    Ugh, the worst event grind is back. At least they finally made the item reward an account unlock.

    ~shoves Drac out of the way~

    Me can't wait to send those Terrans back to their dimension, talking to themselves. B)

    And the crew of that space station have to die so you can be peaceful Nebreeki?
    I'll be blasting my fellow Terrans back to where they came from, after all they fight for Leeta and they are traitors who must die.

      I'll take the adage that the enemy of my enemy is also my friend, now point me at those traitorous vipers attacking the station

        Reminds me of the old CoH days event for Halloween where random spawns across map zones would spawn zombies...the more people you had gathered in one area the more insane the mobs were. It was an absolute blast... Everyone jumped in where they saw the spawns...

        What @iconians said... Or memed. Couldn't have said it better myself. Who really cares what the weapons are (well, really would like them to be unique) but regardless, Cryptic is finally making the grindfest reward an account unlock.

        I grant that Mirror Universe needed a Prize but a Ground weapon? Seriously this is a space game and space fight. Give us something cool for our ships instead of grinding for a set of pistols.

        Honestly I would rather do a fast one than do Mirror event again.

        Would be better if they halved this reward for 7 days since by the time I've done this for a week. At this point I really have no motivation to continue. One big reason why I have a ton of these events opened but never finished and about to run out of room lol. Plus compared to some other games I play now the whole interaction with other players, bank, auction, etc is so outdated and un-user friendly as well as the crafting system that it only takes me a minute to get sick of it. I would make a bulletin listing of everything that needs to be done with this game especially for quality of life experience but like in the past it would just go ignored and waste my time. However if Cryptic or PWE is serious about how they can make this game approachable again send me a message.

        Thank you for making it account-wide reward.

        I can finally look forward to this as opposed to dreading it like the many times in the past. Terran ground gear is always welcome.

        THANK YOU for making the item Account Unlock, while keeping the stack of Dil and Marks Character Unlock. Best of both worlds! Bravi, kudos, well done!

        Hmm, Agony Rifle, Zefram Cochrane Shotgun. Yep, these Phaser Dual Pistols are something new in the annals of this game in that they are awarding a ground weapon for a space queue. Who'da thunk it.

        Oh yea... I was just asking for a Recruiting event as it's been awhile especially since nothing shows up on the Calendar for November 2017 or December 1999.

        Seems like December there going to be a temporal anomaly...

        Speaking as a week old player, am I to take it this event is not at all fun in any way?

        Well... DS9 ended in '99...

        So, perhaps that will be when the old DS9 model gets blown up in preparation for the next expansion/season...

        0.o?

        They had better streamline this like they did The Breach, otherwise it's 3 hours a day for 10 toons!

        Maybe you should ACTUALLY read the blog... The big rewards is now Account unlock, so for the "mirror dual phaser" reward.. You just have to run one toon and get the account unlock..

        Now.. if you are concerned about the 50K dil, marks and such across your 10 toons.. Well Dil and marks rewards have never been account unlock..

        So, run 1 toon for the pistols for all toons on the account, and/or run all 10 for the dil and marks,

        Your call... Cryptic never said you had to have 10 toons (didn't have to keep the LoR or AoY toon).. And, that, also is your call..

        Bingo! My new alt just made level 60 so lots of new ship traits to grind for. Throw in an account unlock and it looks like a good run each day.

        Guess it's an opportunity to test drive my new T6 I suppose. Can't be any worse than SWTORs same 4 events that I don't play they've been running for years.

        For all those touting perma-death, friendly fire, and the like to make the game 'challenging' and more 'realistic', let's make it more realistic by having consequences for not following your orders and defend the station. Anyone taking their ship out to the Oort Cloud to party while the station is under attack in the first phase is guilty of dereliction of duty.

        To be challenging and realistic, the Character will be reduced in rank three levels. They will not be able to use any ships, equipment, or weapons at their previous rank until they have reacheived that rank. You will not be able to earn and accumulate new Dilitium or EC until you reachieve your original rank (simulates forfeiture of pay).

        There's your realism.

        Not realistic enough. In the RR and KDF, the toon would be immediately executed (with loss of all stuffz). A Starfleet officer would be stripped of all rank, all stuffz would be confiscated and they would be "awarded" a special nerfed version of the Tuffli to begin their new career as a civilian tramp freighter captain. Additionally, they would not be able to use Fed social spaces such as ESD, K-7, Fed Fleet starbase, K-13....all they could use is social spaces avail to all factions such as Risa, Drozana, the New Romulus staging area, and the space for LTS holders. Since they were forced out of Starfleet in disgrace, they will not be able to proceed any further on the story line, either, except for missions that came from Drake.

        It's fun if you like spending 10+ minutes shooting zillions of enemy ships.

        The main thing that annoys people is that there's nothing you can do to make the mission end faster. You literally have to sit and wait for a timer to expire while killing everything that moves.

        Yes! Will you die a LOT? Probably.
