are supposed to get better with each level, but since I went level 26 earlier this week, my rates are worse than ever
elder comet
overall my experience is they increased it for both noticeably
abstract gate
Temporarily
round lava
I did a 50,000 one time, and it only gave me the same amount that the 15,000 amount gave.
elder comet
50k for 2* isn't worth. rates are still bugged there. 15k do give better uncommon results. 50k better common
sleek yew
I'm at lvl 28
elder comet
12k 3* batches are my go to. and they are well. but I do need uncommon and a lot of common anyway 😄
round lava
I see.
I might start seeing things better like you guys when I finally get over this OPS 19 hump.
sleek yew
My Kumar I need 600 uncommon ore alone for armor at tier 8 you can't even buy that much from a packs like ultimate ship upgrade ha I level 28 requires two packs if not more
elder comet
back when i was 19 i needed around 4 months to get enough refined from refinery 😛
sleek yew
Granted some of the RSS in a pack for more than the earlier versions but they're still not enough to do with their name implies
elder comet
that was way back then when the rates were pretty much not existent
sleek yew
What their name implies
elder comet
i had full weeks of not getting one uncommon at all..
abstract gate
I had much better 3* rates at level 23 than I do now at 26. It’s noticeably getting worse with each level up.
elder comet
rn at 26 i do get better results and higher yield which is good and needed tho you still need more than this thing produces
abstract gate
For all the odds are supposed to improve with each level
round lava
I've been so busy with upgrading my Jelly to the maximum force to reckon with that I was neglecting my station.
I've been making up lost time for the past few weeks at upgrading my station and station only...and it hasn't been easy, but I'm finally getting everything where it should be.
sleek yew
Had a lot of people in my alliance turn around and tell me at the refinery on a level 28 we're better than the refineries on a level 29
elder comet
lol. my station was totally max'd on 19 for months. couldn't do anything because of uncommon
round lava
That uncommon sucks.
elder comet
i could be lucky to get 10 uncommon a week then
yet i boosted from 20 to 26 in less than 2 months...
abstract gate
That’s what I get now, maybe one drop of uncommon per week.
I only need 400 for one upgrade on my Kumari, oh and every damn building at this level just happens to need the same thing
abstract gate
Lol, those too
elder comet
they do as well 😄
round lava
I haven't even been able to get my Botany Bay built because of the great amount of resources needed for it.
I've been putting everything into my station.
elder comet
I dunno. I play smart around leaderboard events and look out for lootable bases a lot. I rather have problems to get rid of rss 😮
abstract gate
Rss aren’t the problem
elder comet
It's odd having 120m+ par as 24 tho
abstract gate
Plenty to go around if you are diligent
elder comet
now i am down to 40m as lvl26 at least 😄
abstract gate
Lol, yeah level 25 and up eats up par
round lava
Now that's one thing that I haven't done yet.
I haven't went on the pvp route as of yet.
I've been making it on my own as of now.
elder comet
lvl24 needs quite a lot as well 30m+. lvl25 somewhere around 60m+
just today i was lucky enough to get my first rare out of refinery 😄

For the PvP event it says destroy another player's faction ship. What happens if I use my Kumari to destroy a D3?

I dont think it will work

wont work afaik. at least it didnt work at part 1 of the event. @rugged warren
real bluff
It needs to be faction on faction
native zinc
Would anyone know if you dont have enough to buy a augment ship during event. If there is going to be a way to buy them after event?
The bp i mean...for augment and separist ships
thin heart
One of the community people made hints that possibly their could be other events but nothing official to say we can earn the other half of the ship in any augment events or from augment store as the BPs suggest.
Could end up buying half a ship for nothing and then waiting a looooong time
calm stream
Buy the 34bp from the pack only if you have the rest or will get it soon
lament horizon
Can we please get some better rewards on uncommon. Please, please, pretty please 🙏 🙏 🙏
coral niche
The current event is a huge let down for several of us. Too many can never reach top tier unless they spend giga amounts of time, dil, trit or repair speed ups. As ops29 I need 86.4m points. After 3h I reached first tier, with all my dil depleted. I dont have a faction ship yet. The game So far cost me 1800 euro. Not gonna spend extra to get the Bortas and dil.
rancid gazelle
@coral niche I get your point. But that’s why in our alliance we recommend not going further then ops28 unless you have a good faction ship. I’m ops 31 with my D3 and Bortas I make minced meat of bosses. So in 20m tops because of flight time 108m is done. Further we brake bosses for our smaller player so they can deal full damage.
thin heart
That's why I think this event should have offered a full 26 ship
A lot of players are at that stage now where they need the next ship before moving to a faction 28 ship
Massive let down that you cant get one and there is nothing official to say that there will be other events offering more BPs
rancid gazelle
And those augments ships from what I understand need plutonium... attainable form ops 30
midnight aurora
Official response from scopely about how long the event store will be open, these guys are yet again vague and unable to answer questions..
thin heart
Lol.. even if the event store is open, youd need a way to earn more tokens as a full ship would cost 288K
And you cant earn 288K in this event
winged robin
they want you to pay money for the part that is missing
abstract gate
Thats Scopely - ruining STFC since Nov 2018!
winged robin
for example, there is a saladin pack for 100 euro, that only gives 34 out of 100 shards
thin heart
I got BPs for normal Mayflower last time and they've still not run another event offering normal Mayflower
Sala BPs are available in the event for 27s+
Sadly I'm 26 so that doesnt help me
And the cost of G3 UC in this event is 💩
But that's what I need to progress so my time and effort is spent making up for the refinery being so rubbish
midnight aurora
And have you noticed that whenever an event store when you can purchase g3 uncommon is on the refinery rates drop?
3 days now and not 1 g3 uncommon... shpuld just rename it to g3 unicorns, it is that uncommon it is almost mythical
thin heart
Yeah nothing but common from refinery now the event is on
I like that idea.. g3 unicorns 👌🏼😂
I dont even know how I'll put up with the refinery rates much longer when the requirement for UC and Rare is getting higher
Game is intentionally made to push you into saying f it and spending real money
Pay to play
👎🏻
midnight aurora
That is why I don't play drunk anymore
thin heart
Haha
coral niche
@rancid gazelle Thanks for your explanation. I was greedy for the better contents of the elite pack. There is a big jump in that pack when you go from ops28 to 29.
frozen abyss
It's weird how bad others' refineries apparently are. I've had decent refines, but it comes in waves. I need 118 more uncommon ore to upgrade ops to 28, and I refined 16 uncommon ore yesterday between 2 sets of 2 batches.
and 24 uncommon gas
thin heart
Gas I have a ton of as I'm always mining it and nothing has really needed it. Ore and crystal im short on 😔
charred prawn
the imbalance between them aswell there is almost o use for uncommon gas upto 28 but you are screaming out for ore and crystal due to the ships you want to upgrade
thin heart
It's like the game knows I need those 2 and refuses to refine it lol
Yeah exactly that @charred prawn
charred prawn
lol almost the same comment 😛
thin heart
😄
frozen abyss
Yeah... I've stocked up on all 3...
charred prawn
it's because the ore is going on upgrading the kumari and crystal on the horizon only the research upgrades and some of the faction ships need gas so the bits you get just don't get used compared to the other 2 it makes it a really imbalanced system
thin heart
I need to stock up more too, gonna be endlessly needing all 3 now 😬
Finally have a use for gas.. lol.. lvl26 defense platforms
😂
Just stuck waiting for crystal now for shipyard and horizon research 😔
charred prawn
buildings use very little compared to the ships
thin heart
Yeah my Kumari and its research have eaten all my ore
And this events UC rewards are poor... 1 UC per time 😥 and then its capped per 24h
charred prawn
yep rewards are terrible and this is after a dev posted about how great the rewards were going to be in this event store
they either don't know their game or are intentionally lying
thin heart
They're just too expensive in the store
frozen abyss
the Saladin blueprints are good, but that's about it.
thin heart
I cant even get them. If I could I'd have been happy grinding the event for those as I'm working on that ship now
27+ have them showing
charred prawn
yeh the level 28 faction ship bps are about all that's worth it everything else is way overcosted
thin heart
So I'll have to continue to grind federation for those 😥
frozen abyss
I'm up to 64 Saladin blueprints so far
thin heart
I'm at 31
frozen abyss
4/day is going to make a big difference. I should have 88 by the end of 1 week doing this event
thin heart
Be glad to get that as that'll allow me to do the next lots of insanely ridiculous missions ive had since level 14 😂
Ooo so close 👌🏼
Wondering whether these BPs will come in an augment event as well with them saying available from augment store on them
🤔
gusty rose
@alpine yoke you can see Marcus at 26? I am lvl 31 and dont have him...
tawdry kindle
They should make the bonus refinery a permanent one, maybe with a 7 day cool down timer on it...
gentle mango
Quick questions: how am I supposed to be able to buy all May blueprints within the event time, when I can buy 3 a day. Even if I buy bathleth tokens in the shop, event duration will be shorter than the time period needed to buy 80 part.
winged robin
you will be expected to purchase the remaining blue prints needed with real money
there is a saladin pack in the store now for 105 Euro
which only gives 34 bp
gentle mango
I don’t have it in the store. At what level it will be available?
rapid sky
I have Saladin BPs both in event store and $$ store at ops 27 with shipyard 26
oak coyote
So u guys can get 4 lvl 28 fact ship bp at day in event store right?
rapid sky
I think it's only 3 per day
oak coyote
Did u get just 3 yesterday?
rapid sky
well I got 6 in total in the 2 days
there's no cooldown though, so maybe I could have gotten more
I had the cooldown yesterday but don't remember for how long
oak coyote
Mmm.. for some reason i could get 4 yesterday, but i got 2 in the morning and 2 in the afternoon
rapid sky
could be 4/day then, I also buy other stuff so anyway don't have enough tokens
charred prawn
I seem to be able to get 4 a day
rapid sky
I got over 15K fed credits, so don't need that many sally BPs
charred prawn
but other people have said 3
rapid sky
if I can get 15 BPs I should be fine by the time I reach shipyard 28...
so 3/day and then 3 UC crystal + 3 decius shards
UC and shards is 3/day and then I get the cooldown of 24hrs...
rapid sky
I think 230
thick pine
how much uc ore is ops 28?
rapid sky
230 😃
thick pine
oh boy :))
oak coyote
🤦
rapid sky
that one I grabbed off hivemind before it went down
so I'm guessing shipyard is the same
and yeah, I gave up on upgrading my Kinetic on the Kumari to be able to do ops 28 in a week or so
thick pine
most probably ye
i stopped my kumi at 266k with enterprise crew for pvp
no reason to waste 250 uc ore atm
250 that i don;t have 😃
rapid sky
lol well same here... if I could have gotten a D3 I would have gone for it anyway and just stick around 27 forever
but since crappy event store for D3 BPs, I just go for Sally BPs instead
so ore/crystal redirected to getting there 😃
frosty kayak
Event is not worth the trouble.. lol
ashen pawn
@twilit imp you suggested that you were going to the devs to get changes on the event and on a pod cast you said the bps were going to be changed, and news on this Ive been holding off spending tokens waiting for changes but radio silences makes people think the changes wont come
hardy parcel
Are they lifting or adjusting the cooldown on the blueprints. At present even if you get the tokens it is impossible to get the new ships
thick pine
got 7.2k fed credits and 7.3k rom credits atm
gusty rose
@twilit imp anything further on event store and are they adding Harrison because there are no section 31 officers shards available in the event store.
lament horizon
Can we please get some better rewards on uncommon. Please, please, pretty please 🙏 🙏 🙏
ashen pawn
exactly thats my issue if they added more BP's and I bought packs I still couldnt get a ship because of the the cool down, what im hoping is the increase it so I can get the ship in this event by increasing the BP's available, and removing the cool down. The sweet spot for me would be someone has to do the solo every time and then would need to buy 2 packs to get the ship. Someone that does all the solo alliance wins 1st should only need 1 pack, and someone that does all the solo alliances wins the events and wins and pvp ladders could get the ship without a pack
rancid gazelle
I here all talks about the ships. But don’t forget good crew. I rather gather as much blueprints via other ways and spend the credits on crew
noble sinew
Here’s my question? If I spend the tokens on these hijacked prints and don’t have enough to build the ship, do the prints just disappear or will the revert to the regular ship of that design? Basically trying to figure out if it’s worth spending token on the prints.
thin hill
it does not worth it, dont do it
abstract gate
Prints are permanent but unavailable outside of the event at this time so if you don't vet enough you'll have to wait for next event or a bp pack offer...
Also #payflowersucks hijacked or otherwise
noble sinew
That’s what I figured. Guess I will spend tokens on resources then
I was more interested in the D3
abstract gate
Same...uc crystal, decius shards and trit tokens for me, f the f'in ships
noble sinew
Sux that I already spent some tokens on the Hijacked d3 before realizing I wouldn’t be able to use them
hardy parcel
@noble sinew you will either be able to get the rest of the blueprints in another event. Have to purchase them from the cash store. In the distant future they should be available in the faction store.
abstract gate
Well, getting enough BP for one of the hijackeds boils down to trust. Do you trust that Scopely will have other events that will make it available for you before they become useless to you? (Once you reach the actual first tier faction ships, not the payflower level).
Looking back, honestly, the only reason the introduced faction ships were of use was for PvP, and that was because everyone else had one, you know? ;-)
wind arrow
I still have 20 prints for legionary and payflower I never could get more of without paying so no certainly dont believe they will come again.
ashen pawn
no one knows if its work it because the CM's wont answer the questions
chances are if you buy them you keep them after the event thats almost certain, you wont have enough for the ship and at some point you will be offered the chance to pay large sums of money to finish the ship
charred prawn
yep we don't have enough info because the people who have the answers aren't talking
meager galleon
Chances are they may not have the answers either
rapid sky
well I have 15 Legionary & Payflower BPs from the 1st event, I was level 20 or so at that time, now I'm 27 so I will just go for a Saladin...
if scopely weren't greedy and offer some way to get another 25 BPs I would have happily paid 100$ for the other half
instead they offered a chance to get BPs for the same ship in different color... 🤦
tame pebble
@twilit imp any chance of improving the event store?
abstract gate
Event is boring and repetitive, at least better prices...
outer herald
Fix event store bring in Harrison 😈
elder comet
Barely anyone is doing the event anymore on our server
meager galleon
@teal orchid @abstract gate
Goto 17 minutes - this player is ops 27 in video
Video Posted at end of January this year. This was a Founder server right ?
abstract gate
yeah
meager galleon
So if multiple refines were on offer (aka more than just one cooldown option) the game is kinda sped up in some regards if the rest of us never had this option ?
outer herald
I'm ops 31 I'm a small fry 😆
meager galleon
I’d seen another video of Founder server player that had 3 options for same material month ago, this was the best thing I could find similar
But they had access to them way before 35 as Pearly is saying it is now
abstract gate
rapid sky
@meager galleon that'd be one hell of a farmville game though to mine all that raw mats 😄
abstract gate
you dont have the par or tri options?
meager galleon
No
Never have either
And tbh they might have been nice now and then way way back when that sort of resource value was a lot
outer herald
@abstract gate I'm not far off you
outer herald
outer herald
Oh my bad your Rom and doh
meager galleon
But I’m Ops 28 and never seen such an option
abstract gate
another 2-3 months I'll max both and start on Kling
meager galleon
And going off those YouTube videos im almost certain I won’t get the option for double refines
outer herald
Wow ok I got catching up to do @abstract gate 😂
@meager galleon no trit or para
Wtf
abstract gate
it seems there are still some small differences to founders 😦
meager galleon
Small? I’d say quite a few 😃
abstract gate
would never waste creds on base res though
outer herald
Phil we pay top dollar
meager galleon
You guys have accelerated game play vs the later servers and you started much earlier ofcourse so it’s expected
abstract gate
except that one time....
meager galleon
Well do you remember when those 10credit buys kicked in?
abstract gate
i changed 120k fed credits to par before migrating to the scopely version
always been there afaik
meager galleon
Oo that’s a lot of resources available for a lvl 15 though perhaps
abstract gate
lv15 shouldnt have faction store
outer herald
meager galleon
I certainly remember if I was in a pinch being lower lvl those would have been used now and then, they are now clearly not worth it but
Okay you’re right, when ever the store opens then :3
Which lvl is that?
rapid sky
It's rep based, so my guess you can get it as soon as you can kill some faction hostiles
outer herald
That's going to send me broke lol
rapid sky
so if you have a JF, you can get it as soon as lvl 14
abstract gate
by design i think 20, but as soon as you have 'discovered' a faction
and accumulate enough rep
meager galleon
Trying to think back to lvl 20 days about resources. Still think the option may have been used
Not daily by any stretch but perhaps now and then
rapid sky
I used the loyalty chest every day at the lower levels
which was a gamble on which RSS you gonna get
meager galleon
I still use it everyday for the chance of the hour speed ups
rapid sky
lol it's not about hoarding, it's about using them when it makes sense 😄
I use them mostly for ship tier ups
occasionally when there is a research or station events that makes sense
meager galleon
I play several hours a day, I can’t not burn through repair speed ups if I want to grind
rapid sky
or to speed ups OPs for better event rewards like I did with 26
hrm different speedups?
meager galleon
And if I want loyalty tokens I have to speed up At least one research or building a day
(Not dual faction so that’s my fault 😊 - yet)
frozen abyss
I'm dual faction, so I don't even have to complete a building or research every day to get the loyalty tokens.
rapid sky
@meager galleon well there's that then, I'm dual factioned
meager galleon
I’ve barely ever been able to store up speed ups of any kind
rapid sky
so at the lower levels it was also always 2 loyalty chests/day 😄
and even with all the PvE events I still accumulate more repair speedups than I use
frozen abyss
yeah. I get 2/day, and some days I've gotten a total of 15 1-hour speed ups from the 2 loyalty chests
frozen abyss
you get repair speedups from the daily faction kills
meager galleon
I do my kill dailies every day
frozen abyss
With 2 sets of them, that's double the repair speed ups
meager galleon
I guess dual faction may tip that balance but with kill events I still have to burn through repairs
frozen abyss
meager galleon
I currently suicide my Centurion and Kumari x 5 for the event per day and then general repairs you could say take away another 6-8 hours away
Even the dual faction repair rewards wouldn’t cover that right?
frozen abyss
dual faction at consort means 20 30-minute repair speed-ups per day
meager galleon
I dropped Rom from 1.2M to 600K, but still 400K short of neutral with secondary faction- guess I really should put in the time to correct it for second faction 🙈
Playing hard mode apparently !
frozen abyss
I'm fighting to keep both of my factions down low enough to avoid hitting the 1.2M milestone and increasing the dailies beyond my current ability.
abstract gate
I'm only doing the solo milestone on this event, and my ships get the 108mil with less than half hull so i don't use any speed ups so they've bearly doubled in the space of less than a week
rapid sky
@meager galleon I'm still 27, so smashing my Kumari 3 times into the bosses plus some 22 kills
call it 10-11 hrs repairs/day
and another 3hrs for dailies
so I don't really have to use speedups
meager galleon
I’m Ops 28. T4 Centurion and a T6Kumari
rapid sky
I use them anyway, but still not at the same rate I accumulate them
rapid sky
yeah at 28 I might finally be able to burn through them lol
teal orchid
rapid sky
I have almost 500x30min...
meager galleon
My Centurion repairs in 4 hours and Kumari in 3
14x30min Repair ups for the event alone right ?
outer herald
@abstract gate now I gotta build second faction need 10 mil fed first
I want them speed ups
@teal orchid very cute
teal orchid
rapid sky
so event starts at 6PM for me, I go smash the boss once, hit repair, wait an hour for all alliance help etc. speed up, rinse and repeat
abstract gate
Is that in relation to me squirrelling my speed ups? 😂
rapid sky
so I probably use like 6x30 min on my Kumari, then the 22s I do with my NS
by 10PM I'm done with the event...
teal orchid
These events chewed up more than half of my speedups. I'm trying to be sensible about them now.
I got klingons over into positive rep today.
It'll take a LONG time to max them, then give the roms a consideration.
outer herald
@abstract gate 1:33pm time for a drink 😀
sudden valve
My legion with the triangle can do 1.3m damage to a boss makes the milestones go quick
My legion is 350k power
ashen pawn
Personally I think the solo sould give trit dil and repair speed ups so offset the cost of actually getting those milestones
rapid sky
My 270K Kumari does 1M damage to a boss
ashen pawn
I got 600k on the boss, vs 2.4mil on elites
rapid sky
@ashen pawn what crew on what ship?
sudden valve
Legion get 7 points per damage on a boss
ashen pawn
Best I got was with az gurkon and chen, also tried Kirk spock and bones
rapid sky
do you have Nero?
ashen pawn
Yup
rapid sky
Kumak/Livis?
ashen pawn
But not lvled him up just first rank
elder comet
People barely do the event anymore. There is a 50% decrease compared to yesterday
sudden valve
I run captian is kumak officers are nero and otto
Otto boost of 40% stats to bridge is pretty good
ashen pawn
My stuck not able to promote due to lack of credits because my Klingon credits are going into the bortas atm my fed credits are going into my fed officers though
sudden valve
ashen pawn
I'll give it a try
rapid sky
and that's 1M damage, not points, so anywhere between 4-5M points depends on how much shield the boss have
ashen pawn
What power is your kumari at?
rapid sky
270K, T5 with everything upgraded except the kinetic
sudden valve
That 9m points a wack
ashen pawn
Will give it a shot see what I get :)
outer herald
Nero crew for Kumari all the way
rapid sky
@sudden valve yeah you also get the bonus for a faction ship 😃
sudden valve
Ya
rapid sky
what ops level?
rapid sky
ok well then you need it 😛
outer herald
Need Nero and his burn crew but
sudden valve
Ya milestone is 50m maxed
outer herald
My Kumari could get 6 million
sudden valve
6 repairs
rapid sky
did you try Chen instead of Otto?
rapid sky
hrm interesting, maybe I should try Otto tonight then 😄
rapid sky
only doing 3 hits/night so not enough data points to swap around
rapid sky
lol
sudden valve
Wish i had the uncommon crystal so i can get lvl 28 shipyard so i could build my centurion
rapid sky
yeah I'm saving up for that before leveling up to 28
sudden valve
The drop rates are soo bad and not spend 200 dollars just for crystal
rapid sky
it's 230 UC right?
sudden valve
Yup
Ya 89 atm
Horizon sucked me dry
At my pace i can build my centurion end of month
Stupid event ruined my chances of soing it this week
Doing*
rapid sky
I have 330, but need shipyard 27 first
then I have some loyalty tokens saved up for after OPS 28 upgrade 😄
frozen abyss
I've done the same
I claimed the first month because I knew it would be a while before Ops 28, but I saved the second one because the numbers are a lot better for higher ops levels
10 more of each uncommon: talk about a no brainer
rapid sky
yeah, I have almost 60, only used one weekly so far
frozen abyss
I used the first monthly, so I have 36. It'll be 37 later today
ashen pawn
Kumak as captain with Nero and otto going on a attack run
rapid sky
so I actually have about enough to get through shipyard 28
ashen pawn
whats shipyards 28's resource requirements? would check HM but thats gone now 😉
rapid sky
230UC crystal 😄
sudden valve
ashen pawn
ouch, did it need any other buildings?
ashen pawn
thats not to bad so I could actually cover it
sudden valve
And what ever the r&d
frozen abyss
Yeah, I did a bit of work with some alliance members to get this information together.
Loyalty box content comparisons with bolded values being the ones that change with Ops level
rapid sky
nice, thanks, can I re-use it on our alliance discord?
frozen abyss
Let me remove that blue box...
oops. Give me a second. Messed that one up
Feel free to save and re-post this. If you have additional levels you could provide, I would appreciate it. You can PM me screenshots of the rewards for levels not covered in this spreadsheet.
rapid sky
thanks
I asked in our allinace chat for 20-21/22-23 screenshots 😃
I think we should have both lol
abstract gate
lvl21 screenshots incoming
frozen abyss
I asked mine, but most of our lower-level players aren't as active on Discord.
and our 38 is really quiet.
ashen pawn
ok tried that officer combo it did work better I got it about 1/4 hull down first time 😄 will need to play with combos etc
sudden valve
Awesome!!!
Glad i could help
Maybe i should start my own youtube channel
I try odd ball stuff all the time
frozen abyss
got the level 21. Thanks for the help.
ashen pawn
I didnt use that combo before so not put much xp into them will have up them all now
sudden valve
Oh good
thin heart
Anyone else had a cap of 3 ship BPs per 24h?
Thought I'd try it as UC had a cap too.. and I have nothing interesting to spend the tokens on 😂
hardy parcel
@thin heart everything is capped at 3 per 24hr as far as I can tell.
ashen pawn
you spent tokens?
rapid sky
spend them on decius shards 😛
ashen pawn
he did look like he could be interesting but im gonna save them and hope to a get changes in the store or b for another event that I may be able to get the ship for
rapid sky
by last round against a boss you get about double damage per shot as per some of the reports here 😃
plus, nothing better to do with the tokens for me at the moment 😛
buying 3 Saladin BPs and 3 UC crystal per day
rapid sky
then trit tokens would be my next favourite option
rapid sky
saving what for the horizon?
rapid sky
yeah, so buy trit tokens in the event store
fickle chasm
I use my tokens more as homeowners insurance when I forget to shield...
thin heart
Dont really need any though 😬
fickle chasm
I mine/pillage the rest
rapid sky
if anything scopely devaluated the batleth tokens from last event, I wouldn't want to hold onto any hoping for a better option next time in couple of months
fickle chasm
☝️☝️☝️☝️
fickle chasm
Ship parts... don’t forget about those
rapid sky
well you can only get that many/day
ship parts are cheapish in latinum if you can get them in bulk
fickle chasm
True, but I use my lat for repairs more than anything.
serene forum
Soo, anyone buying the hijacked ships BP?
ashen pawn
probably not
serene forum
I was going to, but then found out that I couldn't by them all to build at least one.
soft drift
I would have but afraid scopely will stick me with 20bps an never offer more again
serene forum
And it won't come to faction store either.
ashen pawn
thats why most people havent bought it
if they said we will add packs or you could get it on the faction store or a later event I think people would buy into it
serene forum
But if you see in the details, it says that you can get them in the faction store, like the klingon d3.
But then, you go to the klingon faction and you get nothing.
soft drift
Once 90% population is beyond needing them they will add them to faction store lol
serene forum
They have something else boiled. 😂
From 33k tokens I won, I still have 20k.
Needed to upgrade my Kumari.
ashen pawn
its a shame because it could have made the augment space useful again
#makeaugmentspacegreatagain
serene forum
Mining data event is fantastic.
🤣
Well, every mining event is fantastic. 😂
I got to 19th in the last 10m.🤣
ashen pawn
personally I think we should have more level bracketed events.. so your not competing with a lvl 37 with a single ship that all yours combined couldnt compete with
serene forum
Yep, I saw some crazy tier 8 bb mining, that was fast.
ashen pawn
I pull just over 60k per hour on mine atm
cant get to t8 yet though because not 30 to get rare plut
serene forum
I pull 66k per hour in the top augment space. And it's only at tier 6
ashen pawn
using joaquin I guess? 😄
serene forum
Yep
frozen abyss
117k with Joaquin on a T7 BB in Yarda
Haven't fully leveled it up yet
only level 32, so 3 more levels to go
ashen pawn
mines only lvl 15 atm.. I should get around to leveling him at some point but I've use officer xp elsewhere im already ally status so not in any rush to mine more data
glacial token
<@&509690795536941056> what good are these tokens if u have to wait 24h....these cool down times are making event useless .....u get 6! Officer shards every 24h....seriously?
Everybody on our server is frustrated....
strange atlas
<@&509690795536941056> very disappointing this event sucks badly vs Part 1..... You guys cheeped out on resources this time.....
serene forum
Relax they will improve in the next, then go back again.
glacial token
And why are there not more Section31 Officer? Why no Harrison? Now some lucky players have him...and they dominate and bully everybody else..
rapid sky
@glacial token so in 5 days you can get Decius, what's wrong with that?
glacial token
Why can’t I level him up....why can I not use all my tokens for him? .
He’ll be just lvl5....
and what about all the other section31 officers?
rapid sky
well I suppose they need to put a limit somewhere so you can't get him maxed with one event 😄
I prefer they do a cooldown than having a bigger cost to the shards
glacial token
If u could get at least 20 shards or so....but 6?🤬😡
To level Decius from lvl5 to LvL10 the. I need 3 act of war events 🙈
placid lark
I'd like to know how many hijack ship BPs you can attain and then how you'll be able to complete the ship. Via packs sold? How many per pack? What cost? The augment store? How are you supposed to plan? Will we have to spend $200 to finish a ship? Or can we grind faction for hijack prints after the event? Cause you're not getting 80 bps from this event.
rapid sky
@placid lark nobody knows
placid lark
That's my point. I dont want to grind this event, dump the tokens into BPs, then turn around and see I've got to spend $200 to actually get the ship.
rapid sky
then don't, I still have 15 normal payflower/legionary BPs from 1st event and still can't do anything with them
unless I want to buy the packs in the shop, in which case those 15 gives me no advantage
placid lark
That sucks. I've got a Sally, so I'm ok with having a faction ship, but I do like the lefionary and the skin of the hijacked version. But they need to give us the info for us to decide on whether itd be worth investing the time and tokens in.
blazing stag
they probably don't know it themselves. Fun aside: as with all things in this game, it's not at all transparent or thoughtful.
sudden valve
Yes i have 47 centurion bpd
Been grinding for that ship for a while now
I get to 66 i will buy the cent pack
placid lark
@rapid sky valid question. I'm 6 feet under in Klingon rep. It will be a massive grind to get back positive. But I'm going to have to do it. I hear gas becomes less and less important the higher the level. And I'd really like access to rom or kling mining areas.
sudden valve
Just send 2 ships in those mining areas like u do in augment
And u can mine there all the time
ashen pawn
or use vemit
rapid sky
@placid lark I have 3 Bortas BPs from grinding Klingons, if I didn't want the Sally BPs I would have gone for Bortas
sudden valve
I have no problem mining in fed and klingon space and they both hate me
placid lark
Suicide the first? I've never really toyed with the augment stuff much or used that trick.
sudden valve
1st ship just has to be there before the 2nd ship the miner within 10 seconds
The 2nd ship wont get targeted the 1st will
U just have to warp out
And ur miner is free to mine
rapid sky
@ashen pawn if you have good rep with the Klingons, I'm dual rom/fed 😄
placid lark
Gotcha. I appreciate that info. I've seen people mention it but never paid attention to the actual process
rapid sky
so I can only get Bortas BPs by grinding klingons, and from the event store which is surprising
sudden valve
Np full of info in this game
ashen pawn
ah fair point im doing fed/kln..
ashen pawn
you can get bortas bps from npc drops from lvl 31+ but they are VERY rare
placid lark
I've gotten one Bortas drop in the 31 system where I grind hostile dailys.
rapid sky
They are rare indeed, which is why I only have 3 from probably 2 months or so of killing at least 25 lvl31-32/day?
I'm hoping it will increase once I move to the lvl 33 bracket
rapid sky
lol suprisingly I got horizon BPs form the 22 elites
meager galleon
I farmed about 60 Centurion BPs In 3 weeks
rapid sky
I have 20/40 for my 2nd horizon
I'm not doing any more farming than I need for my dailies/events 😃
meager galleon
From that I got 3 and a half Horizons in the Same time
rapid sky
@meager galleon and how many hostiles killed in these 3 weeks?
ashen pawn
most of what I have for bortas BPs came from spending credits when I hit consort
need another 70
rapid sky
I have enough for about 75 saladin BPs
going to get 15 from the event store, and collect fed credits for another 10
last 2 days will be 6 Bortas BPs instead of Saladin ones
meager galleon
Unsure, maybe somewhere in region of 6000-10000
rapid sky
ouch... with what ship?
meager galleon
Kumari
meager galleon
Oh some days I would farm for 5 hours - some days for 2 or 3
rapid sky
I can't do that... 🤦
meager galleon
Others not at all
viscid grove
Does anyone have a list of what events start when every day?
viscid grove
Got some ship xp I wanna spend but don’t wanna spend until the event
frozen abyss
There's a ship event running right now on my server
velvet charm
@meager galleon what level hostile were you hitting when farming?
meager galleon
I spent a few days camping in Lempo then moved to Rator and killed hostiles in Nelvana
The concentration of Explorers there and the level seemed to be nicer even if I did have flight time to the system
I used Cadet Uhura as Captain with Livis and Chen on the bridge
velvet charm
Ok thanks ☺👍
meager galleon
Lempo is 31 system lvl and Nelvana is 32 if I remember correctly
So 31s were the minimum I killed for the majority of time
frozen abyss
correct
velvet charm
That's cool, I'm looking to do the same for the Bortas
frozen abyss
I have much better luck killing 32s, but they're also a lot stronger
meager galleon
I got a couple of Gladius BPs and 4 Valkis BPs ontop of the Centurion BPs
frozen abyss
from my experience, the type of ship matters, so killing battleships may give you better results for the Bortas.
meager galleon
Just do what works best for your current Kumari strength to maximise the loot boxes
frozen abyss
I've gotten 6 Bortas blueprints and 2 B'Rel Blueprints hunting explorers
meager galleon
I don’t think it does @frozen abyss ?
rapid sky
@meager galleon yeah I see your point, just not that much into the game to do that 😄
frozen abyss
I've gotten 0 blueprints hunting federation explorers.
rapid sky
killing hostiles is boring
meager galleon
It would make little sense from my understanding- loot tables are based off system rather than ships or ship level
frozen abyss
They're definitely based off of ship levels, though
meager galleon
I’ve got multiple Saladin BPs from Fed Explorers
frozen abyss
Killing 30s and 32s in the same system will net you different results.
meager galleon
Ship level may increase drop % but I’m confident it’s system loot tables
I tested that theory Grung on a small scale
I collected batches of 25 boxes about 5 times over of only 31s from the system and then same with 32s and I didn’t notice a quality difference from the lvl 32 system
It’s a lot of guess work though, you might be right they loot tables are based off the ship but that seems like a lot more work
frozen abyss
If you think about it, there are a lot more systems than there are ships
only 4 types of ships per level, versus tracking all of the various systems
rapid sky
4 types and 4/5 factions 😄
frozen abyss
very true, but not that much work to maintain, if you think about it
rapid sky
well there's not really any maintenance needed I guess
meager galleon
Yeah but Centurion BPs drop from say lvl 30+ systems onwards
frozen abyss
yes. I
I'm guessing it's a parabolic function that increases quantity for a while and then decreases later in favor of other rewards
meager galleon
So lvl 30 systems have .5% drop rate. 31 .6% etc
frozen abyss
similar to how g1 and g2 ship parts slowly disappeared
Killing level 29 ships in a level 30 system will get you 0, from what I've heard
meager galleon
It’s my guess, it sure felt like it was system based but my test pool is small
mystic cove
Lvl 25 to 26 is similar. 6.12M at lvl 25 gets the same prize as 15M at lvl 26. I understand the pts requirement difference, but more than twice the work for the same reward does not seem fair.
merry fulcrum
You still get the same rewards as me, a lonely level 22
steep stream
Lol, that's not big. 27 to 28? That's big!
mystic cove
This event draws serious vacuum 🤬
steep stream
15M to 45M
mystic cove
Ridiculous 😱🤬
merry fulcrum
I've got 1.8mil at level 22, shame I don't have my vahklas yet, but I've got a t5 kehra to make up for it
shy sky
don't have before
I'm sorry... 6 million to 13.5million
it was improbable before that with a kumari on 22's... its borked now at 13.5
outer pecan
Level 33 is 108m, they have to draw the line somewhere I guess
merry fulcrum
1 billion? @outer pecan
elder comet
We do get the same amount of token but the actual items in store cost less the higher your lvl. so if I would have known that earlier I would have stayed on 25 and then advance to 26. but then I would still have the issue with cooldown
Tho I only need 15m pts as lvl26 I end up having 30m+ to be in top25 solo leaderboard
tall tapir
My cargo is full
shadow reef
I will leave that event beside. And i will NOT pay 220 Euro to get the Mayflower. 😂
tall tapir
Your cargo is full
frozen abyss
One of your ships has reached cargo capacity
One of your ships has reached cargo capacity
One of your ships has reached cargo capacity
One of your ships has reached cargo capacity
Can't chat in game because of 👆
barren night
Only one?
then you're not doing it right
We know of the issue, and the complications it is causing. There have been suggestions made to correct it, but , as with everything it takes time.
At this time, there is no quick fix to the issue.
elder comet
Why is that notification there in first place anyway? It's not like that huge UI already shows you clearly how much cargo you have.
shadow reef
And After 20 Minutes of „One of your ships has reached cargo capacitiy“: Your Station has been attacked. 😂😂😂
barren night
@shadow reef SHHHHHHH don't tell him
@elder comet Think to your miners, you are on a node, you slip away for a few hours, the ship gets full... now you know it's full and why that other player mercd you
frozen abyss
how can a miner get full? It gets killed long before that point.
elder comet
That is for mining. But actively hunting is another story
frozen abyss
I've only ever found 2-3 full miners to kill: all NorthStars
stiff moss
full miners while mining is fake news
elder comet
Also only those miner in warp 40 systems can get full haha
barren night
And there are people that will go out and hit op until their ship fills... I am sure there is a logical use for it.. Just don't know what it would be
frozen abyss
maybe the issue is the notifications are covering up other things in the game. Perhaps moving them slightly could resolve this
barren night
That is among the suggestions that have been made.
stiff moss
Well the UI is fairly crowded as it is
subtle slate
@visual sparrow because at 24 you unlock Kumari and should be able to do more damage than previously. most things in this game go in 2's.
frozen abyss
perhaps moving it into a button, like the news thing
rapid sky
@sudden valve so tried otto, it even meant I was able to get a 70/70/70 bonus instead of the usual 60/70/70 but no dice... only ~750K damage to the boss because I lasted 17 rounds instead of the usual 24/28
what level/rank is your chen?
visual sparrow
@subtle slate thx, but still it's too much diference and I still have to upgrade lots of stuff even to be able to research kumari. This is just ussual scopely sucks shit...
subtle slate
yeah...I am at the level 26 scoreboard, and have to get 15 million. One should never level up your ops during an event bc it does change your brackets
clear burrow
Have they made any changes to the event since the first few hours? Still cooldowns in the shop? Still impossible to complete at some levels, etc? (mostly interested in if the shop has been made less painful)
barren night
Ok, favorite complaint of the day
"Hey Man, why did you kill me? I was just trying to do the event"
My reponse "You were parked on a spawn point for the past 10 minutes"
"well, that's no reason to kill my ship"
abstract gate
"Sorry, I tapped too fast and the game lagged, I meant to hit the hostile."
"...four times?"
"....yes.... uh... glitch..."
winter token
@barren night this is a reason to kill😈
barren night
I thought it was... but.. i guess i'm ... wrong?!!?!
I mean, is that even possible?
winter token
If Someone take my target, i also send Home xs
frozen abyss
I only hijack the spawns of weaker players...
winter token
My 266k kumari send 3 Level higther Player Home if they take my targets xd
abstract gate
It is ridiculous that I can only get 3 North Star bps every 24 hours from the event store. As a newer player, I didn't get a chance to do the NS events. I have enough Tokens, but it would take 24 days of the event store being open for me to actually get them.
There will be other events to get NS bps, hang in there. Nothing about this game serves you well to rush. It seeks your time or money but ideally both. 😛

@warm spoke .... at least you weren't PVP-ing in the wrong systems. I hear that one is a downer.
celest garden
Hello... I was hoping I could possibly have a few questions answered here by the Game developers/staff...or at the very least someone that knows for sure the answers to my questions...not just what some people are guessing/assuming.
1.) The event was delayed a day....the announcement concerning Act of War Part 2 stated it would run for 7 days.. Today is Friday, June 21st... Given that it was delayed...on what day (day of the week/date) will the event end? I am asking because I am trying to determine how many Bat'Leth tokens I can potentially earn if I max the event out daily.
2.) Can the normal Mayflower and Hijacked Mayflower (same question for Legionary and D3) blueprints be combined and used together or are they only able to be used separately when it comes to building the respective faction ship?
3.) Is there a cool down on how many hijacked blueprints can be purchased daily or can you purchase as many as you can afford? I ask because I noticed there is a cool down on how many officer shards can be bought daily.
4 .) I am considering using my tokens to purchase many hijacked mayflower blueprints as I am allowed to/can afford....however I do not believe even if I max out the event rewards daily that I will be able to purchase all of the Hijacked Blueprints during this event (especially since I am not sure if there is a maximum number of hijacked blueprints that can be purchased daily before a cool down). I do not want to waste all of the Bat'Leth tokens I earn if I will only be able to buy a portion of the blueprints in the event store during this event and potentially not get another chance to purchase the remaining hijacked blueprints I need to build a Hijacked Mayflower.
So I am asking if we will be afforded another opportunity (event) in which we could earn/purchase the remaining blueprints in the event store in the near future ( in the next month or two)?
Please answer any of the questions you are positive you know the answer too. @twilit imp <@&509691205798592532> <@&509691611903426561>
late gulch
Last ship I hit was 70 minutes ago, and I'm STILL getting the "over cargo" message. Can you guys work on getting that notification 86ed? @twilit imp <@&509691205798592532>
edgy wasp
At least take it off either before or after each message popup, cuz 2 for each popup is pretty silly
maybe remove the sound effect too. I'm starting to hear it in random ambient noises.
warm spoke
@late gulch I've had it going for hours when I've been farming level 22's for an hour keeping all my ships running. It cripples chat and many other things.
Agreed this should be high on the list of ever increasing bugs to fix
late gulch
It's totally pointless and I've counted the "cargo" notification between 6 and 10 times per hit, with the event ones on top of that. We get the item icon notification on the ship, that's enough
warm spoke
It's a bit like your sat nav telling you you're going the wrong way ten times!... almost liken it's taunting you.
Get rid of the notification totally. Like you said we can see it's full
frozen abyss
yeah. We already get 4 per kill because of all of the events
warm spoke
that needs to go also, we can all just click the events tab and check
frozen abyss
I think giving us the options of which in-game notifications we see would be great
warm spoke
if I'm killing 4 ships every few seconds, then there isn't enough time to accommodate all these nonsensical pop ups
anyway, back to watching my event store timers count down slowly... while my tokens keep piling up.
It would be nice to spend hard earnt event rewards.
Seriously hope this is fixed 🖖
clear burrow
@celest garden
- they said it will be extended to be the full 7 days
- no, the hijacked ships are different ships. they cannot be combined
- you can get 3 blueprints per 24hrs, that may have been upped to 5 though. It has a cooldown though for sure, that's the biggest complaint about this event.
- it is impossible to get any of the faction ships from the event, you will not get enough BPs, you will have to buy a pack as well.
barren night
@late gulch Restart the game sir. if your ships are all in dock, that should take care of the messges
clear burrow
clarification on #4, even if there was no cooldown, you still would not be able to get a full ship even if you max out your solo daily and win the competitive event too. you HAVE to buy a pack
celest garden
Thank you ...do you know if there will be an Act of War Part 3 in another month where we will have the ability to purchase more of the blueprints?
clear burrow
No one knows. It's pure speculation at this point if we will ever see the hijacked ships again
frozen abyss
hijacked ships are not available in packs. You will have to wait for another event to get those.
clear burrow
they're available at some levels aren't they? (hijacked ship BPs in $ packs)
frozen abyss
Once you're at 28/29, aren't the regular faction ships better options?
halcyon briar
@frozen abyss yes if you can get the lvl 28 ship bps from the event store they are much better than the lvl 26 ships
And I've typed that enough my keyboard auto suggests that 🤣
frozen abyss
I'm up to 64 Saladin bps and 61 Bortas. The event store is going to get me almost finished with the Saladin.
late gulch
@barren night done so about 10 times, still going on. Cleared localization 5 times, still going on. All ships in dock since the end of the event 90 minutes ago. Also, not just looking for an occasional workaround. You guys have scopley's ear, this is something many many players want pulled. Please pass the info on to them, that's all we're looking for. Thanks for the effort, though
barren night
Sorry boss.. We have made suggestions, and as with all things it takes time, currently there is no quick fix for this issue.
frozen abyss
4/day x 7 days = 28 total from the event, so 88. I'll just need 4400 credits for the next one.
trim glade
This just in: event still sucks. 😂
late gulch
👌got it, boss. Wasn't looking for an answer or a fix, just that y'all pass it on to the devs. I'll assume that it either has been or will be based on the non-answer answer. Have a great one!
trim glade
I’m don’t understand how they can screw this up. They had literally the same event once before and the rewards and timers were fine. Copy and paste, devs! 😛
placid lark
@celest garden I've been talking about that very point on your number 4! For a game made up of pure numbers it's really hard to plan these things. It should be a very simple answer!
torn sluice
@celest garden vid comimg later which may or may not be of use..depends on alcohol intake over the next few hours 🍺 😁
lament horizon
Can we please get some better rewards on uncommon. Please, please, pretty please 🙏🙏🙏
barren night
Last panic said, is they were looking in to the rewards. Nothing else has been stated
lament horizon
I read a lot of complaints about the BP... but what are the BP and the ships worth if you have nothing to upgrade them?
Refinement of unc is a joke
barren night
I feel your pain sir
lament horizon
And now the event also
barren night
I was at 26 for 6 weeks, trying to get 15 unc
magic magnet
This was event was the most popular, by far! *sarcasm
WTF? Stupid Scopely
Anybody beat that?
lament horizon
I agree the event was one of the best up to this point... now they nerfed it badly
Scopely has to respect the grind and not put everything behind paywalls
@barren night
That is not normal for any game to be stuck for 6 weeks. ...
lament horizon
That's the best way to lose your player base
barren night
It doesn't help, and it is one of the things that has been brought up and hopefully is being reviewd by the dev team
lament horizon
Fingers crossed, but I won't hold my breath
glacial token
@barren night do you know why not other section31 officers have been made available?
merry fulcrum
I can get Paul zhou
barren night
@glacial token Unfortunately no, I have heard that they are testing some. How far along etc etc etc no idea.
merry fulcrum
That's it
barren night
But it is section 31... so they may already exist... we just dont have the clearance to know about them 😉
glacial token
Harrison is very strong ....some players got him during 1st act of war...and they are now unbeatable....so would be great if we also get a chance...thx
merry fulcrum
Well they don't want to have everyone flying around with him now, because of how op he is, or have the ones who got him able to promote him
barren night
Not unbeatable, I have seen plenty of harrison sallys loose to a properly crewed b'rel
merry fulcrum
You've seen what sabotage does, and if they can promote him, it'll only get stronger, imagine a Saladin doing 900k damage with a crit first turn, and ignoring 75% of shields
@hal I've seen properly crewed b'rels lose to Saladins as well
barren night
it can go either way, crew level and tiers matter as well as research
merry fulcrum
Still this is a b'rel we're talking about here, the rare explorer
glacial token
Would just be far if other players could get Harrison too.... it’s a bit disappointing can just get 2 officers ...6 shards each in 24 hours
thin hill
Get rid of the cooldown
merry fulcrum
Tbh this event sucks, they should increase the ammnt of tokens in the event store
barren night
@thin hill Just for you, I am going to do something special
merry fulcrum
Last time this event occurred, they face 200 ultra recruit tokens, now it's 75
thin hill
Lol
barren night
@thin hill I hear your complaint, and I will suggest that the cooldowns be increased to atleast double what they are 😃 Will that help ?
But seriously, we have pushed that up the chain..
merry fulcrum
And a x150 premium went to x45 premium
thin hill
I have extra tokens for 3 bp, it's getting out of hand
merry fulcrum
Only things I'm really buying are the trit, dilithium tokens, and officer shards, since idk what else to get
glacial token
@barren night anyway....good luck in your new role....we appreciate ur actually responding to players....and acknowledge it’s not the easiest task to mitigate all the frustration
west cairn
@barren night what's with with the 1 uncommon ore going for 999.99 bathelts it's a discrase
barren night
We agree
And we have mentioned, and pushed that up the chain
unfortunatly , we don't get to make all the decisions.
merry fulcrum
It's not like the chain does a Good job listening
@west cairn thought you meant bath salts, instead of bat'leth tokens
west cairn
This event could be atractive if there was possibility to earn at least decent rss otherwise I spend my time with my kids
halcyon briar
Here's my issue with the current event
delicate zenith
@barren night So I just opened yet another ticket... The event is giving out only about HALF the damage points it should. I actually added it up for one battle, and it was 2.1 M damage dealt to a boss. I got 5.1 M points. MAD
halcyon briar
This was my event store on the original event at ops 25
This is my current event store at ops 29
west cairn
@merry fulcrum I write as I write I use three languages a day most important thing is that ppl know what I mean
So get off my back
halcyon briar
That is an unacceptable severe reduction in rewards
merry fulcrum
Yes it's a drastic reduction in rewards
I remember the ns bps were in packs of 35 last time this event happened
Now it's a single bp
golden veldt
Yep, I do remember that too.
I think it was 5x bps for 7200 and towards the end 35x bps for 21.6k
west cairn
I didn't do the solo today doubt I do it tomorrow either. There is just better use of my time
merry fulcrum
Yeah, 21.6k, about 1 days solo event of tokens
golden veldt
Correct.
merry fulcrum
Now I'd have to have 6 days worth of token spending just to get all the needed bps for me to get the northstar
golden veldt
Real dilemma now is to hold on to tokens in hopes that rewards will be better towards the end or take wahtever you can get.
merry fulcrum
That's if they didn't limit the ammnt I could buy
west cairn
@barren night ask chain of command why officer ability for kumak doesn't work
barren night
@delicate zenith can you send me your player ID, and I will try to get this escalated
hollow prairie
Question, are they going to allow more than 3 BPs per day towards the end of this event?
golden veldt
I think they have done a good job at creating news channel, if we have some info on how event store is going to operate under news, that'd be phenomenal.
merry fulcrum
Not even 3bps,we should be able to get a entire ship from this event
golden veldt
Not everyone who plays the game are on discord.
west cairn
@barren night kumak officer ability bis not existing
delicate zenith
@west cairn I see kumak activate every once in a while, just not as often as he should.
halcyon briar
@delicate zenith kumak only activates if the ship is burning at the start of a round. His captains maneuver is good though and you will probably see better performance out of him captain than nero
delicate zenith
I’ve heard that, but haven’t tried it yet. My Nero is waaaaaay stronger...
west cairn
@delicate zenith I looked over 200 logs with arix ability seting fire to ship and kumak ability never shows up
It comes up 6 times in many battles but kumak never followed up
So statistically arox burns ship in a fight 6 times which is 20% chance but kumak that has 50% chance to use ability never does
6over 50% chance gives miss around off 300%
Plus in bigger battle the numbers where even higher
Arix*
polar pier
I would just like to highlight again how tight the event store is
These events are like the refinery completely inconsistent
Goes from decent rewards to nothing
Where is the consistency
Why can’t I see the details of my refinery so I know when I am putting time into mining or upgrading buildings how much I am gonna get
Why can’t I know that if I grind for hours and buy some BP whether it will cost me 100 to make the ship
Oh but there is a new moderator to buffer the complaints now so all is well
Hi btw 😉
placid lark
@polar pier exactly! Are we going to waste all those tokens only to have to turn around and buy the ship anyway?
west cairn
@barren night just sad I'm ignored with my question same as from support 🙄
meager galleon
@polar pier voice your opinion on my Reddit thread 😊
barren night
@west cairn Keep one thing in mind, i am new here, and tryig to learn where all the reports on toons are. Sorry for th edelay, but, i will forward it and see what if anything they say. If possible could you provide some battle logs ?
west cairn
@barren night I did lots of them ship burning for 5 turns kumak never activates
