Hey
I used to play a lot STO a few years ago, but within the timeframe that the 5 year anniversary took place I couldnt play for a few weeks because of private reasons in real life. I however wanted to get the Kobali Samsar cruiser so badly, but couldnt see a chance to get it since the anniversary was the onliest way to achieve it. So back then i quit playing STO.
Recently I did read something about those Phoenix Boxes where you can get this old stuff that is otherwise not achievable anymore. Those boxes were made available two times so far, and I was wondering if perhaps they might become a frequent thing in STO?
If I get a chance to get my beloved Kobali Samsar Cruiser I would gladly come back to STO and play it actively again, but if there is no way to achieve those old Items/Ships anymore I realy dont see any point in playing for me.
So does anyone know if those boxes (or maybe other ways of obtaining old stuff) will be made available again in the future?
Thanks in advance
Nicole

So yeah, it'll come back. We just don't know when.

PLEASE do a search before posting a new thread.
In all honesty, I think the reference to the mythical bird rising again pertains to the items inside the Phoenix box, rather than the box itself. Items you could no longer obtain, like the Red Matter Capacitor, the Crystalline Absorption Matrix, etc.
N.B. Still can't believe they let you have the Red Matter Capacitor for as cheap as they did. Certainly after The Desolation of Spartan, that thing is gold, I tell you. Pure gold.
They still come back.
Just save your Dilithium and bide your time, the box will come.

Oh, we'll definitely see it back.
Interesting.... I've had that thing since day one and I nearly always forget to use it. It is because of the timer and I always want to save it but that need it now moment never comes... I forget how I got it originally. I think it came with my LTS purchase. Back in the day I bought six copies of this game for all the initial offerings and sadly for the sniper rifle one the person never sent me the code.

The Sarr Theln is a fun science carrier to fly. A good match would be a Romulan or KDF Science captain, so you can add even more space magic. Add extra pets with Photonic Fleet, and use Scattering Field to help keep them alive. Or a Fed Science I suppose, but they can get the Jupiter from the C-Store.
Thanks for the advice. I actually do have a Rom sci. Perhaps I'll give it to him. We'll see.
I already have the Jupiter on Fed side, and the Summer Event carrier. So yeah, Vince, my Rom LibBorg sci will get it.
Finally got my first UR token after opening about 1200-1600 over the last 3 Pheonix box events.
Bad odds sure, but its hard to complain about those amazing tech upgrades.
Finally can claim my Bulwark just gotta decide which toon gets it

So I now have to decide who get what as those will let me get someone a breen carrier with the proper frigates.
Greens will become upgrade fodder with the blue and purples being stashed for alts getting things like red matter and admiralty cards.
It's a good demonstration why one should never open lockboxes for anything but lobi.
