k thanks,
So no projectile event and a borg refinery event that is not available at level 25?
hmm, the third one allows you to join without ticket.
wheres the prelude event?
the big borg cube icon š
Yeah, the one time I didnāt want to do the combat training in favor of another event
If someone here has joined it, what are the rewards?
Great move scoply! Ticket event with no tickets... how the heck we supposed to play em?
No idea
It's so nice to have Borg events for our players under L25. I have no idea what to tell them.
If you click join now on that screen, you dont join
Click Join
Clicked Join now, I have no ticket. And event that I did not want, but thats Scopley
I didnt get ticket as well
There is no ticket. You can chose one ticketed event for FREE !
Really SCOPELY .... event after event the same š©
Incorrect I think. You get the store for the ones that say view.
Whatās the spawning rate?
Maybe you're 'right, I took the combat training, that one was free for me.
All I see for ticketed events in store is for $99
It's pretty lowlife to give bs answers to questions on this forum
I see no free way to get a ticket per se. The Combat Training is somehow screwed up, it thinks you have a ticket.
How are you supposed to do the events without a vidar?
It seems that you're not supposed to 𤣠Just as myself
So what Level is the Borg Event? Iām L25 with a ViDar and donāt see it
Im 26 without vidar and I see them. So you could restart the game - it should appear for you
domination is always to hard, the amount on building research for finish is ridiculous high for one minor event with little reward
2 scouts. No chests. Ridiculous
Domination is best done with Officer XP... though it does mean leaving officers unleveled longer than I'd like...
Nope - Unity BP, Dom, Alliance prep and Swarm ticketed, Anomalous Phen, Threat from beyond Daily events in my Event list
normal
Can these idiots do anything right?
nope
No event tickets today?
Borg event L25, ViDar. Eclipse events L27 Stella. Territory L29 Sarco
@celest cloud I'm 24 and have no borg events... probably need to restart lol
No you need the Vi'Dar which is a L25 ship.
I tried that and nothing- Iām L35 with the ViDar
I mean, I suppose others could try some of the milestones but...?
*L25
so no free ticket?
one event is free to join
<@&509691205798592532> havenāt seen any event tickets today. Are they being pushed out later?
None of the events are free for me. They all require tickets
sorry I thought you were saying you had players with the event that weren't level 25 yet... sarcasm?
So have an entire server hunt faction scouts and don't increase Spawn rate of said faction scouts. Nice
you're not getting any tickets. one is free to join. the others are for people who won extra tickets in prior event
but its the gas event, it sucks that iam forced to do gas event
Swarm Attack ticket event is for free
I counter with ship xp
Restarted game and still no free tickets to do one ticketed event. Didn't they say when ticketed events started that they'd always supply at least enough tickets to do one ticketed event? Seems like bait and switch to me.
All of my ticketed events need tickets
one of these three events for tickets does not require tickets.@median sundial
not for me, it requires ticket as well
Guess I'm screwed. Not free for me
I looked 10 minutes ago and it was free. I looked again now and it's not anymore
sorry guys...
Maybe they "fixed" it
hey guys your supposed to just try and see which one is free - some scopely sympathizer
and you should be able to choose if it were free as if you had a ticket which were told that we'd be sent one free each ticket events
Yeah it was probably a bug that it was free
scopely is scopeling
So borg probes were arrival 2 and helping do borg armadas were arrival 4.
Anyone else find anything?
All of mine require tickets.
simple helps/donations work for arrival 4
1 is killing a scout and opening the chest.
Arrival 4 is Alliance contrib
scopuli....
Arrival 1 doesn't work with faction scouts
you have to open the chest
You have to get a mega chest (if your lucky) then open it.
š¤£
scopely must learn to adjust respawntimers for events (armadas, scouts....)
yep, but i think loong cooldowns are intended
<@&509690795536941056> sooo borg cred events with no borg store?
bring back mining š¤£
borg store will pop up tommorow like they did at the first terrible borg event
<@&509690795536941056> and no tickets for events today?
prepare for the suckage
yea, where do i get tickets?
don't stop at a stop sign in front of a cop
seriously though, only in store it seems
Swarm attack was free earlier, now needs a ticket, with no tickets available
Ops 35 players in my alliance got a free event. Ops 33 and 39 ones didn't
I got that swarm event for free, click. Don't see Borg event, ops 25 with vidar
Outlaw Josey Wales
Have you got ticket for ticket event
Still waiting for my ticket
Missing tickets server 46 again
same for server 138
no tickets on server 139 either
145 is same
41 the same
It seems they have messed it up again - like they do every new event.
No tickets for ticketed events and I canāt see the Borg event on S22
Reset a few times and cleared localisation
What scouts kills work for Arrival 1
scouts + chest opening
Any faction?
yes
thanks bud
can any1 tell me in which systems these scouts spawn?
lcars can
Any faction system lvl 32+
never used lcars
They will be as rare as rocking horse shite
thx ^^
!scouts
that's the explanation, was waiting in a lv31 system š
cya, gl with the event
wait a sec, Nelvana is 32, waiting for 15min
Anybody not see the tickets anywhere ? 3/4s of my alliance canāt start them as the tickets are nowhere to be found and all events complete
Yeah seems to be a thing...again
Scopely!!!! Cāmon i am running out of slack to give you .....
how often do Scouts spawn?
Depends in the system usually under 15 mins
Good thing content creators keep showing us other games to play.
Tickets in gift section now on server 138
Event 3?
@sage mango refine nanoprobes
Guys who started the swarm attackmalso got tickets, so 2 events for them
Yeah the folks who managed to start on 30 with whatever that glitch was gain advantage. Lucky them i guess.
Borg recruit tokens but no Borg recruit chests WTF?????????š¤£
Just one more question mark and weāll take you seriously
? There ya goš¤£
Any news on the plasma blast event folks?
I'm not even frustrated lol I'm actually laughing my a.ss off cuz they NEVER roll out anything without f ing up lmao.
arrive 4 what to do?
And even though the tickets are rolling out, they have a 24 hour cool down ensuring you will have to wait this amount of time past event start yet again tomorrow, instead of simply adjusting the cool down to match event.
We are only 2 hours into the events. I doubt anyone cares about 2 hours missing.
some people have jobs, schedules and limited time to play so there is that
Good evening everyone, what should be done in this event?
I think this is what Scopely continually forget.. players have jobs, chores, lives to lead. The majority have a few hours in the evening where they have a window. This is one of the reasons I feel that the way they run territory defences stagnates so much.. not only do they lag too much but many players can't just stop working to attend a defence.
- open a message chest off a scout 2. shoot borg probes 3. refine inert borg probes 4. provide alliance helps
Thank you very much š
- provide alliance helps - 1 at a time not help all
a forever bug
If you do help all, doesn't it count the helps past the first the next time you send help?
counts once
Anyone found bigfoot yet because I cant find a scout asshats scopely
haha
no armadas to be found anywhere grr
Have you heard anything about the plasma blasts?
So no viādar = no full rewards eh
Anytimešš»
Itās a mobile game and not everyone has the same amount of time as I or many others do so Iām sure it does matter to some. And it would be simple for Scopley to take this into account and rectify it.
tickets now on server 174
No store for borg recruits , borg war funds or the tokens in ticket event yet ?????
Not a single scout to be found, nice event š© š©
it does count, it will add any missed points on next help
Completed swarm ticket event yet no parsteel rewards... what gives
Anyone else having similar issue?
Iām still trying to find out if Scopely have randomly excluded level 25 from the Borg event or if itās a glitch
soon
soonā¢ļø
back to re-binging Initial-D
Hey, im lvl 26 without a vidar. Is it possible for me to complete every mission from the āreturn of the mega cubeā evet?
Probably not, based on what I'm seeing elsewhere.
How disgusting scopely
Iām sorry for not having the money to spend on a game. Im really really sorry for barely paying the bills and not being able to pay you guys for a vidar...
You can get them from the event store
They still š you though...
Thatās what iāvee been doing for the last months
Still need 30 bps
Yes and we probably need the āborg war fundsā to buy them
Which you are getting right now
But hold on... no vidar equals not being able to finish second quest of the event which means only 2k war funds which means not enough to buy vidar bps
They'll probably fix it so it's possible... they always do.
sure, for the next time they run the event!
No matter what they do youāll still need to payš
Feel free to message me or even call me via discord if you see them handing out vidar bps after they āfixedā the āissueā where you can only get 2k war funds if you dont have the ship...
Having exactly the same issue! Lvl 27 and no vidar... Also need 30bps still
You can do the 3rd and 4th without doing the second
I donāt get the points even though im sending helps
You cannot refine nanoprobes without having some to refine....
FWIW: I'm mostly F2P and you really can do most everything without spending... it may be slower but thats the tradeoff.
Well itās either pay them or wander on your own on the bottom of the ranks
Helps are working for me, that might be a glitch
That is broken and you have to do each help individually. If it's not counting anything for you send in a ticket
Thank god i hope itās a glitch
You should be racking up points
Oh nice wonāt get the last milestone only because weāre vidarless
Well, you can't get to probe space for part 2 or refine for part 3
Can anyone tell me if there is a level limit?
I have the ViDar (150 bps free through events) but have no Borg event
Has anyone tagged a moderator about not having a vidar?
they gave out 6 borg tokens a few months back, so it's possible for some people to do 2
No
You really think theyāll answer?
they probably know, but they have nothing to answer with
No acces to refinery without vidar
Exactly
2 doesn't use refinery
I'd go that route just to ask and see if scopely is looking at it... just do it nicely and they might respond
@nova valley ?? See above, š
I'll admit it is a catch-22 for newer folks
They couldāve given a Borg space token in the gift chest
that'll only help for 2, but not for 3
and very few can kill a borg probe without a vidar
You get 2 a day
Only if you have a vidar
Congrats on your vidarš
Well yes help for 2, and use it to kill and thatāll help for 3. If you go to a 25 system
Exactly, whats the point in giving Borg space tokens if you dont have one
most of the people complaining are lower levels who couldn't kill a probe at any level even if they could enter the system
I thought this was meant to be a catch-up arc.... But they have given us no way to earn the required vidar to catch-up and now we cannot complete the events that require....
I was taking them with my Kehra when I was level 23 before I got the ViDar.
Only got a couple and no replacement warp tokens but still...
Itās just how scopely works nothing we can do about it
Im lvl 26 and if thats the case im sure my t7 legion could do a few more
But yet my battle pass is giving me Franklin bps... Which I already have! š Honestly it's ridiculous....
Exactly smh
I just canāt see the event- Iāll be really annoyed if itās not a glitch
Shit happens, like giving me Jellyfish/Augur BP's in Rare and Epic chests when i dont need them
so where is the event store exactly?
Thatās what Iām looking for - what level are you?
I have neither - and I have the ViDar
other lvls have iti?
Yep. Donāt know if any other 25s have it though
Which event store?? There isnāt the Borg one out yet.
Donāt think the event store will open for a couple of days when the Megacubes start. I thought you meant the missions
I assume all the items from last years event carry over
What kind of items were there?
The war funds from last year still count towards this event store
And no armada system warp tokens need from what I have heard.
Over 2 hours and still 0 scouts. Without any doubt the dumbest event ever 
I've killed 2 scouts and no messages
did you collect from items
Any update on the crit projectiles?
I didn't get a chest from the victories
One in our alliance has killed 4 scouts and no chests
you should have rom, fed or kln message
Not all scouts drop messages, Feds seems to be the worst for low drop rate of messages
2 fed scouts for me, 4 klingons scouts for him and nothing. Odds are poor it seems
Ok, this event seems impossible for most of us to even start. S U C K S
Finally found a scout, only too over 4 hours š”
If you kill scouts below your level, they are less likely to drop chests
Why i“ve got the Borgevents without Vidar
Events are ops based not ship based if you are able to build the ship at your ops level you get the event
Jo LoL groĆes Kino
There is no way Ingame to get the BP for the Vidar. The only way is Event, in that way its very stupid
incorrect, i'm OPS 25, got Vidar T5 but not allowed to participate, appenrently its OPS 26+.....
And where you got the Vidar, by Event not normal Ingame conntent
That is still ops based for the event
I got it from Disco and previous event stores Doctor Who
Correct its OPS based, but Vidar is OPS 25 (well technically Shipyard 25) so the 2nd part of your statement was incorrect š
Yeah in general the events are based on you being able to build the ship at your current level, there are a few events like this one, where you need to be one level higher then you can build it
But most cases if it can be built at your ops level you get the event
i agree, i'm just pissed that its a Borg/Vi'dar event and i cant participate....
But it's Scopely....
Well Vidar BPs can be gained form every ARC (½ a ship) and the cosmic cleanout provides as well...
But if you are really fresh, you donāt have the opportunity to do so.
And there wasn“t 500 Epic-Galaxie-Tokens
200 were feasible without spending money
Nope. I can build it - have one at T8 - but donāt have the event
Iām with you mate - they could have said it was Ops 26
Will the main event also lock us out?
At the event, good designers would also have oriented themselves towards the ship and not just the level.
This is the first I remember where you need to be one level higher than the build level
There have been a couple
I probably didnāt have the ships at the time so wouldnāt have expected to get the event
At what level would you have to be able to use the refinery for the event, with me at level 28 there is nothing to convert.
For Eventquest Arrival III
if you have the vi'dar, you have borg refinery already š
and those ops26 without a vi'dar, c'mon, it's pretty easy to get one, they've been giving it on every Cosmic cleanup and on every final arc. if you don't have it you rushed your ops too fast
Thatās a joke, Iām supposed to do the event without a Vidar because itās theoretically possible to have her at 28, but thereās no raffery, so we make it dependent on the ship.
stop blaming the greedy scopely for your lack of planning
well, you can't kill a probe without it anyway, so doesn't make any sense to have the refinery
good for you. how is that you are 28 and don't have a vi'dar, you had plenty of opportunities to get it
As I said earlier, I was killing a few with my Kehra at Ops 23
Iām just annoyed Iāve spent this month working my ViDar for the event and it looks like Scopely are not setting it at the ship build level
Would have been helpful, although still annoying, if they said that
Yes, unfortunately, once again an event that was not really thought through but just an excuse to sell packages in the shop.
Loved the fact that exchange armada directives were available on pay store
Money money money
You know, it would be a lot easier to get the scouts that the entire server is chasing after if you didnt follow it across the entire map only to be told 'invalid ship location' when you got there and it disappears.
what is the mission objective of Arrival 4?
There shouldn't be a textual mistake re Anom Phenom. How hard is it to change a text box from Travel/Summon with Disco to Summon only. Former was how it used to be, don't mind that they changed the mechanic ,do mind traveling twice before I noticed.
Alliance helps
Doesn't make sense, I've completed 4&5 but haven't started 1-3 yet...
thx, tribbles
@opal tree I donāt know if itās the poor timing of my levels, but Iām 26 without a viādar. Bought at every available chance from cosmic and the last event store.
Still 20 short unfortunately.
No more plasma blast on April 18-19 events?
Aren't we supposed to have it in the events on server time April 18th-19th?
Well anyways, "events always change.."
I'm in the same situation, ops lvl 28, bought vidar bps at every opportunity but still 20 short. Can't finish event. They should have an alternative event stream for those that do not have the vidar
Doesnāt matter Iām ops27, got the ViāDar and the Borg refinery. There is nothing in the Borg Refinery (or event store) that I can use Borg War Funds on.
That store is open in two days
Okay, I feel stupid, but I have looked all over Borg Space and I can't seem to find the Probes, which system are they in?
The lowest level ones are found in Metra Alpha, Metra Beta and Metra Gamma
Thank you very much
vidar can be got at ops 26 they literaly give bp away in almost every event store
for those struggling to understand this game please join this discord https://discord.gg/WcYwJU2G2h it will help you learn so much more about this game
90% of your questions are already answered there
the remaining 10% just ask there
loadsa good videos and info there
Just checked the in game event schedule for this battlepass on the event board in the middle of the base... mention of the weapon refit has been removed.
It was listed under the Arrival event before.
Hopefully the downtime fixes the lag issues. All 4 arrival events completed and it took an hour for the final one to be rewarded š¤¦āāļø
easy peasy
I remembered something like this happened before in past arc.. š
Moan moan moan! š¤£
I dont think thats moaning but if you are gullible i guess you would call that moaning
I liked the event (arrival). Thought for a change they had struck a reasonable balance between reward and grind, and removed some of the frictions of previous (by allowing all four parts to be done at same time). Lag well... Sunday night is always busy (territory and swarms and anomalies which slow game down)
I was joking.
Hi I don't seem to have a way to refine BORG for arrival part 3 completed all others. Don't have a vidar is this the problem
How did you complete the one where you have to kill borg probes then? Genuinely curious, as there are other complaining they can't complete the event because they don't have a Vi'Dar.
Saladin 600k with BORG crew7,8,9 was easy Metra alpha system. ,
But I don't have the refine option available it says available with special events in refinery
yes
You need the Vi'Dar to get the Borg Refinery, No Vi'Dar, No refinery
refine opens with vidar and changes per vidar tier
How did you obtain the transwarp cells? They usually show up in gifts after you've built the vidar
Need 55 shards to build vidar , concentrated on dvor, Saladin and Franklin in recent events
Hi presume they were in an event chest recently as 2 weeks ago I did not have any
I just noticed that too. What happened!?
Where can I do the Arrival 1 thingy? Is there are particular system I have to be in?
Find and kill a scout ship, and then claim the loot chest that contain the messages
Lookie lookie, so why does every other event store open with its associated event (as far as I know)? Something to hide I think.
Anyone know when we will have g3/4 auctions again?
hopefully never
If thatās true, which I am fine with, I would like to know. I have a stockpile and Iād like to use it on research and ship upgrades.
So use it, and stop waiting
Pretty sure one of the Swarm War events was a mat spend leaderboard... and that's coming up to round out the month of events
That was for the Jaylah avi I think
There will be another one for the Franklin -A refit
Anyone know how long this maintenance cycle is due to last
I didnāt think there was one scheduled today.
i think scopely should add an event only for those who have not yet got the vidar that allows them get all the bp so they can be ready for the megacube event
Same for me, unexpected maintenance
Yay that means free loot chest
A lot of us are gonna miss completing events š”š”š”
Yeah but how? They seem more elusive than borg assimilated traders...
Soo this messes up the iss jelly event as well. Can't wait to see what they say when I put in a ticket
Working as intended
Will the servers be up again to finish swarm Sundays?
It will screwup my cool down timers ... š
@tawny marsh No.
Soooooooooo are we gonna get all our events completed for us since I canāt go in game to do it myself?
I want my Khan shards
You had 22 hours... sorry š
Lately thatās been my move. I do want at least 1 refit. This might be my best chance as I am limiting my game time
They can just extend these events a few hours
Give people a fair chance to complete them
I saved for over 6 months to get almost 4m points in the iss jelly event. I was second the last time I checked and now ....... I might get it? Help me scopley you're my only hope!
Same boat POSTWAR...
These events just get worse and worse
can't finish the events cause of US server maintenance
Hey let's be honest this is the best event of the arc so far.
Can you say compensation chest?
Time to go outside?
US players will receive:
- a compensation chest
- a ceasefire that will last 8 hours
Better be one heck of a compensation chest for this massive screw up
"COMING SOON: Trouble with Lag? LAG ARMADAS ARE COMING SOON!" - Scopely.
"NO LAG SKINS ALSO COMING FOR SHIPS! SPEND SPEND SPEND!"
They already got these, they call them eclipse armadas
@normal folio Oh, come on, I'm helping make the next arc an even worse travesty!
š
Comp chest: 10k par
COMING SOON FROM SCOPELY
Lag Armadas!: Tired of Lag? We can't handle it, so we'll have server level armadas where servers fight for the most bandwidth.
Anti-Lag Skins!: 1% of you can gain a full skin for a Realta that defies lag! Spend as much G4 as you can to win!
New Ships!: What everyone needs is Yet Another Ship! So what we're going to do is copy all of your existing ships and make them better (tm).
New Officers!: 10 of 9 will be added with abilities to make your ships invisible only to you! (Yes, we know, but we couldn't renumber all other officers)
The storyline:
Warp here! Warp there! Blow up that mission ship that is either ridiculously easy or hard for your Operations Level and ships gimped without skins! Then get just enough officer shards of an officer that doesn't really work, but will SOON!
Hope we getting compensated for all events we have ticketed events too and i always finish just before noon.
These jelly spend-a-thons are getting out of hand. Now they shut down the game before itās concluded. What about the people that were waiting for last minute pushes
don't worry, probably just means the event won't officially finish so no one gets anything
Think if it as sparing yourself getting a ship that is generally only useful for pve š
Iām good with that. Our #1 already had a jellyš
so if everyone gets a compensation chest, then that gives those who completed events an advantage
Unless that compensation chest finishes and awards for all the events,.not enough
Which it definitely wonāt
@thick crown Well, I definitely do not want their first born.
@abstract gate neither do I ...just all the event rewards but I'd take my choice of BP if offered, š¤Ŗš¤£
You shall get the BPs for the all new Kumari-A with the turd launching projectile skin.
Sooo true, smh
you better be giving away full Jelly pulls to all top 5 finishers in the Jelly event... This is total BS.!!!
I'd say chance of that ... 0.0001%
Top 5? Thatās BS. I was sitting on 1000s of rare mats to use in the last hour. There needs to be a better solution for compensation.
You are getting a gift chest and the events will be extended out until tomorrow per the announcement, so auction away at your earliest convenience ... when the servers come back online.
that looks like the curious george thing when he fixed the space ship
Where do I spend these Borg recruit tokens and war funds???
Which gives everyone a chance to spend to get more mats for a final push. I don't consider an extension a win.
@fading axle Itās just a Jellyfish, donāt worry about it
I think "SOON" is also trademarked.
Absolutely. It's not the end of the world, but it is annoying.
Annoying is in the tagline of this game š
After working in IT/Cyber for so long I understand. No matter what you do there will always be outages..
I finally got on this weekend about 2 a.m. thix morning gotta love it
wrong
In the last 30 minutes theyāve been able to bring two US servers back online... at this rate all servers will be back online by Wednesday morning
My adventure started Saturday, and now can't sign in again?
as also an IT worker its probably the company not a third party lol
and if you actually used redudant/elastic service which AWS provides you wouldn't have problems with lag
considering they chose to host it on AWS 
I personally donāt have any miners out as I set those out in the morning so that players with miners out are being massively rewarded if they are in deep space ...
Hmm, fowling up on Mining Monday. Isnāt that a Scopely past time? š
This does not "Impress Me"
Where do you see events bring extended? I dont see that

I read it wrong. So basically yes, if you were competing in an auction you are basically sol. Glad I wasn't.
They should reopen all events from yesterday, extend them by another day and allow people to finish
Should yes, but we know that ain't happening, so paltry chest and a sorry will have to suffice.
The fun part about this whole thing is that we get to sit in maintenance tomorrow morning as well. This game has become nothing but mining and maintenance.
āSpace FarmVilleā
No Game today?
i guess not
wrong
Are they seriously not going to offer vidar in the store during the mega cube event? Never knew theyād be so against getting money
mega turd event, that graphic eye sore on the galaxy map not been doing anything since it came out
Slacking yesterday eh.
and now points aren't reporting on events on server 13
5 minute delay on points reporting. wonder job, just wonderful
that's been typical though
it shouldn't be though. i know events just reset but in the scenario there is an event about to end, a lagged delay in recording/reporting points is unacceptable
Word upš
So frustrating when you complete the BP and it's still not enough to unlock the next level.
What happened to the plasma blast projectile?
Server 41 was up for a sec., then crashed again. We're about to miss a TC takeover because of this shit.
Of course, the crash also meant missing the last hour or so of the Rogue items in the Event Store.
I was waiting to see what I'd need. Now I'm sol for a month!
Whatās the deal with Borg war funds and recruit tokens? Still no option to spend them
There a borg event coming tomorrow.
We have borg events but ??? For what you are supposed to do
Is it normal to have to guess?
read the text
Kill a faction scout and open the chest with message ^^
Faction Scout? For borg or any scout ship?
Scopely, what about this? Is it just "Sorry, wait until next month"?
So once you complete killing the scout the next one you have to attack borg?
Do you have to have the VIāDar
You can do them out of order
Yes, you need the vidar to have borg transwrap cell needed to go in the probes systems
I was busy all day yesterday and planned on finishing up the events this morning... and was unable to get very far š¦
Is there somewhere you can go to either get transwarp cells to get to the borg probes without a ViDar or are there borg probes somewhere that donāt require a transwarp cell to get too? Nothing in the event says you need a ViDar to do it...I donāt have one btw...lol
You could get cells without a vidar but it would be fairly pointless as any other ship sans highly tiered g3 epics and g4s would quickly be blown up by borg probes.
I have 6 or 7 (no vidar) but I honestly canāt remember where I got them
Probably some event
Iām not going to waste them to get my ship blown up though
You need a vidar to hit the borg probes, unless you have a g4 ship...
U can use saladin to hit and survive from a lvl25 borg probes
a maxed sally though to have it mean anything... not helpful to just hit 1
L25 are 1.4m, L26 are 2.6m. Yes it's possible to hit them with regular ships, but again what would be the point? You can't refine inert probes without a vidar, the refinery doesn't even appear until you've built it
oh right, and one of the borg events today needs you to refine a bit
So, basically another event to disadvantage players that donāt meet the unlisted requirements...lol
I wouldāve thought the borg refinery mightāve been active for this event, for those without a vidar, as is says not active no special events currently running. Isnāt that what this event is?
Can you even enter a borg system without a vidar? I mean owning the ship. How would you get the warp tokens?
Right now I just want an event to spent g3 that is actually useful. Have all the materials to fully upgrade my Sally and no event to spend them on. Last event was for an avatar which is a waste of effort.
You can get into the systems and hit the probes, but you canāt refine until you have a vidar either.
Anyone know when that compensation chest is suppose to come out. Many of my alliance still havenāt gotten it
Any news about the Borg Officer Recruit tokens?
That was an awesome maintenance chest today. Thanks!
Chest just appeard for me
now we want an emergency maintenance š
hi all, new player, sorry for the dumb question. I purchased the elite battle pass. I have 3 tiers remaining and only have 60/90 bp's for Franklin. Is that correct? I was under the impression the elite pack would get me all the bp's needed by the end.
When is the event for plasma blast suppose to come up it was supposed to be the 18th and 19th?
30bps in the last tier
it was pushed back for undisclosed reasons
unknown
Coming soon ā¢ļø right
jeez. I see it now. I was only looking at the command badge icon. Thanks!
š
lol... thats poor, who tried it? lots of mistakes
Your mom
You didnāt need the elite either. The Franklin bps are in the free part.
There's still ten days (9 scoring events?) left, and the final 30 BPs are in the last milestone
Dmn maintenance. Was finishing off ticket event before bed. Will now miss out on rss...
In reference to the Franklin bps in the Battle pass; I got shorted 30 bps after completing the last milestone.
I really wish there weren't franklin Bps in the battle pass - they probably reduced the useful stuff in BP to account for the 'value' of a franklin, which will now be the 2nd one i've got sitting at lvl1 because i won't pay £45 for a second set of warp coils.
will be my 4th lvl 1
Does anyone knows the regularity if the military supremacy event? How offer or when does it pops up?
during CoW
Server maintenance is over now and guess what.... points are not counting for killing hostiles. Fiqures
15 to 20 min lag like there always is after maintenance
Yup
I am sure someone from Scopely will read that and think "what a level headed and reasonable response, let me find this players account and gift him something for his constructive feedback". If you cant do the event then move on man, it's not your time.
Not everyone at your ops is at the same stage. They gave it to your ops because some can. You would rather they exclude everyone at your ops just because you can't do it? Nice.
woah you dont have your g5 borg cube? That sucks. maybe you need to be level 27
I am no troll, just trying to get you to think man, people progress at different rates. Re-read my last post and then come back to me and explain why you not being able to do an event means that they should prevent everyone at your ops from doing it.
@lucid nacelle watch your language please
where is the info about the mega cube?
it will appear in the in game news when the event goes live
kind of late ^^
this has always been the way, level playing field
I dont remember the math for borg armadas, what are the key success factors? Crew, vicar level, armada levels?
maxing damage output was important at the time as they borg killed you fast
but that was when people had tier 4 ships
yeah it will be interesting now a lot of players have maxed their vidars, last year we used 2 ents or jelies to tank and the rest vidars, took a good few runs to kill them
PMG and the borgie who reduces crits
Pike, moreau, g?
Gaila
Yeah in theory negating crit damage is more valuable than reducing crit chance
lower their crit chance to 0 and they'll do normal hits instead, reduce crit damage to 0 and you're reducing their average damage further..
Ty
it's a good way for lower strength ships to get starred for armadas
Or have your weakest ship run with 9of10 as capt with full synergy
8of10 as capt with full synergy will also work
@nocturne night you will get two of the transwarps for borg daily, in your gift tab to a limit of 8. 9 if you have 7 saved up when it refreshes
Their crit damage is 300% though, so have fun reducing that... 9/10 synergy should blatt out their crit chances though?
a maxed galila takes away the crits
I seem to have lost my solo milestone event, anyone else? Or just a case of restarting game?
Where be tickets
just u and idk
They were in the solo milestone event... which I saw while it was counting down, and has since poofed
restart ur phone idk
should be here, but they are not up )
Sure glad they fixed the lag
And itās standard scopley lag and unplayable event launch ššš
yea i dont see them
1 ticketed event yet no tickets given! Is that on purpose?
stupid event
Live target _reactive is missing
ticket chests always come out slowly to reduce server strain
Team is looking into it
i messaged Dragonxflare he said he will send to team
once you spend your 200 borg recruit tokens that it you cannot really make any headway into the big milestones as you have no way to progress
So maintenance worked then š§
guess so XD
i havent had any troubles
So why not just upgrade their servers. Itās not like they are hard up for cash lol
Hope when event tickets finally are there, the refresh wont be 24h again, leading to next event tickets being late too...
Are we missing a sms event
Since event launch it is just lagging, I have server milestone but no slb
and dont have enough credits or active nano probes to promote any borg officer
There was on on the timer to start but it doesn't show now
Major lag and events are missing
Swear I saw tickets in an event that then disappeared
Difficult to do ticketed events without tickets
The team is looking into it
Sweet! Itās not just us they forgot to give tickets too šššš
The team is looking into it to the missing borg event
How to get borg tokens??
9of10 twice in store, aaaaand 7of10 missing. nice.
eBay!
The description of this event is very deceptive.
Description state spend faction credits for progression, so I dropped 6000 Rom credits on Augur, NO REWARD.
Only upgrading officers using XP yields any progression.
Where are tickets?
Did BORG already win? So thatās why it looks like this when we click something?
lol, it's clearly talking about spending on officers
time to break out the š© lads!
It doesn't say that though,
no free tickets?
Yes it does in description
yeah, happened to me on an event similar a couple of arcs back, apparently only faction credits used to promote officers counts in the promote/level officer section
'LEVEL UP AND PROMOTE THE CREW'. you blind or something?
I'm with Jay on this one
Game companies should NEVER imply
i guess they can't account for youtubers with fewer brain cells than subscribers
Whereās the scopley āweāre sorry (not sorry) announcement againā? Lol
Same...dropped 1500 Kling credits without registering toward event.
The Events will be fixed soon
"Level up and Promote your officers" - what part of that is confusing?
ticket event justppopped up "live target practice"
[11:16 AM] Dragonxflare: Should be fixed in 10 minutes.
found free ticket, have to kill borgs
why there are two different unlock chests for 9 of 10 in store, one costs the double of other ???
was probably supposed to be 7/10
so is it a visual glitch, will any of u take the risk ?
probably not just visual
you have 8 days just wait
Quality Assurance strikes again
giving you a discount? š
Ummmmmmm???
must be her twin
Like they scammed us on ticketed events where cry was less in quantity
Different cost too lol
And of course the ticketed event is gated again.....because we loved it that way so much last time š
Anyone else not getting points for their tactical probes?
Do I get it right?
Without Vidar you can't participate in an event which offers Vidar blueprints as a prize?
Itās quite disappointing Scopely still doenst seem to have any form of quality assurance.
The amount of fails today is a new low
I don't have a vidar and trying to get it through this event but yeah i don't have transwarp tokens and no vidar
Am I interpreting the events correctly, that there will not be a tier up the vidar event? In which case I can safely do the tier up now, without missing future event rewards?
Got the same problem
Where are the tickets event?
Grrrrrrr, can't complete borg event. Need vidar to do so, can't get vidar unless I earn points from the event (I'm 5 prints short)
STORE
This escalated quickly...milestone 3 = 2,225...milestone 4 = 30.5K, did someone add an extra zero and just get through any sort of QC
Why only 1 ticketed event?
scopely wants you to kill borg probes for 12h/day š
event store has 2 options for 9 of 10, 1 costs 1500 and one costs 2000.... shouldnt the 2nd onde be 2 of 10?
Ikr I thought it was an error and they hit the 4 twice with a twitching finger. Lmao
7 of ten
They are getting mighty greedy
How does tier 3 to 4 take such a jump
hard but not unachieveable
the event is more focused on the players that have maxed or near maxed vidars
Are the tickets for today's event being phased in at different times?
Event tickets are awarded for completing milestone 4 of the daily SMS.
more achievable if it actually counts correctly
Massive jump from 3-4 @coral sphinx
Sarco bps missing from Event Store ..presume ā as intendedāš
sarco is exclusive apex reward
pretty do-able milestone, look it took u 40 mins to reach 1/5 of total milestone
No ticket today?
Am I interpreting the events correctly, that there will not be a tier up the vidar event? In which case I can safely do the tier up now, without missing future event rewards?
should be doable with 2 runs as you only get 2 warp cores to get there per day
not everyone has 8 stacked
Glitches and delays... erros in descriptions and pontuation
you cant use this anymore that person quit 
These event...LOL
Live target go online after a lot of ppl done with probes also battlepass event.very annoyng. Now i need to wait 12 hours for finish it
Mine reads as what the visual represents
@quick socket GOOD LUCK LOL
A 3 day SLB, rewarding 12k Borg war funds which will buy you a whopping...........2 SHARDS for an epic officer in the event store. HAHAHAHAHAHA
Well seems without a Vidar you cannot take part at a global event - well done
<@&509691205798592532> <@&509691611903426561> <@&509690795536941056> So after not being able to complete the arrival missions due to not having a Vidar (I am lvl 27 f2p). I can now buy the Vidar in the event store, but I cannot earn more war funds by completing the Live Target Practice event, because..... I DON'T HAVE A VIDAR!! How does this make any logical sense....?
completed the event
killed many; counted 4...
vidarbps in every event store for the last 6 motnhs and in cosmic cleanup saturday
If your ships are somewhat appropriate for your level, it'll be a challenge but it should still be possible to score
you don't get warp cells to visit Borg systems if you don't have a Vidar?
seems fixed, milestone reduced from 30k to 11k
Exactly!!
u can buy it in store
I have bought every blueprint that I possibly can. They were not available in my event stores for the last 6 months due to being lvl capped. I got 50 in the TOS event store and have had them in 2 cosmic cleanups. I have not missed any opportunities to get them and am still 30bps short.
Typo on the 'Return of the MegaCube - LiveTarget Practice - SMS' I assume? it goes... 65.... 195.... 325.... 4450!!!!
Mine is still 30.5k, even after reloading
<@&509690795536941056> We need active nanoprobes... Where are the packs?
it will update after sometime, there are above 200 servers so it takes time
so the warfunds needed to get the last 30 are only 22,800..... you should have earned some in the last 2 days right?
reminder not everyone has been playing for the past 6 months/ not everyone has a maxed vidar
Huge jump between 3rd and 4th milestone
but i see your point. but keep scratchng. you're very very very close.
Honestly the worst, most ill thought out series of events yet.
I earnt 4500 over the last 2 days, due to not being able to complete arrival 2/3... Due to not having a Vidar.... š¤Ø
intended
has been escalated
dangit. yup you're right.
escalation completed. intended
I also cannot complete today's SMS to earn more because.... I cannot get the vidar!
It's intended that I have to kill 898 borg today to finish the event...
What is with the massive jump in point for the last level? From 2k to 30k Wtf?
Its just so backwards....offering something that I cannot buy without the thing itself....
It would be nice if you could start the events at the same time š”
you could buy warfunds...
Err, the devs may say it's balanced around 1-2 trips but really it isn't. I'm Ops 30, my Vidar is Tier 4 and at a push I can kill a handful of Level 28 Borg before I die.
To get the top milestone in the event I'd need to kill 131 level 28 Borg Probes - not really balanced around 1-2 trips is it?
Oh, or 342 level 27 Probes
For all those who have not participated in the earlier borg arcs & unlocked the vidar, u now have an option to do so
i'm not sure what they think the vidar is supposed to be per ops level. but at ops 30, i'd imagine it shoudl be higher than t4. but i'm not sure what the "grid" is
what crew are you using? PMT or 5 /7 / Tlann or 8
I'm about to finish a full trip with my tier 6 vidar and at 4,284 points out of the 30.5k
Oh @nova valley - and the daily ticket event tokens is the reward for the top tier SMS
so I'm gated out of doing that too
š¤·āāļø
There is no balance with this especially since each trip costs you a token, and you canāt finish the event in one trip so now if you only have a couple tokens there is zero hope of you finishing the event.. great balancing job.. go smoke another!
revruit & assimilate scoring is broken, its not giving 4 points per exp spent on borg officers
lol borg shouldnt be easy to kill, develop the vidar
Same here. So i have events that need the vidar first before I can earn the remaining vidar blueprints. No way to play.
So @nova valley the long and short of it is... I'm being punished for being a f2p player once again.....
I am a very loyal player, I play for many hours each day and have completed EVERY event to full for the last 7/8 months! Included the BP overflow events.... And now I'm being forced into not being able to even ATTEMPT events due to not having a Vidar!
So basically pay money or shut up....
I might have missed it, but where did the borg events go?
dont worry scoring in live target practice is broken, killed 30 and counts 4... oh well
if you done all events for last 7 months then like me you oculd have had a vidar from plenty of event stores
what ops level are you? if you have been playing 7/8month you should have had a vidar by now surely?
I can get 6k points per round in Borg space hitting lvl31s. I need 70k for tier 4. How am I to complete this. Can only store max 9 Borg travel tokens. Have vidar at 900k
Not when I have leveled quickly.... Vidar bps were not available at lower levels as they were lvl capped above my level
Lvl 27
i'm sorry you feel that way. but the vidar is a f2p ship and has been for about the 8-9 months you've been playing.
i started 7 months ago, i got a vidar ages ago
currently t8
yeah i started a second ac and in 4 months it was ops 30
Hmm, those that have the ship have let it gather dust.š
Had 74 jelly bps before event, bought one bp to complete, i now have 74 jelly bps.
Scopely math logic.
Bought 3 5/10 shards, got about 5 in chest pulls, had 104 shards and now have 108.
Scopley maths people...
vidar out of all the event ships is one of the most useful
As long as you have one..
Vidar is a key ship longterm, the faction credits alone from the refinery make it worth it
working to max it, so i can start using it for Epic ship BP from the faction credits
its also the go to ship for looking for oc miners with - that big cargo bay
true, good power, great speed and good cargo
As I said before, I have bought every blueprint that has been offered to me.
The blueprints have not been available to me for the whole time due to my level being too low...
that's very possible.
that means youll get to enjoy it nexct time round, when the last borg arc came i wasnt even playing so missed it all
you didnt miss much it was an epic flop
What is most annoying is that now the bps are available... I cannot even attempt to earn them because I don't have the very thing that I need in order to earn them....
and im may be the only one upset the event store doesnt have borg frames š there is a specific one i want, dont care about the avatars haha
agree to the EPIC disagree with the FLOP
there in every event store and also apex event store so youll get one soon enough
L28, dont have the vi'dar and no way to get the bps because I dont have the vi'dar to do the missions to get the rewards to by the bps.
it was a flop, hardly anyone could do the megacubes and the rewards were pretty poor for the regular borgmadas
I realise that, and am very patient as a f2p player, I realise that I have to wait longer to get stuff.
But then I am given events to complete that are impossible to do because of it... That doesn't make sense...
remember we are talking about the Borg, one of the most insanely overpowered enemy in anything created lol. They should not be easy for low levels anyway, if keeping some lore to the game
im a mid lvl player btw
This "balanced" final milestone requires supposedly 2 trips killing 50 borg hostiles???? I am a level 33 with a 510k Vidar - It will require me to burn all 8 of my warp tokens to complete this event - NO THANK YOU!!!!
Im lvl 33 with a 800k vidar, did it all in one trip. Dont neglect the Vidar
I instead focussed on upping my other ships
<@&509691205798592532> basically you are showing all the players that haven't done the Borg grind constantly a big finger š©
defo do the Vidar, at our lvl the borg refinery can give faciton credits to buy Epic ship blue prints
We're volunteer chat mods my friend
or promote officers
I focussed on maxing my Saladin, now I'm working on upping my Vidar
Same here. I don't have the uncommon resources to do all the ships at the same time
John... I can't even get to a Borg probe system, as I have no transwarp cells, because I don't have a Vidar. So = impossible to complete...
yea im one step ahead of you then, thats exactly what i did
saladin is a beasat
Exactly - the Saladin always takes priority over the Vidar
Ah, I see.. š
Your vidar from t6 can kill 33s, so....just saying.
My Vidar is T4 and I need to kill 50 level 31 probes. Let's see how many trips it will take
my vidar might have been decently equipped for this event if i'd focused more on research for ships.
Get ur pike out
sould be 3-4
using PMC
I would be happy to try and complete with my other ships if I was given the required cells, at least I would be able to try the event/complete some of it.... At the moment it is completely blocked for me. š
Yup, my Vidar is Tier 4 (only had it 2 weeks and have done the borg daily refine every day since then) and have essentially been told 'get a stronger Vidar'.
Even if I wanted to spend the UC Crystal at the moment I'm physically restricted by the number of nanoprobes.
So not only can that event not be completed for me, but the one you unlock with the daily even tokens from the top milestone is also gated.
I don't want to shoot the messenger, but when you are posting a message people will assume that you agree with/believe in it. Hence the love š©
well, pull that credit card out lol
i did actually spend money to get mine, then 2 weeks later saw it for free in an event store š
As I said earlier.... Pay money or shut up, same message as always! š
yup no surprise there š© scopley all over
Wallet warriors unite š
It's all good. I know no poops are directed at me.
Unless they're from other mods.
Or CCs.
Or Devs.
But players not.
Mostly. š¤
@pseudo rover curious as to what scopley considers lvl appropriate borgs. Unlike franklin which progress is lvl locked and you can kinda base it on your dailies. Vidar is kinda a choose you progress ship and would like to know where Scopley thinks a Vidar should be at any given lvl. Wonder if you could ask, as it would help people
I've found that 7, 8, 9 while great for nanprobe grind, doesn't hit large borg very well. You could try running PMT/PMC on larger borg probes to see if you can at least kill enough in one trip to finish faster. Likely won't out on nanoprobes. But for me I prefer the small number of kills hitting 33s and having enough to refine in 1 run, maybe get 2 refines in 2-3 runs, vs the time it takes to grind 29s to max cargo and do 2 refines
thats the beauty u could max it out at level 30 or 39+ its your choice (time & grind)
Thanks! I'm going to try PMT - fingers crossed -- had huge success with PMT and swarms.
I use 5/7/9 of 10, but vidar needs to be around 850k before that works, otherwise PMT i find is best
I grinded mine hard until i could get max hulls than stopped. At that point it didnt seem worth wasting the rares on
I need to understand..
I don't have Vidar.
To buy it I need the Borg money.
To get Borg money I need to kill Borg probes with Vidar...
I aint got no vidar yet. I can't get event tickets and I can't complete the Return of the mega cube events. I'm playing for 4 months now and have 85 vidar shards. My progression is being punished because I choose to buy fraklin's bps over vidar's first on the cosmic clean up. And now there are fraklin bps in the battle pass š¤”
Been awhile since I changed up crew, might have to try 5/7/9 on the Vidar. That said I can't argue with 140k probe run with research that PMT is pulling on 33s, but if I can max out cargo, even better
Nope its Scopley, you need real moneyyyyyyyyyyyyy
7/8/9 works great if you dont have 5. You just have to check battelogs and see if the you are killing the probe in 1 rnd when 7 activates. Then you know you are hitting the best probe for your tier
My vidar is terribile against lvl 31's, needs more power. but using 5/7/9 of 10 agianst lvl 30's i fill my cargo quite quickly of 218k
The rule of thumb is tier 7 with the topnright weapon upgraded and you can full hull 29s with 7,8,9
Thanks Cpt Bedlow
Pmt on 25s 789 on 29s once 7 is tiered as well. Pmc on 31-33s still works best for me but just tiered Vidar to 41 so will retest 789 or 579 when maxed.
@nova valley @pseudo rover so now just realised that I cannot do the ticketed event either, because the tickets are blocked behind an event that is IMPOSSIBLE for me to access..... Can I at least just have 10 tickets given to me, because this is beyond a joke....
recommending this now
Of course... transfer 21ā¬99 to scopely..
Thank you! š
Thank you - you've restored my hope in this event. PMT works great
I'm on the same boat as Sparhan š
No ticket today???
in SMS in the borg tab.
nine of ten looks different today š¤£
Ticket event dont work correctly, no points for use faction creds š
Wonderful to hear!! I had read ages ago about a pre-Tier 7 Vidar could do 29s with PMT, so I tested and it worked well enough that I was happy to leave the long grind of 26s behind. Then once I did hit T7 (now 8) I decided to try PMC and PMT across the larger ones. Found I could get enough nanoprobes in 1-2 runs intially to easily do 1 refine in a fraction of the time. For me the time saved was worth it vs the lost nanprobe potential
so with the 6k borg war fund awarded today, I can exchange for a single 5/10 shard. Nice š
I think it'z clear the event should have been tier based rather than level based.
I do have a maxed Vidar, but when I do daily runs through borg (usually 2 runs a day), I use 5/7/9 of 10. Today, I was able to finish the SMS event in two runs through corta gamma (33) space using P/M/T and still almost maxed my cargo hold. I'm not seeing the big issue with people that say the last milestone is way too far out to reach. It's not. It's going to take time to grind and maybe that's an issue, but the biggest issue I had was so many people in the borg 33 space
I just realized the same thing with level 32s. I was grinding 27's and am getting the same result. When doing swarms I wasn't having as much success with PMC vs PMT. Its probably because I have a lower tier of one of them.
dont think all events should be completable by alkl players regardless of there current situation. Its a game and based on you choices come results. If you ignored the vidar, then this iss not your event. like in a daily xp slb, if no exp then you dont enter this time
I'm Ops 35, T8 Vidar and I actually did it in one run before I even knew the last MS was a large jump. I feel I've slacked on my Vidar by choosing time over quantity of nanoprobes too
Should note I use PMT as my T'laan is maxed and seems to work better on Borg, Chen might work better if she was maxed, but I can't test that
like the stella event, if you used all your directives, cant complain when they start an event needing them
I just looked at the event and saw my number (79K) and went to kill level 33 Borgs. I didn't even notice the big gap between MS3 and MS4 until I read about it on here.
Tlaan has always worked better for me, the borg probes Kinetic is massive damage output
did the SMS in one run without noticing, im only lvl 33
This is true. When we knew according to the calendar that there was an apex outlaw event, we told our alliance to hold tight to the exchange armada directives for that event and not waste them before hand
Agreed. I tried Chen (accidentally) and it wasn't that great of an outing. T'Laan for sure with P/M if not 5/7/9 of 10
Kept reminding my fellow alliance mates to save some back just in case, but thankfully we have more than enough players that we had eclipse armadas running very often both days that I don't think anyone failed to finish
Yea i used PMT untill 5/7/9 become viable, which for me was at 850k power, based onresearch and so on
yea and key for me is this is a game, you wont be able to everything every time. i missed load of Borg stuff when i first started playing, but knew more would come and have built a Vidar ready for it, now this time i can compete
Does anyone know if the Stella is available on Level 27 in the Eventshop?
got the stella skin as well š even though i have the smallest stella in my alliance lol
Very true. Its all about making the choice for you. I don't do a lot of the daily leaderboard events (if any) but I will try to do all the milestone daily events I can. Same with the ticketed events. I know what I have to do for hostile dailies so I held out on that hostile hunting event until this morning before event reset and got it with a handful of Sol trader kills... It's a game, there are trade offs. If its so easy for everyone, where's the fun
Hey guys, I read this in the official announcement:
If you have Doomsday Armada Directives, we encourage you to spend those on the rares or higher to get the salvage, and redeem your chests. We will be sourcing refit tokens in the future in different ways.
And most of my alliance has between 40-49 doomsday directives so we canāt even run 1 rare to ācleanā out our doomsday directives (cost 50)...
Maybe would be helpful if we can buy up to 20 doomsday directives with Borg War Effort so we can ācleanā out something at least? Getting bit tired of unused currency
I haven't bothered with any skins unless it was coincidental to something else. I know in my bracket (I'm ops 41) that there are small whales and large dolphins that will easily out spend anything I might try to do.
oh yes 𤣠being a lower lvl helps so much in the SLB's lol im lvl 33 still saving for an Epic
The climb of points from 3rd ms to 4th is just utter bullshit, based on level i have a tier 4 vidar and no way it gets done on 2 trips ive done 4 trips and i have 23k left to do
Man I wanted that thing, but the competition was too stiff in my bracket for the time I have available. Heck it was outlaw event that saw me get the Vidar in that win Vidar BP for spending rss. I pushed so hard that when Stella was announced the enxt month, i was in perfect positiong to push OPs 27 to get it
Stella might be Ops 28, it's the odd ball on ships in becoming available in event shops after the ops level necessary to build instead of the ops level before like the faction ships.
Thanks - other times it is available 1 Level lower. Strange.
Ffs itās impossible to type anything here without being buried after seconds
Then just donāt worry, save them
No the Salvge for the recruits is going. Not the directives to start the armadas
Exactly so if he canāt do the rare armadas then donāt worry about it.

-
Directives wont be used anymore
-
If you purchased them to kill the armadas to get salvage tokens, that wont do anything after april.
-
If you cant kill anything but you still have been holding on to them until they can be killed,
-
You wasted real money on in game currency that became obsolete
Any idea when uss terror skin will be available again?
<@&509690795536941056> hey scopley what about the ship skin shard trackers? Some of us have those and how are we going to use them???
Which is against from what i've read apples app store policy
in game currencys cannot become unusable if there is a cost ** ever**
<@&509690795536941056> once again this two tiered ticket system is messed up. I already promoted two borg officers prior to earning and applying the ticket. Thx for that.
Where did you earn the tickets?
The Live Practice event
Is scopely out of their minds??
Oofff. . .this target practise sms event is rough. , .78k points needed for me. . .i usually hunt lvl29 probes. . .so i need to kill 876. Whaattttt. š”
4450 for a lvl 29 player lol they put an extra 0 in it
Live practice 3rd lvl 870pts 4th lvl 11650pts
Live target practice event is not achievable. It goes from 325 to 4450 points
Will tickets be given out in chests?
I recently went to lvl 30, I don't have a Vidar ship so i basically can't probes, and since i can't kill probes i can't get the tickets for the event. So thanks scopely for this great (sarcasm, i mean poor) design choice.
26 or 27s i can kill so it will take more then 24hrs to even get the ticket
And yet, all the events are based on vidar ship, so i basically watch the event going on, while i can't do anything to play with it.
Please allow level 26/27 without a viādar to do the lower level milestone event
Pls allow EVERYONE who doesn't have vidar to finish those events anyway
why are the systems locked anyways?
coz only with vi'dar u can access them
Canāt even get event tickets... so canāt get war effort points... so canāt get server ms
Cāmon!!
so in regards to your announcement @pseudo rover it is completely fine to "base a MS event upon OPS level" where you need a speciality ship you might not have on the level of your OPS?
it is completely fine for my OPS39 account with a T7 vidar - according to your announcement - expect to be able to complete the 79k within 2 trips to the borg space "appropriate for my level"?
sure... let's try
why are you ops 39 and only have a t7 vidar may be a more appropriate question?
If you're in this bucket, your Vi'dar should easily kill higher probes. What's your Vi'dar at?
this is just like the complaints around the og franklin. "this isn't fair i don't have a maxed franklin" but why not? you had plenty of time. and it was free. just had to grind it.
it isn't fair because it should be based upon the level of the ship - the same way the refinery is based upon the level of the ship
@nova valley and those of us without a viādar at 26+? Iāve acquired the BPs at all opportunities given to me
and how I spend my crystal is completely my choice - not yours DJz
What about the resources needed for research, general use ship, building and so on?
Not everyone has pumped the Vidar
ops 26-28 are DEFINITELY an exception to my statement, and i've already escalated it as such. you're in a terrible spot at a terrible time. JUST like the ops 35-36 was with the franklin-A. my statement is not blanket. but if you're ops 39 and don't have a maxed vdar, shame on you lol
We all make choices
you got it. CHOICE. you made yours. now live with it.
I'm ops 38 tier 8 vidar it's rough but I can get it done so what if it costs me a bit more I'll live
Now I will say I think they should have made the vidar a full bp purchasable last event store if they were going to be doing this
rather than half
Even a t8 Vidar you should be running pike Moreau Chen and hit the 33s
I can hear people say "a milestone should be grindable" in many youtube videos... weird... by your own words this means the developers need to put out a build-path for the game everyone needs to follow in order for them to not mess up requirements.
2 runs and you should have it done
I did on my 2nd run but since it isn't the most optimal for probes I don't usually go there
if you have maxed vidar which is the assumption and is wrong
No this guy above has t8 hit 33s and 2 runs
Pike Moreau Chen.
Yes if you have a lower tier itās gonna take more
But heck even if you have to do it in 3 runs itās still not many.
Go try a run with pike Moreau Chen in 33s
nope it's not horrible thankfully
And see how many more points you get if you have a t7 or higher
ummm. no. milestones are not "PAYWALLED" there's a diff. as a matter of fact, i've often stated that not all events are meant to be completed by all players. it's dependent on your capabilities. even today, MS1-3 are easy peasy, but 4 is gonna be hard. work for it, or don't get it.
however, i DO agree that the free tickets for the ticketed event SHOULD NOT be in this milestone, and further, agree that ops 26-28 shoudl have an option for the sub 26 events in the case they have no vidar. it's a bad bracket. if you're 29+ and have no vidar, that's COMPLETELY on you.
You donāt need a maxed Vidar to do it.
that assumption isn't wrong if you're in the mid to upper 30's. not wrong at all. now, you're ops 29? totally diff story. but your milestones would also be smaller too
It is wrong only in the sense that there was never e need for a maxed vidar before now
Before borg probes were a choice that got you credits, rep, about it
A maxed Vidar helps, but you still donāt need a maxed Vidar to finish this
getting increased faction credits and independent credits
Now having it and having it (near) maxed are required. That's the problem
What ops are you?
I don't know what you need per say, mines in tier 8 so the event is doable in 2 runs
Even t7 can do it
But one of our lvl 30s took 5 runs to finish this
So he won't be able to finish it tomorrow
My t7 Vidar could do it in 2 runs. On lvl 33 probes.
what level is his vidar?
Don't know, but that's the point. The vidar was never required before
Well with those probes he has gotten so refine and upgrade his Vidar gun.
Like All the high ups who were left scrambling to finish anfranklin they never needed to
Oh I know - I'm just asking because I'm Ops30 and recently acquired a Vidar myself š¦
Well it was during the first runs of the Borg arc
Really? Need to log in at starts of the event to get all the rewards? What a š©š©š©
if it's taking you that many, you're crewing wrong or trying to kill the wrong level probes
7 captain with full synergy, kill lvl 29's
No you donāt, itās actually written wrong you WILL get the rewards
Are you sure? Because the description says ābefore completionā
@nova valley I think that needs adjusting in the game text
Yes, because the same was for me šš¼
Thanks for fast answer, they should change the description šš»
Yea they should
Itās written poorly. For all of these, you have to score only before the end of the event to get the milestone rewards.
Yes I got it now. Thx for help
This continues the trend of poorly designed event started by the idiotic one where you've had to suicide your ship to score.
I think they have a contest back at the Scopely HQ about who designs the stupidest event.
Is there anyone who works at Scopely in here to see the feedback from all the users? Or is it just passed on via CCs and mods
There are Scopely employees here as well
My grandmother had a standard question for the people who behaved like the Scopely event designers.
Do you have any siblings?
And if the answer was affirmative the next question was the following.
Are they as dumb as you?
Then just wait till a bit later once people finish their milestones they will leave
Sure...let's all just sit around with our thumbs up our asses.
Hey. Iām a tiddler - t6 vidar. . . And yes yes yes - before @nova valley blasts me. . .yes its my own fault for not working on it . . BUT I am all about grinding for things. . .hey - if i have to go hit 800 lvl29 probes and waste reapir speed ups i will. . .BUUTTTT the borg systems are token limited. . .so i canāt go and grind grind grind. Scopley say they want us to spend less time in the game but then penalise those of us who are lopsided in vidar tier vs ops level.
No, go do something else
What crew are you using? With a t6 you should be able to hit higher probes and gain more points faster
Is running borg armadas with vidar like running eclipse armadas with stella? I have an 850k vidar and 3 mil jelly. Which is better?
Test it against borg probes perhaps
no blasting for you cause at least you take some responsibility for your situation!!!! LOL the folks "blaming" the game for their activity levels is what's aggravating. that said, VERY good point on the cells for today's event.
Well you can do that if you want or just go find something else to do while the system clears
What a poorly thought out comment. If all you are going to do is criticize, then I dare you to do better. If you have an idea on how to improve it say so. If you are just going to bitch then STFU.
Why is aggravating not wanting to spend 30 minutes to one hour per day grinding probes.
What is aggravating for me is the time needed in order to keep up with the game and the fact that the higher levels and ships are practically unavailable without paying.
But I see that no Scopely defender mentions the time needed by the game and the fact that you need to pay to advance past a certain threshold
I would suggest that you spend your time with a razor, but whatevs...troll.
dude, no insults thank you. no need for that negativity here
I am not a troll you are
I donāt think Iāve ever been below 6 tw cells
i can't really speak to that, cause i am a spender. but i'm not crazy. i probably spend 100-200 a month depending on what's available. and for about 6 months i spent 20 bucks on just battlepass. so i do a ton of grinding. i didn't spend on disco. didn't spend on franklin. didn't spend on franklin a. didn't spend on vidar. what i usually buy is battlepass, and probably a monthly pack. and occassionally, a ship pack lol so i grind plenty
I normally have 9 but I screwed myself over by neglecting my Vi'Dar and had to use 5 today but still have 4 left and I will get another 2 tomorrow so I can still finish the event
Grind or spend and donāt expect to get everything if you donāt do both.
I am appreciative of Scopley's attempt at variety. Some are hits, some are misses.
And great block, a total troll thing to do šš
Which event?
Triggered much?
Target Practice SMS
Iām not triggered, from your comments you are.
Tier and crew?
Any way coming to get access to the old borg arc missions?
@earnest hornet I generally dont block, but there are too many complainers and it drowns out the contributors. Ima thinking I need to block anyone who complains about 3 consecutive events. Then i can have a decent convo with the remaining 3.
ššš
What is wrong with the sms borg milestone 850 points to third milestone and to get forth milestone 11k points <@&509691205798592532>
Some of my alliance will be lucky if they do it
just remember there is a high chance that you have to do it again tomorrow
Were di I find rare or epic Doom armada need to use directiv before last of april
Worm system
Outside yellow is only uc
T7 but only just, it was sat in storage for almost 8 months š¤£
Try pmc on 31s-33s
With Pike Moreau Chen I can kill the 33s with my t5 Vidar
33s are easier like the 29s because of their firing pattern
And a 33 gives 1500 points per kill
Worm system
Thx
PMT works better
Not above 29s
PMC on 25,29, 33s pmt in the rest
Now the Vi'Dar is T7 Borg crew should work better than PMT and PMC
On 29s yes
Not on higher then 29s
I don't hit 29's
I completed the event with pmc on 33s with 3/4 hull
Until maxed. This event you want number of kills not probes.
@pseudo rover lol are you sure about the numbers .. or you didnāt really calculate??
3-4 hours to fill the cargo against 29's no thank you, hit 30's get around half cargo in 20mins
Weāre talking about this event not probes.
I did 4 runs at 30's and 1 run at 32's and I'm thinking I could have done it in 3 runs against the 32's
So my t5 Vidar with PMC killed 12x lvl 33 probes. =19,164 points. So thatās your prime spot to kill them.
33s firing pattern is like 29s, so 33s are easier to kill.
Never tried hitting a 33 š try those for tomorrow's event
25,29,33s Where you fire first. So you damage the probe first. The rest the probes fire on you first
You sure about that?
Well the 33s do fire a small energy shot first
Just had a look
Pmt is better on 33 for me than pmc š¤·
Yes ok as you said
Pretty sure it s only the 29
Must be only 29s šš been a while since Iāve looked. But the firing pattern of the 33s is better. The the 31/32s
Less damage from the 33s.
Same
so whats the consensus on the 33's regarding PMC/PMT/7/10?
Pmc
