Domination is 23k

abstract gate
#

Yes. * time for the rotten tomatoes * I’d like to see a couple more days of domination myself

heavy cradle
#

I keep expecting faction hunt, and then being completely wrong.

nova valley
#

@abstract gate I wouldn’t mind a domination ducks and covers

#

I have a fresh officer badge that needs spending. Lol

teal jackal
#

you're lucky. All my upgrades require multiple.

<@&509691205798592532>
Why.. oh why.. is this weeks solo lat leaderboard not tiered! It...always has been in the past.. but oh my... it is not.. this week. I am 32..competing against 39s?! Uh.. i can't mine 4*..seriously..what the peanut butter!?😩 šŸ¤¦ā€ā™‚ļø 😿 mindpalm

#

Seriously..2 rare warp cells to big fast lat..wasted... due to this..abnormality..huge mistake.. whatever u want to call it.. also.. weren't we supposed to have our khan shards ect back this week from sunday swarms? That didn't happen either..

teal jackal
#

@glossy vault Because it's more fun that way. šŸ˜„

glossy vault
#

M....mmmmeow..not uh🤣😹

teal jackal
#

*Whispers, I'm Ops 39. ;_)

#

šŸ˜‰

glossy vault
#

Right..now way u won't place top 10..right meow I'm 6th..but.. normally would be 1 thru 3..and.. I neeeeed those rewards. Aside from the fact that drops of rare lat cells from antiques are seemingly ab 1 in 10 per refine...mindpalm

teal jackal
#

I'm not mining at all so...

glossy vault
#

Well. Maybe u don't need to😹
I def do

teal jackal
#

But I am still in 5th just from stealing lat. 🤣

glossy vault
#

Oh I'm on that as well.. pew pew

#

Still no way I can compete..just saiyan.

teal jackal
#

I'm not disagreeing with you. You are totally correct

#

The groups for events completely sucks

keen ledge
#

We have reported that more than once.

languid cove
#

Is there any talk of revamping the ship crew setup. It’s such and annoyance cycling through to find the crews that you always used together

teal jackal
#

Always talk

#

Is there action? who knows

glossy vault
#

Well..I put in a ticket...so.. that was some action on my part...

atomic echo
#

This Apex Outlaw - Alliance Milestone is kinda out of touch with reality, isn't it? 7500 points to hit the first tier. We have 69 players, that's a max of 6900 on day one and that's only if all of us take part (which we won't, unfortunately). Is the top tier even reachable? I can see this one should be running for three days. Will the points increase to have a decent chance at all?

tribal elbow
#

@atomic echo You will get more points in the upcoming events, ops27+ player who finishes all events will contribute 1000 points, so it is possible to finish it with 30 players. You can find more information in the news post in-game.

atomic echo
#

Great stuff, thanks!

tidal bison
#

Any reason for the varying output?

#

Was wondering how most of the alliance were able to get first stage of Apex Gateway Pilots done

heavy cradle
#

I've been way overthinking this, but with a grand total of 85 Rogue Event Trophies (if you complete every daily, and then get the 25 alliance bonus), I can get 5 of the resource packs, and still have enough to buy 2 of the Research Medal packs at ops 28.

#

that gets me the 30% warp boost, beyond that is massive diminishing returns per Trophy spent.

winged tulip
#

I'm thinking if i get all events complete i'll be able to get enough research tokens to get the reputation research thing done

nova valley
stray wadi
#

Stella avatar is locked to me even though I got the stella several days ago. Is this just a me thing or is there something I’m missing?

peak cave
#

Elite battle pass??

stray wadi
#

No. The description said to obtain it during arc 2 by getting 100 stella bps. Didn’t realize it was an elite thing. šŸ˜• Thanks.

peak cave
#

It is one of those things that scopely doesn’t really mention. It is an add really. Do this and you could get this, but don’t really say how.

nova valley
#

there is an avatar in the free section, that i think looks better than the stella one.

fervent folio
#

Well, you do get it from the same Milestone that you get the second set of 50 BP from....just on the bottom side you have to pay for

nova valley
#

the rogue silver metal looking one. i love it

#

that's the best looking avatar in the whole event i think

fervent folio
#

But really, who doesn't buy the Battle Pass? It's such a great deal

stray wadi
#

It is a great deal. But I’m essentially f2p. I’ve only ever bought the NS. My max budget to any game is $20 for the life of that game

fervent folio
#

Well, you spending habits are up to you, but I find in these types of games it's better to give yourself a monthly budget than a lifetime budget

#

as long as I am having fun with a game, I'll throw them $20-40/month

#

if you think about it, that's really not that bad if you break it down to entertainment per hour, or the fact that console games can run $60+ and you are done with them in a month or two

inland hamlet
#

@fervent folio or you can enjoy the game as is and think of not spending as the game, because at every turn you are tempted to spend.

fervent folio
#

I agree, you can do what you want, I'm just saying what I do

#

but, if you don't spend, then also don't complain that there are rewards you don't get

#

I enjoy the game as-is, and prefer to let the devs know I do by giving them a bit each month, as long as it stays at a bit and doesn't start costing me more than that and keeps on entertaining me, i have no issues

#

I mean, I know it's a bad example right now since movie theaters are closed, but think about how much you spend to go to the movies for 2-3 hours of entertainment, then how many hours of entertainment this game gets you

#

Isn't it worth a little every month?

abstract gate
#

What's the new events at 5pm please

abstract gate
#

The dumbest event ever 🤬

#

Basically you can just do a level in the first day, don't play in the 2 and easily do the event in the 3 day and get all rewards

#

Yeah and if all in your alliance don’t do shit, none will get rewards. No free rewards how dumb

winged tulip
#

If you've got leechers in your alliance it's your problem

abstract gate
#

Actually that's the problem, it's almost free rewards. You just need to the minimum in the first day, nothing in the 2 and just the 3 day missions and get all the rewards

winged tulip
#

you get rewards from each daily event too which you wouldn't want to skip if you were a regular player..

abstract gate
#

The rewards are nothing special

#

I don’t know, i’d call a free officer badge pretty special

#

If there’s many leeches, tell them to shape up or replace them with contributing members

#

If all they want to do is sit quietly in their corner and reap rewards they can get their own alliance to try it there

nova valley
#

why wouldn't you want all the trophies tho?

#

lol you can skip day 2 and still hit milestone, sure, but why skip the trophoes? they're INCREDIBLY valuable in the research tree.

#

i've already mapped out that i can max chop shop in 6 months of these events LMAO

#

but i won't get those medals by skipping them.

restive inlet
#

The free badges are awesome šŸ˜

drowsy viper
#

i've already mapped out that i can max chop shop in 6 months of these events LMAO
@nova valley I think you’re a bit optimistic thinking there’ll be 6 months of these events...

What about Borg officers? Borg armadas?

#

They fail at implementing continuity since Augment space was introduced

fervent folio
#

We have Swarm Sunday...why not APEX Saturday?

drowsy viper
#

You’re being optimistic... there’s barely regularity in most of the content

nova valley
#

you're absolutely right @drowsy viper i'm TRYING to find the quote but can't see it. i had HEARD that apex ws gonna be a monthly installment event. BUT i cannot verify that, nor can i find the source of info.

drowsy viper
#

No worries, I’m not saying that with a pinch of salt, but instead, with realism. I had my hopes up with Borg officers, bought some shards hoping I’d be able to buy the rest later on... and nothing for months. At least Stella by itself it’s mostly manageable without monthly events, so I’m fine knowing I might not max all apex research

#

I really wish they had included SOME Mudd shards through more events, and not only packs or elite milestones. I liked you could get Mudd through LB

#

Where’s Mudd ? I’m doing missions with his ship... and I did the numbers and with the 20€ I can’t get Mudd

nova valley
#

FOUND IT

drowsy viper
#

And I can’t know if they’ll add Mudd shards in arc 3... and I’m not paying 100€ for a bad pack just to have Mudd

nova valley
#

now, of course that doesn't say HOW MANY come each month. but ASSUMING the same rate of awards as this one, 6 months LMAO

drowsy viper
#

Scopely fails at straight telling people how they can unlock some content

#

now, of course that doesn't say HOW MANY come each month. but ASSUMING the same rate of awards as this one, 6 months LMAO
@nova valley it’s good. It condenses some of the new mechanics, data mining, exchange hunting and exchange armadas in 3 days with worthily rewards, if it’s true that’s recurrent I think will be welcomed

#

Mudd is missing in Apex recurrent event imo. You should be able to buy some shards with event trophies too, why not.

#

That would add continuity in this officer and would guarantee continuity in the whole Apex/Outlaw arc. Only Mudd is strangely a left out officer

#

Let’s not repeat Borg’s mistakes

nova valley
#

i like that idea!

stray wadi
#

@fervent folio I was not complaining I missed out on a reward, just confused because of the picture I’m about to post. So I was checking to see if I missed out on doing something or it was a paid thing I didn’t notice. And yeah, $20/month is reasonable, I just don’t have money to spend on entertainment atm. At least not until our debt is gone.

fervent folio
#

Yeah, I saw that, and it's partially true. It comes at the same Milestone as the second set of BP, so if you bought the Elite Battle Pass, that is when you get it

drowsy viper
#

@nova valley I posted it as a suggestion. If they add Mudd in a recurring monthly event or in high reps in rogue store, they would have a whole arc content with guaranteed continuity, making it already better than Borg

fervent folio
#

doesn't borg have guaranteed continuity? Do you not get Transwarp Cells Daily that can be used to get Nanoprobes Daily that can be "refined" for worthwhile things daily?

drowsy viper
#

Tell me where and how I can get all Borg officers please

fervent folio
#

I'm not 25 yet so I don't really know

#

The Officers are not 100% of the Borg Content...and they have started adding other ways to get them. Wasn't one of them recently added to Transport Patterns?

drowsy viper
#

Or Vi’Dar if I’m a new player. It seems they’re trying to introduce him in a strange bugged event, so I’m not sure it’s actually regularly achievable

#

@fervent folio they’re Borg content as they were launched during Borg arc and they’re BORG officers

#

Let’s not justify their mistakes

fervent folio
#

yes, but they are not 100% of the content

drowsy viper
#

Tell me how to get uncommon transwarp cells for example, if you tier up your Vi’Dar higher than tier 3-4

fervent folio
#

There is continuity to the Borg Arcs, there is still plenty of the content available, just not all of it

drowsy viper
#

Or how to launch a Borg armada

#

You’re missing the meaning of ā€œcontinuous contentā€

fervent folio
#

Nanoprobe refining is continuous content...not 100% of the content is continuous, some of it was limited time, but there is in fact continuous content

#

claiming there is none when there clearly is is just silly, it's just not all the content you wanted

#

but they have said there will be more Borg Content...so let's see what happens after Outlaws

drowsy viper
#

Launching something, getting players to get it and then stop any way for them to even ā€œfinishā€ it’s a discontinuous content

#

Nanoprobe refining is continuous content...not 100% of the content is continuous, some of it was limited time, but there is in fact continuous content
@fervent folio no it’s not, there’s content that becomes discontinuous without any warning, like uncommon transwarp cells

#

That’s literally the definition of discontinuous content. The ONLY thing that has continuity is Vi’Dar upgrading, granted.

#

Everything else became discontinuous

#

Stella and Rogue were launched thinking in long term, and that’s noticeable

fervent folio
#

so you can't continue to farm and refine nanoprobes?

#

Yes, I agree, Outlaws is better, but the refinery is absolutely continuous content, they've said the Officers will be available other ways in the future and more Borg Content is coming in the future

#

I understand you want it right now but they can only do so much

#

this is a problem in every game I have ever played. Devs can not create content faster than players can consume it

drowsy viper
#

so you can't continue to farm and refine nanoprobes?
@fervent folio get a Vi’Dar to T3 and once you see there’s several systems you can never enter anymore, EVER, you come back...

#

I understand you want it right now but they can only do so much
@fervent folio don’t get me wrong, I’m not asking for anything, I’m merely suggesting to anticipate a problem before it becomes near unsolvable

#

It’s called feedback

fervent folio
#

then take it to the feedback channel

drowsy viper
#

Did it

fervent folio
#

and there is also the fact that they have said it's not the end of Borg Content

drowsy viper
fervent folio
#

there is more to come in the future, but we are doing Outlaws right now

solid badger
#

There are only 3 systems that are tier locked dealing with the Vi'Dar. Those are the lat systems.

#

Refining the nanoprobes can give either stuff needed to promote Borg officers improve Vidar or faction rep/credits

drowsy viper
#

There are only 3 systems that are tier locked dealing with the Vi'Dar. Those are the lat systems.
@solid badger yep, incredibly important systems as they introduced the possibility to farm lat outside of mining, and they failed to give a consistent way of access

#

Refining the nanoprobes can give either stuff needed to promote Borg officers improve Vidar or faction rep/credits
@solid badger yes you have continuity in the material required to promote Borg officers but not in the Borg officer shards.

#

Look, it’s not a rant, it started as a suggestion highlighting that the same mistakes occurred in the past, so now we have the experience to avoid them. If you want to defend those mistakes, go ahead, I’m not entering this type of discussion, but know they’re unwanted and really mistakes, not features. That’s why months after, they’re still searching a reasonable way to implement this content in a continuous way

#

It was really constructive criticism

novel hollow
#

Am i reading it correctly that the Stella gives two bonuses for hitting eclipse hostiles, a +170 bonus for the ship and if you hit a eclipse hostile it scores as a hostile two levels higher?

fervent folio
#

no, but Eclipse hostile give the same points as a hostile 2 levels higher of other types

novel hollow
#

I think it’s both

languid cove
#

The borg will be back for sweeps week, they always are

dapper falcon
#

@twilit imp where is our July ISS Jelly event?

warm crown
#

In today's Apex Hunter event, Eclipse Hostiles suppose to score 2 levels higher. The math is wrong.

fervent folio
#

no it's not, look again and compare an Eclpise hostiles points to the points of an Aug Hostile 2 levels higher....the points match up

warm crown
#

I record my total points at the Event page. Go kill a L30 Exchange Transport, went back and look at the total points again, it gave me 720 points. I should be getting 1440 points.

fervent folio
#

look at this:

#

Does that make it clear? Eclipse Hostiles are worth Points equal to a different Hostile type at 2 levels higher

#

a 27 Eclipse Hostile gives the same points as a 29 Augment Hostile

nova valley
#

@fervent folio is correct.

#

the points are awarding correctly.

fervent folio
#

A 30 Exchange Transport gave you the same points as a 32 Augment Hostile

#

I don't see a problem there, it's doing what it said it would do

warm crown
#

Well, they didn't word it very good then. The description stated "Eclipse hostiles count as 2 levels higher for scoring purpose". It makes no references to Augment Hostiles.

fervent folio
#

For scoring purposes, they give points equal to another hostile of 2 levels higher

#

I agree, the wording is a bit confusing as it can be interpreted in different ways, but they do count as 2 levels higher than other Hostiles

novel dragon
#

I’ve got a question abort the scoring for the apex outlaw milestones. Do I need to score points in each milestone level, or can I max my points in the first tier and be good for the rest?

fervent folio
#

As long as you score points before any awards are given you will receive all rewards your Alliance gets

#

however, to only complete the first day and ignore the rest is a pretty crappy thing to do to your Alliance

novel dragon
#

It’s not that, I’m almost done with mine for the day and we’re still on the first tier

fervent folio
#

oh yeah, the points increases substantially today, they wanted to give everyone a chance to score some points before the rest of the Alliance met Milestones

#

similar to CoW

#

but I think you still need a good 30+ active to be able to complete all the milestones

#

if you don't have about 30 people doing their solo's everyday you may not complete all the Alliance Milestones

nova valley
#

@novel dragon yeah you need a solid team behind ya. is yoru alliance active?

runic osprey
#

Not receiving points for roms kills on off and a reset nothing

wintry turret
#

be sure to really kill roms. Just killing in rom space is not enough, because there are also non rom hostiles in some systems. I made this mistake once, 1h killing the wrong ships

peak cave
#

Made the same mistake myself.

wintry turret
#

It's not that uncommen if you just look for the right level and ship type

hazy storm
#

@twilit imp reason I didnt get credit for tier up my brel? Is the event broken?

wintry roost
proud pond
#

Does anyone know exactly what Stella efficiency improves...? Shouldn’t it lower uranium costs?

nova valley
#

yes @proud pond

#

but i think like with all ship components it's a rebate program. won't display. so if it says it costs 250 uranium, you must have 250 uranium in your inventory, but you'll be left with 125 after the upgrade.

#

i don't have it. can someone correct me if i'm wrong?

proud pond
#

Ok thanks @nova valley someone in my alliance has it. We will do some testing

nova valley
#

I would assume it behaves the same as the other Pureā€˜s. Even in the galaxy tree there’s a pure crystal that works the same way

autumn ether
#

Yes I can confirm it's a "rebate"

wind ice
#

The ā€œpureā€ and rebate researches are BS, it’s great don’t have to spend full freight but really annoying I can’t build/research something that doesn’t cost what it says it does. Just front-end the damn thing

robust vapor
#

Front end is the problem though šŸ˜… they need to get the numbers straight from the server if they can't get their formulas right (which repairs showed that they can't).

vivid hearth
#

Why do all the problems in this game come around to scopley cant count ffs

#

Incompetence

robust vapor
#

They can count, they just don't know what formula they're using šŸ˜‚

#

The repair cost formula as an example is straightforward, yet they repeatedly failed to replicate it correctly in the client.. eventually giving up entirely and pulling the number straight from the server šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø it shouldn't be that hard to copy a formula..

Ctrl -c then ctrl -f

Happened in Leona event space closed game before I thought to take pics.

#

Does anyone remember if the level eligibility for the ISS Jellyfish Pursuit event included level 41 last month? I know it jumped up but I can’t remember

halcyon patio
#

hmm... I see a problem here.
I've completed solo event before we got second milestone but now if my alliance complete 3rd one, I won't receive rewards from it, right?

shrewd totem
#

You should

granite zenith
#

as long as you scored any points toward the event before the FIRST milestone... you are eligible for any and all milestones the alliance hits after that
if you did not score before the first milestone, but scored before the 2nd one, you would be eligible for all milestones AFTER the second one... and so on

Good morning everyone
Just wondering if anyone knows if when the next ISS JELLY event is
Thanks

granite zenith

my assumption is that it will be between the arcs of the battlepasses

Might be this weekend šŸ¤”

#

But no one has exact date

#

Anyone know what the events might be after today's reset? Another Apex/Faction Hunt?

#

Just built a Vahk and am wondering if I should hold off on auto-aggro to lvl up, until after the reset.

#

they usually come in pairs, so yes, today will likely be a repeat of yesterday

#

Thanks, that's what I figured. I'll wait until noon then.

#

And outlaw amardas it's in the notes

blazing stag
#

One question: what are the requirements for the current events? Especially for the milestones. Is this based on the number of Ally members or how big is the maximum space of the Ally?

abstract gate
#

It should be the same for each alliance

blazing stag
#

Even at the milestones? This cannot or should not actually be identical.

dapper drum
#

they are all identical

abstract gate
#

Why not? Scopely has long been pushing for us to get bigger stronger alliances with all the COW events

dapper drum
#

either spend and carry your alliance or join an event focused alliance

#

scopely prefers you to spend though

winged tulip
#

Yick. These events are like herding cats - need a way to divide an alliance into groups, and do group-only armada invites..

cursive sonnet
#

The refresh rate on these armadas needs looking at... 😣 exchange alpha, completely empty

granite zenith
#

instant is too slow @cursive sonnet ? refresh your game

granite zenith
#

refresh or restart... they are there you just cant see em 🤣

#

if it aint lagging... we aint playin

#

What up

cursive sonnet
#

They were instant the first couple of times, now there’s a long delay, complete restart and nothing

#

kill all those blue ships... they are slowing the computer down 🤣

light tulip
#

is the weekend Armada event also the new exchange bank armadas as today or is it regular armadas?

abstract ice
#

No show armadas on our server too, game update did nothing

viral sail
#

Restarting didn't help - they are still not there

inner cave
#

Really so where are you meant to have got more rare directives from? Their hasn’t been any other event except the burst events. Unless you need really high rep to get the rare directives.
The uc in alpha, beta, gama and delta don’t spawn unless you take the rares out???

#

Also the score for the 31’s this time around have dropped from 1000 to 800 points, buts again these won’t spawn unless you take the rares out

light tulip
#

Stuart I got 600 rares from a single burst event. Was really tough but I managed to get just that one event done.

#

otherwise yeah it's only buying a pack which is lame

granite zenith
#

Also the score for the 31’s this time around have dropped from 1000 to 800 points, buts again these won’t spawn unless you take the rares out
@inner cave this is the first time we have done Apex Armadas... save that complaint for if the score is changed for the next Rogue Outlaw Armada Event

inner cave
#

In the last armada event @granite zenith we got 1000 points so really the points should be the same this event.

#

Yes it’s a different event with less point to reach the top

carmine lily
granite zenith
#

the last armada was NOT part of the APEX 3 day event... it could be designed with different scoring patterns... the hostiles were score different as well during the apex event

shrewd totem
#

Yes 31s give less points so what? My milestones are also lower

#

It used to be 10k in armadas event,now it is 8k

#

(I am lvl36)

inner cave
#

So where did you get more rare directives from (outside the apex research event and spending money)? @shrewd totem

granite zenith
#

and it may go back to higher points and higher milestones in the Armada event... this ISNT the armada event...

shrewd totem
#

Why do I need to get rare directives?

granite zenith
#

i got rare directives from the hostile frind leaderboard...

inner cave
#

You need to kill the rare armadas to get the uc ones to spawn @shrewd totem

shrewd totem
#

Nope

#

Unc ones spawn pretty good šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø

#

You just need to look around

long dust
#

They follow a cycle

inner cave
#

Only in the central areas

shrewd totem
#

I finished this one and earlier armada event just buy spending unc directives. It wasn't that hard

carmine lily
#

There’s a total of 1uc armadas amongst all the systems. Everyone is either fighting over it or standing in line waiting

#

You think they would have fixed this before running the event again

inner cave
#

Others in my alliance has rares so was a bit easier to do.
I’m just asking if their will be a way in the future to get the rares (like higher rep) or will their be future events.

#

@carmine lily it is to encourage more pvp

granite zenith
#

and over 2000 rare directives were given out in each grouping of that last hostile leaderboard... so someone has the directives on each server, for free, to flip some of those rares

carmine lily
#

Fuk pvp, you want pvp put rewards for it in the actual event otherwise it’s not worthwhile. Pvp over one armada just means the whales will always win and nobody gets to play. No fun and everyone gives up or quits, scopelys participation metrics drop, no one buys directives, everyone loses

shrewd totem
#

Others in my alliance has rares so was a bit easier to do.
I’m just asking if their will be a way in the future to get the rares (like higher rep) or will their be future events.
@inner cave yes Scoundrel rep

carmine lily
#

@granite zenith only the whales got those directives and they only used them on the largest armadas, no guarantee they flip and they often don’t.

granite zenith
inner cave
#

Still at trouble maker atm

granite zenith
#

i beg to differ that only the whales got those directives... I as a lvl 33 grinded 800 myself in that event... Beating 2 people who had bigger ships...
its not always the size of the dog in the fight, its the size of the fight in the dog @carmine lily

carmine lily
#

@granite zenith it was probably much easier on your server. Good for you, enjoy them.

granite zenith
#

ha... easier... 6BILLION points... beating 2 level 34s with Epic ships, while i did it with a 1.2m Glad and a 1m Cent...
i appreciate that i earned em... and im guessing that 3 lvl 33-34 players on your server did as well

anyone experiencing lag issues redeeming Eclipse Heist Tokens for badges?

#

I turned in 100 after completing armadas today, it deducted the tokens, but no screen popped up with the badge. i hit the back button, and still no badge....

#

that was over an hour ago...

#

restarted the game multiple times since then too

echo dune
#

Usually I vent frustrations but an event which has given us six officer badges has been marvellous. And if APEX is happening each month with badges, then oh yes please!

worthy gull
#

yes to badges!

#

but isn't it 3?

#

or is there another 3 in the premium track?

abstract gate
#

3 in the f2p final milestone (1 of each) and a potential 3 random badges in the event store from tokens earned in the outlaw side events...feedback for our scopely overlords: random badges suck balls

worthy gull
#

ah....3 extra random. gotcha

abstract gate
#

I got 2 command and an engineering so not too bad...sucks to be the guy who gets 3 engineering though (don't worry he'll be along shortly for a rant)

wraith notch
#

I got 2 engineering so far so I'm close to being That Guy but I don't mind random badges so much as long as Scopely keeps providing ways to get more

abstract gate
#

It's an improvement sure, but then again getting pissed on is an improvement if you're currently on fire...

wraith notch
#

Yeah but badges literally exist to gate progress and force tough choices. If Scopely were to get rid of badges fantastic, but that's realistically not happening. So if it's a choice between being able to pick which badges I get and getting random ones more frequently I'd take the latter

inner cave
#

Epics will probably be the casino one in the rom system

ok, so i finally got my random badge...2 hours later

Outlaw event becomes much less fun when you get a bully whale who chases damage metric just hitting any ships in their black jelly when they are still gathering before starting an armada.

So what is with the reward not going to people who had over 70 research. I had 75 done and I got nothing. Support says I don’t qualify anyone else getting screwed?

If you have no time to do armada, you can buy outlaw pack and can clear event.

This event is a circus. My alliance just hit same 31 rare 5x in a row to do 0 damage.

placid moss
#

Debating buying elite battle pass track. What are the rewards like for the extra missions?

viral coral
#

@placid moss not bad rewards from the missions

#

Got some uncommon materials, a little Latinum, and some speedups if I remember correctly

#

But the battle pass itself gives a great amount of uncommon materials for $20

#

That being said, it's about a weeks worth maybe, so that's up to you if it's worth $20 for what you get for free in a week or not

placid moss
#

Yeah, that's what I'm back and forth on.

abstract gate
#

The rss especially the tokens is the main selling point of the elite battle pass tbh, 20€ for all that plus the uc's and rares is the best vfm you can get in the store. Whether that vfm is adequate for you only you can decide

#

The missions are underwhelming at ops39 tbh, there's a donate mission in the first one but you can choose to take a different path, haven't done the second mission chain yet but the first set of rewa4ds are...meagre

abstract gate
#

Literally the second mission in second chain is a donate 750k trit pos for 17 of each ucg3

#

For added irony the mission is called Fair Trade šŸ˜‚

past rock
#

[Beta Paldorios-System S:1543362389] Does anyone know already what can be found here?

noble oar
#

750k for 19 uc each....way worse trades. I'd love to do that a few hundred times

abstract gate
#

Still annoying in paid for content to be robbed of rss, at least the first donate mission was optional

#

At 39 with billions in tokens it's a trivial amount, for lower lvl's still working on their sallys etc it's a significant amount of rss to be forced to sacrifice with no other option

inland hamlet
#

Just archive them till your rolling in it, missions are optional

I built up an envoy and scrapped it for my domination

viral sail
#

Feedback on the Apex event that just ended:

  • The event was interesting and the level of difficulty was appropriate (at least for our alliance)
  • However, the lack of tools for alliance leaders made day 3 of this event a really poor experience (days 1 and 2 were OK). Not having any visibility on which members were online, who completed it and who didn't made it an exercise in pinging 70 people and asking "hey have you done the event yet?" and following up and not knowing if the person was online or not, etc.
    To some degree, CoW already had some of that, but CoW was made up of solo events, so less coordination was required. For this one, we had people (especially leaders and big spenders) not doing armadas because they were saving directives to help those who hadn't completed if/when we could find out who was missing.
fervent folio
#

agreed, we need to be able to see Alliance Contributions on AMS Events, not just ALB

hexed lark
#

Why is my Stella doing worse than my first when it is at same level of upgrade?

#

1st Stella took 3x as much damage in one run. Same level act after rebuilt and upgrade and now it does 1/3 of what it did?

#

Think this chop shop is scamming people🤣

woven belfry
#

Has all the same components, same tier, same level, same officers?

#

And it doesn't automatically get stronger with upgrade (though shouldn't get weaker unless it's not as high level, tier, or officers changed) - it's that scrapping it gives Stella particles which allows you to complete research that makes it stronger. More of an indirect upgrade with each scrap

full cedar
#

Do we know if there’s an event store at the end of this arc? i.e. is there much point in this domination event for the points if you’ve already completed the battle pass milestones.

woven belfry
#

They did say there will be an event store but I doubt it will use the BP points

#

Those are just points trackers - you've already essentially "gotten" the rewards from them through the Battle Pass so there wouldn't be a reason to give extra for them

#

I don't think they even go to your inventory anymore, they're just there to track. If you don't want the other rewards from Dom event and have finished milestones then you don't need to do it for points

Does Anyone have a SS of COW alliance store rewards? thanks in advance, and after probably too!

#

@woven belfry ok thanks. Didn’t the brog points acclimated throughout the arc in last borg arc get used for event store though?

#

Anyone know how many apex medal things are required? Is it worth trading all the event trophies for the apex medals on the basis you can’t get them anywhere else and I can get uncommons from the refinary?

fervent folio
#

no, it was something everyone constantly asked for even though it made no sense because you alrady got rewarded for those points

#

there was an event store after arc 4, but i am not sure what currency was used as I was on my break at that point

#

missed all of Arc 4 and the bit after it

woven belfry
#

@full cedar no those were the Epic Reward Tokens that were explicitly for rewards at the end, not already used for tracking BP progress

deep steeple
#

Will the rogue event trophies get deleted it they are not spent? Reason I ask is I get 43 apex shards for 5 tokens but when ops is higher I will get a lot more and I'm not going to be doing any apex research soon.

Plus some new currencies introduced at the end. But not the Borg Points.

Is alliance jumping considered cheating when getting help finish scrapping stella in event?
As ppl jump alliances and gets their scrapping finished quicker then the ones stayin in their alliance.

fervent folio
#

no, not cheating, and if they did it during APEX Alliance Events they missed out on the rewards from that

sharp hawk
#

Well they started doin it today and ive seen ppl raise 50k+ points within a hour

sharp hawk
#

Funny is... 20ppl from same alliance doin it and they kill stella event on all tiers as u cant compete with them unless jumping alliances.

#

Easy fix that is set up timer on player not able join any alliance within x hours.
As for now you cant rejoin alliance for 8h but may join other alliances.....

teal jackal
#

Yea, they can't rejoin for 8 hours. So don't really see how that will benefit them much.

#

Ahh nm. Guessing they are forming new alliances and jumping to several.

fervent folio
#

or like on my server, there are groups of Alliances, they jump from one to the other, pass leadership and just keep jumping until they've been in all the Alliances in the goup

#

In some cases, yes, creating additional Alliances just to jump into and out of

#

I still don't believe it's cheating, more "clever use of game mechanics" but definitely something Scopely should look at and find a way to prevent

jaunty sonnet
#

<@&509691205798592532> Can you share the calculation for scrapping please? I though it was as follows:
Base Speed/(1+scrapyard bonus+chop shop bonus) is this correct?

shrewd totem
#

There is also alliance helps

#

I would calculate it like this:
Base time-(Base scrap timeƗ1%ƗX)=Y
X is number of helps you can get and each help is 1% reduction then
Y/(1+scrapyard bonus+research bonus)

jaunty sonnet
#

So not My calculation x (1-no. of helps x 0.01)?

jaunty sonnet
#

I figured out the scrapyard but when I apply the helps it doesn’t tally up.

#

You can’t calculate helps before the scrapyard and chop shop bonus can you? It comes off after they have been applied???

robust vapor
#

@jaunty sonnet @median slate I'm pretty sure helps come off of remaining time, so they're diminishing effect and depend on when they actually push the button 😬

jaunty sonnet
#

@shrewd totem I checked out your calculation and it’s actually the same as the one I already do and yet it is wrong. My lvl5 Stella should only take 11hr 15mins after helps as I have scrapyard 36 (78%) and chop shop 4 (0.14%) and 17% for helps. It ends up being 11hrs 25mins though.

#

@robust vapor that might be the case - I’ll check. I have two screenshots that I can check it with

robust vapor
#

Probably be more like (0.99^n) X remaining time, if they did it all straight away? šŸ¤” I think

#

What's the base time?

jaunty sonnet
#

Nope diminishing returns with all 17 helps happening at the 12th minute of scrapping (the worst it could be) would still mean a total scrap time of only 11hr 17mins

shrewd totem
#

Hmm

jaunty sonnet
#

Weirdly it works if you don’t include the 3% for fourth level chop shop.

#

Either way something appears to not be working here

robust vapor
#

I get 11 hours and 25 minutes?

jaunty sonnet
#

Yes if you don’t include the 3% for fourth level of chop shop

robust vapor
#

78% and 14% you said?

jaunty sonnet
#

Yes

#

92% not 89%

shrewd totem
#

It works

#

It isnt 11 hour 25 mins

#

It is 11.25 hours which is 11 hours 15 mins

robust vapor
#

I got it with those bonuses..

jaunty sonnet
#

My scrapping is ACTUALLY taking 11 hrs and 25 mins

robust vapor
#

He said the answer is 11 hours and 25 minutes, which is what I get.

jaunty sonnet
#

Not through working out

#

@robust vapor no the screenshot is what I get with 89% not 92%

#

This is with 92%

robust vapor
#

I don't care about your screenshot though šŸ˜‚ using 78% and 14% I get what the game says.

jaunty sonnet
#

First SS is with base scrapping less bonuses but no helps

#

Second is after all 17 helps which is 12 minutes later and therefore total time is 11hr 25 mins

#

@robust vapor not using that scrapping time calculation it isn’t

robust vapor
#

1562 minutes / 1.92 = 813.5416 (13:33)
X (0.99^17) = 685. 7693 (11:25).
I also don't care what formula the mods give you 😜

#

So: (base / (1 + bonus)) X (0.99^helps) šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø

jaunty sonnet
#

Ahhh so it isn’t 1% reduction then

#

Gotcha

robust vapor
#

It is, but 1% on current time

jaunty sonnet
#

Another Scopely math screw you type thing.

robust vapor
#

Always get helps before speedups, there's a reason for that šŸ˜‰

jaunty sonnet
#

No that isn’t how you work that out mate. Using the helps as a ā€˜to the power’ reduces the second and every subsequent help to less than 1% in an ever increasing amount

robust vapor
#

Yes, because it's looking at remaining time.

jaunty sonnet
#

Mate it really isn’t.

robust vapor
#

99% of 100, then 99% of that, and 99% of that..

jaunty sonnet
#

That is not how that would go

#

I get what you are saying now

robust vapor
#

If I did it as 1% I'd need to write the formula more complicated, 99% of the answer is easier than answer - 1% of answer, for same result. And by using 99% I can also take it to the power easily.

jaunty sonnet
#

No no I get it totally now

robust vapor
#

Awesome šŸ‘

#

Catch is still that the later they do the helps the less benefit you get, but should be ok..

jaunty sonnet
#

That I disagree with but without testing I cannot confirm it

robust vapor
#

It's easy to test. Go break a ship with a long repair time, then speedup most if the repair and see how much benefit you get from the helps šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø
But I've looked at it with ops upgrades before (Alliance hopping for more speedups), so it should be right.

jaunty sonnet
#

Your calculation takes into consideration the fact that the second help is 1% of the time remaining after the first help is done but not any duration of time between them

robust vapor
#

Yeah, you can't factor that in so easily, that's what my comment was about. You'd need to have a separate part for every help and know the times applied to get that answer. For an active Alliance it'll be close enough though.

jaunty sonnet
#

There is nothing in your calculation that states time lapse in the remaining time. So it’s a calculation that only holds true for helps all arriving right at the start.

#

Though tbh that isn’t a problem for me as we have 72 people in our alliance and most are active

#

Thank you for helping me out with this bud, very helpful.

robust vapor
#

I can write it up to take time lapse into account if you really want šŸ˜‚ but I was happy to just put the disclaimer that it doesn't take that into consideration.

jaunty sonnet

I’m a geek but I’m not that much of a geek that I’m into nerd country so I’m all good mate

Yep it's 1% of current time remaining - easy to see if you do a 9 hour ship repair, rush 8 hours of it and see how much each help takes off the remaining

It just occurred to me also that if this alliance hopping was to be allowed by Scopely that Players could be scrapping for G3 materials from envoys every day. Just leave their ships in suliban space to get the bps and then jump alliances for the scrapping speed ups so no need to ever buy packs again as they’ll have a steady stream of g3 for free. I’m not going to do this but that is the precedent set by allowing this to happen...

what else would you call that?

it's not PvP, it's not Armadas

it's not research

I call pve. Hostel hunting faction

Clear the coast is the pve event@fathom bolt

waxen sedge

That calendar is the outlaw events, not the battlepass events. Clear the coast is pve.

The outlaw points milestones are not what is represented in the calendar. What is represented is outlaw specific events. Apex, clear the coast, the armadas thatll be the next 2 days

Two days. Straight of this is bs

#

Domination is definitely not pve either by any reasonable stretch of the definition.

Bottom line I’m 5k away. From lev 10 in battle pass. So I don’t have the sally. After 2 days spending building researching I’ve got nothing left to complete this event

waxen sedge

Sorry to hear that, but you still have two more days of events to go.

fathom bolt
#

And FYI clear the cost is not a battle pass points pve

waxen sedge
#

If you can handle swarm you should be fine as Sundays swarm will probably be the battlepass event.

#

As far as I can recall, none of the events on that calendar were the events that awarded battle pass points. I suppose I'll grant you it was a bit misleading to label it battle pass season.

fathom bolt
#

Maybe but. That’s not my gripe when u post a calendar that says 23/24 pve ect ect do it or else shove the calendar

waxen sedge
#

Again, the clear the coast event is what that referred to and it did run/is running and is a pve event. Its just not the event that rewards the battle pass points. Earlier in the week we had faction hunt for battle pass points, which is pve, but the calendar notes the apex event as the calendar specifically is listing the outlaw events.

Calendar is for NEW OUTLAW events not for battlepass points

And it is 100% accurate so far

fervent folio
#

ah, that makes sense

#

honestly I did not pay too much attention to the calendar, I just do whatever events are in front of me every day. I see how it would have been helpful for people to plan to save Armada Directives though. I'm not of a level to do them though, so did not affect me

fathom bolt
#

Then it should read outlaws 2 not titled BP at all

shrewd totem
#

Cant you see HUGE Outlaws 2 at the bottom?

fathom bolt
#

Listen you know what I’m getting at there are events that offer no battle pass points. To complete battle pass So. Y are they still considered as such

waxen sedge
#

I get the gripe, the heading of the calendar is a bit misleading. But we are basically at the end of it and none of the events on it have been the ones that award battle pass points so this should not have been a big surprise.

#

Also scopely never releases calendars of daily events, whether a battlepass is running or not, and having the ability to complete a domination milestone event at any time is something you should plan for.

#

Just an FYI for the future, I understand it stinks.

#

Thank you guys.

Hopefully the weekend events are easy for you to complete and get the last 5k points.

Does anyone remember if COW has a tier up ship criteria? Seems it’s not the ALM but maybe the ALB and solo.

I just wish they had scaled the event for new servers. I made the mistake of rushing to get as high as possible to do event stuff, and now I need millions of parsteel to do anything and no one to raid for it LOL

I saw a CoW in the alliance store today unlocking in 3 days.. might be what happens after this Arc ends. was not in there for long, but it was there.

I have asked if the crucible of war is starting in 3 days or if it showing in the alliance store was a mistake and got no reply at all from scopely

Business as usual.

#

Guys... wasnt there some event items we could redeem in the alliance store? They disappeared for me. Same for everyone else?

hushed hornet
#

They did!!! Did they seriously remove items from the store before the arc finished??? šŸ¤£šŸ™ˆ

#

I saved those trophies for later because I wasn't sure on what to get... didn't expect them to remove those items so soon! They normally leave them on for ages. I hope it's a mistake or there will be a lot of people pissed off today...

distant smelt
#

Umm.....business as usual.

#

Let the chair throwing commence! 🤣

late plover
#

They had a removal timer on them. The were gone 1 day after the event finished. The apex event will be an ongoing monthly thing though so it’ll be back

hushed hornet
#

Meh šŸ˜‘ never happened to me before in all fairness. Yes there was a timer, yes I didn't pay too much attention to it but typically in the past they left stores on for AGES... especially when the themed arc isn't finished yet

#

I wonder if I'll get to use those trophies at some point or not.

You will - it’s a monthly recurring event now apparently

Send a message to support in game. We can't do anything about it.

also, as with almost every time we do some of these events... there is a noticeable lag, both in respawns, and points registering... it may simply be that as well

#

If it’s an across the board issue you can bring it up to Panic to pass along

#

I don’t really care about the points, completed solo anyhow, just making note of it in case it’s more than an isolated occurrence. In game support is a joke

while we may all feel that sometimes their actual support is lacking, they ARE the only ones that can make the required adjustment account wise

@silent timber see my post 2 above yours...

fervent folio
#

while support can be slow and may give unsatisfactory answers, it's the only official avenue and tickets there are logged and those metrics looked at. Just posting it here does next to nothing, but every ticket about the same issue stacks up and more tickets for the same issue mean something is more likely to get looked at

silent timber
#

It’s frustrating for sure!

distant smelt
#

Outlaw armadas......worst event yet.

robust patio
#

I am sure the thinking could be that they are hoping these armada glitches will promote some kind of pvp action of attack and defense however as all servers are community driven most have rules regarding this so we are at an impasse.

So it seems the jelly package is back in the shop at least for my level (30). Was there an announcement?

Is it on purpose that the amount of heist tokens is reduced today?

severe bridge

I think this is the same heist token payout from the last armada event. But yes it is lower than the eclipse hostile event.

It's the same @unreal fox rememer, this is a two day event. so the idea was 50 per day, to get 100 to get yourself a badge at the end of this 2 day cycle.

How do you unlock that system? Through research? Or is it part 3?

Think it’s through rep, then you unlock warp token

Oh ok

#

Warp tokens in the rogue faction store aren't for the system in stuntjohns screenshot, unless there's a second one at some point

Not sure its related to outlaws at all being in rom space, might be though since it seemed to be added with the newest patch

prime Stella eficiency realy 100% it's make Stella don't need uranium at all?

or again is a wrong description

?

robust vapor
#

@agile flame efficiency formula is: base / (1 + bonuses)

silent kayak
#

been wanting to say this for a a few days now. SCOPLEY...HOW FREAKING DARE YOU?????!!!!??? You are creating events that actually create splits inside alliances from players who can do certain events, and those who cannot. At first, i thought my teammates were causing this rift. I have had time to ponder it and have come to this inescapable conclusion, that it is SCOPLEY who is responsible. By blanking some players from getting rewards for participating-even though they have strong enough ships to do so- You are cheating the Alliance as a whole by denying the Alliance the use of some of its members. You setup the event for an Alliance total points earned and then deny that alliance to compete equally. I do get it, Life isn't fair. But, when you purposely RIG the event to favor a few alliances over the rest, "fair" isn't even part of the equation. So I ask again SCOPLEY????...HOW FREAKING DARE YOU?????

shrewd totem
#

🤣

agile flame
#

@robust vapor so the description of 100% was supose to be 50%

robust vapor
#

@agile flame no, it's a 100 bonus to efficiency. You're already running at 100% efficiency, now you're running at 200% efficiency šŸ¤”

prisma geode
#

So I am officially over not being able to obtain or level officers that Scopely put in the game. Can’t even try and level or obtain with money. So why did they put them in the game?

#

It’s not that hard to put them in the officers packs! Just shear laziness on Scopelys end or incompetence either one. But hey avatars!

languid cove
#

Which ones are you talking about?

prisma geode
#

Really?

languid cove
#

There are definitely a few that are hard to get, but most of the ones people use are accessible

prisma geode

Borg, Zhou, Harrison , jaylah. Mudd. The others that are dark

shrewd totem
#

Exclusive content

languid cove
#

Harrison and jaylah are basically out of the game. Zhou is only in COW, Mudd is brand new

shrewd totem
#

Every game has it

languid cove
#

The borg is annoying, but they aren’t very good anyway. And the borg are coming back so I wouldn’t worry about it

prisma geode
#

Some I have others no. But. being able to level. Just take them out of the game or give access

#

@languid cove disagree on the Borg.

languid cove
#

Hard to get character shards is like the 200th ranked problem with this game

prisma geode
#

In your opinion

#

Game economy is #1

languid cove
#

Let’s get targeting back to where it was, then we are start dealing with anything else

prisma geode
#

But those officers are huge in pvp.

shrewd totem
#

Then you should have gotten them when they were available

languid cove
#

Which is why are exclusive content, they were far more available in the past. Rewarding players for being around a long time is what games do

prisma geode
#

@shrewd totem you are right need to up my $100 a week to a $1000.

languid cove
#

I don’t even have Harrison, I didn’t see it as a priority, imagine how I feel now

prisma geode
#

Harrison doesn’t matter at higher levels

shrewd totem
#

Only useful officer I dont have is Harisson

#

And that is because I was too low level during that time

prisma geode
#

Harrison is sweet under 5 rounds

#

But can’t level so we will never know

shrewd totem
#

He is still op

prisma geode
#

Maxed Kahn base stats are op, if that translated to Harrison would be worth it

shrewd totem
#

Harisson doesn't need stats,its his ability that matters

prisma geode
#

For 1 round. Which means nothing outside of 4 rounds. He’s a negative at that point.

shrewd totem
#

You aware that most base battles are 1-2 rounds and in PvE you can kill almost every hostile in 1 round with Harisson on Sally?

prisma geode
#

At what level? Are we talking apples and oranges here?

#

Because at level 39-40 Harrison ability for 1 round does not out way 1000’s of base attack defend shield. On any other officers

crisp abyss
#

2 days of swarm events and no Khan, this is such a cheat. They tried to remove Khan for 1 Ultra pull and people complained, so now they just say during a battlepass no Khan. And if the BP keep coming that means most of the time you won't get Khan

prisma geode
#

Regular Kahn shards will be back, think it was setup for ark before they said they were moving away from ultra recruit.

crisp abyss
#

but then another arc will start in 2 weeks

#

so maybe 1 or 2 weeks of Khan max

#

bet this will be done during all arc's as they wanted to remove Khan

prisma geode
#

No the whales wanted them to move away from the Kahn shards.

#

Because they all maxed Kahn because his maxed stats are almost double every other officer. That and they don’t want transport patterns for the other officers they have maxed they want ultra recruit shards for the new officers.

#

@crisp abyss that’s why

#

@shrewd totem please give me a reason why that statement is wrong.

crisp abyss
#

But there are a lot of us who don't even have him nevermind maxed him

#

and then also transporter shards are useful for a lot of people working on those officers

#

could offer a choice like in a mission

#

or a token

#

so can get either Ultra tokens or the normal Khan shards

#

for people who are still working on him

prisma geode
#

You are not thinking like a whale that has his officers maxed, has a discord channel with other whales and a Scopely rep that listens to all there concerns.

crisp abyss
#

It's a nice way to disgruntle a lot of players

#

That's why there was so much push back to them removing Khan

#

and the fact it's only 1 Ultra pull

#

they could even add Khan to the Ultra officers in that case

prisma geode
#

Kind of why Batman stopped chiming in.

crisp abyss
#

I know I get it you guys probably hear people complaining a lot

#

just saying it's made swarm Sunday's a lot less relevant now

#

lets see if he comes back next week after this arc finishes

prisma geode
#

I don’t have Kahn maxed and am not a whale but I guess a dolphin

crisp abyss
#

I've only been working on him for awhile I'm about 15 short of unlocking him

#

was making good progress then they removed him

#

so kind of makes it hard now

#

and I never get him from the aug store officer chest

#

I was delaying going to lvl 32 as swarms get a lot harder so I could keep doing swarm Sunday's, but not much point now

prisma geode
#

You need, pike

#

Pike, Moreau, tlann for swarms will change your game 1000%

#

Pike, Moreau, Chen for hostiles will change your faction outlook 10000%

#

Those combinations are the key to progressing in this game

dapper drum
#

depends what you are fighting

#

if traders and explorers yes

#

battleships chen with tlaan and moreau is more effective

prisma geode
#

@dapper drum false, that crew setup tlann for swarms and Borg. Chen for your faction hostiles survey through the triangle use Chen.

dapper drum
#

has anyone tested out the fix they did with pike and moreau synergy while using a 3rd shakedown

#

not false

prisma geode
#

Yes

dapper drum
#

even borg using pike with moreau and tlaan kills 10% less

prisma geode
#

It is false

dapper drum
#

than chen with tlaan and moreau

#

if you are getting more with pike then you are fighting to weak of a battleship

prisma geode
#

@dapper drum Chen was good for lower level Borg. Tlann takes over because of the firing pattern in the higher levels. According to Lcars I have tested and proven many times on level 33 Borg.

dapper drum
#

and if you are going after vet battleships using pike moreau and tlaan you will die the moment they crit an energy

#

I take on lvl 33 with a tier 7 vidar

#

I kill 10% more without using pike

#

so every 10 trips I'm saving 1 tw cell

#

and my moreau is only tier 3

#

tier 5 moreau without pike on battleships makes him look like a cadet

#

pike has 3 purposes, swarms and traders and for the sacrificial crit destroyer on armadas

prisma geode
#

I get a better outcome with 5 7 and 9 of 10 on swarms then pike, Moreau, tlann

dapper drum
#

if you have 5 yes that penetration will destroy them quick

#

but thats only valid on borg

#

using borg decius

prisma geode
#

But pike, Moreau, tlann. Is better the. Chen

dapper drum
#

if you are using pike

#

but not better than chen with moreau and tlaan

prisma geode
#

Lmao, ok

dapper drum
#

tier 3 moreau takes all hits from the battlehips down, focusing on only 1 type leaves you open to heavy crits

prisma geode
#

Yes pike is the key. You need to slow down and listen

dapper drum
#

pike with moreau and tlaan is not better than chen with moreau and tlaan vs battleships

#

I watch maxed vidars kill just as much as my tier 7 on lvl 33 borg

prisma geode
#

Pike, Moreau, Chen should be used for all faction hostiles.

dapper drum
#

and they are using pike with moreau and tlaan

#

no

#

chen is useless against interceptors

#

pike moreau and chen is vs explorers/traders

prisma geode
#

Pike, Moreau, Tlann, should be used for swarm and Borg

dapper drum
#

pike moreau and tlaan is good vs interceptors but weaker than chen moreau and tlaan vs battleships

#

and again I'm only using a tier 3 moreau

#

tier 4 + makes pike with moreau and tlaan a joke vs battleships

#

comparing to chen moreau tlaan

prisma geode
#

Go hit a veteran anything with pike Moreau tlann, then do the same with Pike, Moreau, Chen. Report back to me on how it goes for you.

dapper drum
#

a veteran battleship won't matter what you use you will die unless you are using a tier 5 epic g3 or better

#

1 crit with a kinetic or energy is all it takes

prisma geode
#

What level ops are you darkprince?

dapper drum
#

without pike and moreua with an academy ability they hit 500k to 1m

#

so if you block only energy or kinetic you can't do both you die regardless

#

i'm 34

prisma geode
#

So you are ass backwards follow what I said you will progress faster

dapper drum
#

no thanks I'll rely on actual fact

#

and experience

#

money does not equal skill

#

and regurgitation the he says she says because no one will bother to check

crisp abyss
#

I have Pike/Moreau with max Tlann and almost max chen

#

just level 35 swarms are really hard

dapper drum
#

academy crew should be maxed by time you reach ops 24 anyways

crisp abyss
#

my franklin is only lvl 28

prisma geode
#

@dapper drum lmao academy crew? You were just telling me I was doing hostiles wrong.

dapper drum
#

chen and tlaan are academy crew

#

yeah you are so stupid no point bothering to argue with a dull brick wall

#

chen with tlaan and moreau > pike with moreau and tlaan vs battleships

#

when a 1.2m vidar kills same as a 800k vidar its obvious they 1.2m using pike is wrong

prisma geode
#

My Vidar crew, pike, Moreau and tlann are generally 5-10k below this crew in rss gathered

#

Throw Chen on instead of tlann 20-30k below

#

Hitting level 33 Borg hostiles

dapper drum
#

because you are still using pike

prisma geode
#

Lmao what?

#

Dude drink another Busch light

dapper drum
#

when comes to battleships even the borg compromising between 2 is the better choice

#

so you take 1/2 the hits from 100k to 10k but thats still a 60kavg

#

or you take all 100k hits to 25k thats a 50k avg

#

chen with moreua and tlaan is > pike with moreau chen/tlaan

prisma geode
#

So you have your own channel in lcars, with the heading lcars is full of shit, listen to me,

dapper drum
#

lcars is a tool not a definitive source

#

all user input

prisma geode
#

My testing says you are full of shit

dapper drum
#

technical stuff is accurate but not everything is going to be exact for everyone

prisma geode
#

Yes, if anyone actually listens to you I would laugh at them

dapper drum
#

of course because I know nothing of the game I'm just struggling along trying to be like everyone else thinking like everyone else because I'm told to do so, yeah I can see you laughing at someone for actually trying

I mean if you could actually provide any evidence I would listen. But none so far

prisma geode
#

Screen shots or it didn’t happen

#

I just showed you I have a 1M+ Vidar with 5 of 10 backs up my claims

dapper drum
#

all it takes is a few crits and pike loses out big time to a balanced mitigation

#

5of10 and 7of10 are completey different then PMC/PMT

#

and 7of10 is specialized only to borg

prisma geode
#

The fact you are attacking pike brings your claim down about 98%

dapper drum
#

against battleships

#

yes

#

a battle without 0 crits pike with moreau tlaan/chen whoever you choose takes more damage than chen with moreau and tlaan

#

a battle with crits PMT/PMC loses even more

#

you can't choose which weapon type will fire the hardest or crit the most

prisma geode
#

You are like level 26 right?

dapper drum
#

nope lvl 34

prisma geode
#

Go hit a veteran anything with your crew combo instant death

dapper drum
#

PMC vs explorers/traders there is no comparison with any crew

#

same with PMT vs interceptors

#

but with battleships pike isn't so mighty

#

even with PMC/PMT without lvl 20+ epic g3 you are dying still

prisma geode
#

No one that wants to advance listen to this guy

dapper drum
#

vets aren't hitting in the 50k to 100k range they are hitting 500k to 2m range

#

chen with moreau and tlaan will kill more battleships in normal battle than PMC or PMT will

#

proven in lvl 33 borg space and gyahan

#

unless you can kill a lvl 33 borg before their kinetic charges then PMC will be better

prisma geode
#

Obvious troll I am over it.

suit yourself bias is what bias does

@dapper drum you can’t make up data that no one else can replicate and say we are wrong.

I don't have to prove you are wrong you have to prove I am wrong

You haven’t proven you are right

I'll use my combos because they work better you have better battleship crew than PMC/PMT so doesn't matter to you

prisma geode

No screen shots no battle logs nothing

not my problem you are trying to prove me wrong not other way

Prove it, or stop trolling

dapper drum

I don't have to prove it I know it works

you are the doubter not me

go run 100 battles of each and prove me wrong with all your SS

anything less and you will let your bias sit in

being challenged force you into political views now 🤣

#

whats next? my dad can beat your dad?

prisma geode
#

I have been nothing but supportive for you to produce the data to back up your claims

#

@dapper drum my dad is dead so you win that one,

dapper drum
#

I've done the leg work your data doesn't suit me

#

our techs and ships are different

#

chen as captain with tlaan is 30% more dodge that puts me at 65k at tier 7

#

reduces energy 30 and tlaan is 20 on kinetic, moreau is -50% mitigation

#

overall vs a borg or klingon battleship this is stronger than PMC or PMT

prisma geode
#

It works for you I would not recommend to every other person that plays the game.

#

@dapper drum data including screenshots of your exploits would be appreciated.

#

With your crew combinations

#

You know the science with data to prove it.

Jesus guy's I was just giving out about Scopely removing Khan from the swarm eventšŸ˜…

indigo perch

My reds measure is kills per hull or loot per hull depending on what the goal is. Some other combo might have a chance at being better but pm and pmt are the most consistent by far. Repeatable results, trio after trio.

dapper drum
#

even against the unpredictable borg probes CMT is 15 kills to 15 kills vs PMT

#

CMT mitigates more damage after the energy and kinetic reduction

#

PMT helps only if the borg probes crit more often on their kinetic

indigo perch
#

Mine is comparable to 798. 15 kills, really? Bah!

prisma geode
#

Crews are so different by there level blanket statements and ability don’t make up for it

828k vs lvl 33 is taking 17716 hull damage total no crits using CMT

prisma geode

Because below decks are everything for maxing a ships ability and bonus

#

31082 with a kinetic crit CMT

#

26941 hull damage with PMT

#

crit on energy

#

20507 hull damage no crits

#

with PMT

#

CMT mitigates more damage incoming even if its total reduction before hand is less then PMT

@dapper drum still haven’t figured out how to max a ships potential. Would love to see his crewing of a triangle for pvp.

#

Lmao that’s the same crew I said you should use and you said not to.šŸ¤¦ā€ā™‚ļø

dapper drum
#

thats part 2 of it

#

CMT takes less hull damage overall

#

and after 2 to 3 trips will kill 3 to 4 more overall

#

the mitigation after its incoming is greater than the reduction of focusing on only 1 type of weapon

#

and you are bring both types down enough that the increase in dodge works in your favor

#

XDarkPrinceXToday at 10:55 PM
31082 with a kinetic crit CMT
26941 hull damage with PMT
crit on energy
20507 hull damage no crits
with PMT
CMT mitigates more damage incoming even if its total reduction before hand is less then PMT

#

with no crits avg hull damage is 17.5k with CMT

#

avg with PMT is 20k

#

PMC will be worse if they crit on kinetic as it will be in the 500k range

prisma geode
dapper drum
#

and this is vs borg probes

#

thats not the same with 5of10 when you are running high tier officers the mitigation boost is much higher

#

and you can kill them before they even fire kinetic

#

CMT vs regular faction battleships and non faction battleships hits better then PMT or PMC even more than vs probes

#

but again spending = skill right

#

and even without 5of10 your vidar at that boost will kill a 33 before it can fire its kinetic and thats when PMC is best

@dapper drum your right me being in this game for 18 months and being a beta and alpha tester in others. Makes me have no idea what I am talking about. Even though you have provided zero data to back up your claims.

dapper drum
#

just showed build and SS of battle logs with both and CMT took less hull damage in on avg

#

by 2.5k per battle

#

bought not built kind of guy right

prisma geode
#

Not going to make a special trip to give you real time data. But everything you have said contradicts everything I have seen and everything lcars have said. So I am going to stick with you are a troll that really just doesn’t understand yet.

dapper drum
#

yep because I just started playing this year not when it came out

#

and grinded my way up instead of spending mortages on a game

#

actually I just started playing last month if thats the case

prisma geode
#

Like I said we are not dealing with the same

dapper drum
#

yes you bought not built

#

I get that

#

I've been around since before scotty work shop and lcars was even a glimpse of a thought

#

and I have better things to spend my money on

prisma geode
#

So we were around same time, you are welcome for me supporting the game so it’s still here.

#

But my crews and ships still say you are 100% wrong. Sorry

dapper drum
#

your crew and ships don't fit the criteria of the argument

#

PMT is not better than CMT vs battleships

prisma geode
#

Just stop

dapper drum
#

vs borg probes CMT is 10% more kills than PMT

#

on regular battleships its 20% more

prisma geode
#

Go to porn hub or wherever else you go

dapper drum
#

someone who doesn't spend has to be conservative on expenses in game

#

I've grinded for my g3 epics and for my triple faction lock with and without pike

#

and when it comes down to killing battleships CMT is the way to go

prisma geode
#

And you got your g3 epics without spending?

dapper drum
#

yes

#

nothing went into the bps for them

#

from lvl 28 to 34 was all planned

prisma geode
#

Are you on the founders server?

dapper drum
#

lvl 34 shipsyard finished after I finally got enough credits for ent

#

no

#

my server started end of december 2018

#

150 days of faction hunts dailies scouts and charged probe exchange

robust vapor
#

You're better off hunting explorers against triangle than PMT against battleships..

dapper drum
#

I use PMC for traders in groombridge and timore

#

klingon space 39's are harder to come so I goto gyahan and use CMT for quick dailies

prisma geode
#

@dapper drum what’s your server number?

dapper drum
#

29

robust vapor
#

Even with cadets you're probably better off hunting explorers against triangle (in my testing, but I haven't tried the Chen captain one)

prisma geode
#

Your a liar about the g3 epics and I am done . @dapper drum straight up 100% troll

dapper drum
#

CMT is +30% defenses -30 energy -20 kinetic and 50% mitigation

robust vapor
#

.. I got a D4 without buying any faction credits or blueprints?

dapper drum
#

I am not lying you just can't come to believe someone can do it without having to take out a second mortage or max a credit card

#

spending does not equal skill

#

I have my ent and 2/3 to augur and 1/3 to d4

split sequoia
#

i got my augur freeeeeee

#

fed and klingon on 120k credits

robust vapor
#

@dapper drum I keep meaning to try these Chen captain ones, I'll get around to it eventually 😬 but outside of that, just hit explorers, they're chumps bšŸ˜‚

split sequoia
#

getting there

eager hill
#

i grinded both ent and augur. It is doable if you are playing for over a year

split sequoia
#

free epics isnt bull

robust vapor
#

Took me over 18 months, but I wasn't doing Armadas 😶

prisma geode
#

The epic is not why I am calling him a troll it is everything he said before that

dapper drum
#

150 days or less from 0 credits

prisma geode
#

The epic was the cherry

eager hill
#

Yeah he is a troll at heart šŸ˜‚

dapper drum
#

180 if you don't include random FH's

prisma geode
#

The crew combos you are promoting, tell me you don’t have an epicšŸ˜‚

dapper drum
#

you just can't take your bias being attacked

#

CMT is greater than PMT/PMC on battleships

prisma geode
#

Not bias your lack of evidence or facts to back up anything you say

dapper drum
#

i've spent just around 3200USD and thats on monthly packes going upto lvl 28 and NS/Vidar/Jelly/Primes

#

never bought a faction ships

#

the 3 offiers packs I bought was for badges and promotion

prisma geode
#

Lmao at that crew combo, still doesn’t prove its yours

dapper drum
#

I showed you the proof

robust vapor
#

Because battleships sand interceptors are mixed weapons, go just PMC on explorers instead for excellent results.. I hunt explorers with my D4 all the time 😶

dapper drum
#

you ignored it because it attacked your bias

#

I do go vs traders/explorers

#

but with klingons I don't want to destroy my rep as I'm growing it

#

so I attack regualr battleships
