Temporal Agent Recruitment For Discovery Era

So when or if the Temporal Agent Recruitment returns, would anyone want Discovery Era characters to become Temporal Agents as well?

    No, just re-run one of the existing Recruit events.

    Might as well, they can do them both, as both TOS and DISCO occur hundreds of years in the past

    Wait, both DISCO and TOS occur side by side, they may be one and the same, soo confusing

    TOS toons are recruited as Temporal Agents. DISCO toons end up in the future by accident.

    If I were Daniels, they’d be the last people I’d hire to get things done......on their watch the Federation was nearly brought down by the most incompetent enemy to appear in the franchise to date, the Klingorcs (as opposed to the Klingon Empire).

    Yep, and the Discovery episodes after that are written to happen in STO present day not the past or future, and the big bads are not capable of time travel on their own. So there's no need or point to being a temporal agent for them.

    If Cryptic wanted to I suppose they could retcon in a Delta Recruit style timey wimey thing that is added to the existing episodes, but that would just be retreading Delta Recruits.

    People want the free account-wide goodies.

    I enjoyed the Delta event for the excuse to replay content and sometimes for the Easter egg hunt, though it was half-broken on a few maps.

    the best benefit... upgrade all very rare mk 12 rep gear to ultra rare mk 13 rep gear.

    only way to top this would be to make all mission rewards ultra rare by default as well.
