In light of the STF changes and the new 'Special Reserve' gear for space and that these now appear to be accessed via the pve queue as opposed to quest, will the 'legacy' space set of Borg gear still be awarded when this all rolls to Holodeck?
Apparently it will be available the same way the new sets are.
Though seeing as its about 100 times better than the 2 new sets we all know what is going to happen.
Please buff the new sets set bonuses so they are as good as the original borg set bonuses. (Read borderline overpowered. There isn't a single set bonus in any other set that comes close to the borg 2 piece bonus.)
It will eventually put on the STF vendor screens with it costing x amount of common Borg salvage or whatever it is called. Therefore, doing any STF for Y times will grant you the Borg Set. X and Y are not known at this time since it is not on Tribble yet. From what I understand, you craft the Sets with either common Borg salvage or unique Borg salvage.

I hope this DOES NOT happen as those of us who spent hours EARNING our old borg set deserve something more than those who did the lite version.

You mean completing each STF one time (per character) which guaranteed getting a Borg piece (3 STFs total), instead of having to repeat STFs over and over and over again to earn enough salvage to buy *one* piece?

Yeeeeah.. 'Earned' that set...
The fact that I can run 5 or 6 STF missions in the time it took to run the old version doesn't pose the same challenge.

I highly doubt that. The groups I've done the missions with were very efficient, and I *highly* doubt I could get each 'new' STF completed in 20 min or less.

May not be able to do each one in 20 minutes or less. I can say I did the new Cure Space in 15 minutes with a PUG. This also included the optional objectives.

Cure Space isn't really the complete STF. And, even if that was the only part someone decided to play, who cares if they can do it 6 times? That 6 times would have to earn enough salvage for one piece to be an equal time investment currently.
At least it's possible *to* complete parts of the mission now with PUGs. Doing an STF (arguably beyond Infected) currently with anything but a well coordianted group is unbearable and takes much too much time for sometimes zero payout. That leaves out most casual players who don't have a good fleet out from even getting the parts.
