Are the stella rewards based on Stella tier? If yes, how are the rewards calculated when a person has two Stella's? Lowest tier Stella sets the rewards? Having a T4 Stella that requires Rare Uranium, I would expect max rewards to give Rare Uranium. What gives?

@pulsar owl I was just going to ask about that. I am using Harry Mudd as captain so by the description, a win should be +3 (default) and then +5 (Mudd bonus) for a total of +8, but I'm definitely not getting 8 points per win

Sooo... after 24 hours of complaints about pvp, Scopely's response is to run 2 pvp events side by side? In higher end systems a lot of people can't reach with the required ships?

Atleast designate 1 or 2 lower level systems for us weaklings

@torn mirage I'm having to do the same thing. My Discovery is about 75K but every one I've seen is 100K+ strength so I just send my ship out and wait for somebody to blow it up in a few minutes.
hexed gorge
Actually enjoyed todays pvp events. More of that please 👍
torn summit
We don’t need to cancel PvP, just fix it. Don’t give full points for defeating the lowest level you can hit at your level is a good start. Win against a player 3 levels below and higher gets full points, 4 levels or more less and get half points. Add a note that any player defeated at level 39 and above is full points as well to keep the whales happy.
All of those ships were idle until a 31 arrived, then the 35 attacked it. None of them were the same alliance. All just waiting for “easy” kills.
A 28 arrived a moment later and they all moved to hit it, but continued to ignore each other.
hexed gorge
I agree, bracketing of the points depending on level would be good, just like the fact we're getting a bit more pvp interaction than we've had before

Dude there is like 30 people 40+ on my server playing. So we need another burst event? Get over the pvp banding. Your leaderboard is not the pvp banding.

@broken hatch the picture you posted was a loss.
marsh flame
I like the disco event. The leaderboard done in brackets and different systems works well for lower levels at least (can’t say about 30+) everyone in the same ships leaves it for the most part up to officer choice and tactics. The Stella one seemed to be more along the lines of. Who has the biggest Stella and Khan. Can’t beat a Stella twice my size and 10 ops levels up so just use vemet and get 3 points that way. Which isn’t so bad tbh. If they ever do a Stella pvp leaderboard. I’d hope they separate players by level tier via different systems like in disco
median roost
Dear Event planners.....don’t double up on Rank pvp and regular pvp. It just keeps whales and high levels smashing lower levels. They have no reason to stop. It would be nice to maybe have a chance to win a fight.

what are people using for crew for the disco? I have pike but nothing that has synergy with him. I'm only L21 so my discovery is still a baby

You didn’t start out with 0 shield. He just quickly stripped it away. Read your battle report
rapid nova
<@&509690795536941056> Thank you for the Stella pvp event today. It was great to be able to use old content to complete a non-time consuming event that rewarded progression.
feral spoke
@barren night Correct and verified, however, Vemet failed to activate in this battle. Hasn't this bug been around since Launch?
rapid nova
@feral spoke Vemet reduces your shield health when burning. So it looks like zero shields, but it is how Scopley shows your "damaged via weapons" shield loss vs your "officer shield damage". Kind of confusing, but it looks right. Damaged via weapons would be red. black bar means damaged via officer shield damage.
barren night
Vemet will launch if your shields are depleted in battle. Not stripped
cosmic sage
He failed to activate because shield wasn't depleted through damage just deleted through burning.
feral spoke
shield was depleted by the end of the battle
robust vapor
It's not burning, it's the ability activated while burning. Same deal with Yuki and Burnham.
cosmic sage
Yea thats what I meant
Vemets ability description says it has to be an attack that depletes the shield. Officer abilities don't count as an attack. So the ship was burning and vemets officer ability depleted shield to zero so the last attack couldn't do any shield damage.
And you can see this in the health bar its completely blank for shield, not even a tiny bit of red.
rapid nova
Not really. Rule of thumb is the first person to lose shields loses the PVP battle. That is why the Enterprise is OP as hell.
feral spoke
I dont care about losing, I just want 2 points instead of 1
robust vapor
Doesn't even need to be completely black, you could have 99% from attacks and then it triggers to remove that last bit..
cosmic sage
Just don't have someone that can activate burning or strip shields
robust vapor
You can't always choose your opponent though 😂 I paired up with someone, told them off for using Burnham. Went full synergy Vemet and we traded triple kills (get in quick and they can res twice).

Anyone know what's going on with the Disco PvP scoring?
I'm getting 3 points for defending with Spock as Captain and only 2 for successfully attacking with him
Same two ships and crews
robust vapor
however.. it's been reported this morning that you only get the officer bonus to points if you initiate combat.
points should be higher when attacking. it's possible that the 3 is just the ship (no other points added quietly) and the 2 is the Spock portion of the points (3 for win added quietly).

The next ship Scopely launches should be the ISS Whaambulance. Shoots frozen tears at near luminal velocity. Considered a kinetic weapon.
cloud crest
Well then why is scopely listening? Those are ftp players for the most part & honestly I saw more of them fighting than dolphins/whales
tired glade
I think they delayed the event because too many alliances were cheating to get points or they need to figure out how to give the farmers more incentive to play their game 😂
river sedge
My alliance went out and hunted everyone everywhere. It was fun.
tired glade
I consider myself almost F2P. As I said earlier I’ve bought the arc packs and a NS pack but nothing over €20 and no monthly packs. I’m waiting to collect my ops 38 I have one epic ship and can build another if I wanted to
abstract gate
They removed it because of the FarmVille-only players. They’re the only ones that would complain.
tired glade
My alliance went out and hunted everyone everywhere. It was fun.
@river sedge I was just sad I wasn’t online right away and someone had already cleared the swarms 😂😂
I’ve been wanting to do that for ages
river sedge
Lol. It was a blast. Then we started wrecking any base that didnt have a miner sitting on a dock.
Stella pvp was worthless.
ashen wharf
Why because you were dying?
river sedge
No. It wasnt fun.
vagrant relic
I don't like PVP but Stella PvP was so 👍 😊
river sedge
Completed it in 10 minutes.
ashen wharf
Because it was semi balanced you didnt like it weird
river sedge
No, again, it was completed in 10 minutes. No strategy involved whatsoever.
abstract gate
I got 99,150 points. I was gonna shoot for 100K this time. Now it’s just Faction Hunt. Yay. Whoopie.
tired glade
Just throw ships at each other until you get the event done and gone
river sedge
You bring out a ship that is designed for armadas to pvp against other ships designed to kill armadas. Oh joy.
tired glade
Yeah no strategy needed. Most people toss vemet to speed it up because they don’t give a 💩
rough frost
Oh because the galaxy wide pvp wasn't throw ship at each other till you done maybe 😂
abstract gate
I should just go rogue pirate and wake up in the morning, port base, kill everything, wash, rinse repeat, until all my rss dries up and then leave the game.
river sedge
@rough frost the galaxy one was a leaderboard event, so...
tired glade
No because you stopped people from leaving their toys laying out and had fun shooting armadas and people farming hostile
abstract gate
Let’s see the complains roll in then.... 😈
tired glade
Like it should be
rough frost
Ha no forget, you had first to find ships as 90% of galaxy Was offline fir 24h lol
river sedge
I'm killing all ships from midnight Saturday to midnight sunday.
abstract gate
Are we honestly suggesting that pvp stella was lame because of the lack of strategy??
Do you spend a long time deciding to use your dvor on a lat mine, or pike crew for pve...
Jusy saying if complexity is the measure for events 🙈🙈 there all getting canned
tired glade
Yeah we were all scanning systems that people would farm in and swarms.
Just tried to see who could get there first
abstract gate
Then it tuned into an ocean of nothing but bubbles.
abstract gate
😂 we really are what ship do you use for data mining mixing that up much
rough frost
Search system 👀 would never had thought about that
abstract gate
Ugh
tired glade
Really would be better to remove roe from the servers 😂
abstract gate
RoE is an artificial concept anyway.
tired glade
Exactly
abstract gate
Ive heard there are some servers where it’s just a flat-out FFA.
That could actually be fun.
tired glade
I mean I’m happy to mine while I’m offline and doing daily’s but otherwise every warpship should be ffa
rough frost
Remove roe, people can't do dailies. People can do dailies, they can't progress. People can't progress, they find another game.
Hard to pvp when there no one to pew pew pew für your own fun
river sedge
My server combines things. Roe 6 days a week. Kill everything 1 day.
tired glade
How do you think it’s done in every other game like this????
abstract gate
I need to be on that server, then.
river sedge
@abstract gate s11, it's a blast.

I need to be on that server, then.
@abstract gate Mmmm, but then you have to put up with me. 🤣

I love it.

If I can’t beat you, I just get strong enough to where I can...

keen ledge
I think pve and pvp should both have their events and things to do. Example: I didn't care for the Angry Klingon event, but I didn't complain about it either - just did something else.
ashen wharf
Thank you for paying for pixels
tired glade
The people who claim it takes $$ to progress in this game spend too much time complaining and in here to grind out something and plan their advancement in the game
rough frost
@keen ledge for my personal info, how many player on during slaughter day? By comparing with the others
tired glade
Ok there is a paywall at ops 39 now I admit that
keen ledge
How many are out mining/pveing or how many participate in the killing?
river sedge
For me. If there was our #slaughterday, I'd be rogue killing whoever I wanted whenever.
abstract gate
I got almost 100K points, so we had a few peeps out.
keen ledge
I still do my dailies, as do many others - just have to be more diligent about watching our ships.
If you're not, eh miners are cheap.
river sedge
Yea, never had a problem completing dailies.
rough frost
So casual players probably don't play those days
abstract gate
As a 41 with almost all maxed Epic ships and a Discovery that can bounce past warp 75, if I ever decide to make every day “#slaughterday” the screams from the FarmVille crowd hasn’t even been heard yet...
keen ledge
We get some who very much dislike it- that is true. But without it, the alternative is another "DeathMarch".
ashen wharf
Casual players dont have the mats to maintain all day everyday pvp
river sedge
Sure they do. Casual players, surprisingly, enjoy some pvp as well.
ashen wharf
If they arent in a top alliance
abstract gate
I’m okay with one or two days a month of “Faction Hunt + Galaxy PvP” that is NOT too much to ask
keen ledge
DeathMarch was a player who cleared every system he could find, all day every day. Multiple times. It was his only joy in this game.
river sedge
I love when a low level casual player hits my ship on #slaughterday.
keen ledge
Slaughterday is a "pressure release" for that type of player.
river sedge
It is.
abstract gate
Sounds like DeathMarch was a pretty hated fellow. What level was he?
keen ledge
If it keeps them abiding by ROE the other 6 days, it's all good.
river sedge
DM was great.
keen ledge
Oh, wow... hmm. DM quit long ago.
real bluff
This game doesn't have pvp 😂😂 it has flys agaisnt a windshield but not pvp. Pvp in any other pvp game is tactics and strategy this is the bigger guy/ship will steamroller the lower players with much weaker ships
keen ledge
So probably not big by current standards but he was back then.
tired glade
So let’s put the game towards casual part time players instead 😂
river sedge
DM still plays, just on a different server.
river sedge
Yea, he got locked out, for some reason.
He came back about a month ago, I think, for a day or so while getting issue resolved.
real bluff
@abstract gate so you think a level 33 with a 1.3mil sally attacking a level 23 with a 130k kehra or valks is pvp?
real bluff
I'm the level 33 by the way
keen ledge
It's pvp. Not what I would consider a fun variety of pvp for either player, though.
keen ledge
However, my other game, someone 20 times my size can hit me.
So this is not the worst I've seen.
river sedge
I think the level ranges should be adjusted, state that in all the surveys. 3 up/3 down or so...
real bluff
It's pvp. Not what I would consider a fun variety of pvp for either player, though.
@keen ledge thats what I mean. I want more pvp but proper pvp not the current set up. I dont want to go hunting for much weaker players thats no fun at all
abstract gate
However, my other game, someone 20 times my size can hit me.
@keen ledge christ, that sounds as bad as mobile royale
ashen wharf
All i know is i kill whales on this game on eve because i know how to strategize better then them and they take it out on me here with their credit card 
So overall i win in both spaces 🤣
keen ledge
@keen ledge christ, that sounds as bad as mobile royale
@abstract gate Lords - castles, troops. Probably very similar. But I've played for years regardless. Just have to be smarter about how I defend than they are about smashing large things into my wall.
abstract gate
ah yup very similar concepts 💩
real bluff
The best game for pvp levels I played was 10 years ago. Went of power brackets in blocks of 500k
keen ledge
I'm an odd form of pve-er in that I don't mind the pvp-ers or the pvp content, generally. If I don't feel like participating, I just do something else. Takes all kinds.
Dusty, I think bracketing would be nice in all the games I play. LOL
tawny olive
You don't have to do it if you don't want to, but scopely wants you in the game as much as possible. Then you are more inclined to spend
real bluff
Games have lost the sense of proper pvp. Seems its all about cater for the spenders and forget the rest. Let them max out their levels and steamroller everyone else. Lower players quit the spenders have spent thousands and quit game companies dont care as already lined their pockets
sand forge
is there any way to know the order of the daily events? I mean station, research and recruit...

Yes, it's on a cycle.

Best way to have good PvP is giving a ship that’s easy to max but with lot of versatility. That’s what they did in another game, everyone was lvl 99 but equipment and stats differed. But it was real PvP where allies (not teammates) made the difference
Probably a ship that’s not destroyed immediately would help for PvP
But I don’t want more event specific ships :/
Maybe T1 max ship would be ok lol
abstract gate
The Vulcan event. Slow sluggish you have to tap your damn screen 3 or 4 times to make the attack menu pop. The game crashes at unknown times and points of the game play. Their packs are waaaayyyyy toooo expensive. I’ve had more friends quit the game for those reasons and I’m almost at that point myself now. So, instead of coming out with all this new crap, why not fix what you have out now? Of course that’d be too easy. Right?
Most if not all the new content is geared for the high lvl players anyway. When the new content comes out, I don’t see my future playing this game any longer.
drowsy viper
Slaughterday is a “pressure release” for that type of player.
@keen ledge you still have that in your server? Was imposed in ours by the top alliance and everyone else declared war to them. They stopped. It was just miner killing at the end...
drowsy viper
But do you manage to kill anything besides miners ?
river sedge
Yea, all the time.
drowsy viper
When it was imposed it was basically (looong time ago) a NS clearing a system full of envoys
river sedge
Some turtle, but many come out.
river sedge
Man, my ns has dust
drowsy viper
But my point being is that the slaughter day was unsuccessful because it revolved about killing miners
keen ledge
Killing miners is boring to me, Spade, so I don't disagree.
drowsy viper
Super
novel hollow
We have purge twice monthly ...
keen ledge
But mine is not the only playstyle on the server, so I've had to accept that others like different things than I do.
drowsy viper
Also our server is the type of server that when a system gets cleared, quickly fills up again in 1-3 min
keen ledge
How does your purge work?
drowsy viper
How does your purge work?
@keen ledge single players with more or less tenacity
novel hollow
All roe out the window ... everything fair game
drowsy viper
But most end up quitting purging because it’s suuuuper boring
Also they get killed and often forced to shield. Their coords posted in GC and so on
novel hollow
Agreed it was started BC of the ones who want to kill em all as a release, but yes when you are just killing miners not too fun.
drowsy viper
The strongest don’t do that because punishment is that they can’t rejoin any alliance
novel hollow
And 💩it starts at reset and goes for 24 hours 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
abstract gate
Disco eliminates the coords thing. So easy to park in some obscure place from low to high, and make instant clearing something that can happen in less than a minute.
drowsy viper
I’m fine with Purge, but honestly, those who enjoy it has the ships to fight. Little players hate this type of event, that’s why they pulled the plug. Not because of whales complaining, but 80% of player base who hated it
abstract gate
Used to be you could almost tell where a person is based on their hunting patterns. Now? Not a chance. You can bounce from deep space to deep space and peek in seconds
drowsy viper
No one high level actually purges because then you can’t rejoin any alliance, so you end up quitting the game
ashen wharf
Eh now that discovery has that warp stuff if i do build it im aiming for whale haven
first
abstract gate
So nice to mine in places that have 200K and larger nodes.
Lat as far as the eye can see and no waiting
ashen wharf
Bet whales will start to ask for dark space to increase once mid players start messing with their safe haven
abstract gate
Our server has a “Gentleman’s Agreement” - above warp 50 - NO hitting 0 node unless all other nodes are taken and you are going to mine it. No hunting OPL. Gets rid of the trailer park bullsh*t of the lower systems
novel hollow
So nice to mine in places that have 200K and larger nodes.
@abstract gate so basically what you’re saying is I’m bored and I can do what I want. So I’ll kill all the people that have to work to play.
ashen wharf
screw that
abstract gate
Yep. Some said “screw that” until their bigger players actually enjoying mining in peace. Only winner up there if you fight is Scopely.
Someone in a smaller alliance hit one of ours for some 3K ore OPL up there with Stonn on a warship. What happened? I made it a point to hammer them exclusively anything not on a mine. I one shot all their bases and killed about 45 warships during a particularly large raid. They stopped that BS.
Nope. It’s no different than real world mechanics. If you have the means to chill out and enjoy, do it. from levels 1 through about 33 I worked my AZZZZ off grinding. It wasnt until then I spent a little $ to get up there and take a break. Nothing wrong with it. Thought it does seem to upset the reverse-bullying of calling me out because I spend money on something I enjoy.
Now I can actually park a miner overnight in an ocean of open nodes and let it sit until I wake up. I of course use the right crew to never go OPL so if you hit me off a zero, you did it to be a dick and not get anything.
And then you garner my undivided attention for being said “dick”. Usually doesn’t end well as I can be rather singularly focused on who and what I hunt for quite a while.
No reason we all can’t be nice people above warp 50. If you don’t, well, you get what ya asked for I guess.
slate panther
Don’t go 0, set a timer or reap the consequences
abstract gate
They’re welcome to smack me if they need the node. If you don’t need it, and I’m not opl, why you hitting me?
Just because you can? Cool. And I will set your alliance on fire “just because I can”. Goes both ways.
slate panther

🍼. You might need this. Your expectation of special rules in dark amuses me.

Nah. I like a good asshat to fight.

If those rules are cool up there why shouldn’t they apply below?
abstract gate
They should, but the resources are far more artificially constrained.
novel hollow
The population is constrained
abstract gate
Even when I was a lower level I never hunted OPL. I mined what I needed.

Very few peeps up in 75 and higher.
We have a few, but we’ve reached a level where we’re not asshats to each other and treat each other like adults

I wont take a 0 node unless I really REALLY need it and nothing else is available.
I was gonna correct it but I try not to be a grammar Nazi 🤣

And now? I never have to take a zero node, unless i am clearing it for a teammate
novel hollow
And Mack I’m a 31 so not a huge order for lat rush to be completed
tired glade
Yeah it jumps quick and it’s not bad just annoying if you want your ships
abstract gate
Thing is too, when you reach 40 and beyond with the rep to match, mining requires SOOO much more just to do a single pull of the refinery which will cause you to go over OPL a lot more often than you might expect.
And to put Stonn on a warship and go hunt in dark? You’re just a dick.
tired glade
I held back moving up in ops and I think it wasn’t the best idea. If you want to get as much free stuff out of events it’s better to push and push ops as far as you can go before dumping into a ship
Paywall is now ops 39

I’ve been holding to go to 32 because I don’t want any 32 ships.
And I don’t have the 34 bps ...
abstract gate
You can get the BPS if you save your credits from the dailies.
tired glade
I made the mistake of not having fed faction so I didn’t get the best ship out there and had to grind along in a simple centurion until my d4
I scrapped my max d3 to get my prime researches
And I can also build an augur right now if I wanted to but I’m holding off
abstract gate
Mmmm I loved my Cent. I got a LOT of use out of that baby before I got my Augur. Needed that to fend off all the E’s that were popping up like weeds
icy trout
Does anyone know when they have the upgrade operations event again?
tired glade
I camped at ops 21 forever because I had a maxed NS and took out most kumari’s but I wasn’t collecting much from events and daily’s. Better to push ahead in ops. Now that pike exists there’s no worries
A 1m ship can take you further than it should
novel hollow
I have sally and a pos Bortas (no bitterness on wasted mats).

Does anyone know when they have the upgrade operations event again?
@icy trout I’ve been waiting to collect my ops 38 for another one. I missed the last one by a day or two lol
novel hollow
Augur is what I’m working for now .:: 120 more bps.

Don’t spend any rss on another ships just the saladin and just put the rest into your base
Push at least to ops 36
But better 38
novel hollow
Well my 3 faction miners need a whittle
tired glade
Don’t spend on those
You now can have a discovery eventually and spend the crystal on your base instead
novel hollow
? What’s the discover going to do
tired glade
As an almost f2P its The best way
You can use summon research to jump to almost unlimited warp
novel hollow
Ah
tired glade
So don’t need a w75 ship anymore it’s the discovery
novel hollow
Will take that in account kvort and ant both w40 now which was first goal.
tired glade
But the ranked events when I first got to ops 36, some are level banded, there was less than 40 players
So easy to win on a lot of the events with little competition

Scrapping a level 45 D3 is on top of my priority list

Thats still alot of money you put into it
By the time a regular person would get it that high

Couple hundred. I did the moment I learned they added summon

That paid for itself in the time I have saved alone. I can go from lvl 1 space to 75 in a moment.

That’s ops 41 player also
With little to nothing spent to get there
But it will eventually come to all of us like the game has always been
Like boarding a plane
Eventually you’re gonna get your spot
abstract gate
Yeah. I was impatient 🤣
ashen wharf
Little to nothing yet youve probably spent hundreds to thousands

I like the stamets captain - he lowers the cost to summon and jump considerably. Oh I never said I never spent money. I enjoy this game and it’s my one vice.
ashen wharf
If there was a method to get stuff in a grind way that could catch to pay 2 win game would be better
abstract gate
I don’t disagree with you on that point at all. But I started to calculate what amount of grinding it would have taken to get where I am? The time commitment would have been astronomical to impossible.
tired glade
You just need to plan how you’re going to level and don’t build/upgrade every ship along the way and yes F2P can do it. There was a guy rev had on who only ever had $20 pack and was ops 39 with an ISS JF
I doubt I’ll get a jelly myself but I’ll be ops 39 soon It seems. I never thought I’d made it to ops 38 without spending but they give more rewards so it’s fine

What to plan? Or to not always be a pessimist? 😂

Just as an FYI if my feedback<@&509691205798592532> and <@&509690795536941056> , I am really dissapointed that the PvP events have now been scrapped. We have so few of them and so many PvE and mining events.
inland mulch
@north walrus we had two pvp events yesterday
Also mining events don't cause 90% of the players to go log off for 24hrs
warm rover
Anyone else have an issue of not getting the flash points awarded if you did not claim the event before the next one starts?
primal cairn
Many people said it happened in last week's one.
white kite
Gj. Babishta its not counting X2 as critical system
So shit event on this game and ofcourse broken counting
deep steeple
PvP events don't work because of the PvP lvl spread. What chance has a lvl 30 player defeating a lvl 40 player. They need to change the scoring so you only get points for defeating players of a similar level.
potent tartan
I believe the original range for PvP during beta was +- 5 levels... something similar to that would be preferable, Biggest issue with that is it would cause those of us at 39+ to re-evaluate what we are focussing on though - and cost Scopely income as whales may not be looking to be all powerful
flat fog
but on low population server a 5level range would means some players will have almost no one to attack 😅
potent tartan
maybe - but if 90% of a server is buttoned up anyway ...players have almost no one to attack
what ends up happening in that case is the largest alliances then agree to sacrifice a player or 2 to make sure that their alliance wins the PvP event
robust vapor
@white kite are you sure it was a critical system? not listed on the old one that I have listed 🤔 remembering that all systems will now show the flag just like the critical only ones did last time.
polar belfry
Signal Interrupted quesr, says to attack 1 Klingon Invader, but the system it says has none

Is anyone else finding that sometimes the first hit/kill in the flash events doesn't count? Just damaged a lvl 31 and didn't rank at all? Normally its within the firat minute of the event.
hushed pagoda
Yep, consistently. I restart my app once the event has started and don’t hit in first minute.
restive inlet
@dense lantern yes much often here too. It‘s really annoying. Sometime I must hit 2-3 npcs till the points counting. And a restart or anything else does not help.

dapper drum
use Yuki marcus zhou
why you using a regen crew on a mission boss
makes no sense
they hit too hard for spock to do anything about it
if spock was regenerating enough you would have died with full shields
if you have 5of10 though that would be the best route full synergy
pastel copper
Or two ship technique ?
pastel copper
It’s in a lvl 14 system
dapper drum
normally they give the higher ops bosses in WR 100+ systems
didn't bother to see it was in dhi'ban
pastel copper
Yeah
dapper drum
then yeah smash the crap out of its shields first with a yuki crew then send in 5of10 on the jelly to clean up
dire veldt
yuki 2nd
if you do yuki 1st the shield she strips is automatically regerated at the end of battle
dapper drum
seriously thats lame
no point using yuki 2nd then if you are trying to bash the shields with 1st
if you are quick enough the most regen a boss can do is around 5%
if you are slow then yes
but if he is 43 he should have an augur that would wipe the floor with a 6.5m boss explorer
the jelly takes too long to stack damage and boss battles are short rounded
dire veldt
I'd try 5, Gorkon, Khan on Jelly, then finish with Yuki Kirk Zhou on an ent
dapper drum
think 400% 5 is enough?
I mean yeah if you have stacked officers
even 1 synergy officer should be enough to reach max mitigation if you have stacked officers
but yuki marcus nero on a maxed augur should eat that thing
even gaila on a maxed augur should
robust vapor
@dire veldt Yuki removed shield portion isn't necessarily instantly restored after battle with mission hostiles. Myself and a couple of other players have it actually working just fine for a first hit on mission hostiles. It looks like the issue is more related to how much shield is removed (tends to come back instantly if it ends with no shield), though there hasn't been a lot of further investigation into what's going on done yet (for some of us it doesn't work with synergy, for others it does, needs more scrutiny)..
Conversely, you can over charge your shields with Moreau and I'd wager it'd give more benefit on that ISS Jellyfish that Kirk and Spock 😆
scenic cloud
I think , Another 3 or 4k $ and you can kill it.... mwaaaaaaHahahahaha.
icy panther
The server-wide PvP Event issues seems so easy to fix to me. 1. Exclude all specialty ships from giving points. 2. Only give points within a certain level range of OPS.

Pvp should be flash events, unannounced times for it to start with some randomness thrown in.

I like the PVP event called "kill J.M.Slow" where everyone only get points for killing you. That sounds fun to me 🙂 lol
raw owl
Why is it that the separatist hunt requires dozens of hours of repair suiciding, or killing 1000+ level 22 separatists?
warm pagoda
Was the tsunami of negative feedback for the last separatist events not sufficient, Scopely? Was it not clear enough for you to figure out it’s complete dog feces?
Jacked point scaling, obvious play to drain player speed ups and/or drive more player spending. Spending on ridiculously expensive “micro transactions.”
Want to drive players away? Keep running events like this.
dim oriole
Sepreatist hunt again scopely?! Are you purposely trying to either bankrupt people with repair costs or just exclude sub level 30 players?! I'll be lucky to complete battle pass now due to the constant unobtainable events or PvP against level 35-40 players!
raw owl
Hunt is easy for this in low 20s, but the lack of targets between 66k and 2.xM power is rough

@dim oriole Scopely's plan is to force people to buy the points packs coz they can't get the battle pass finished. Also the events are designed for the older high population servers, but then roll the exact same thing out for every server (Laziness). My server is about 4 months old so giving us a Stella PVP event the other day when we've not had the outlaw event so no one even has a stella makes perfect sense right?

@hearty bay have to totally agree there, create something that unobtainable and then offer a chance to purchase it for a cost. I've already purchased the elite battle pass token for this month, first time ever, now Scopely create events I can't possibly complete. I also don't have a Stella or a Franklin so anything rouge of swarm related it hard for me. I also haven't done the Borg arc so have no nodes so can't travel to some systems. It's like if you didn't join at the start and play every day constantly then you're left behind and scopely give you a 🖕🖕🖕 put the back window to you

What’s unobtainable?
scarlet kettle
Please, please, please, stop with the separatist hunts! You say you listen to feedback. You say you care what we think. Stop with these. I have to either kill over 1000 hostiles or use over a few hundred repair speed ups to complete this. Its exhausting how much this drains the soul and rss in game.
scarlet kettle
Oh y’all don’t know how to kill stuff got it.
@novel hollow I know how to kill stuff. If I want to kill elites, to do enough damage, I did the math, I need to kill over 1000 hostiles. To harm the bosses I need to waste loads of rss and speed ups. That is not my fault. That is Scopely fails and many people are saying the same thing.

And jiminiy no battle pass has required anyone to complete every event

@novel hollow Franklin and Stella ships for starters

tag team the lvl 26 sep's with alliance mates or even with other friendly alliances...this will spread the costs out

@novel hollow true but there has been 4 seperatists events and a PvP so far that's a fair few events to miss out on

@abstract gate I don't see how? Damage is damage regardless of if you team up or not? The event is damage dealt, not enemies killed

@novel hollow Sorry can't help what ships I have, I would level up but strangely enough most events are aimed at higher players hence the problem we have. Get left behind or cough up cash to catch up

well yeah they dont care about new players unless they come in with credit card at the ready
dim oriole
Dont get why yall think you should be hitting 22's those become useless after like lvl 19
@ashen wharf because we can't hit level 26s at 2.2-5 mill health without kamakazing a ship 5 times

well yeah they dont care about new players unless they come in with credit card at the ready
@ashen wharf exactly. So we are getting left behind in events like this. And when some of us have paid the elite battlepass token then they issue events we can't compete in, it's a bit of a kick in the nuts!

Try it please I mean Lawd what you got to lose
@novel hollow burning crew on fort?
If I remember the fortunate thing was alright up to about lvl30. Then the points you need meant lots of burning runs. You'll get 0,250k,500k or 750k. Depends how many times the burn activates. Arix as Capt, with Nero and Scotty for warp.
If you have the Franklin that is more reliable to trigger burning as it fires 3 shots per round.
@median slate yeah, no Franklin, unobtainable, like the Stella 😔 but about to give it a shot with the fortunate
OK tried, all ships destroyed and dealt around 30% damage
crisp current
OK tried, all ships destroyed and dealt around 30% damage
@dim oriole you tried with an ECS? Lol

@crisp current yep was advised to above if you read :)
Going to try fortunate now on its own see how much damage I can scrape with Nero crew
Do you have Pike. Pike Moreau Chen in Pareleon is best on a warship. Or Arix, Nero, Scotty ona fortunate to burn for cheap points.
@median slate trying Nero burning crew on fortunate now, see how much damage I can do. No pike yet :(
south arrow
Best points for smaller player is use a tarus with kumak captian with Nero and Chen

tier 7 kumari can kill 1 boss
@dapper drum only have a Tier 6 :(

was tag teaming these vahklas kumari before ships were even rebuffed and was only ops 25
with rebuff and all the new battle techs these shouldn't even be called bosses anymore
maybe capos
introduce a new system with higher level ones
dim oriole
with rebuff and all the new battle techs these shouldn't even be called bosses anymore
@dapper drum they are Definately bosses for me!

my kumari now is 600k before rebuff was like 330k
use to take vahklas and kumari and sometimes would have to finish off the last bit of health with a kehra
thin bloom
Tier 6 kumari can also kill a boss with Pike crew
dapper drum
didn't have pike back then either
dim oriole
using decius khan and gorkon
@dapper drum just checked my crew, no Kahn or Gordon 😔
dapper drum
back then it was uphill both ways with the 3 basic epics gorkon,kirk,nero
dim oriole
Tier 6 kumari can also kill a boss with Pike crew
@thin bloom no pike yet

use cadet uhura with cadet mccoy and cadet kirk
not much mitigation but helps
or use chen,moreau,tlaan
dim oriole
Best points for smaller player is use a tarus with kumak captian with Nero and Chen
@south arrow trying this setup now
dapper drum
go for battleships
if you are going for burn to do points just use kumari
you will last more rounds and the more rounds the more hull is burned
thin bloom
If you have a decent kumari you can try kirk, spock, decius, assuming you have those

spock captain maneuver is for explorers
use chen as captain with tlaan and moreau
get defense boost and mitigation
if your spock isn't 400% or more you will have to use bones as well
just burn it
novel hollow
No Yuki? If you’re hitting w multiple ships?
dapper drum
vemet as captain with nero and livis
the shields on the bosses are extremely low its their hull that is high
novel hollow
Kk
dim oriole
Kumari Crew?
dim oriole
What did you score with the fortunate and burn crew?
@median slate
put kirk and gorkon with spock
@dapper drum no Gorkon but will put Kirk and Spock on now
dapper drum
smaller ship = less rounds = less burn = less points
then use nero on bottom
point is to max out your stats as high as you can and epics will give most per tier
but if you are doing it for points and not killing use vemet with nero and livis uptop and max your defense and health below
you will die and get to go a few more rounds again
burn is what scores you points not hitting the boss
if you are going after the 22 or weaker use bones uhura and tlaan on your vahklas
and not cadet either
dim oriole
point is to max out your stats as high as you can and epics will give most per tier
@dapper drum
dapper drum
ouch I can usually max kumari out with 2 officers 😂
for rares kras/chang will give attack if you don't have gorkon but your defense will drop without spock or kirk and your nero has most your health
gotta start farming those ultra tokens
need to tier up your epics even if you don't use them on bridge
dim oriole
Cheers @dapper drum for your advice and help. I think I've realised my crew and ships are shite which is why I can't compete 🤣 but I will try those crew combinations now to see if I can score more damage points. I've tried burning crew on mayflower but didn't do much but I'll try the above crew on Kumari and see how that goes!
Thanks all for your advice!

@worn vortex thanks! I don't have 2 of those characters so had to sub with Nero, but this is my result
@dim oriole Thats wasn't the right way with a fortunate.
Arix, Nero, Scotty - but you MUST hit full health targets. When it works you get scores like this. If you scored 20k points you must have hit a nearly dead boos.
@median slate with Arix as capt?
dense lantern
If you have yuki, use her on one ship to strip sepratist shield, then use arix or similar burning crew on another ship
That should give decent damage
dim oriole
If you have yuki, use her on one ship to strip sepratist shield, then use arix or similar burning crew on another ship
@dense lantern yeah have got her will try that one too
Arix is 10% burn (more with synergy) helps the chances a little bit. But Nero does do most of the heavy lifting.
@median slate no worries will try that configuration with Nero as capt too, cheers!

Separatist bosses (atleast the explorer ones) have 200k shield health. And 3 mil hull health, don't waste the Captain slot on Yuki.

green shard
Can you offer larger BP pacs?
frozen abyss
108 damage from weapons. Also 3x points on that.
dim oriole
@dim oriole maths is hull * 1% burn damage * 3pts + weapon damage
So 3.5M hull * 1% = 35000
x3 = 105,000 <- These are the points for buring 1 round.
So you got the target burning for 1 round, plus the 324 damage from weapons.You should get some better runs, 2 or 3 rounds I think is max with the fortunate you can burn for. Without a really good Nero and good luck
@median slate brilliant thank you! 🙏

For some reason the event takes a big jump from 27 to 28.. it’s like 3.67 mill to 55 mill... that’s a lot of grinding if ya don’t have the ship and crew yet..

Because of the insane amounts of rss the buildings want. It’s strictly pay to progress.

git em @abstract gate git em!

Well I guess I'll raid it from farmers🙈
How about a compromise, Scopely. Make a space region like Rogue - call it “Chaotic Space” Give it it’s own store where you get points for PvP 24/7. Fill it with fast, fat resource nodes. And the reason it’s called Chaotic Space? BUBBLES DON’T WORK 😈
It would SO easily fit inside of existing game mechanics. So little extra coding would have to be done. Jesus, it would be a dinner plate for the whales to pay more $$ and have a place to hunt.
Haha, would love that.
Another option I heard today was making mats and raw g2/g3/g4 raidable. And adding bubble disruptors to game
Oooo that would illicit death threats in RL if someone was able to steal 2/3/4 mats. OMFG. 🤣
nova valley
lmao omg bubble disruptors.
abstract gate
Yeah...for next Arc we get Voyager
Its special ability
Shoot through bubble
The refineries give diddly squat now - and if someone stole it? Yeah, even I’d probably hunt them down 😂
Exactly...imagine saving 8k g3 unc crystal for your kvort...just for it being stolen😆
People would die.
Or they could do it like with RSS...Events and packs give unc in tokens...unraidable
Refinery guarantees unc and rare
But raidable
If they do anything even remotely like that, they need to put a building on one of the open spots on the map to allow for “compressing” free/loose rss into tokens
For a cost of course 🤣
Disco is semi miner...give it another ability
Raiding mats😂😂
Maybe then I would take it bit higher than t3😆😆😆
That happens and I would shoot every single free disco I see just on principle.
Yeah...PvP is born
Out of principle and necessity
Just make Chaotic Space - a chunk just like Rogue. Nodes to mine, planets to relo a base to - but bubbles don’t work, and you get points for killing. Redeemable in a store. Simplicity at its finest.
And to stop farmers from crying
Yep
Give them bit more...make all token area PvE only
They can mine in rogue space for 24h with antares on ore and green joachim or whatever his name is
Heck, even make new building in station...Garden...where they can plant their raw g3 and in 27 days get a tree of g3...make research where tree gives g3 raw fruits faster
Lol perfect for farmers 🤣
Yeah, something like generators...but you need garden, you can research it to be faster and it can give up to 3000 raw g2/g3/g4 per hour
