Making the Tendi event PW by putting in an event that screws anyone that is Low mats due to upgrade, or low directive because armadas sick a d i c k to try to earn directives.

Yes, multiple times

[abstract gate]

I see it in the cloaking / refits tab

Check there

Well that’s your opinion, but about same milestone as every spend event every arc 🤷‍♂️ shouldn’t be a surprise

It's become pretty clear that if you don't wanna break out the wallet you cannot make any big expenditures on anything until scopely says its okay by dropping an event

So they add a lot of stuff people want, but make a tiny mistake while doing so. Thanks for your toxicity!

[tulip raptor]

Same milestone?!? Which event had that last time? I must have missed it

[tulip raptor]

Except this time they are using the spend event to lock players out of Tendi.

[willow shell]

Ops 39 no iss jelly bps in event store? @pseudo rune

[pastel topaz]

Seems like the ISS Jelly is gated to Ops 39, I don't see bps in the event store at Ops 38.

[abstract gate]

https://stfc.space/events/62642288c51065d905e72adb

[abstract gate]

I’ve found it in the cloaking tab, have you checked there?

[last iris]

The idiots at Scopeless apparently cant figure out that ISS Jelly Blueprints belong in the Ships and Blueprints sections. THey, in their own idiotic logic, put the blueprints for the ISS Jelly into the Cloaking and refits area.

[pastel topaz]

Yes.

[willow shell]

thanks

[amber prism]

Pretty sure it's the name calling part that's toxic

[tulip raptor]

So we should expect BS from scopely? Nice to know what they think of their customers

[amber prism]

Which you doubled down on with the moron comment

[gentle cobalt]

yap iss jf is in clocking tab 🤣

[last iris]

What, calling them Scopeless? Considering they can never seem to hit the simplest of targets. Sounds just like someone with a rifle that cant hit anything. Scopeless. Or you could say they can never see the scope of the errors they continually m,ake, and refues to lear from those errors. Either way, the truth hurts. Sorry that you cant handle it

[amber prism]

I'm all for calling people out for their mistakes because yes it's stupid af to put it in the cloaking tab

[tulip raptor]

The mariner event had no effect on any other event. The current one does. Anyone who pretends that it’s the same as previous events is a liar.

[abstract gate]

Just saying it’s a recurrent event and can thus be expected to occur again. It’s up to you if you think it’s worth it to save up for it

[pastel topaz]

The ISS Jelly bps should show up for the same people that have the ISS Jelly event rather than just Ops 39+.

[abstract gate]

Just stop feeding, some are beyond recovery

[noble oar]

You can point out problems while still staying polite....

[tulip raptor]

No, it’s not just a recruitment event, it’s an event linked to other dependent events unlike the typical recruitment events. As pointed out by others this effectively negates the idea that Tendi can be acquired FTP

[pastel topaz]

Pretty sure I'll be getting Tendi as a person that hasn't spent a penny...

[last iris]

What, polite after getting empty answers from CSRs and mods. Why bother?

[pastel topaz]

Then again, I'm not in the Ops 40+ where the economy is broken and has been broken for forever.

[amber prism]

She can be acquired F2P providing you do all the events that have may completion tokens

[tulip raptor]

But not everyone will be able to do that. Thus, not FTP

[amber prism]

Yes some of them will be hard as F2P like today's icarus event

[sullen veldt]

The points given would make it em near impossible for me to complete. Anyone else?

[tulip raptor]

Right and one of those events has a massive spend requirement

[abstract gate]

No no, you got this wrong. F2P means the ability without spending money. IT DOES NOT mean a freebie

[amber prism]

But all completable as f2p

[noble oar]

I tend to be all for pitchforks and torches but honestly I do think there are still other ways to phrase it as you're taking away from your language due to the poor form. I also prefer saving my outage for things that actually matter like when events have unrealistic milestones, scoring not working,....

[pastel topaz]

Here's a rule to always follow for everyone else that's f2p that helps massively:
Only spend mats during spend events!

[arctic nymph]

@pseudo rune Love you guys added more stuff, but would it be possible to have Franklin-A refit parts too 🙂

[amber prism]

If only I listened to my own advice for that hahahahha

[last iris]

I cant finish it, low on mats and directive because of recent events and upgrades. Not spending money, so screwed over, just like many F2P

[tulip raptor]

I didn’t say ‘freebie’. Please try to not be dishonest. I said that anyone can get. Yes it should take work, but huge uc/rare/epic spending walls are a real barrier to actual FTP play

[pastel topaz]

I'll say it again, only spending mats during spend events is what you absolutely need to do.

[sullen veldt]

Agreed but even the the point values for spending are garbage

[tulip raptor]

Sure, that’s great advice darklink. It doesn’t change the fact that uc spend walls exist.

[noble oar]

Yeah but these spend events seem to be coming faster than we can actually stockpile mats...

[amber prism]

It would be amazing if they told us how many points a building or research would give

[spare perch]

im ops 45, almost 46 f2p and usually manage to complete these, but agree that its a pain in the ass

[amber prism]

Make it so much easier for strategic spending

[pastel topaz]

stfc.space should have that

[amber prism]

Pretty sure it does but sometimes I'm too lazy to look outside of the game for something they should provide lol

[sullen veldt]

You only get points for the mats you spend or the directives

[pastel topaz]

Defense platforms give the most as well as often the first level of research and researches with only 1 level.

General rule of thumb for power gains.

[amber prism]

For the icarus event it's power as well

Power and exocomps

[tulip raptor]

They recently broke defense platform power points though…

[sullen veldt]

Yes apologies thought you were talking the other event

[spare perch]

Icarus event best done with exocomps

[amber prism]

Yeah another should have saved them thing 😞

Only have 1 , hopefully the utility pull will get me more tomorrow

Before reset

[tulip raptor]

Literally never spend anything if there isn’t an event on.

[spare perch]

yeah, and preferably only if you really really need it

[nova river]

Ikarus EBL is canceled?

[keen flint]

So for the icarus sms, I completed a defence platform and gain around 1mil power but only get 6k points for the event. Am I misunderstanding the description of the scoring for the event?

[molten cloak]

Changed last month. Wasn’t intended but who knows if it will be changed back

[sullen veldt]

I feel bad for you due to your event goals - but agree same boat

[molten cloak]

You can get the event points from stfc.space

[abstract gate]

yes, this game is becoming more and more a waiting game, you need to hoard resources till an event to spend them is running

[neat barn]

it used to be to hoard to place higher in SLBs, but seems to have migrated the need to SMSs

[abstract gate]

they greatly nerfed the points turrets gives a month ago

[abstract gate]

@abstract gate it's my biggest gripe about the game for sure

[gentle cobalt]

and where find next 11k uncommon in one week for next sms officer event with tendi token

[verbal sapphire]

Who that officer has no possible solution...

[odd lynx]

Coming up next on TLC, The season premiere of Star Trek Hoarders.

[noble oar]

yeah spend events themselves aren't bad....if they had way lower requirements...

[gentle cobalt]

I think i spend in last 40 days 140k uncommon and rare

[wild bison]

try being able to spend 500 UC 3* at ops 20 im about to break my screen. and i have been hoarding. and then theres another one at the end of the month

[gentle cobalt]

and buy only battle pass

i think 2 we have, one for tendi slb and one for disco officers

[neat fern]

Do we need to complete this to finish the Tendi sms?

[hardy geyser]

Why? Just activate exocomps. I completed todays iccarus event that way b/c not enough buildings available

[neat fern]

I’m hoping not and gonna take a chance

[abstract gate]

As it stands you’ll need every one of the May trophies including this spend event

[neat fern]

I guess I’ll miss out on the 120 tendi shards then

[abstract gate]

Sorry bud

[neat fern]

That’s ok, I’m spending money on my terms not scopeleys

[errant abyss]

how many Tendi Recruit-SMS points so far provided?

without any pack.

[amber prism]

4 before today I beleive

[cinder inlet]

I’m still not convinced we will get enough lower deck mission keys in time to complete the mission event which is also needed to complete the supposed F2P tendi shard event.

[gentle cobalt]

8 with today

[ornate geyser]

I'm at 8, have completed today's.

[amber prism]

I was spending them as I got them :(

[cinder inlet]

I’m currently at 4 and have not completed any tendi trophy event for today.

[gentle cobalt]

tos mission have own keys (when server finish tos event you will got 30 key for 2 set mission), arc mission are in bp

[errant abyss]

today

1. Icarus SMS - 1 pt
2. TNG SMS - 1 pt
3. Who's That Officer? - 2 pt (while it says 1 pt)

[amber prism]

Oh that would explain how I'm at 6 lol

I was thinking I should be 5

[crystal stream]

Who made the tendi recruit SMS leaderboard part of the recruit TNG crew -SMS? I just made 40 a week before the battlepass started. I need to earn 450k points. That is 30 rare armadas, or 9 epic armadas or 4,500 3/4* uncommon or 3000 rare 3/4* . I CANNOT EVEN REFINE 4* UNCOMMON MUCH LESS THE 4* RARE. How is ANYONE supposed to have that much resources? Yes, I could scrap a 26 ship if I had one ready, but that takes a week and this is over in 2 days.

This battlepass is quickly turning into the absolute WORST. If we don't complete this, we can't finish the tendi recuit and then we are out a full unlock.

You have turned this battlepass into a pay to play event. I am not sure if I even want to continue.

[gloomy thorn]

scopely has always been about the $$ they dont really care about us players. you should know that by now

its a pay to play game now.. either that or dont get the items you want..

[earnest jungle]

It's all pay to play since long... And also the addition in the event store.m are ridiculous! Who needs meridian refit 2 month in a row.... When the eclipse event has been skipped for 2 months and no sign of stella refit

[gentle cobalt]

hm if wto give 2 maybe we do not need finish officer sms

[abstract gate]

Disagree strongly.

This one being part of the completionist is pushing it, but aside from that things have become a lot more accessible over the last 12 months and Eco is a great addition, bringing a voice that has already influenced so much.

[gloomy thorn]

@abstract gate disagree all you want, but when i couldnt send out away missions cause of the game error and they admitted it was their fault they did not award me the event rewards, as i couldnt do the events.. they said if i didnt do the event i didnt get the rewards.. so tell me they care

it took over a month for them to fix my account. you know how may away missiion event they ran during the last arc they refuse to credit me with.

forgive me if i dont bow to them and praise them for the crappy coding they do

[abstract gate]

That’s bad; no escaping that and I’m sure that sucks big time - there will always be instances of them failing hard. Overall though I think they’re going the right direction…

[hasty holly]

Anyone else NOT seeing the ISS Jellyfish in the event store that they added.

[gloomy thorn]

@hasty holly its in the ships cloaking area..

the devs were smoking a bowl when they added them

[abstract gate]

It’s been fixed

[gloomy thorn]

ok ty

i will reboot then

[hasty holly]

Ahhh, i see. You have to be 39 for it to open up. That's not good. 36+ can get in the jelly event. You would think they would make it available for 36+ in event store. 😅

[abstract gate]

Don’t worry about wasting (yes I use that word knowing full well what it means) event loot on Jelly BPs at that extortionate rate.

People hung up on “needing” a Jelly at 39 but many (including me) went to 41 without it.

[hasty holly]

Thank you super much. Appreciate your help

[abstract gate]

I got to 41 with a T9 Sally and a T5 Augur and the hardest thing in my dailies was swarms 😆

[abstract gate]

Always 👍🏻

[empty stratus]

Im really not liking these cross server leaderboards

[abstract gate]

Are there ever premium recruit spend events?

[pseudo rune]

I posted about this a bit in Galaxy chat so I'm going to say something similar here so we're all on the same page

I've been collecting feedback on everything the community would like to see in the event store and forwarding it along. We know that everyone has different feelings on what's valuable or not, and we tried to include a variety of items you'd like to obtain.

We're always open to the potential of adding more items to the store, but our concern is the longer we wait to add items or the later we adjust it, we can potentially upset community members that would have spent their event currency on something we added later than what they originally spent it on

So after a bit of time, we are concerned to make further adjustments but I am collecting everything so that if we can't get them in this event store we can talk about adding them to future event stores

Hopefully that makes sense

[arctic nymph]

it do, thx for replay eco

[pseudo rune]

I believe this has been adjusted now, could you restart the app and check again?

This is a cool idea and something I'd be happy to ask about!

[deep steeple]

@pseudo rune I would of liked to have seen more officers eg borg tpring as there are no other ways to source her

[pseudo rune]

A few different community members have reached out about this, and I've been talking to the team about it. I understand that many of you would like to see the brackets set up differently than they are now and more than happy to discuss with the team to see how we might be able to make it better for the future.

[pseudo rune]

I've gotten that comment* a few times and I have it on my list =]

[sour swan]

@pseudo rune Hi, what is your take on a fresh ops 20 F2P player being asked to spend 50k on a mats spend even they don't have the resources to do it which means they will miss out on an officer

[pseudo rune]

I'm always happy to hear feedback on this, and as a new player myself (27) there is still a lot for me to learn*.

So hearing feedback like this is always more than welcome, thanks Tinman

[spare perch]

If anyone wants the answers
1 Kill 5 in Zamam
2 Mine one trit
3 Use one speed up
4 Kill 5 in NILKINO
5 Kill 5 in Orion
6 Kill 5 in Rua
7 Mine one trit
8 Kill 5 in Collep

[pseudo rune]

CHEATER

[inner cave]

How many points should we have by end of today should we have for tendi event

[abstract gate]

8

Pokémon event rewards 2 though it says 1

[rigid gorge]

Pokémon event?

The Who’s That Officer?

[rustic spear]

I see Feesha refit in store. Description is not clear. Its says it unlocks other ship parts in refinery. What is “other”. Anyone get it or has a ss?

[inner cave]

Thought I had missed one

[abstract gate]

Yeah that one

[rigid gorge]

Ok thanks. So I’ll have 8 upon completion instead of 7.

[noble oar]

Welcome to the game, just keep in mind that hoarding is the name. You'll run into weird bumps so a bunch of out of game resources are needed especially if you don't intend to dump a lot of cash into this.

[bronze hull]

It turns feesha parts into g4/g5 parts

[rigid gorge]

I hope that’s to make up for the mission error and they don’t change it. There are two mission chains with which to complete a trophy event, but the lower level one won’t be available until after the event is over.

[abstract gate]

Indeed. It's kinda crazy we gotta use out of game resource to check power gains for buildings and research

[abstract gate]

If it is indeed impossible to complete they would Def gift us a trophy

[abstract gate]

Says who?

On average we get more than one milestone a day

[rigid gorge]

It’s pretty far out though! So I was inferring based on previous bps

[static wigeon]

Did you steal @naive meteor s account?! 👀

[abstract gate]

You will get the keys in time to finish the missions event

It will be tight but it will be possible

[rigid gorge]

Hope so! At least it’s milestone 16 and not 18. Just logged back in quick to check.

That looks more reachable

[abstract gate]

Don’t just hope, do the events 😉 been confirmed it’s doable

[abstract gate]

Who’s BarnOwl? He has an account? 👀

[static wigeon]

This spend event has to be completed to unlock Tendi, correct?

[abstract gate]

Correct

[static wigeon]

💀💀

[naive meteor]

I haven't even got milestone 4 .. 🤨 can't contribute when there's a spend event's on . 🙄

[abstract gate]

Ehm we didn’t have spend events for battlepass. Not sure how that’s related

[neat fern]

So assuming 1 completionist event per day for the next 16 days for tendi, that means I need an extra 3 to get the 19 remaining I need. Got 8 already

[abstract gate]

8 is fine

Remember, this is the fourth day in

[naive meteor]

Today's is!

[abstract gate]

Ehh no, today’s battlepass event is mining

[neat fern]

Yeah four days in and got 8 so I’m assuming there could be extras

[naive meteor]

Gaining Picard is a spend event..

[abstract gate]

Yep, some days you can obtain more just like the last couple days. Just to let you know you’re well on track

[abstract gate]

Yes it is. But also not a battlepass event. It has nothing to do with how many milestones you have so far achieved in the battlepass

[feral hawk]

Correction, Picard event is ridiculous spend event... Just when I was considering opening my wallet again, thinking our household will be staying F2P for the foreseeable future. That Tendi event is a brilliant gotcha moment $copay.

[neat fern]

It’s dolphin territory

[abstract gate]

With similar milestones as the last months

[feral hawk]

& yet, was it tied to an event like the Tendi event so heavily & that without it, you were sunk? Between this & the current BS in MSF, it seems $copay really don't want money.

[neat hamlet]

So it says use a speed up and doesn’t mention what kind. I’m taking from experience it has to be a building or research speed up?

[naive meteor]

I just want my original station!

[copper parcel]

@neat hamlet building worked for me

I used a 15 minute, I've heard other people say that they had to use longer ones but that was not the case for me

[neat hamlet]

Well that sucks cause all my buildings are at 35 and have been since 1/1/22. And I’m not moving until my research is all caught up. Hope I can scrounge enough iso or outlaw medals to get a research working by tomorrow then.

[copper parcel]

Actually, go ahead and try a research. I know that repair speed up did not work for me. Now I'm not remembering if I actually tried research speed up

[neat hamlet]

I can’t start a research yet.

[copper parcel]

Good luck

[neat hamlet]

Thanks.

[karmic vault]

I did a single speedup on a building, but others have said building a cheapie ship and using a speedup on that works.

[naive meteor]

Some of us maybe stuff ed..

[hasty lintel]

A one minute worked for me but I cannot remember if i did research or building

[neat hamlet]

Oh yeah you can speed ships. It’s been a while.

[copper parcel]

Good idea

[elder rock]

Using speed up on ship tiering works, but did not work on ship build

[long slate]

Picard event is worthless

Not worth the time if you already have the officers

Looks like Scoply trying new ways to increase revenue this arc, but I don't think that it worked.

Even the highest spender referred to this arc as a cash grab lol

He's level 55

Looks like even whales put thought into how much they spend

Interesting for sure, but it looks more like "Catch Up" Arc for players that missed the officers etc.

Also addressed the issue with Lorca sourcing, but I question thr discovery skin.

Would have been better to increase the warp range or reduce the mycelium costs for jumping.

A skin just for an officer?

[mental tulip]

🤷‍♂️ I'm loving it. I got all the things I missed earlier in the game and am finally having fun again.

Different folks, I suppose.

[waxen galleon]

This arc is trash. The rewards are trash. But hey, it’s Friday.

Oh, and these rewards need to be updated per player level. Might as well just delete them for players 50 and up.

[neat frost]

idk some weirdo might want to build duplicates

[naive meteor]

A horder. lol

[hearty island]

Well in general i like this arc where scopely lets us pick what we want to have as reward. Question that we dont know yet is, how many 3d chess pieces we get. Only then can i say whether it was worth it

[brave chasm]

@pseudo rune can someone review which servers are paired with which for these xlb things, we keep getting one older than us, currently we have only 2 of our players in the top 30

[south arrow]

I always hate event store arc because we get no rss that help to progress in the game

It’s a way for scopley to reduce the rss we get

[hearty island]

? What do you not get in the event store? Ressis and 3/4 star is all there

[south arrow]

G materials trit dill par

Go calculate how much you can buy? It’s a fraction of a normal arc

[hearty island]

Thats my point we do not yet know how many chess pieces and therefore how many ressis we will get. So i dont know whether its good or bad

[south arrow]

Every arc like this a the same amount of event store loot

Scopley have fooled anyone who think event store arc are good and help players progress

[blazing falcon]

who can post a Data's traits screenshot? need for friend.

[neat frost]

dunno if i would have ever said event store is more lucrative, but it's more flexible

[waxen galleon]

I mean, for a whole 60k, one can get all of 2580 common G5 ore. What a deal?!

Out of touch the Devs are….

[weak walrus]

Just lat it

[waxen galleon]

Or, make the rewards actually not suck…

[south arrow]

Yes g mat need to be fixed for event arcs

It’s a joke now

[waxen galleon]

Oh, it’s long past being a joke.

[neat frost]

still a better deal than paying 450k for a chat icon

[south arrow]

Like I said these arc are useless

[waxen galleon]

More like, the events and rewards are dead on arrival.

[hearty island]

It is so obvious that lvl 51+ needs 4 star ship scrapping. Probably takes scopely another year

[keen ledge]

LOL An old mod wrote that who isn't here anymore, so I'm leaving it.

https://tenor.com/view/playing-drums-emma-watkins-the-wiggles-smile-happy-gif-19283248

[waxen galleon]

Maybe some new devs could wake up and fix the terrible rewards for these events….? But that is asking too much…

[keen ledge]

I've been asking for 3 years. I feel you on that.

[south arrow]

Why they should get rid of event store arcs they’re useless

[waxen galleon]

How about asking someone who actually gives a 💩?

Oh wait, none of them do. My bad.

Another awesome and entertaining arc. Awesome job devs.

[split crescent]

I asked couoke hours ago-some dude around here was promoting, get cath, she's great

[sullen veldt]

Yes if you look at the last milestone it has a may completionist trophy

[ornate geyser]

Cath is basically Tlaan++, right?

[desert laurel]

Only at T4-T5

[lost abyss]

Cath would really be worth it if they worked past 51. For many, by the time they get them to a tier where they are better than tlaan, they won’t have much use for either.

[ornate geyser]

For someone starting out, Cath is stronger at T1 and every tier after. Won't matter much for a low spenders, because Tlaan is easier to tier. But for future dolphins and whales, Cath seems the better choice...?

[jolly tulip]

I’ve been unlucky with Tlaan so my Cath is actually higher ranked

I run both with Geordi for swarm hostiles

[tulip raptor]

Running both tlaan and Cath at the same time got me lots of points in yesterday’s event. Occasionally there are uses to duplicates.

On different ships

[pseudo rune]

More than happy to ask about this Disco

[pseudo rune]

No I'm just trying to play the right way and learn!

[pseudo rune]

Thanks for the warm welcome =]

[past robin]

Give everyone 2 points.
Not their fault.

[south arrow]

when are we getting a treasury?

[safe knoll]

What does that mean 2 “points”?

[vital carbon]

is the syndicate prime pack missing items? It sure looks like it

oh I am assuming it is....its no longer available lol

[gloomy thorn]

lol they screw up and then decide that wait we cant let the player benefit from it, so we will have to think of a way to screw them.. typical Scopely.. they screw up and then decide its the players fault

[hushed moth]

Has anyone seen the items that will give you points in the Tendi event? Only got points on Day 1 and not sure what triggered that. I’m not seeing any of the “purchases” that are listed and not even todays Officer Mission (with the same symbol) changed anything. #🏆-event-chat #👽-how-to-contact-support

[wintry vault]

Yep like when they messed up mine and a few others who could do away mission they decided we don't get the rewards cause we didn't do the mission. Even though it was their fault for screwing up our accounts. They even said it was their fault.

[ornate geyser]

There's been at least one event every day with the completionist trophy thing for Tendi. I you currently only have 1 point, there is no way to catch up, other than buying the listed packs.

[hushed moth]

I figured that but the packs aren’t available to purchase at least not in the Event Store or even the real world money packs.

[ornate geyser]

Today's is "Recruit TNG Officer - SMS"

[vital carbon]

only pack that has been available to buy so far is the feesha skin....so unless you have feesha you wouldnt be able to buy it

[fierce jewel]

@spare perch thank u

[hushed moth]

Finished it this morning. Thanks JK, that’s what I was wondering. They have all these items listed but nothing has shown up. Good thing the timer is in days.

[plush hearth]

If we don't complete this event will we still get enough of the May completion trophies to finish the unlock Tendi event or do we have to complete every single event? The top milestone on this event is stupid high.

[abstract gate]

I believe you need all events

[last iris]

Nope, this is scopeless's way to screw you

[torn crescent]

Keep it up s43/44….you are killing it on the officer event

[ember walrus]

There are 3 of these this arc too and an armada event translates to pay us or else mostly

[abstract gate]

There’s two material spend events, not three. There is an ultra recruit spend event though

[ember walrus]

Just slightly better i guess still dont have the rss to spend for 2 currently. But just maybe i will finish

[karmic vault]

Is the Meridian Refit supposed to be in Cloaking and Refits in the event store? Some people in my Alliance aren't seeing it there.

[abstract gate]

Are you seeing it there 🕵️‍♀️?

[karmic vault]

I already have it, so I assume I wouldn't see it.

Kind of hard to direct others to it if you don't know where it is. 😛 The game announcement said it was added to the event store though.

[abstract gate]

Haha too bad, same for me :p

[ornate geyser]

Specifically a "use ultra pulls" event...?

[twin solstice]

Whats Sal tlhIngan wo all about?

[abstract gate]

It’s a meta event with I believe 4 sub events. Like Icarus. We don’t know any more just yet

[pseudo rune]

This is correct, and tagging @abstract gate as well. All Tendi (trophy) events do need to be completed

[plush hearth]

So basically Scopely say that we can all get the new officer without paying but make the events so hard to complete that most won't be able to get it without paying, thanks for the clarification.

[meager galleon]

Well, a full Epic unlock of an Officer has always been a task. And usually not an easy one

Should be expected

[ornate geyser]

Most players are terrible at saving those... I can already hear the gnashing of teeth...

[abstract gate]

Yeah I’m definitely making plans out the door that night 😅

[neat barn]

in previous arcs, you could earn the epic officers if you were doing the events regularly, they weren't daily like this one but it's a similar idea maybe even resource cost is similar

[meager galleon]

Well, the recruiting of say, Borg Miners was multiple events over the month - that also had spend materials events attached to them

[keen ledge]

What a coincidence. I also have plans...for whatever day that is!

[meager galleon]

This just seems to be ongoing, maybe more effort - but unlikely to be more spend - will have to see

[ornate geyser]

Epics are supposed to be hard to unlock. I would have loved to have had this path for 5of...the road travelled for her was way way longer than for Tendi...

[abstract gate]

Yeah the mats spend is tough especially on some ops levels. But we seldom have an event (not otherwise doable) that rewards spending ultra recruit tokens, so if you don’t save em for the best possible payout, ultimately your choice

[ornate geyser]

If there are only two mats spend, this is without question cheaper in mats than the SLBs in previous arcs. At least in the brackets I was in, on my server.

They're clearly trying to get daily engagement numbers up...this could work...

One difference is this event is all or nothing...previous ways, you could bail on an event and still end up with partial unlocks.

But then you're in the Harrison trap...when, if ever, do more shards show up?

[plush hearth]

The changes they've made over the last 6 months where they've gone from 'free to unlock, pay to upgrade fast' to instead being 'pay to unlock or wait wait for ages' is slowly killing the game.
I'm on a recently merged server and can already see the active player numbers dropping back towards what they were pre-merge. Players are just getting fed up with new content they can get. The low spenders are becoming F2P, the F2P are quitting, once the whales get bored that will be the end.

[ornate geyser]

I hear ya. It's impossible to be a collector in this game without either massive massive patience, or willingness to spend a lot of cash.

[abstract gate]

Really?

Lemme show you something…

Unlocking officers in the last 12 months has been so much easier now they give you full unlocks for SMS completion.

Previously many epics were auction unlock only, now they’re auction tiering.

My wall of shame has nothing new missing - it’s all the stuff from the back end of the auction-only days.

Current arc notwithstanding

[neat barn]

patience, soo much patience

[ornate geyser]

Seriously. I'm looking at a calendar year for my next real ship build. Doubtful I'll last that long...

[neat barn]

yeah, was excited to build the Enterprise when I first started, and one day i might get there!

[dreamy robin]

@pseudo rune While they're a fun and mildly entertaining distraction, please ask the team why they cannot separate missions based on lvl? I'm doing Hustle Culture right now, killing hostiles that are weak enough to kill with my Jellyfish and I'm being rewarded 2* raw mats and resources in numbers I get out of my 10 min chest.

[desert laurel]

They have separate missions for different levels, in this month there are G4 missions and a G5 one in addition to the G2/3 ones you're doing. They're mostly about lore and world-building rather than rewards though.

[placid scroll]

The tendi Event is a shame. For those on mid or high level below, level 40+, it could be probably impossible to complete the event without paying because of the material spending events.
For me it was 1,14m points to complete the last milestone.
That is very much and as you have to collect weeks or even months to collect the ress for only one building it is much hard to complete it. At least they had should added more milestones for partial completion.

[pale cobalt]

I have the materials to complete the event but nothing to spend them on so I decided to skip it completely no point spending small amounts just to get 1 or 2 milestones, I will get Tendi the slow way from the Cerritos refinery

[abstract gate]

39 and below it is feasible to complete with armadas.

40+ armadas being included in the scoring is just a farce.

1.14M when epics get you 50k points? You’re having a laugh 😆

[pale cobalt]

I'm ops 41, Armada metric is only really for the big spenders no chance for FTP to do that many

[abstract gate]

Mid to high 30s modest spend and two epics did it.

[abstract gate]

You can’t even do it feasibly as a spender using armadas.

[neat barn]

not with that attitude

[abstract gate]

It’s 23 epic armadas 🤣

[pale cobalt]

17 epics with no material spend to complete it at ops 41 big spenders could do it that way but not very realistic 😂

[abstract gate]

In a 24 hour window I don’t think there are enough epic DS respawns worth doing for even one person to complete it 🤣

[placid scroll]

It’s 48 hours for that event, but still unrealistic

[abstract gate]

True. But then you gotta consider others wanna do armadas too 🤣

They need to probably 6x the points for armadas in the 40+ brackets

[cobalt grove]

I've managed to save up around 36k since the last event made me spent them. Just.. dont use them unless an event tells you to🤷‍♂️

[ripe jungle]

Actually two epics alone at ops 36. Only 100k points needed.

It’s lower than last month at least in the 30s

[winged tulip]

Point is it doesn't scale at all. 2 epics is reasonable. 20 isn't.

[ripe jungle]

Yep, it’s totally broken for 40+

They should at least have some bonus points for deep space armadas scaling with level

[desert laurel]

If I had considered it before moving to G4 I would have used more of my epic starts to do events and saved even more mats

[agile acorn]

anyone at ops38 can you tell me if the ISS Jellyfish Bps are in your event store? or is it in the event store for ops39+?

[silver pike]

I think they are 39+.

[agile acorn]

cheers bud

[placid scroll]

Yes they are. But really expensive (56k/5bp)

[north meteor]

Is there any where I can find the total g3 payouts from the battlepass for ops 40 ? ( ops 39 deciding if push to 40 is worth it )

[silver pike]

That’s not that bad. That’s cheaper than G3 epic bps

A G3 epic bp is 21k for 1

[desert laurel]

Your bp is locked already, you won't get the G4 bp rewards if you level now

[carmine anvil]

Can't see if this has already been asked; anyone know if Disco BP's are in the event store? If so what OPS bracket are they in? Cheers 👍

[desert laurel]

https://stfc.space/
check there for the bp rewards to compare them

Disco's a shipyard 21 ship, so around there

[placid scroll]

Anyone knows what the freesha refit are doing expect of more freesha parts, description only says „more refinery options“

[silver pike]

At Ops 51+ it will give option to convert Feesha parts to G5 ship parts

[placid scroll]

I am ops 44, that will take years 🤣🤣🙈

[silver pike]

Pretty sure Feesha has to be maxed as well for that

It did have some other stuff for lower ops but I can’t remember. Rev and DJ covered them in their videos too if you want to check those

[placid scroll]

Ok, thx for the info

[north meteor]

I've tried looking under events but can't see them

[desert laurel]

https://stfc.space/events/6271260cf78c247648d36f76

That's this month's free bp

[shrewd knot]

SLB cross servers is bs. Now it's even harder to place since it's 4 level difference and a whole other server to compete against. This is annoying and discouraging. Got 39s dropping a mil plus against my 35 account. With only 50 places still, Garbage.

[elfin tulip]

I see you added BLUE PRINTS to the Higher Level Players Event Store but what about the Mid Level Players 25+ NO BORTAS CENTURION or LEGIONARY Blue Prints. Only SALLY, MAYFLOWER, STELLA, NORTHSTAR & a Few Others are in there. Think about adding those other 3 Blue Prints

[cunning radish]

you get them when you get high enough level to build them

it's always been like that lol

[desert laurel]

My store has Bortas, Cent and Lego bps

It could be rep-locked, are you well-liked in those factions?

[silver pike]

You should be able to see the NS it’s an ops 24 ship.

[naive meteor]

I can see the North star even though I'm on L22.

[carmine anvil]

NS (North Star) is a lvl 18 ship, that's why ^

[versed osprey]

i can still see it at lvl 31, even the normal jelly

[naive meteor]

I have one on my L27 station!

[carmine anvil]

As in it unlocks at lvl 18 shipyard 👍, really nice ship tho, good for low / mid 20's pvp and base cracking

[silver pike]

At 37 I can see both

[silver pike]

Ah yeah forgot. It’s available till Ops 24 normally 🙈

[carmine anvil]

Aha yeah; too many ships now to remember everything

[silver pike]

Yeah and it’s been a long time since I was in the low 20’s 😂

[earnest hornet]

G5 parts tier 10-12,

[silver pike]

Ah yes that’s what I was missing 🤣🤣

[noble oar]

You're better off skipping the ops 26 ships

[abstract gate]

In which way? 🤣

[silver pike]

🤣🤣🤣 ops level

[abstract gate]

🤣

[vivid cloak]

Hello

[abstract gate]

https://tenor.com/view/forest-gump-wave-hi-hello-howdy-gif-22164679

[vivid cloak]

I was looking for 3 star resources in the event store

But the problem is im on ops 18

Is there any chance that 3star Resources will appear in my event store?

[carmine anvil]

As you lvl your OPS up yes, I'm lvl19 and don't have grade 3 mats. I assume they will show up in the list at OPS20 as that's when the first core grade 3 ship is unlocked... don't quote me on that though

[vivid cloak]

Ugh sadd...

Although i hope i'll find an event that rewards 3star mats

[carmine anvil]

I'm assuming this is for North Star / Franklin?

[vivid cloak]

Yes

[carmine anvil]

Yeah I'm in the same boat atm 😆

[vivid cloak]

Hahaha

I made 2 huge mats mistakes that i highly regret rn

[carmine anvil]

It's a latinum pit until you unlock refinery for G3 unfortunately

Once you hit the uncommon G3 is where you're stuck, then you gotta wait

[vivid cloak]

Yeah...

I also regret not doing the faction hunt thing

Those rewards 3 star mats

[carmine anvil]

Yeah ay

[vivid cloak]

Ugh i really regret doing the prime research thing for an event

If i didnt do that, i have like 150+ uncommon crystal rn

[vivid cloak]

Anyways, thanks for hearing me out!

[carmine anvil]

No worries; let me see if I can see what lvl the G3 stuff unlocks for you real quick. I believe it is lvl20 but lemme double check

[mystic epoch]

I may be blind but I don't see treasure event on event calendar. There none this month?

[vivid cloak]

Thank you, although im planning to stay on lvl 18 Until i get the Franklin at the end of this may.

[vivid cloak]

Its lowkey useless to me, i cant even refine those broken desealing rods

[carmine anvil]

Yeah you need 4K of them to refine ☠️

[desert laurel]

There is one planned, it's just not listed on the schedule

[carmine anvil]

I can't find anything about the G3 unlock, so I assume it is lvl20 due to the Kehra unlock at the same lvl

[vivid cloak]

Yeah, thanks man...

[vivid cloak]

Still useless to me, no offence though.

[silver pike]

Then your Franklin is as big as it can get and needed at your ops.

[amber prism]

So to compensate for giving us an extra may completion trophy it sounds like they are going to simply increase the number of tokens needed. Am I reading that correctly?

[silver pike]

Not everyone received the extra point, I guess only time will tell how the tendi event will be handled

[desert laurel]

The plan has not been set yet. There are many options to choose, but what is known is that you have to complete every event that offers a trophy in it.

[cunning radish]

Anyone know if there’s an event for the freesha skin

Should I wait to buy for it.

[cunning radish]

It doesn’t matter how they do it

The most important thing is that you need to do all the events that contribute to the tendi event to get her

[silver pike]

You can check in #💫-event-information

[crystal stream]

@eco how do you expect level 40 players, who do not have a jellyfish and have not had it for at least a month, to finish the sms spend events. It is mathematically impossible to earn enough 3* mats in 2 months and complete the previous spend events, along rhe elite battlepass route, much less the ftp path? There are NO SHIP at 40 to spend 4* mats on and very few buildings at 40 take it. And even those that do, you can't earn enough 4* mats in a month for 1 upgrade, much less two.

How can you say ftp path when you make it impossible unless you have specific things beforehand?

[cunning radish]

That’s why you have to be careful going from 39 to 40

[silver pike]

I've seen many also recommend rushing to 41 straight away from 39

[crystal stream]

So you not understand that it is mathematically impossible to finish every spend event during an arch unless you have the jellyfish post 40. You can not earn enough 4* mats and 3* mats in a single month, even spending less than 100 a month, much less ftp.

That is not a ftp path. It is not acceptable or reasonable. Especially when the sourcing for jellyfish bp is extremely limited and random

[cunning radish]

Yea rushing doesn’t mean get to 39 then go immediately to 41

[meager galleon]

You know repeating the same statement in multiple channels won’t have much of an effect

[cunning radish]

You need to stay at 39 until you can feasibly get a jelly or whatever

[meager galleon]

Didn’t you say these exact things about 8 hours ago

[cunning radish]

I got jelly f2p in about 4 months

Waited a few more then went to 41

I’ve had no issues with having enough rss

[crystal stream]

Yes, but you have to have the mats and speed ups to do so. And you have to have 180k faction credits to get the miner, which is limited on upgrades.

The solution shouldn't be to hold players back but change the spend event costs for 40 and 41

[cunning radish]

If you want everything and expect it all now, you’re gonna have a bad time

Unless you pay for it. The game has always been like that. It always will be like it.

Accept it. Deal with it. Act accordingly.

[crystal stream]

Congratulations that you got the jelly after 4 months. I still need 39 bp's. And I do a pull every week. Even a couple 40 g4 epic pulls.

[cunning radish]

The territory service makes a huge diff. 5 a week is awesome

[silver pike]

The game is constantly evolving. My server is quite old and I remember when they said best thing was sit at odd number ops levels now they say rush straight for 35/37/39 and once ready 41.

[low furnace]

40 g4 epic pull is fricking heavy

How can u afford that in f2p

Unless ur alliance is carrying you

[crystal stream]

I don't want and expect everything now. But when you can not MATHMATICALLY earn what is required to finish 1 event, saving for over an entire month, much less 2 events, that is not reasonable or acceptable.

[cunning radish]

You pull at epics at 39 not 40

Waste at 40

For jelly anyway

[cunning radish]

You earn it in a month at 40

You should be anyway. I have been …

[crystal stream]

I am in a great alliance. I didn't spend epic pulls until I could pull the jelly. That is how. And they were not full pus

[cunning radish]

That’s why it does help to save a bit though before going to 40

[low furnace]

You make your own mathematical equation so you cannot argue with that

[cunning radish]

Cus the costs jump

[low furnace]

Thats a smart thing which i did not do 😂

[cunning radish]

I get being caught out by the raise in the sms costs. But it’s been around for a while now …

[low furnace]

But then u should be able to get 5 jelly from territory

[cunning radish]

Just need to kind of get used to look ahead and ask around

About things to consider

[cedar laurel]

The parts I need for my Franklin-A upgrade is not available in the event store. Only the part that I don't need is available?

[cunning radish]

Are you high enough level ?

[crystal stream]

I did and have. But you can't earn enough. The battlepass gives 1192 uncommon and rare 3* mats in a month. And 900 was needed for the previous spend events in it. Even along the elite path, you only get an additional 1065.

[cunning radish]

You get a lot when you get a jelly

That’s the real big difference

[cedar laurel]

yes

[cunning radish]

Before that yeah you don’t

[cedar laurel]

I am at 39 and need the parts that will be available at 41.

[cunning radish]

So you need to be 41 to see it

You can’t get stuff in the event store before you’d be able to normally

You get it free at 41

[desert laurel]

The warp parts in the store are intended for a 2nd FA, your first FA is ops-gated

[low furnace]

Yeah which i dont know why would they build a second

[cunning radish]

Candle, if I may: ops-gated parts; the parts are ops gated

😇

[crystal stream]

Can't get any from TC, about 6 players control our entire tc and unless you bow down to them, your alliance can't get one. And they own all of them.

Saying a player has to be in a top alliance to get jelly bp is nude bad gameplay.

[desert laurel]

I didn't need to stop my g3 epic chest opening, the cooldown is long enough to easily chain max pull

You're missing out on lots of stuff if you stop

[low furnace]

Thats life. Maybe go there as an exchange student

[cunning radish]

How else will I get my lucky full 4* ship pull candle ??

[silver pike]

Thats down to your servers politics and how you decide to play no one can control that

[cunning radish]

If I don’t save for those g4 epics !!!!!

[crystal stream]

I don't even touch g4 rares. They are a waste. I get more epic directives in a single 3* rare chest than 2 in a 4* even if they maxed out.

[cunning radish]

https://tenor.com/view/surprise-chris-pratt-parks-and-recreation-parks-and-rec-shocked-gif-5571450

[low furnace]

I mean with ships they can

[silver pike]

I meant those giving the advice here cant control that. Its a server based issue.

[crystal stream]

That is due to a bad scopley implementation of TC. There is own thing to promote pvp and another when whales control it all. Almost all servers the whales control the tc, and servers where the whales band together control it all.

[desert laurel]

There's not enough income in sub-DS epic armadas for those, or for rares. Pretty sure you shouldn't do those until your alliance is capable of G4 armada content

[crystal stream]

My alliance does g4 ds armadas now. I can't reach them without my disc and since I don't have a jelly, I don't do many. But that shouldn't be a requirement in being able to finish the sms spend events in a battlepass. That has little bearing on being able to actually earn, and have it to spend, on the sms spend events. Scopley has failed.

[desert laurel]

Just pull a lucky 42 was my plan too 😆 , but yeah, plan B was the 200k credits I saved up for the valdore.

[low furnace]

Not sure about that. Basic human emotions we are talking about. Everyone strives to be the strongest

So its almost in all server where u have to either kneel or die trying

I can imagine at the very least

[silver pike]

yep

[gray gazelle]

So anyone know how many ultra recruit tickets we gonna need for the SMS for may completionist? If it's anything like last ultra event i might as well stop doing them already cause it's way too many

[cunning radish]

My alliance does do g4 armadas lol

[desert laurel]

How is the epic income on that?

[cunning radish]

It’s ok. I’m on the lower end of power thoigh so not getting the most 😅

To be fair we need our 40 mil ent a guy for the epics in DS

And he isn’t on much

[spice nimbus]

Not everyone is in an alliance with whales to get 5 territories

[abstract gate]

Why would you need 5 territories to get the Jelly service?

[versed osprey]

you dont

you just need a territory with that service

[abstract gate]

No whales in this alliance, and don't hold 5 territories

[versed osprey]

you dont need 5 territorys or be a whale

[abstract gate]

indeed

[versed osprey]

you only need a territory were you can activate that service

[naive meteor]

All alliance's should allow other players to mine origin mat's! Even if it's for a week.!

[abstract gate]

How would you suggest that works ?

[slow hinge]

Stryker is right on our server to have a 3* territory you need whales because you cant have allies only 1v1 tcs otherwise its "breaking" rules. And theres no way an alliance of mainly 30s-42s can kill 46s-54s

[naive meteor]

Do it as a Recruitment Event, or just offer a nonprofit place in the alliance!

• And if some of those player's need Armada core's.! What would be the problem!? In an Armada Swap!?

[abstract gate]

You DONT need whales in an alliance to have 3* territory

[abstract gate]

Join an alliance that has TC space or merge, you are assuming all alliances have slots free

[naive meteor]

Alliance's on my server regularly swap player's for a month! They put their original alliance name next to there own name, as a Tag

[slow hinge]

To take a 3* territory yes, non whales cant kill g5s and thats obvious. Not saying you need whales to have one. You need them to take them nowadays.

[abstract gate]

Not true as is the case on our server

[placid scroll]

You don’t need 5 territories or whales for jelly service, but make it more easier, as you can get more alloys for activation with a bigger alliance with more high ops players

[naive meteor]

Jelly service LoL 😂😂🤣🤣

[silver pike]

Ah yes would you like our jelly and ice cream for dessert sir?

[abstract gate]

Dessert? 👀

[pallid heath]

Today’s icarus SMS didn’t give any points for defense platform upgrades, that doesn’t seem correct given the event description

[slow hinge]

See each server is different so its not really accurate to say

[abstract gate]

@pseudo rune in regard of the last announcement, you had a chance to say to players that you will let them miss an event and still get the tendy event done, a way to thanks them for playing your game, and you decided to not do it, this is just another let down to the community of this game

[silver pike]

There was a bug a month ago that makes them score like drydocks

[crystal stream]

I agree. Eco is making the game unplayable. Level 40's can't complete the tendi event unless they have had a jelly for a couple months or had scrapped and saved a couple faction ships first. There is no way to earn the resources and spend them otherwise.

The game has turned into a failure.

[abstract gate]

well i'm not saying is Eco's fault per se, but someone at scopely made an error, 1 more point given, this error gives an advantage to players, realizing that they (Scopely) could've done nothing and get the gratitude of the players, or spend time and effort to correct it and appear as the "bad-guys", they chose poorly in my opinion

[odd orchid]

I'm only ops39... what event was difficult to complete for ops40?

[crystal stream]

Unless you have a jellyfish and lots of 4* rss, the sms spend event is for 450,000 points. You have to spend 4500 uncommon 3*/4*

[odd orchid]

Oh, the spend G3+... yes, the SMS levels go up nearly exponentially. ops39 is 165k, ops40 is 450k, ops 41 is 850k, ops 42 is 1.15M.

[crystal stream]

And there are 2 of these spend events in the battlepass

[silver pike]

Not everyone has received the extra point.

[abstract gate]

they had planned 27 events with 27 points, than the one that gave 2 had made so missing one event will still net you 27 points

if they had done nothing

they decided to do something, like you are suggesting

[odd orchid]

I was at 8 pts this morning... I'm not sure how many I should have had.

[silver pike]

You should be on 7

[odd orchid]

Ooops, My mistake. 🙂

[crystal stream]

Eco said everyone will have to complete all the events. So no, someone will not get to skip 1.

[silver pike]

The 2 points wasn’t intended and some players have got an extra point from the who’s that officer recent

[lost wagon]

Ticket event with no tickets n neither free ones 🤣

Can anyone tell me how to see tickets purchase option it’s not available

[fierce thorn]

Nice nerf…. 🤮

[split crescent]

Yeah, I was hoping the ticketed events would not have gotten the nerf bat, like all the other events have this arc-clearly that was wrong

[earnest hornet]

What nerf

It’s event store month, events give event store loot, always have

[winged tulip]

cough #972185328385409024 message

[south arrow]

Convert the event tokens to g mats and par trit and see the nerf

[spring comet]

@pseudo rune these away team mission events really need to include trait xp as a spend function too

[golden knot]

What officer shard award was in the ticketed officer exchange event, alliance mate asked and I’m having foggy recall right now😆

[earnest hornet]

Because the event store conversion isn’t set for mats and rss, it’s been the best event store loot for tickets so far, either do it or don’t, but event store loot is really beneficial if you’re wanting things from the event store

[earnest hornet]

http://stfc.space/events

[autumn steppe]

Anyone else have the away missions not scoring correctly?

That 3.800 points are from 3 epics. Two of them were critical successes. <—-wrong

[naive meteor]

O'No more none Scoring event's... 🤷🏼‍♂️

[autumn steppe]

I didn’t say I was surprised 😅

[naive meteor]

Maybe that's the event after all.. lol 😂

CONGRATULATIONS 🎉
You Win 👉🏼 Another day playing StFC LoL 😂 🤣

[autumn steppe]

Nope. Was me. 🙈

I misstook boarding party to be an epical away mission.

🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

[split crescent]

Yes, but the event store loot value is a fraction of what is in a normal ticketed event. To get around the equivalent amount of mats that was in a ticketed event last month, I would need about 4 times what is in these

[autumn steppe]

It’s just a rare, so scoring is fine.

[neat barn]

maybe they add the option of choice as an additional value? weird but maybe

[split crescent]

Only explanation, but then when they require you spend 20k unc each month for events-obviously not gonna keep up

[south arrow]

Events store has nothing that helps players progress in game so it’s useless

Whocares about frames and crap like that it’s useless

[autumn steppe]

There are some ship BPs, one Prime research (I‘m unsure about it’s use), and ship parts (DVor/Feesha). That is useful.

[south arrow]

No it’s not you get all that in game already

[autumn steppe]

Agree. Frames is always like. Yeah. Nice, but there are better options. They’re just too expensive.

[autumn steppe]

But not nearly in the amounts needed. (Feesha/Dvor parts)

[south arrow]

None of that helps players process

[autumn steppe]

You also get parsteel and materials in the game. 🤣

[autumn steppe]

Let’s agree to disagree on that. But what would you want?

[south arrow]

Not during this arc

[autumn steppe]

Battlepass holds ress.

[south arrow]

Yes and we get that normally

Now we loose all the other rss we would normally get

[autumn steppe]

So?

[south arrow]

For a few bp or cloaking make zero sense

[autumn steppe]

Granted I’m a hoarder sitting on enough tokens to go to the next ops level.

[south arrow]

You make no sense and are not very good in game if you only plan one level in advance

[autumn steppe]

So for me not easily optained stuff like bp is way more usefull then parsteel.

[abstract gate]

the matter is that they take away x amount of value in mats/resources to give x/10 in value of event store credits, or even less

[south arrow]

And you must be a very low level player

[autumn steppe]

It was an example. And yes. Ops 40 is quite low.

[south arrow]

Yes very low

When u need 100k of uncommon you need every bit

[autumn steppe]

So you wait one arc. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Or check your credit card if you‘re pressed for time.

Like most high ups do anyway.

[south arrow]

I play smart sorry 🤣

[autumn steppe]

I do too. Just on lower ops apparently. Where that’s a bit easier.

[south arrow]

And the more rss we get the higher our level

Getting ship prints doesn’t help

[autumn steppe]

Only if you want the pay to have ships for free. But I agree with you.

[south arrow]

You get most of them free in game why would you have to pay for them

[autumn steppe]

Or have DVor parts faster then from dayly reffinery.

[south arrow]

Dvor 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[autumn steppe]

Just to have them sooner. 🤷🏻‍♂️ I won’t go for it this time.

[south arrow]

Who buys those 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[autumn steppe]

For a second Feesha you need a Dvor. 🤷🏻‍♂️

People without a Feesha I guess. There were a lot on our server without a maxed DVor. 🤣

[autumn steppe]

Correct and give a lot of not really needed stuff instead.

[south arrow]

Freesha a waste of time and does not help anyone progress in game 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[dapper drum]

I had dvor bp's for months before I built it from 30 day chest, over a year before I used it, which works out to once every 3 months as is

do 1 ROA SLB and you are set for quarter of a year or more

[split crescent]

Of course some of the things are useful. But giving up that much value is not really helping the users

[dapper drum]

as for CLat, you can just loot it

its an absolute waste to spend all that trit on the dvor which is considered an epic g3 only to scrap it for a feesha

which takes even longer to upgrade than the dvor did 🤣

[rich leaf]

Scopeley can kiss my 🤬 with the away team event.. That's a joke. 1 epic and 3 rare and not a critical success. Plus 6900 points in OPS 44?I would have to buy 100 € packs every time to be able to do that😡

[dapper drum]

so they got you right where they want you

[keen mist]

They gave advance notice, shouldn't be a problem to complete in 2 days (44 here btw)

[dapper drum]

I'm halfway done from 4 missions I started 2 days ago

still got 7 more going to finish before event done

and you get 12 hours every day from dailies

so plenty of speedups if I need to use them

[rich leaf]

I know all that.I started 2 days earlier too. But I only got 1 epic with 5 days😡Even the rare ones only with a term of 2-3 days

[dapper drum]

yeah they are long, but 1 week is 3 1/2 days of free speedups from dailies

and been few weeks since last ATA event

[rich leaf]

Got that crap every time at the AT Event.If I'm lucky I'll get one! with critical success

[ornate geyser]

ATA events can't be considered a surprise anymore. The game does give everything needed to clear the SMS.

[wide girder]

Can't comment on this arc so far BUT what I can say is that the event store is yet again way over priced for the 3d chess you want us to earn and spend on overly priced goodies.

Eg the complete missions event used to be 60+m dilithium reward, in this event it's 3.5k chess which equates to 4.3m dilithium in the store. IT. JUST. DOESN'T. COMPARE

The event tickets are equally poor value since you've removed all UC and rss and again replaced it with chess currency that won't even buy a fraction of the UC we used to get.

Come on guys!

Sort it out and make this worth doing otherwise this set to be a duff arc, with a wasted battlepass

[weary matrix]

The recruit Tendi event requires to do Disco wars, If I don't have Disco I can't complete the event right? #⚡-mod-announcements message

[ornate geyser]

That event had usually had a non-Disco alternate path, IIRC.

[desert laurel]

Disco's in the event store too

[spice nimbus]

That service is 3* territory so you need whales in your alliance to get it

[dapper drum]

no you just need active players and good allies

whales will help but they are not a guarantee of winning

[spice nimbus]

Doesn't work when tc is 1v1 or the whales get involved

[ornate geyser]

Moneyball works...right up to the moment you run into a team playing Moneyball with 10x the money.

Then there's nothing to do but enjoy the ride.

[desert laurel]

Tickets that have low value this month for you can be saved for next month where you can get full value again.

[ornate geyser]

That works up to the moment a lot of players actually do that. Then the analytics flag an over accumulation of unused tickets and we'll get a ticket-version of the 50B steel event.

[fathom shuttle]

Don't forget that some players consider anyone of somewhat higher ops and ship power than themselves a 'whale'

[wintry tundra]

Hello whale friend 🙈😅🤣

[dapper drum]

a whale can only target 1 to 2 ships at a time out of 500+

if you use small cheap ships that are fast you just run around and out score them

if you are defending a territory you can swarm them with realtas and keep them away from take over nodes

it comes down more to cooperation with other alliances and keeping systems full before a takeover starts

[modest lichen]

ATA event has Zero Epic or Rare? TWO refreshes. And nothing but Uncommon and Common??? What is going on???? Two ATA events in a row? @pseudo rune Can you see what the heck is going on with this nonsense???

[dapper drum]

that is bad luck

[desert laurel]

There are 3x as many ticketed events as there are free tickets, so these extra unused ones from this month will be quickly depleted and another set won't be expected until the next end of arc event store. There won't be an over accumulation

[modest lichen]

I only have no epics during ATA events. Only time.

[neat barn]

not with that attitude

[dapper drum]

no refreshes

RNG doesn't like you

[modest lichen]

I usually have 2 to 3 epics at all times.

[dapper drum]

when is the last time you serviced romulan jesus needs?

[modest lichen]

I absolutely hate ATA events now.

Every time I see them on the calendar, I just shake my head and hope they are not required for meta.

What level is your Away Teams Building?

I'm at 28. I get no officer options on critical hits yet. I'm assuming that is at higher level?

[dapper drum]

shuttle bay is 36

ops 41

[modest lichen]

Lol. I was looking at Exo Building. I'm at 35.

[dapper drum]

what about your extra epic slot from ATA tech

[modest lichen]

ATA Tech?

[dapper drum]

the Away Teams tech tree

[modest lichen]

Launch Thrusters?

[dapper drum]

ugh nm only a tech there to unlock epics

bunch of techs to add extra slots

thought launch thrusters gave an extra permanent epic slot

[ornate geyser]

We have about 500 active players in total on my server, split between two coalitions. Both coalitions can flood the system, so the difference is the half-dozen super strong players with multiple giant sarcs who basically take the nodes out of play for the coalition without the giant players.

When you don't have the activity/numbers advantage, and there is a huge power difference, it comes down to the power difference.

If they play stupid, that's different, they can be beat. On my server, they don't, they play smart.

So...it is what it is. The only thing that really keeps our territory safe is the 5-zone limit.

[dapper drum]

why I said cooperation with other alliances is key and whales are not a guarantee of winning, if it was a pure 1v1 then power is absolute

[ornate geyser]

Both sides cooperate with other alliances, as I said.

When both sides do everything "right" it functionally becomes 1v1, and power rules.

Which is fine...that's the game...no point in complaining about it.

[dapper drum]

well you need to undermine the other sides cooperation if you can't out perform them

[ornate geyser]

They do that, too, lol. Again...both sides are playing as smart as possible.

[cinder lintel]

Anyone know what perks you get with the new feesha refit?

See if it is worthwhile getting

[tribal narwhal]

Double refinery for parts

[cinder lintel]

Hmm don’t know if it is worth it right now

[upper patrol]

Is it known that the Cosmic Cleanup event seems to be missing today?

[desert laurel]

Have you scrolled to the right more?

[upper patrol]

Yup. Might just be our server but multiple reports

[desert laurel]

Which server?

[wide girder]

Cosmic working on server xindi 136

[upper patrol]

82

[versed osprey]

you dont need whales for that

[spice nimbus]

Congrats on a server that you don't need whales to get a 3* territory

[desert laurel]

Check event list, if not there, clear localization and then do another manual reboot

[upper patrol]

It just showed up and started working right now

Thanks to whoever did something

[ornate geyser]

Same on my server...half the 3* zones are with alliances that have no whales.

[balmy horizon]

It would be nice to add some skin shards for Stella and vidar that are extremely difficult to get when f2p in the event store…

[weary flint]

Hi, I just spent 600 faction credits on officers but no points were counted towards the Fleet Development event. Does anyone else have this problem or have I misunderstood something?

[dapper drum]

only worth 6000 points anyways

if was indy credits might not count

[weary flint]

it was federation and romulan. sure, but if it not work, i will not spend any more credits.

[dapper drum]

credits for this event are not worth their metric anyways, only a bonus when promoting but its so negligible

[lapis harbor]

Just out of curiosity where do you find these level board

[dapper drum]

dark space

[lapis harbor]

Figures

[dapper drum]

well 37/39 are in normal space

you just need frank-a for the warp range

[lapis harbor]

👍

[dapper drum]

all swarm systems have an ion storm behind them so just look for thunderstorm on the galaxy map

[lapis harbor]

Thanks

[ornate geyser]

Look at the scoring. Using faction credits is the most expensive way of clearing it. Use XP or Trait XP.

[weary flint]

have done it by spending trait xp 🙂

[weak walrus]

@pseudo rune any chance they add Away Team Speedups to the event store?

[weary flint]

@desert laurel will there be only exact 27 'may comleteionist' medals available until 'recruit Tendi' is over? Iam asking because that one from 'recruit TNG crew' is practically impossible to get if you are at ops21. Even if you had so many, there is nothing, one could spend that much g3 mats at this level. (...and i of course will not spend $50 or more to unlock Tendi :))

[desert laurel]

It's intended that you complete every SMS that awards a trophy

The plan for that bugged pt has not been decided yet

[weary flint]

hmm, ok. i will do all the possible events and we will see.

[thorny niche]

@pseudo rune @desert laurel @keen ledge

Do we have any SLB /SMS/AMS /ALB to spend the 3D chess token this month ?

[calm belfry]

I was about to say there never has been. But last Event Store there was an ALB for spending tokens

[tawny elk]

I hate the stupid away team events, pure luck based…. I have only one rare and no epic assignments, need to wait 10 hours before I might get an epic, then it could be a 1 day or 5 day…. Both for same stupid points

[vital drum]

I have no problem with ATA events, finished the SMS by saving all missions til this morning (most of which were commons), and then sped up a rare 2 day rare which didn't crit (it was on 66% grr).

You just gotta run all the shuttles a couple of days earlier and complete one uncommon a day for the dailies. It's pretty easy

[crystal iron]

can anyone else, use their cosmic clean up tokens in the event store to get blueprints? I dont have the option to use. I only have the option to spend the event currency...

[weak copper]

It doesn’t show the cosmic cleanup tokens at the top of the screen but you should still be able to spend them

[crystal iron]

ahhh.. my mistake.. I went into the ship blueprints 😂 didnt scroll to the end

[tawny elk]

I just hate that it’s based on luck too much…. Why should I get the same rewards for a 5 day epic (and have to spend more speedups) than someone that draws a 1 day epic…. That’s if I’m lucky to get another epic….

[pure bear]

Question on the event that just ended a day or so ago. I think it was an SMS event that awarded points based on crew shards received. Do shards gained from missions count or is it only shards from using recruiting tokens? Sorry for the lack of full info. I'm new

I'm trying to determine if I should save mission rewards or not for the next similar event

[vivid gyro]

Officer shards should count from all awarded locations.

[pure bear]

Thank you

[livid palm]

Good evening!! Not sure if this was already asked, I tried to scroll up to find anything but didn't see it. What's this?? Sal tlhIngan wo' (Level 10+ wa'nuv pe' 'egh)
May 10-12
qa' wIje'meHmaSuv. ghob Jagh, ngo' je chu'! I found it in the event information... anyone speak klingon here?? That's my first guess, but I really don't know what this is.

[tawny elk]

Yup, same crap…. Spent 5 days of ATA speed ups and still no epic…. Useless luck based event frustrates the crap out of me

[indigo crypt]

Sal tlhlngan wo'

Rise of the Klingon Empire

wa'nuv pe' 'gh

qa' wlje'meHmaSuv. ghob Jagh, ngo' je chu'th.

Represent the spirit. The enemy is fighting old and new things.

———————
Absolutely clueless what it means 🤷‍♂️

[quartz fox]

It's spending faction credit on promoting officers, not buying recruit tokens in the faction store.

[static wigeon]

My money's on a rerun of the hostile event in the Klingon Burial Ship systems

[chrome holly]

Am I misreading the BP flow? It seems like we're going to get the keys from the BP to unlock the God Complex mission chain after the mission event that wants you to complete that mission is over.

[abstract gate]

This has been announced almost a week ago, I started my epic assignments right then and there, just don’t claim them until events hit. insta finished event.

No epics every refresh since Tuesday would be real bad luck indeed but I doubt that’s what you mean

[vivid gyro]

Probably get the keys with one day to finish

[pale cobalt]

It's a meta event, which will have several events tied to it all written in Klingon so you will need to translate every event tied to it to find out what to do

[urban walrus]

Same issue at level 40. Dumped everything I can and still not hit the last milestone. They're trying to back you into a corner so you'll open up your wallet. I may just quit the game instead 🤷🏻‍♂️

[sour lotus]

I like the mechanic of full unlock if you complete all event. At least its better then pure spending. Admittedly it needs planning but thats what it takes for ftp path i guess

[coral niche]

The 3o11 spend sms caught me off guard and I needed months to get 3o11 complete. Since then I save up mats for spend sms. It’s perfectly doable if you hoard between spend events.

[formal birch]

ye there should be few ,,slick days,, possible to complete

lets say 3-4 it dont make game that frustrating

especially at the end on month wehn people figure they have 2-3 missing 😄

[sturdy hinge]

I came to the realization this am that Scopely completely screwed me on this officer recruit event. I have literally nothing left to spend 3* mats on - no ships, no research, no building - and I can't yet run armadas or refine 4*

but I need it to get the complete trophy, right? So I will end up having to buy something to complete?

Why put me through this? Just tell me I need to buy the thing 😦

[spice plover]

Build another lvl 26 ship or two and spend 3* on that. You can later scrape those for 4* mats.

[sturdy hinge]

I am lvl 20

I just got a franklin, thought that would need 3* stuff so I worked on upgrading, nope still asking for 2* mats

botbay, still asking for 2*

[carmine anvil]

Franklin hits G3 parts at T5

My advice would be to hunt in lvl26-28 systems. I'm OPS 19 and have been gaining mad amounts of Kehra BPS from systems in that level range. Build another Kehra (if you don't already have one)

[desert laurel]

Kehra uses G3, can't build one?

[carmine anvil]

I think the issue is Rox has maxed the Kehra they built at hitting OPS20? if I'm reading the original message right...

[sturdy hinge]

yeah

[desert laurel]

Then you'll need to farm up another set of bps to build another, tough ask with little time, but maybe you have some already?

[sturdy hinge]

I guess I am just at a weird space for this event

[desert laurel]

Or level, if you're done with buildings and research, what's stopping you?

[carmine anvil]

Probably time 🤣

[carmine anvil]

Yeah that's pretty much it. I had the same issue with G2 parts. It helps with your hostile dailies to defeat the higher level ones to cover all of the lower lvl's to if that makes sense. Gets more high lvl BP's instead of getting the T1/T2

That's how I started hitting the bracket of T3 ships, also helps if you have the North Star.

[sturdy hinge]

I have plenty of building and research they just don't require 3* mats

[desert laurel]

They will lead to ones that require g3

[sturdy hinge]

so I will have to spend some time researching that so I pick the right ones?

I want to play a game, man

this isn't fun

[desert laurel]

Then push blindly, it's not so bad, just inefficient and maybe expensive

[carmine anvil]

^ that's what I do

[hasty jungle]

You work for Star Trek

?

[desert laurel]

No, I'm a player like you, but given mod powers

[hasty jungle]

You give mod Powers ?

Or have

[desert laurel]

Have

[hasty jungle]

How lol

[desert laurel]

They asked me to be a mod, and I accepted

[hasty jungle]

And what you can do with mod Powers

[desert laurel]

Keep the discord clean of inappropriate messaging for the most part

[hasty jungle]

What is your OPs Level and Power

[desert laurel]

ops 43

[hasty jungle]

Power/strenght

[desert laurel]

Low, because I rush

[vivid gyro]

Then just play. Don’t let FOMO hold you back. Do you. The Cerritos refinery, when you get there is a sure fire way to Tendi acquisition. That’s the only thing you will miss out on by not hitting an SMS event in the meta. You are good. There is a level of planning that comes along with this game but that comes with time. Especially at higher ops. https://stfc.space is your best friend, all the info you need. Lock your factions. Do your dailies. Help your alliance.

[hasty jungle]

I need rlly help in thsi game

I have notging

Nothing

[sturdy hinge]

Thanks man, I guess that is what I mean by "coming to the realization" I will either need to spend or miss out this time

[vivid gyro]

There’s some events I just outright skip. A lot of leaderboards I nope out of. I’m ops 42. Just 🤷🏻‍♂️, nah. No time or rss.

[sturdy hinge]

You are right though, I don't really need it - maybe it will feel really zen to just let go

will you be my STFC therapist? ❤️

[vivid gyro]

Don’t get me wrong though, she’s a door officer out of the box. If you can look at it and figure out a path. She’s will be awesome below decks at your ops and going forward. But if not, you have a TON of game ahead of you.

[sturdy hinge]

I have to let go being mad at this game for doing these things that set me up for failure

[vivid gyro]

I just wish more people would come in this discord and try to talk reasonable with people. The mods do a great job like @desert laurel but they are responsible for so much.

[sturdy hinge]

The advice is helpful when it is real advice and not "gid gud" or whatever

[vivid gyro]

Exactly! Look at it this way, it’s a privately held for profit company. You are playing a game with no ads. That is developed monthly. Is it perfect? No. But there’s something new every month!

[carmine anvil]

Reminds me of toxic CS:GO players 😆

[vivid gyro]

I have to stop and remind myself often to just sit back and go pew pew with my alliance-mates. Which is my other bit of advice for everyone, don’t get complacent with your alliance. If they aren’t actively placing in the top 10-20 on ALBs, I would be looking to join somewhere else. Alliance help is one of the biggest boosts to individual success that people might not consider.

[carmine anvil]

Really good point that many overlook

[vivid gyro]

Being all reasonable in official discord. Gonna get shunned. 🤣

[sturdy hinge]

100% I love my alliance, they are so great, active, and helpful.

[vivid gyro]

Excellent to hear that for sure.

[desert laurel]

The advice above would help you. I'd join an active alliance so that you can grow together and learn from each other

[hasty jungle]

My highest in alliance is 280 mio

[sturdy hinge]

I put this in event feedback: My SLB includes ppl who CAN run armadas but I can’t yet, so mats spending aside I can’t compete on the leaderboard which I think is the root of my frustration

[vague fog]

Is there a Treasury this arc?

[vivid gyro]

There more than likely will be but we don’t know when. This is getting asked multiple times a day. Not jumping on you, just pointing it out.

[dreamy root]

Is there any way to buy the BP points?

[dreamy root]

For which event?

[vivid gyro]

Yes in the $$ store

[dreamy root]

I can’t see

My game broken

[neat barn]

restart, reload, clear localization, reinstall, update?

not all at once, but could try one or two to start

[dreamy root]

I have

I’ll try again

I can’t even see it on the website store either

[thorny niche]

Well does anyone know about any spending event for the 3 D chess blocks ?

[vivid gyro]

Nope. Not in calendar.

[silver pike]

It’s something to do with how Scopely targets packs to you. It happens to me too. Most days I don’t see the point packs but 1 or 2 days in an arc I do.

[dreamy root]

Weird. I bought the points last arc so I assumed I should always have them

[silver pike]

I used to always see them. Never bought them but something in last few arcs has changed so I no longer see them and I know many others have said the same here.

[dreamy root]

I made a support ticket

[silver pike]

👍🏻 I wonder what they will tell you. For me they said that the packs are catered to my development and won’t always be there or the same

[dreamy root]

That’s kinda dumb then

[silver pike]

Yeah it doesn’t make sense to me either but there is no harm in seeing if there response has changed since I asked

[dreamy root]

Yeah

[deep steeple]

Is there a treasury event this month? Don't want to upgrade yet if there's an event due

[vivid gyro]

Nothing in the published calendar that everyone has access to

[silver pike]

There is a treasury loot event every month.

As for the upgrade treasury event idk 🤷‍♂️

[deep steeple]

I'm still nearly 5 months away from unlocking the safe just interested in the SMS that awards ferenghi shards on completion. Will have to wait and see

[sudden ledge]

What is todays ticket mining material, gas or crystal

[silver pike]

Just take a wild guess and set 2 miners out till you know ☺️

[sudden ledge]

😅

Thanks for the epic “help” the correct answer would have been none

[chrome holly]

According to the schedule, its May 7, 10, 12, 14, 20

Ah I see you knew that lol

With another officer exchange ticket event on the 9th

[silver pike]

🤔

[empty stratus]

Where can you see the level range competing in your bracket?

[raw owl]

Event description does not match scoring mechanics. This is a persistent problem.

[noble oar]

@pseudo rune It'd be nice if time consuming events like the armada one were run on the weekend instead of on work days...

[unreal vortex]

Also the leaderboard has 10-15 different servers in it

[tacit holly]

if I am going to have to go against the entire game the rewards should be amazing

not 10 epic shards and a border

[icy sedge]

Aye useless to compete with **all **the whales

[empty stratus]

💵

[brave chasm]

And it’s gone

[sudden ledge]

Imagine that, scopely screwed the pooch on an event release…… who would have thought? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[weak walrus]

Glad i launched one

[cunning imp]

https://tenor.com/view/no-way-kristin-wiig-shocked-omg-no-gif-6232615

[odd orchid]

I mean... increase the number of ranks for each reward, and I'm fine with competing against a dozen servers.

[sudden ledge]

https://tenor.com/view/yes-way-yes-bill-and-ted-george-carlin-no-way-gif-16960746

[dense moth]

Was the armada slb reset? I'm missing points for starting.

[sudden ledge]

Lol now it’s back and the points were wiped….. golf clap scopely

https://tenor.com/view/charlie-sheen-emilio-estevez-golf-clap-men-at-work-gif-7577611

[past kelp]

SLB wiped.

[brave chasm]

And now not xslb

[versed osprey]

yeah they reset the slb

[cunning imp]

Great, I lost points again. Awesome job Scopely.

[cosmic knoll]

MYbe they’ll return the points? Or compensation chest!

[sour swan]

Sub 23s getting an amarda hunt.....wtf scopley

[naive meteor]

A compensation chest with a compensation chest inside another chest
.. LoL 😂😂

[cosmic knoll]

Ofc lol

🤣

[west eagle]

So popping rares and not getting points

[keen ledge]

Since DJ and I aren't Scopely employees, I think you may need to pick the mic back up. Wrong audience.

[neat barn]

6 degrees of kevin bacon

[atomic tide]

Shouldn’t be a mic battle, only some awareness about a growing frustration about the IT backend or quality of code and quality ✅.

[cinder inlet]

I also notice I’m getting copious minor graphics errors.

[atomic tide]

Still not clear what’s the secret of this event 42 min afterward reset.

[quasi dove]

How about increasing Armada respawn rate when there's an Armada event? I know, the logic is crazy

[silver pike]

Clear localisation cache

[noble oar]

And lower how many damn armadas are needed....

[silver pike]

Good armada crews can help with that

Using Riker and Decius and other officers in there respective crews can increase damage. It’s also good to find your sweet spot and hit that level of armada

[amber prism]

Or Spawn more armadas

Something to speed this up

[noble oar]

The crew is less the issue than just how many armadas we need/their respawn rate/the rate we actually get rare directives to launch them

[silver pike]

Do uncommon armadas the event is damage event + spend for rare and epics. You can run a bunch of uc 35 and uc 37’s that respawn better and can get the SMS done.

Also I’m curious what’s your 4th milestone for the SMS?

[noble oar]

I'd need about 30 39 uncommons to finish this event (to reach 235 mil)

my 45 teammate needs 375 mil

[silver pike]

Yeah that’s fairly huge but the should be able to do the damage

[silver pike]

Something doesn’t sound right there 🤔

[noble oar]

Assuming I do run 30 39 uncommons, and that's assuming no downtime, that would be 450 minutes or 7,5 hours....

[noble oar]

235 million

[silver pike]

Makes sense now 😔

[noble oar]

And good luck launching anything decent with most of the server humping the launch button

[silver pike]

Yeah that’s true 🤔 you need multiple ships or to find the off peak times which isnt always convenient

[noble oar]

From past experience I can say that the time that I'm off work is never good so these events are a damn pain in the ****. They're so frustrating I prefer skipping them but hey, now I actually need to do them for a multi week event so I'm not exactly happy

[warm oasis]

I try to jump my Disco and it says I need the latest app version. App Store says I’m current. Happening both on my iPhone and iPad. Anyone else?

[noble oar]

I think you'll have more luck in galaxy chat or bug reporting 🙂

[neat barn]

try changing the crew out, i think there is a bug but haven't unlocked that research to test yet

[noble oar]

And it's not like it's a difficult issue to fix or at least vastly improve, they've been getting the same feedback since armada's release

[silver pike]

True and they have responded once to it and improved respawns. This event used to be a lot worse than now

[noble oar]

They've adjusted them somewhat but nowhere near enough especially when you take into account how the milestone requirements inflate

[silver pike]

Yeah after Ops 39 they get pretty hard. And it must be strange for those low ops 40’s that can’t really do DS armadas to do this event 🤔

[noble oar]

Only hard in so far as it requires an absurd amount of RL time atm

and yeah, low 40's is where I'm at

[pale kestrel]

doesn't help they exclude the neutral armadas from it for the lower 39s

and not as many DS armadas as it is let alone they are only fed/klingon/rom armadas in DS

[ember walrus]

Look at it this way since the event is all or nothing if you miss one just skip anything you dont like

[naive meteor]

You haven't..? Get on with it LoL 😂😂🖖🏻

[dreamy root]

How many tendi points should I be at after todays event?

[pale kestrel]

i'm at 10

[dreamy root]

I’m at 7

Didn’t do todays yet

[abstract gate]

710M here

[weak walrus]

Ds armadas

[noble oar]

Now if there were actually more of those + a faster respawn timer....

[noble oar]

then you missed some I'm afraid

[naive meteor]

I'm at 8 tendi points

[dreamy root]

I guess I need to spend 50$

[weak walrus]

Thats true, but uc's spawn in 1hr or so

[noble oar]

You should be at 8, 9 if you already did away team, 10 if you did todays stuff

[noble oar]

which should be 5 minutes...

[weak walrus]

Also true. But if you try to do those with 39's youll hate yourself

[dreamy root]

I know which one it was too

[noble oar]

well both options suck as all are lacking in quantity....

[somber vault]

milestones Are to high for armadas. really high

respawn armadas faster or change scoring. it's S joke event now

[austere rover]

Where is “Officer Training” event announced in the event calendar?

[graceful portal]

Is there anyway to know what lvl the officers show up in the event store? I'm 19 and its just recruit tokens. Wondering if they show up at 20

[austere rover]

Sorry, is tomorrow, I’m confused because I think the first column in calendar was Sunday but is Monday.

[ornate geyser]

My alliance set a new personal best today - 11 simultaneous armada launches.

Complete chaos, lol.

[stone quiver]

Need more ways to get armada directives.

[dreamy root]

They told me that there isn’t any packs for this arc that give BP. Even though people have them in their stores

[silver pike]

Interesting 🤔 I would take there word for it I guess 🤷‍♂️ I haven’t seen a points pack this arc

[dreamy root]

That’s stupid

[silver pike]

Watch your words because Wes might be watching and ready to warn you 👀

But yes it is silly

I don’t pay for the points but I know for some it can be a helpful £20

[vivid gyro]

I have the points packs. I can screenshot them again. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[desert laurel]

My server doesn't have the offer now either, but I'd keep checking the shop, it might just rotate in/out on diff days.

[amber prism]

You know what would be awesome. For anyone that doesn't complete all the Tendi may completion events if the tokens were removed from inventory when the event is done

🤣

[hearty raft]

Why? I have spent 4 solid hours trying to catch an a single armada, to make tier 1 I hope, with no luck. This is their way of saying everyone can get the officer IF you can complete a nearly impossible event OR spend money.

[vital drum]

This armada stuff is stupid. How many times do scopely have to hear this? I'm on a quiet server so spawns generally aren't a huge problem, but getting the points anyway is just a time hog. I don't have endless time to play. I am trying really hard not to swear, but this kind of event deserves expletives en masse.

I'm really over it, it's not fun. I don't have the time, and there has been no effort to change. I'm getting seriously bored jumping through scopely hoops and anyway. Queue the idiots who say don't slam the door on your way out, but if scopely can't fix this then I'm not sure it's worth my time. I can't be the only one who has other pruorities

[amber prism]

The lack of armadas on top of the 15 min wait time

Oof this event is not hard just painful

[ornate geyser]

At my Ops it takes 3 armadas to complete - 39 uncommon, solo. But most people don't solo, so in practice it's more like 18 armadas @ 6 seats per. And yeah...18 armadas is 4+ hours of wall clock, under best of circumstances...that's a lot...and it can be a lot longer if you don't catch the respawns just right.

[amber prism]

Add to that I'm 100% sure there will be another armada directive spend again soon

You know to use the tokens you can't possibly have recouped by then

[ember walrus]

Or expensive. And honestly not really worth the effort

This is the only way to make the point if we gripe about the events but do them anyway. It shows that we are not that unhappy about them

[vital drum]

For sure. I can't solo 39's. Besides, with every man and his dog desperate for armada's it ain't gonna happen.

As I say, I don't have all day, and that's what it's going to take at this rate. Just frustrating when I can do most other events relatively quickly if I put some time aside - usually an hour at most.

[ornate geyser]

Yep, I agree with you, this event takes a lot of time commitment for the typical player.

It will be interesting to see if the analytics will justify a repeat of this kind of "tie it to an Epic unlock". I've done everything so far, but I'm beginning to question the value. And of the "spend Ultra recruit" event doesn't have reasonable SMS goals (like, it clears in 8 pulls or less), I'm out.

[ember walrus]

I was out at the spend uncommon and better event.

[vital drum]

Yeah that was bad enough. I can see this becoming very frustrating the further along you go. It's a nice idea, it just needs some tweaking as always. There's something in there that's likely to trip up any player at some point

[whole sapphire]

I'm still missing 6,200 points from Armada solo leaderboard what do I do

I posted in bugs here, I went and reported it to support in chat, I have a ticket number and I've been waiting almost all day for this to be fixed

[desert laurel]

Personally, I'd ignore it as 6.2k is nothing. But you can keep waiting for CS, and maybe they can fix it.

[abstract gate]

Did I miss grumbling about where the SMS launch points are?

Ah no, ignore me. They’re there.

[torpid light]

Not a fan of the Completionist Event concept. Mantra was always “you don’t need to do every event”, to now, you have to.

[abstract gate]

Reward is worthwhile though.

[torpid light]

Agree, that’s part of the problem. Would love to ignore the armada event but have to grind it,

[abstract gate]

You can always skip if you don’t want the reward. Scopely can’t win though; new officers are only for spenders, so they change it and now people complain it’s too much graft

[abstract gate]

in my mind they could have won, if instead of a single milestone for all events done, they had put multiples, like 25% events done, 25% shards, etc. ... or if they allowed a margin of error, and made meta event winnable when failing 1 or 2 events (like 25 points needed instead of 27)

[abstract gate]

Yeah, I think 50% shards for missing the final milestone would be reasonable. There’s enough event store currency kicking around and odd shards around you can then use to grab the rest.

[cunning radish]

https://tenor.com/view/pikchu-cry-happy-tears-fears-of-joy-puppy-eyes-gif-20418272

[desert laurel]

Allowing 1 or 2 misses is too much, there's probably not enough hard events in the meta. Just imagine how easy it would be if we could skip both spend events

[abstract gate]

Skipping both spend events and having to dump your entire event store currency into officers to get the unlock isn’t a bad trade for Scopely though 🙂

[ripe jungle]

Tendi isn’t in the event store though

[silver pike]

I think he was speaking hypothetically

[ripe jungle]

Didn’t sound like it

[silver pike]

Maybe, maybe not that’s the problem with text people read messages differently

[abstract gate]

She is.

[ripe jungle]

Hmm not in mine. Only 8 shards from the lower decks special

Yeah see “limit 2”

[abstract gate]

GPWM.

Didn’t look that hard cos I’ll have them all anyway.

[gentle cobalt]

tendi is in cerritos refinery (can be full unlock, but odds are very low)

[amber prism]

So you're saying there's only 2 spend events in the Tendi events?

[desert laurel]

Directly from the Game announcement. Only the bolded ones look "hard."

27 Events with Completionist trophies needed for Tendi:

• 4 Icarus SMS events
• 2x Cadet Training Program event
• 1 Final event of "Who's That Officer" trivia
  - 3 Crew Recruit SMS events (TNG mats, Disco ultra recruit, TOS mats)
  - 1 Armada Hunt SMS
• 1 Away Teams SMS
• 1 Complete New Missions SMS
• 2x Discovery Wars SMS
• 2x Anomalous Mining event
• 1 A Chance to Shine SMS
• 1 Final event of the Sal tlhIngan wo'
• 3 Doomsday SMS events
• 1 final event of Scrambled Communication
• 2x Wrath event
• 2x Tour of Duty event

[silver pike]

There is 3. 2 material (1 already done) and 1 ultra recruit spend

[amber prism]

Ultra recruit wouldn't count as a spend event

[amber prism]

One of the icarus was a hard spend event for sure

Unless you never used your exocomps

[silver pike]

I just mentioned all events with the word “spend” in it 🤷‍♂️

[amber prism]

Sorry I should have been more clear, I consider it a spend event but by definition I don't think scopely does

[silver pike]

I don’t follow but ok 👍🏻

[desert laurel]

Going the easy route will help if it's one of the harder events. If exos are an option, try them

[amber prism]

Thank your for that list, I must have missed where that was posted previously

[desert laurel]

Looks like that message didn't go out with an @ tag.

[abstract gate]

Might be low but it does pay good occasionally.

[desert laurel]

Didn't you get one yesterday too?

[abstract gate]

Nah, that is yesterdays

Just pointing out that it doesn’t have to be the ones/twos.

[silver pike]

Wow 😈

[desert laurel]

I need that luck, but for Tendi

[silver pike]

I need that luck for Mariner

[bitter snow]

I need a cerritos 😂

But I'm not sure I want to go to 36 until I can force through to 38...

[desert laurel]

What's to camp at 35?

[silver pike]

Frank A. But other than that nothing

[abstract gate]

Your last chance at mid 20s tail?

Wait, are we talking years or Ops?

[silver pike]

Same I’m a month away from it.

[abstract gate]

Burrito is good
