2b points is fine IF you can get to the critical system

As written warp 120 needed for me to... The rewards arent worth damaging my ship 20k times
And they can put their,, all working as intended to their darkest deep space,,
inland mulch
Vulcan event is a bit over the top even at my level. Better have the best system and crew or it's going to take all day
potent rune
ive been killing 31s since it starts and just hit the first milestone
stiff mango
In short words not Doable
potent rune
its doable just ime consuming
and a single event should not take 5+ hours to complete
tender bay
900m points at lvl 35, and no lvl33 system is a bonus system
stiff mango
Guess what i jave a life and its pretty awesome and not worth doing this stuff
tender bay
Not feasible for me thanks
carmine lily
Bonus systems and bonus captains are not giving bonus points
shut sand
I can’t understand why the event requires a specialist captain thats a pvp one but we are hostile grinding 🤷🏻♂️
carmine lily
If you guys are going to keep forcing us to use these garbage officers as captains, could you please fix them so they have abilities worthy of use as a captain? They’re trash and you know it.
soft fossil
Who does math over there three ships and still only halfway to first tier
shut sand
Milestones and events are a joke today. Might as well through repairs down the drain to complete with how unrealistic it’s been set up.
Vulcan hello is awful, let alone adding in separatists to complete.
Dailies on top and it’s just ridiculous
grave rivet
@shut sand seperatists takes like 8 kills. It’s the Vulcan Hello that is broken
shut sand
Depends what power ships players have though. For some, 55m is 8 repairs worth because they only get one at a time.
When you add the 2 events together. It’s a crazy amount of repairs to complete
carmine lily
And there’s another officer event that it’s impossible to get cards for. What are you guys at scopely doing today?
abstract gate
You are aware that the business model is to sell packs, not to have people play a game for free? And they even added a ftp grind option in the Officer ALB this time, I don't remember it being so good.
shut sand
I understand their model 😜
On my smaller account. I’m 4 Full sally repairs in now and not even halfway in Vulcan hello. That’s including using saru as captain.
meager zinc
Milestones for Vulcan Hello and Gather Territory Resources are waaaayy too high
deep steeple
What crew is best for these hostiles? PMC doesn't seem to work
shut sand
Well they want you to use a pvp captain for a start 😂
abstract gate
Anomaly interceptors? Try PMT.
carmine lily
1 point is not good. There’s no packs in the store and no other way to get cards. The slb is impossible, the alb is ridiculous
astral forum
2 x 3mil Augurs burned and still not even 1 stage done, Scopely are you going mad?
tulip holly
Event goal of 900M for lvl 35 player? Has Scopely done the math on that?
tulip holly
Yeah, silly me. 😂🤣
deep steeple
Was killing the Klingon explorers in Blyth normally PMC works well against explorer
carmine lily
Scopely math: 1+1 = pancake!
bronze quest
Scopely IS math - common core at it's finest
abstract gate
@carmine lily The SLB I agree. The ALB not so much. My alliance has 60 active players but no whales and we are currently leading by 40k points (the PvE SLB gave us a bit of a boost).
meager zinc
5 mil each hostile and the first milestone is 180 mil...lol
abstract gate
Yeah.... I'm not doing that.

Critical system bonus doesnt work

Critical systems in warp120
mental yoke
They are doing a great job of chasing away players...bravo scopes
pale kestrel
yeah, at lvl 38 have the 900mil points total. took killing 50 level 31s in one of the crit systems to get first tier reward from vulcan hello. level 33 systems aren't listed as critical systems so not sure if bonus still applies since they aren't listed but still flagged on map.
carmine lily
@abstract gate highly unlikely even 1% of that has come from hunting hostiles. 40k points is at least 20k hostiles. That’s at least 3300 hostiles a piece in the last 24 hours just for that lead, not even counting the rest of the points.
tawny void
Oh well time to join in with the moan about Vulcan hello event. What the heck with the 900mill target
carmine lily
Lol
Just don’t play it. That’ll show them.
Logged in, looked at events, logged out.

Two things. One. Vulcan hello ffs 1.6billion scopley wtf. Two the second buff is not activating for us anyone else having that issue we just finished second takeover
meager zinc
Level 33 top milestone is 131m. Me as a level 34...900m. Looks like everything above 33 is messed up
carmine lily
@solemn tusk you only get one buff, the second one should be listed as “upcoming”
They’re not changing for this arc as people are acquiring territories for the first time. They should start changing later on
modern estuary
lol ops 31 88.4mil top milestone ops 34 and ops36 900mil really @pearl ruin
abstract gate
@carmine lily Lol, most of that comes from hostiles. We have multiple people in the top 15 of the SLB, hitting about 2k Borgs and 1-2k swarms each just in the last 24hrs. It's a huge grind, yes, but thats to be expected for a ftp p2w game.
cosmic ferry
1.6 b .... and Critical systems in w120... haha. Math is hard sometimes... please fix ? thanks.
timid quiver
modern estuary
so far i dont like this new arc, WAY WAY too much grinding/mining required
its like a bad job you dont even get paid for
Welcome to Star Trek Grind n Mine
pearl ruin
lol ops 31 88.4mil top milestone ops 34 and ops36 900mil really @pearl ruin
@modern estuary We are going to do a complete review to the milestones after this round. The big jump in points is because of the hostile used to calculate the milestones, the Lvl35 hostiles have X times more HP than the lvl33 or 31.
opal holly
No bonus points for captains in vulcan hello event
pearl ruin
We strongly suggest hitting up as much as possible to speed up completion.
cosmic ferry
I wouldn't mind it .. but the fact they have said they understand time consuming factor in this game makes me don't like it .... Because it is becoming full time job... Dailies should be auto at least... to remove some time burden from players... and remove grind grind grind effect
solar fog
Scoring not correct in the red killing events
copper onyx
I don't like the fact they locked the Disco behind Arc1 only.... for someone like me whose RL screwed her time working on that Arc, but has completed every one since.... it means I was 1 day short of the final x45 Disco shards, and yet I'm being given loads and loads of Discovery Engine Components, Mycellium of various refinements, and more.... basically they are rubbing my nose in it... plus of course these Arcs insistence on missions that ... 'oh, x25 pts if you use Discovery'. I mean, if you are going to insist on the Discovery as the only way to score decently on the later arcs, at least give a trickle-feed way to get the Disco for those who almost got it, but not quite!
tulip holly
Most with the 900M goals can't kill lvl 35 anamoly hostiles so how EXACTLY is that supposed to work?
opal holly
I kill a ship and get 1.36m points captain regardless, i hit another one with 10% hp on my ship and get 2.6m points not killing it. Wtf?
modern estuary
ah screw this its not even worth the repair costs and speedups needed to do it
modern estuary
burn through enough speedups already battling for territories
tame inlet
bonus systems are all low level....

@pearl ruin I have a 1.3 mil Bortas and am level 34. To hit all of those milestones, using a critical captain in a critical system it is going at least take me 12 runs...at bare minimum.

Skip it I am
meager zinc
That’s 12 runs times 7.5 hrs worth of speed ups and resources.....
winged tulip
@pearl ruin If i'm understanding you right, you're saying that ops38 i should be hitting lvl35s as they have more hull and will get it done quicker, even though you've given the 3 bonus systems as lvl31 to encourage me to go there? whut?!
warm plover
winged tulip
And i don't even want to think about how few kills i'll get if i use a bonus captain instead of PMC

@winged tulip That is a good point, We just passed that the crit systems should be spread out across the levels for next round to the people in charge of re-balancing it

Lol, I’m not doing this disco event. It’s ridiculous.

We're busy defending takeovers atm - once that's done and they see how many points they get per repair for 900m needed, then you'll get a bit more salt on the fire i reckon

ridiculus the critical system to 39 be 120warp no 39 will have this warp

Ooh salt! Can you pass me peppers?

impossioble hit1.6b score without been critical i am 1h grinding, and dont et even tier 1 of the event... its totaly ridiculus

@pearl ruin is this how the event is “intended”?

I think the level range for 39 was too high.. people at 43 have the same system
winged tulip
Can we go back to the event where i warp 50 times and collect the same rewards?
or is this punishment for that?
astral solar
Any reason why diff ppl have different captains listed on their quest? Is itlvl bracket or something?
pearl ruin
@pearl ruin is this how the event is “intended”?
@stone grail The event was not misconfigured, that is what event team sent. However, we listen to player feedback and it is clear that we need to rebalance it. Expect changes in the overall points needed to complete and the critical systems used

Can we expect the event to be pulled please?
stone grail
@stone grail The event was not misconfigured, that is what event team sent. However, we listen to player feedback and it is clear that we need to rebalance it. Expect changes in the overall points needed to complete and the critical systems used
@pearl ruin yeah it was my bad on the previous comment of different crit systems, but the requirements for an ops39 to get to warp 120 is obscene
winged tulip
@pearl ruin Can we get a youtube video of someone from the events team doing this event at ops38 please? I'd watch this for hours!
lone ember
🤣
pearl ruin
@stone grail Agreed, the critical systems for ops39+ is one of the first pieces of feedback we sent out.

@pearl ruin pike as bonus captain for high levels....smoking some good stuff there...
meager zinc
@pearl ruin So what about those of us that are at ops 34 and higher that this is impacting the most, it seems vastly unfair that a level 31 only has to do 131mil worth of milestones and a 34 is expected to do 900mil. With everyone higher being even more screwed
agile flame
its terrible event and impossible to do even if we cold acess to the critical sistem,, 1.6bi score is ridiculus
wheat halo
Definitely, and Nedk it has to misconfigured. Quit being one of the Scopley sheep

i miss the flash version of vulcan hello. no joke

Don’t think I’ll be spending the time on this one to be fair

Just pull the event and send the compensation. I’m done, @pearl ruin

its not a possible event

1.6b score is obscene

He is level 50 and his crit system is ant and finlay

There is a failure in the factor instead of 10,20 or 30 x points you only get 1,2or 3x
foggy wyvern
They have an AI do it for them 🤣
pseudo socket
No that's normal
modern estuary
they do play it but with dev accounts that are probably maxed and they just spawn what they need
pseudo socket
Which is actually worse than not playing it I think
modern estuary
they dont grind anything to see just how horrible an experience it really is
lone ember
foggy wyvern
Lmao I’m level 42 and have the same reqs - scopely what the hell 🤣
meager zinc
Event level banding milestone requirements above level 33 are completely borked.
lone ember
☝️
meager zinc
You don’t jump from 131 mil at level 33 to 900mil at level 34. What magically happens between 33 and 34? I mean, whatever it is, I must have missed that massive power jump last month when I went from 33 to 34.
modern estuary
lol lvl 42+ need to sell some children to pay for the repair costs
abstract gate
I just got to ops 30 and my strongest ship is a 700k sally. Unfortunatly my Pike is still at 94/100. I can only kill 1.4 hostiles in Blys using the correct PvE crew and the battle triangle to my advantage.
The separatists event would take about 15-20 sally suicides in a Boss System or a rediculous long grind in the lower separatist systems. Is this also being looked at?
quasi quest
The Vulcan hello isn't so bad, cosmic cleanup is a non starter. Iv been hitting hostiles all evening and still not reached the first tier rewards for it
tame inlet
@abstract gate if i didnt have pike and only a baby sally I wouldnt be thinking of leveling up ops.....
lone ember
Right now the complaints is about Vulcan hello
abstract gate
It just got a tad harder at 30 - last Arc intoduced the separatists mechanic and I was at ops 29 - same thing. only a few less suicides. Not that it matters anyway.
quasi quest
I'm about halfway through hello
lone ember
Lucky you
quasi quest
The scoring for cosmic cleanup is outrageous
abstract gate
That Vidar event yesterday was so enjoyable!
tame inlet
@abstract gate Need to get ship power up to be able to kill the bosses...at ops 38 its 7 kills....about a 10 min repair on augur
pale cobalt
Separatist Hunt, The Vulcan Hello and Cosmic Clean Up completed that was expensive in repair costs and repair speed ups
tranquil moss
So lvl 33 has 171 mil milestones while lvl 35 has 900 mil, in the Vulcan hello event? Not cool scopely
tame inlet
@abstract gate cosmic clean up is 2 lvl49 traders....nice and fast
foggy wyvern
Yea that’s easy with a jelly. The Vulcan hello is impossible for anyone level 34+
Unless they like spending more than they get in rewards by a factor of 10
foggy wyvern
Yea that’s tough but I’ve been there with a t4 d4. It’s doable

Skip it and wait for the next “rebalanced” round
@stone grail they didn’t rebalance it this last time. They did it back to back with the same asinine goal. I just stopped doing it because I was tired of wasting speedups.

Am I correct that the crit system and crit captain bonus are not working?
modern estuary
yup
time to review the idiot's (that came up with this event idea) performance as this was very poorly thought out
abstract gate
Wellt it was "the same guy" that did the flash events. We didn't like the flash events he had to rework them (twice) now he is mad 🙂
modern estuary
@pearl ruin are the any plans to remove fog of war on systems owned by your own alliance
inland mulch
That's 300 kills with my best ship meaning at least 10 full repairs and probably 5 or more hours solid play. What us wrong with them?
pearl ruin
@pearl ruin are the any plans to remove fog of war on systems owned by your own alliance
@modern estuary It is something that we escalated and it is being assessed. However, keep in mind that if it turns out to be challenging to achieve it is something that might not be priority #1
agile flame
not doing this obscene event
modern estuary
@pearl ruin maybe if the owning alliance had a central structure in each system like say a market place then that could be used to keep away the fog of war. then when trading items you have to carry it in your ship to the market place (queue introducing piracy game play)

Can someone elaborate on how to get warp 120 at ops 39 ?....

I have a Jelly, you can't upgrade it at 39 no pack and you need tier 11 for warp 120 lol

so it cycles between the two?

not a cycle, just showing you the next

You have to buy the new buff each week. They have already said that eventually they will rotate. I'm thinking it's to encourage us to continue competing for different territory (rather than holding indefinitely)

I was thinking after holding it for 2 weeks you got a second buff.
all good.

Vulcan Hello Event is way to hard, even with bonus system and/or bonus captain ... not doable with all the other events and not really worth it for the outcomes.

obsidian drum
Vulcan event is ill and not reallity🤬 🤬 🤬
real sparrow
@twilit imp @rough mulch I wish the game designers are sensible when they come up with the requirements of the Vulcan Hello event. This event requirements are absurd. On mine, the first tier is 180mil and the top tier is 900mil. If I use a sally and kill hostiles in a level 31 critical system (without critical captain), I get 4mil killing battleships and 1mil killing interceptors and explorers. So to reach the top tier, I have kill at least 225 battleship hostiles with the hope that other players will not kill any battleship hostiles (considering our server is overcrowded, this is tough and takes a long time) or up to 900 explorer or interceptor hostiles. This is way harder than the faction hunt that at one point increased the requirement and everyone complained about it.
pale cobalt
Just for context the Vulcan Hello, Cosmic Clean Up and Separatists events are challenging but doable at ops 33 don't change the ops 33 milestones, if they are too easy they are boring

Feels so rewarding 😂

Agree the rewards are disappointing

Got a t7 Vidar - refinery gives 6k each day
But I like the idea to give players more ship parts

The amounts are disappointing but better than nothing I suppose

Suicide a ship on the bosses you sometimes get more points that way and makes the event easier

Also, use a burning crew. Kumak as captain with Nero and vemet as officers

team up with someone, one damages the boss shield.... then you attack with sally

I can see why they used Tilly/saru as crit capts due to discovery season 3 IPO content. however in STFC reality, they're bloody useless.
imho so far, series 3 of discovery [tv show] has been amazing @pearl ruin @twilit imp ... why is the game struggling with the wow factor?
dawn flare
4 hulls on a 4mil t8 ent at 41. 2 hours of grinding and I am about 75% done. And not even a single milestone on cosmic cleanup. This scoring is so far out of whack
solemn tusk
The game struggles with wow factor cause everything they do needs to be balance so they make money. Money. Something need to spend money on. Ect. If it doesn’t have revenue invoked they don’t do it. Hence the lack of wow from players
If they really wanted to renew spending they would need to wow factor in be if it of the players and not strictly on how to pull more money
dawn flare
This isnt even manageable

The Vulcan Hello points are messed up. It says 10x damage. So why do I get 1.4m points for killing a 1.4m hostile and not 15m points??
pale cobalt
For me the discovery is a massive let down for 2 reasons 1 it's lack of power and the insane upgrade costs 2 the instant warp/jump drive doesn't jump to where you select it only jumps to the edge of the system then impulses to the location that's not how the discovery should work

Discovery could of and should have been amazing and the jump drive to the location selected would have been a game changer but it's just another let down
abstract gate
lets splat the players with summoning tech @pale cobalt
great fun with a lvl 50 and friends on disco jump points
pale cobalt
I'm guessing summoning is the same summons to the edge of system then they impulse to the location but I don't know I can't be bothered to research it but if that is the case then it's another let down summon should bring the ships to where the Discovery is not edge of system then impulse across

what is the benefit of purchasing summoning tech when it i shows ineffectual in actual takeovers? @pearl ruin
split lotus
@abstract gate You can summon to any system your discovery can reach. If you want to mine with fortunates in deep space? sure
more practical. It means you no longer need to spend 22k UC crystal to mine in dark space / warp 56+ space
its also useful for base defence, missions that require you to traverse the galaxy. etc
Cant find a hostile for fast route home? summon. its pretty useful

@abstract gate You can summon to any system your discovery can reach. If you want to mine with fortunates in deep space? sure

i missed that small but important line 😄
@split lotus it's all good

Summoning in the takeover allows you to quickly bring more ships to combat, in particular you can insta-repair ships and bring them to the battlefield quickly.

but to pre-defined disco jump locations? it'd be like sitting on bee swarm points
forgive me if i'm wrong @pearl ruin

It would help if there was an announcement about the scoring issue

How about improving the spawn rate for hostiles for the Vulcan hello event. It’s atrocious how slow it is, and I only need to kill approximately 400 hostiles at my level.
When the whole server is hunting the same thing, it’s ridiculous.
cloud summit
This Vulcan Hello event is total trash. 900m points. 3m points a kill, 300 hostiles to kill , tons of ship repairs, hundreds of repair speed ups. All for 150 refinery credits?!?!? And then hours upon hours of work for nothing!
fresh ice
You can get 4m+ per kill on the 31s with critical system and captain, but yeah it is a huge grindfest.
cloud summit
Thats killing a battle ship it has more hull.
fresh ice
The battleships for me were giving almost 5 mil. It was still 4 mil for both the explorers and interceptors.
Probably could get more done running a hostile crew instead of the critical captain though. Save on ship repairs as well.
nocturne kelp
Completely useless event reward (cosmic clean up) with a maxed franklin. So for what have i killed all the hostiles? 110 nanoprobes? 5775 Ship XP?
Next time - after all the complaints - we receive what? 10k Parsteel? What´s wrong with these scopely guys?
tender spear
Killing battleships and explorers with my Bortas in the Vulcan hello event using critical captain in a critical system, only get normal points for two thirds of my kills. Three dead Borties, still only got to the first reward point. Complete cock up from Scopely, as per usual. Not wasting more hulls on that nonsense. 🤬

@abstract gate you should be able to finish the separatists event by hitting bosses. You might blow up, but you shouldn't need to do it much.
For the straight hostiles, just farm your usual daily faction level ships for a bit.

@novel pelican yes they brought @pearl ruin leela and ray to chat with the community............. not sure what went wrong

@real bluff I have to agree, and begrudgingly admit. After the horrid flash events, when I saw the new setup today it seemed they saw the feedback, conceded it was not the right way to run events for the player base and gave us an all day event that would allow us to enjoy it on our own time and have fun. Unfortunately they pulled another common Scopely move and just screwed up the execution.
silent horizon
Bonus points for vulcan hello for me count correctly. Need to score 900m, which is about 5-6 repairs on a 2,5m augur
I like this version more than the flash events though, screw flash events

@novel pelican that would be because a lot of players have said events are too easy and finished quickly. They wanted more hostiles on events.

@novel pelican 100% .... they gave the community a try with an alternative way...... but completely f*cked things
novel pelican
More hostiles? We’ve tried multiple variations according to the event details , Tilly, Suruh, different ships. Can’t get more them 3M per kill, on lv31 hostiles, so the multipliers aren’t working. That means 300 hostiles for , let’s be honest, terrible rewards for the effort. They just messed up plain and simple
Add to that the multipliers were reinforced for using pvp captains? It’s like they don’t even understand their own game
real bluff
I will give the officers where a f**k up and they could do better. But they have done what was asked for by the players by giving more to do. So credit where credit is due. They are listening to the players. Just maybe we need to keep talking to them. Also feel they need to stop with new content till they have fixed a lot of the bugs
novel pelican
Honest truth they would never admit. “Discovery” show is a failure and CBS is yelling at them “more discovery content!” Just like Mickey yelling “more mandolorian!” In the South Park pandemic special
shrewd totem
@real bluff your level?
Lvl34-38 needs 900m=450 lvl33 hostiles or 10 trips with my Augur against 35s which is around 5-7m trit
Lvl39 is 1.6 BILLION points
It is 100% controversy to their Arc 2 idea of less playtime with almost 0 cost
novel pelican
Exactly @shrewd totem , my understanding is the event works for lower than 34 players. Can’t confirm but makes sense seeing some people saying the event was no big deal
shrewd totem
Yeah below 34 isnt a big deal but a decent amount of people are lvl34+
real bluff
33 and I know level 34 need 900mil
shrewd totem
And most of those 34-38 dont have the T6 Augur I have
viscid helm
at what level Dusty?
at 28 you do something like 28k in a single run with a disco...at 37 you need to do 900 Million pts
39s even apparantly can hardly reach the system they would need to go to
novel pelican
Well a few of our alliance members did it but they are lv42-46 with max ISS Jelly’s and K-Tingss so there’s that... 😂
real bluff
@novel pelican 33 was 131.3mil. Level 41 players had to do over 1bil in points. Yes the scoring was massively off. But as I've said they have listened when players have said events are too easy. They do need to fix the systems that you go too. But this is where constructive feedback is needed. Tell them whats wrong and then a way to improve it. I hate flash events. I said in my feedback they are ok for most players so keep them in the game but remove the sme from them and have them as a solo event
shrewd totem
That trit cost..... for a crap Disco tokens
They didn't listened to players,they just did what they wanted
viscid helm
the thing is simple Dusty: they aso said - not to take more of our time - which isnthe opposite of which they did... if I need to kill 300-400 ships for 1 of 3 grindings events for little rewards... that is just a joke
shrewd totem
Players asked for it to be 24h,not flash events but they never asked for it to be HARDER,people asked for LESS playtime
viscid helm
if there are big rewards - okay, make it harder, but not that nonsens

@real bluff I think we are arguing the same thing. If you read my earlier post I agree they killed off the horrible flash events and replaced with a 24 hour event. I applaud them for that. It’s just embarrassing they can’t get it right.

I gave them feedback that would have solved both issues. Keep the flash event style but run it for 24 hours. Just move the systems every 10-15 minutes. 1. Helps o use the discovery, which is what they wanted 2. Gives players with normal lives an opportunity to do the event when they can play on their time.

so scopely was totally surprised that there a many ships in a system and that this screws the server... like every single time befor.... remember those events when you had to do a mission but couldn't enter the system because there were to many ships?

@opal holly ha ha yeah assuming you can find some way of grinding umteen gazillion warp drive components... slower grind than the franklin as you only get them in the crappy events from loot boxes
Can we have a redesign of the whole combat engine.. At the moment, the best way to score points is to occupy the nodes with a whale ship that no one can touch unless hitting with 1000s of realtas with burning. Shields insta repair so even if a fleet were to turn up unless a ship is greater power there is no point in trying to clear them. Best just to send in a load of fast ships and run around for 30 minutes, that and the game cannot keep up with the amount of players in a single system at the same time.

Listen. Y’all know I’m the math guy. Has anyone bothered to math it out? I’m a level 39. I needed 1.6 BILLION points. It took 43 hostiles at level 35. And I couldn’t even use the critical system cause it was warp 120 (indeed that needs a look.... warp 120???)
But for the rest of you. The points look overwhelming. BUT it’s a damage event. And look at the scoring metric. You’re getting 10x points PER 1 damage. So if you do 2 mil damage on a level 35. That’s 20 mil points. Before critical anything. So this isn’t as hard as it seems. I did mine in just over 40 kills. 4 repairs. And I will admit that it is more expensive than any we’ve had before. But not mind blowing. And you had the trit event that laid out way more trit than you spend. Try before you knock it as garbage. It’s very doable. Even with a sally. Lol

warped stag
I’m not joining Battys club, he will not have me as a member.
mental yoke
Well based on the hundreds of reports of same so far then yeah...I’m sure it’s just me. I don’t have any screenshots anymore as I abandoned the event after some tries and went on with my other multitudes of tasks for the day.
nova valley
43 kills
warped stag
I’ve left it. That was last night. Got alot of additions since then.
shrewd totem
@warped stag lies! you are always welcomed!
warped stag
😱
nova valley
Listen. I’m not saying it’s not a challenge. But it’s not impossible. And if you wanna include yourself in the general madness of the masses @mental yoke you go ahead. But if you want I will help you. And you become better than everyone else. Up to you
shrewd totem
🤣
warped stag
Let me send my jelly back up with PMC
nova valley
First. The jelly isn’t the right ship to use with these I don’t think. How strong is your augur?
warped stag
I’m rather dubious about the speed of this event.
nova valley
@dire veldt got it figured out. Lol
warped stag
Augur is 2.7m
warped stag
Jelly is for life!
nova valley
Negative.
dire veldt
use the augur
warped stag
I might be a closet fan 😶
dire veldt
do some armadas with jelly while you grind
warped stag
Yeah, I know the jelly isn’t a dailies ship
dire veldt
check score after 1st armada
warped stag
Just joshing
nova valley
Phil is spot on. At your level harlii the jelly has one use. Armadas. Only. Lol
Nothing else haha
Mine stays in the garage. It’s gross how hard I worked to get it. Now to not use it
winged robin
@nova valley , appreciate your podcasts on Territories. It was extremely important from a strategy perspective...
nova valley
Thank you @winged robin !!
Perhaps a few others here would benefit from what we talk about. Lol
winged robin
I just hope a community manager pays attention too
bronze arch
121 level 35’s id have to hit to finish 1.6Bn points in the event. Way too much compared to the same for some mining the other day.
nova valley
I don’t let panic not pay attention. Lol he may not listen live but he knows what we say. Haha
warped stag
It is good, just need it on 1.5x speed
shrewd totem
2x
nova valley
Don’t disagree that it’s more work than the mining one @bronze arch but the event is based on 10points PER 1 damage. It LOOKS bloated. But it’s not that difficult to achieve. I did it with augur and 43 level 35 Exp and BS
Phil sounds like he did about the same
dire veldt
even though it's doable, the cost/reward is very poor
nova valley
For this one event I absolutely agree Phil. But they also dropped 20 mil trit from the sister event
dire veldt
the one i had to go kill 8 x 49 traders for?
nova valley
bronze arch
I just worked that out from hitting some 35’s with pike captain and using the augur.
nova valley
No. Do a few bubbly refines.
dire veldt
i had already done all my refines so i did that harcore mining style
nova valley
You can get over half your points with bubbly refines.
Hahaha me too. Exactly the same. But I wasn’t worried cause I woulda finished it with this mornings bubbly
dire veldt
all events were done about 3hrs after reset and there was a couple of base raids in there too
nova valley
About the same Phil. The cosmic cleanup one in my opinion was the one that needed the hardest look. And no one is complaining about that one lmao
dire veldt
now that one...
nova valley
That was the hardest grind for absolutely NO payout. I got like 5k ship xp. Frequency mods (don’t need) lol and something else that was bad. I can’t remember.
I pulled it live on YouTube. And my reaction was terrible.
“That’s it.....” lol
warped stag
Cosmic clean up was a breeze just the event store goodies were poor
shrewd totem
I got 700 Disco part for 1 lvl49 kill 🤷♂️
nova valley
That’s the one we need to be complaining about lol
dire veldt
i got 600 nanos some ship xp and 250 g4 exp parts, that was the one that annoyed me most
nova valley
See you got lucky Batman. I got NO SDC.
shrewd totem
I am always lucky
warped stag
I got a bit of all stuff
raw zenith
That event is crap. Utter crap
shrewd totem
got 1.1k Disco parts in 1st
dire veldt
i was hoping for SDC
nova valley
Oh mine was terrible. Freq mods. Ship xp. And charged nanos maybe? I don’t remember.
bronze arch
Comsmic clean up is easily manageable, 2 49 traders. Takes me 2 runs per hostile but easy enough to shortcut
nova valley
I got no SDC.
dire veldt
i was so disgusted i closed the app without screenshotting it lol
nova valley
LMAO same.
bronze arch
But the payout is crap. It should be a choice like a real event store
nova valley
To give some perspective. At ops 49 the points scales so high he had to kill 85 sol traders.
shrewd totem
you have choice,you are just limited
raw zenith
There is no defending the Vulcan Hello event.
nova valley
Tell me how expensive that would be for SDC and freq mods. Lol
Oh here we go. Lol @raw zenith were past this one. Go back and read and catch up lol
dire veldt
people can't giveaway FMs fast enough on my server
warped stag
I’m questioning building my 3rd franky. Maybe wait for a tierup event.
nova valley
Vulcan hello is very obtainable. Just gotta be savvy in what you hit and what you are getting.
south arrow
I’m only getting 13 mill per 35 using jelly and pike
nova valley
What’s your ops level? Who/what is yo ur critical cap and system?
Also. The 35 battleships give almost triple pijnts. They’re HARDER. But much better payout than th explorers.
raw zenith
Vulcan Hello is crap. Ops 34 and they want me to use Saru or Tilly, ie pvp officers. Its crap
nova valley
More hull.
tawny coyote
I’m getting different score amount and I hit the same ship using my sally.
raw zenith
Im not wasting my time with an event that quadroupled in difficulty for the same payout
nova valley
Scores depend on hull damage @tawny coyote not all ships are same. Battleships pay better and are still largely energy
shrewd totem
it is more like 20x rather than 4x
nova valley
40 hostiles is too hard?
shrewd totem
took me 1h to finish it,use to take 5mins at max to be done with flash events in Arc 2
raw zenith
try 400 hostiles
shrewd totem
not everyone has your ships Dj
nova valley
It’s not 400 lol
tawny coyote
I get that but I hit a battle ship and I get one score hit the same battle ship and get a different score. Let me switch ship and try to get a screenshot.
shrewd totem
it is either lots of hostiles or suicide ships a few dozens times for us mortals
but go on keep defending them
raw zenith
not suiciding either
nova valley
You get 10 points per 1 DAMAGE. - level 35 battleship is gonna get ya about 35 mil points if using pike.
Took me 43. And if you’re objectives are the same as mine you should have an augur.
nova valley
So you needed 900 mil.
raw zenith
yep
nova valley
And Tully was your critical captain.
nova valley
Ok. That’s slightly crappy. And more of a grind cause of sally.
raw zenith
exactly. utter garbage
nova valley
What’s the highest anomaly hostile you can kill say 10 of one hull?
Can you kill 33s or 35s?
raw zenith
33's give me 2m points each
nova valley
The 31s are giving 2 mil
Mmm. Should be more than that.
33’s should be closer to 6-7 mil.
raw zenith
but i used pike crew and it took way too much from my hull to even try their suggested saru and tilly
raw zenith
gotta go work
bronze arch
25m points for a 35 battleship and all but dead. Not worth it. Not killing 64 hositles. Need SDC but no thanks scopley
glass storm
level 34 here, i can manage 10 level 31s before breaking my hull. that gives me 28 mil points per trip, only need 900 mil. thats at least 31 trips, to hit maximum points. just dont have the time to finish this vulcan hello event. i miss the flash version
dire veldt
what ship?
glass storm
my best ship, which one do you think im using?
dire veldt
10 x 31s, maybe a Kumari against the triangle?
glass storm
please reread phil, im level 34, why would i still have a kumari?
native umbra
Has anyone else noticed Capture Nodes seemingly not working?
dire veldt
I'm looking at 33 exp and bs and they have 200-300k hull, they hit hard but surely you should be able to kill more that that with a t5-6 rare ship?
safe raft
<@&509690795536941056> it looks like the +3 from capture nodes isnt working.
We are currently taking a t2 and have 60+ ships in but only 900 points in 15 minutes with all nodes occupied
native umbra
Yes we have 27 capture nodes occupied which should score 108 points per minute on their own even not counting the other ships in the system
We're not being challenged by another alliance so our ships are there continuously
safe raft
😬 ☝️ same alliance
meager zinc
I love how Scopely is basically giving everyone over ops 33 the finger for the Vulcan hello event and basically saying “Grind more if you want to finish this event. We might fix it for the next one.”
tawny coyote
See two different hit with the same ship back to back. Waited for shield to be full. Two different score. @nova valley
lucid sparrow
Same thing happening to me
tawny coyote
How they calculate not sure. That is another reason I stop. I think is broken. I didn’t change anything.
nova valley
Now now. @tawny coyote you know better than to rely on toasts. Hahahaha double check the event board to be sure.
tawny coyote
Let me see.
nova valley
I’m sure you checked. But the hostile strength was full too? Cause these are damage based. So if hull is partial you’ll get fewer points.
Partial on the hostile that is
tawny coyote
No both were fully un damage ship. I’m the only one in this sector hitting hostile. I warp in waited a second to find a battle ship. Hit the first one, then waited for my shield to be at full strength then hit another.
lucid sparrow
Event score is just changing by the banner score, I have screen shots. Same exact hostiles, full strength, same crew and getting two different scores
I’ll submit a ticket
tawny coyote
It’s like one time they score for the Capt option and the other they don’t. I’m guessing, could not figure it out.
meager zinc
I’ll submit a ticket
@lucid sparrow A ticket...that”s cute. I applaud your intentions, but they’re not going to do do anything about it. If they were, they would have posted something or disabled the event. They just don’t care enough to actually take action for those of us over ops 33
cosmic sage
Burning and crits affect the score, I was usually getting between 4-6m points when I put Georgie on the bridge.
meager zinc
They can’t afford to piss off those under ops 33. They have to keep those fish on the hook. For those of us above 33,they rely on the fact e are too invested to just walk away
tawny coyote
Yes but it should not change. I the same math. I use Tylli as Capt.
cosmic sage
Sunken cost fallacy, its never too late to walk away.
meager zinc
Sunken cost fallacy, its never too late to walk away.
@cosmic sage I agree. Yet they don’t seem to understand or are not willing to balance this for the current run of the event,
quick sand
Listen. Y’all know I’m the math guy.
@nova valley 👀 🤔
nova valley
Ok ok. I’m ONE OF THE math guys. Lmao
Farty does more math than me. Farty did you finish Vulcan hello?
rough mulch
<@&509690795536941056> it looks like the +3 from capture nodes isnt working.
We are currently taking a t2 and have 60+ ships in but only 900 points in 15 minutes with all nodes occupied
@safe raft can you pm your details so we can double check?
meager zinc
It’s possible to do this event. The issue is why should I have to grind out 900mil at 34 when a level 33 only has to do 131 mil. That is the issue. The disparity between the brackets and the time differentials
cosmic sage
The event definitely needs to be tuned though. All that work and I got 70 spore parts and not enough discovery recruit shards to open a chest.
quick sand
You mean this? yep...
nova valley
@meager zinc now we’re on to something. I don’t disagree there at all. Lol I MAY have misinterpreted your intent from ALLLLLLLLL the other complaints about this event. Lol
I’ve explained it 38959373 times. Lol your point is unique. So thank you. Haha
quick sand
Ok ok. I’m ONE OF THE math guys. Lmao
@nova valley hmmm
meager zinc
How is there such a jump right at that point? It’s as if the curve went waaaaay out of control after 33
nova valley
Oh stop farty. Lol
quick sand
I'm 37
nova valley
But. Now that you’re here I’m gonna bounce. I have some muddmadas to run
Tag you’re it! @quick sand
tawny coyote
Do we know why we get two different score?
quick sand
score?
tawny coyote
Yes. See same ship, same target, same officer set up.
cosmic sage
Crits or burning most likely
quick sand
depends if the ship was full health or damaged killing another player
quick sand
@tawny coyote look at how the scoring works ...
officer too play a big part
I ran Saru + Georgiou + Brnham on my Augur
tawny coyote
Yes but nothing change. I use Tylli as Capt Chew and Monroe
quick sand
I ran PMD on my Ent
Both ships scored differently
Try it
Also ... as I said above, it also depends if the ship was full health or damaged killing another player
cosmic sage
The discrepancies in scores i had were from crits. I was getting between 1.4-3m at first but I put Georgiou on my ent and was regularly getting 4-6m but still 1.4m if I had no crits or burning activate.
edgy gull
@twilit imp I hope todays mission will not require stupid amount of points again otherwise give us new system with enemies 25-35
lucid sparrow
Trillian is right, critical hits produce different scores
quick sand
Key here is "damage", not XP or strength
lucid sparrow
True, but you would still think there is a max hull health of the hostile and your potential damage is only that amount
But with shields and everything, I know there are other factors, just seems like 2-3 very different scores on the same hostile is off
quick sand
hold 5 while I get an answer
pale cobalt
Damage Dealt and Damage Caused are 2 totally different figures
Needs to be clearer in the events as to which it is dealt or caused
verbal frost
Anyone here managed to finish the vulcan hello!
Its impossible
Cant even get past the first checkpoint
alpine lagoon
nope, gave up last night
pale cobalt
Ops 33 was challenging but doable higher level does seem to be extremely difficult to complete
winged tulip
I did the maths before i started and nope-d out
verbal frost
Im ops 36 and its impossible
Even higher levels in my alliance lvl46
Is struggling with it
pale cobalt
Higher level pts do need to be reduced but for 33 it needs to be left alone if it's too easy it's boring for my level it was the perfect balance
thorny heath
Anyone here managed to finish the vulcan hello!
@verbal frost yes
verbal frost
Level?
thorny heath
38
warm bobcat
Think basically everyone l34+ on my server said nope
verbal frost
Lol. That must have been costly then.
We will soon have to buy packs to finish one event lol
edgy gull
that is their strategy -_-
thorny heath
Wasn't so difficult, 4 augur runs for lvl 35
tight quest
Pretty sure the Vulcan hello is not calculating right for some. No bonus points for captain or critical system.
verbal frost
It says i need to get 900million and im getting 3 million per hit lol
3 mil in a critical system lol
pale cobalt
A lvl 38 on my server worked out that he got more pts from hitting 33's then he was getting in the 31 crit systems
tight quest
But is the event right. 1 damage point in critical systems/captain x 10?
Or am I misreading that.
So a 200k hit should be 2 million.
In theory
lucid sparrow
@tight quest it goes even deeper than that, read back in the chain. Critical hits can help your score and you’ll see big differences
thorny heath
It says i need to get 900million and im getting 3 million per hit lol
@verbal frost lvl 35 get 13,6m points in crit sys
lucid sparrow
I made it halfway thru event and giving up, too tedious
verbal frost
@verbal frost lvl 35 get 13,6m points in crit sys
@thorny heath all crit systems for me are lvl 31. No higjer crit ststems
tight quest
I am a 31, used a critical system and captain and lost my Sally and only got 700k. It would take me 20 more times just to get first tier.
My first hit was 294k according to the battle log
thorny heath
@verbal frost velata for me
tight quest
I was in Pandosia
elder gyro
So @twilit imp plz address yesterday's event and tell us if the devs are working on the redulicousness
This was nuts
elder gyro
Lvl and how much money have you spent
dapper drum
lvl 37 and I don't spend
sent 3 ships to critical system 2 with critical captain
2 runs and done
dapper drum
maybe you should work on hand eye coordination
I had all 3 ships almost alwyas constantly in battle
quick sand
Okay ... I have a reply from a Scopely contact regarding the scoring for "The Vulcan Hello" event. The response was:
"just [damage done to the] hull, however much is depleted from the hull is the amount that is multiplied by 10"
So, here is the health for the Brid of Prey Annihilators by level:

indigo totem
Don't know what server that is, but critical systems were crowded. I was in critical system, with critical captain, and took about 40 kills to get to level 1 on the event
shrewd totem
he is known for trolling people btw
elder gyro
Figured
indigo totem
the key is event breakdown by ops lvl. at 34, i could see this event rewards weren't worth my time
elder gyro
@quick sand i dont think they multiplied it by 10 the literally put +10 not x10
quick sand
I can only tell you what I was told
indigo totem
preciate it
elder gyro
quick sand
I can read
elder gyro
They may want to relook into that then
quick sand
and yes, I have passed that on
elder gyro
Tank you
Thats te points i got killing 10 35s not even the first tier
A repair each time
quick sand
in the past we were told that banners were not always correct. This may be another case of that
indigo totem
right
elder gyro
Agreed
novel pelican
@quick sand Could you also pass on to them if they are going to run a HOSTILE killing event, don’t force PLAYER pvp focused captains for it. Should be a no brainer...
elder gyro
Right
quick sand
@novel pelican that is to go in the the feedback section below and in the survey when it comes out
novel hollow
Thanks Fartasia for your help
quick sand
Here is a response from a dev regarding the "vulcan hello" event
shrewd totem
I think that was about w120 crit system at 39
dreamy hearth
@quick sand Based on what Scopley provided and the chart you gave then does this look correct to you? So if a 1mil power Bortus can take say 10 (and I think that's overestimating what a 1 mil Bortus can do) lvl 31 Scouts. That would mean it would take 7 trips. and each repair costs 460L trit, 12K Dil and 6 hours repair time. That times 7 = 3.22MIl Trit , 84K Dil and 42 hours of repairs. For a lvl 31 player... And in return you get 128 Discovery Refine Tokens and 8K Cultivated Mycelium?
honest leaf
Is there any work being done to help with lag during territory battles?
mint idol
Scopely fix the lag or camcel the territory capture events until you do its not rocket science!!!
lean flicker
Did they fix the hello vulcan event? Dont want to waste anymore speed up repair on this? They should have compensate people for their mistake, im surprise they didnt.
warped stag
I think that was about w120 crit system at 39
@shrewd totem yep, rare ship parts for the jelly to hit t11 with a jelly. Scrapping mayflowers will not help.
Counting 39 in for a system suited to 42 ships is out of sync.
edgy gull
sadly again, impossible event for people with strong ships, elite separatis don't have enough hp for points, bosses impossible to kill unless your ship is around 1m
novel hollow
Meh went through this before not gonna do it again -
So your saying you refuse to grind because ? The benefits are just terrible? You hate the fact you would get rewards for multiple events by grinding ?
Meh ...
edgy gull
no
unless I want to destroy 1500 elite separatis ships
or maybe more
there should be another system with stronger elite ships
or armadas would be nice 
broken dust
Fury is basically crashing the server 17...every time we do a territory capture 😂
abstract gate
second mission hangs up cause Scopely either cant fix the game or they dont want to..Yet players keep spending money on this glitchy game.. makes you wonder who here is the problem.. Cause as long as players spend money on a glitchy game,, Scopely has no reason to fix it..
inner ermine
do territorys have to link up
warm bobcat
do territorys have to link up
@inner ermine yes, all territories have to be connected to at least one other held territory
jaunty copper
@shrewd totem what about the lag issue during take overs? Any update on a fix date for that?
last hamlet
Well our server only take over who had ally alliances could take over zone. Our indended team were not able to take any zone since we cant fight vs. 3 alliances allied and killing us.
ANd we are independed cause we like to run peacefull team and not join in alliance wars all the time
oak iris
limiting number of player in zone will fix lag
rocky relic
The separatist bp event in theory is good. But your points expectations are garbage. I am not going to blow 33 hours worth of repair speedups plus millions in tritanium just to suicide myself 11 times to and complete this thing. Reduce your numbers. In this event
last hamlet
what ops you are?
IF youre ops28 you should have atleast 600k sally already and able to kill 1 or 2 bosses
Or you play with payflower?
robust vapor
@edgy gull you can kill a separatist boss with much less than that, you just may need to reconsider your crew and/or tactics.
If you and @rocky relic have Pike crew you should definitely throw on PMC and head over to the federation system. If not you can try using Kumak captain, Nero and Decius; I'd be inclined to hit the Federation system still, but I don't think it's so critical as with PMC.
If you're still struggling another option is to use 2 ships, 1 to soften the Shields so that the second can get more hull damage in.
rocky relic
Interesting. what's PMC?
ripe iris
Or you can skip Separatist events, there is enough points in later events to finish BP in time
robust vapor
@rocky relic pike, Moreau and Chen.
rocky relic
That worries me if theres too many of these that I won't have enough points to complete. I got lucky yesterday because I was doing Swarm missions and since some swarms were 1 they counted
Ahh I don't have pike
robust vapor
Give Kumak, Nero and Decius a try.
Federation might still be easier too, they have no kinetic weapons.
rocky relic
hmmm I don't have nero or pike, can I sub kirk for pike?
sullen yarrow
Cadet UhurA
rocky relic
uhura as cap?
ripe iris
There is not that many, I was skipping them in previous Battle passes and still finishing BP 3-4 days before
sullen yarrow
Yes
sullen yarrow
And cadet Mccoy
robust vapor
Cadets are less good here, because you're going to die most likely still. Morale crew probably be better for damage reduction in that case, because as soon as your shields drop your damage will shoot up more than the cadets are reducing by.
edgy gull
@robust vapor hm, but you must also use the right ship. If your ship isn't on certain power level, no crew will help you
rocky relic
I"ve been using Otto, Marla, 8of10
for my mayflower
Marla as cap to reduce my repair time by almost 90 minutes
resulted in 4.7 mil in damage each time I attacked
edgy gull
ship power level 400k
can it destroy a separatis boss? @robust vapor
rocky relic
ship power is 560k but can't destroy
robust vapor
@edgy gull if you have PMC probably, but you don't have to destroy it is the important thing to remember.
@rocky relic without some of the right crew it doesn't help.. How about Kirk captain, Spock and Decius? I haven't tried that one, but it would have promise still.
edgy gull
I got pike recently so I try to throw him at my captain's chair
robust vapor
Pike, Moreau and Chen, hit the feds
rocky relic
I will give it a shot thanks!
edgy gull
I try, interceptor class?
quasi token
Use the Vidar and Franklin. Best events so far this arc. More of these please.
