    I mean all the stuff you get from turning in the Trinkets. It just got to be too big a pile.
    Yes, that's what I meant. They are account unlocks now so you don't have to keep them if not using them.

    Oh I gotcha. Well, if I ever see something different I wanna check out, maybe...I might do an event. But not really critical...I got enough regular / rep / fleet stuff to try.

    ...Posting a giant thread that has a TL:DR of "PuGgies, play this mission as the designers designed it to be played", especially if you are in a science ship - is either preaching to the choir, or a stealth request to have the mission's design... edited... to "encourage" a "play this mission as designed".

    Yakodym obviously saw the second part of my statement...

    Some people got it. You may not have been able to over the sound of how awesome you are. So I'll use smaller words.

    Me want player talk about playing Mirror Event better. Me want player get more marks.

    Short enough for your underdeveloped attention span now?

    I did a PUG last night in the mirror. I parked my Martok cruiser over the station and kept science team and tactical team running on it along with hull heals while spamming BFAW and TS2. Never went below 90% on the station. :smiley:

    I'd actually simplify.

    1 Cruiser/Dreadnought Cruiser/ Battle Cruiser (engineer-wise ship)
    2 Science vessels of any kind
    2 Escorts/Battle Cruiser/Cruiser (Any dps/aoe vape build should do).

    The formula is simple. We have the heavy cruiser roaming alone in a circle and powering up the Power Transfers from the relays while drawing aggro with FAW all of the time and obviously killing enemies that pop-up.
    Each Sci Vessel pairs up with an escort/dps.
    Each pair acts like this - The dps clears up the Rift with CSV/FAW, the Sci Vessel closes the Rift. Then they rinse and repeat to the next.

    When the final phase comes, the Heavy cruiser goes for the boss ship at all times, whilst the two sci-escort groups close rifts in a haste with the same formula. Then they all converge on the ship and unleash hell on it.

    Voila - maximum results, maximum rewards, perfect Mirror Invasion completed.

    Yeah, but does your way get you a sandwich, beer, and chips? I didn't think so. My way is better. :p

    Damn. Now I have to weigh which is better: Starship Mastery or a sandwich? This is going to be a tough call.

    Oh and to avoid those interruptions when shutting rifts etc grab yourself the trait from the Pathfinder class, it grants temp hitppoints that means you won't get stopped when closing a rift etc. A few other things do this too (attack pattern mastery i think?)
    I want to say Pilot Spec? EptS+APB will usually let you close a rift unless there's a lot of enemies.... or you get hit with a photonic shockwave. That disable from it will interrupt even through temp HP.

      Something that always amazes (and amuses) me is the number of people that try to kill the phantom boss ship that only appears around the NW section because of the cutscene being done live.

      Much better to move to where the rift spawns will be and wait for them to arrive.

      I said sandwich, chips, and beer.

      Not only is your argument invalid, you've forgotten it by now in your overwhelming desire to acquire the delicious perfection on screen.

      The power of food and beer compels you!
