Shotgun mods are fixed, and retro-actively applied to any that were randomly assigned other mods via the method you describe.

What we have is not just a cease fire. They made peace. They are united now against a common enemy and realize that the (IMO fake, made up, sorry excuse for a plot) war that started in the first place was entirely caused by undine infiltrators.
-
We need to get rid of these obsolete faction limits to planets. As a KDF I should be able to beam down to Andoria. As a fed I should be able to get into Qonos. There's no excuse for it anymore. They're all happy allies.

No, it's entirely the server provider that Cryptic uses to host the server remotely. They're the worst in the business, and universally hated by every player in every game that uses them (STO isn't the only one to use them). They use deplorable business tactics to keep their cost of business down, but surrounding ISPs hate…

I was talking to you. I don't care if it's factual, it's a logical fallacy and a trollish response. You know it, too.
-
It's a false argument. Something like "plea for sympathy" or whatnot. One of the instant fails in arguing. It's a sure sign of a troll.
-
It's a mission reward, not an event reward. It will remain.

In terms of carrier-based traits? What else are you going to use? Besides, the pets get hurt so easily that it's useful. Can't target the little blighter that's about to blow up, but know he's close to you? Just pop a heal on yourself! He'll benefit (as will all your pets). It's not OP if that's what you're asking. It's…

The Oddy has far more slipstream up-time than other ships. Just FYI.
-
Erm... no. There's a major difference you're ignoring. The boff seat. T6 has an extra boff seat. That makes a major difference. On some ships that means suddenly your ENG-heavy cruiser gets grav well 1 capability (Samsar) or you can run LtCDR eng as well as LtCDR tac boffs. The seating is far more important than the…
-
BS. I can take the same boffs, the same crtd and crth skills, and get equally great results on disruptor damage types. Nothing you list is specific to the AP damage type, and you seem to not understand the real rankings (and how little difference there is between them) while parroting comments you've heard shouted…
-
I disagree wholeheartedly. First of all, there are many set bonuses that affect specific damage types, but none for AP. It was about time that AP got a set bonus. As it stands, this is a minor bonus, but at least it's something. Secondly, the fact that the set includes an AP 360 omni array isn't a bad thing. It isn't…

HAH! STO doesn't stand up to other games, to be honest. It's a money-grab grind-fest and a shell of its former self. The devs are continuously driving it into the ground and driving away the players. And you think it ISN'T already outclassed by just about every game out there? Tsk, tsk.
-
It's called a torp, but doesn't act like one. It has a time to travel to target, it has a cooldown timer between firing, and it hits shields without the bleedthrough that better torps can achieve. In short, it's the worst of both worlds. So what if you can boost it with AP consoles? The rest of it leaves everything to be…
-
cursed: protonic polarons and some other things such as boff procs and other effects. Including the recently-R.I.P. 10% tetryons. 2.5% was never a fixed rule, and most agree it's far too infrequent. Vreenak: I rather agree. Making a torp be energy damage? Lame.
-
Shinnok, you have no idea what you're talking about. You're ranting at something for made up reasons. Not only are you wrong (not inaccurate, just flat-out wrong) about AP getting "everything" and having an unfixed exploit, but you are falsely assigning AP as the top standard that all other weapons must aspire toward.…
-
That is my experience, and also mirrored by many other comments on these forums. Forget "command" seats. Just run them as non-hybrids. Basic ENG/TAC/SCI skills are way more effective than command.
-
You can only upgrade from your inventory, NOT if it's on your ship. Try that.
-
Nerfed? More like weren't thinking about consequences when they dusted off the archived code for the CE event. The major shockwave buff was after the last event. The code they dusted off never had that buff, so it has the original code. I wonder if that means the buffer zone is still in place (i.e. avoid the blast if you…
-
It's no such thing at all. You're really grasping at straws to make such a biased comment. Matter of fact, I believe something like this happened last CE event as well. They can't even keep their fixed bugs straight when re-running events. The bug exists -- the game room won't terminate after failure -- and it DOES affect…
-
It's pretty obvious why... with a pug, the queue creates a room and fills it with players. When you get the countdown timer at the end, the room terminates. However, if it doesn't terminate the queues will keep re-filling empty slots to keep the pug at full capacity. The bug is that the game doesn't begin the "you must…
-
Way to twist things into an insult. I don't expect any better from you, so don't worry: I'm not surprised. A simple orb weaver has 250,000 hull points, very fast regenerating shields, and very strong resists, on top of disabling your systems via subsystem targetting and tholian torpedoes. A recluse? It's north of 500,000…
-
It's a massive double standard. NPCs cheat. Period. They break all the rules and don't follow half of the game constraints that they should. They go magically immune to damage or pull BS out their afterburners because cryptic doesn't know gameplay balance. Tholians are some of the worst since DR buffed their hull ratings…
-
Everybody left. They quit. Cryptic drove them off. Many channels are former shells of themselves. Chat was working just fine last night, albeit much much slower than it was pre-DR.
-
Don't bother trying to explain it. 5 pages of them just twisting things around based on their ignorance of economic theory and sophmoric understanding of value/possessions simply illustrate that they're the kind of suckers that cryptic wants in this game. THEY are why DR is the fiasco we currently suffer through. They are…
-
Reported elsewhere, when a pug fails it doesn't end. The queue keeps re-filling the same failed queue because it never "exits" the queue. What's happening is you're joining one where the failure has already happened and the game room never died. I seem to recall this was a problem last CC event as well. Regardless, set up…
-
Okay, and now try getting it to a point you can use it end-game. Get that baby up to Mk XII, at least Very Rare. Try that, and report back. Let me know how long it takes with all the time gates. Let me know how much dil you wasted, how many hard-to-get mats you used to craft the upgrades, oh and don't forget the time gates…

QFT. Just... QFT.
-
You're lucky. Try looking up the tech points for SET PIECES.... And this is where it gets prohibitively expensive. Low-tier gear is fine to upgrade, but the tech points increases geometrically as the levels rise. You can use one experimental to get a mk II beam array to Mk IX without using another... then you'll use 10 of…

I'm just so annoyed at the current state of the game that I'd accept that kind of BS excuse if it allowed my KDF to join my FED fleet. Honestly. I would. I'd love to have KDF on ESD (legitimately, this time) and FEDs on Qonos.
