Did not see a single Galor class yet ...is it just me?

The Jem Hadar Ships where everywhere after a few hours.


Also the Dev Blog said there would be gold boxes with better chances for the good stuff,
did anybody see one yet?
(i played some Elite STF's but only the common stuff dropped so far).
Is this like the green box / red box thing from the winter event where nobody ever got a Red Box from the winter race?

    Yes 2 Galors in Sol, 1 in Sirius and 1 in a PvP-arena (squishy little thing). Maybe it was one and the same player all the time but I doubt it. ;) The "problem" is they appear to be more common because we get the messages. Actually I think they are more rare than the bugs.

    Gold box not even one.

    Yes - Ship

    No - Box

    But I haven't been looking for the boxes anyway.

    Ship: Yes

    Gold Box: No, but I have seen it mentioned in chat channels.

    Ship yes , i got lucky and got one. Gold box no because who's going to buy boxes from the STF vendor when you can buy them for 200 dilithium a piece?

    Congratulations on the ship!

    True, but the gold boxes are all BOP anyway regardless of where you get them from so they won't be on the exchange.

    the dilth vender dose not ever give out gold boxes
    and gold boxes have better loot
    also gives a way to use all them chips and borg stuff
    and yes you get more ore then it takes to get a box
    some players have a backlog or ore

    Ship - no
    Box - yes - got a Crossfire Tribble... useless tribble when you get them free for being an S4 tester, so I sold it for 200k

    managed to get 2 gold boxes from salvage from the ds9 vendor.

    one of them had a galor in it. i was in shock for about 20 minutes.

    Havn't seen any Galor's flying around yet, opened 150 lockboxes so far (90% of them using paid C-Store keys), and no luck getting my own (yet, will be trying again on monday). Fleet members have gotten Galors and Gold Lock Boxes tho.

    Can someone explain to this returning player what this means.

    What vender on DS9 can you buy "salvage" from and for that matter what exactly is meant by salvage?

    I haven't seen a Galor yet, nor a Gold Box.

    Found a regular box though.. Deleted it. That's $1.25 PWE won't be getting from anyone. ;)

    no, i went really dull and called her the U.S.S. Cardassia.

    when you play an stf (special task force missions at endgame for 5 players) you can pick up borg salvage and EDC. these can be traded in at ds9 for a mystery box. inside is a greater chance of having a gold box.

    i just got very lucky.

    I almost always got a Red Box from the WInter Event. It never had any movies inside though [clever pun few people will get].
    However, it almost always had a Green Box inside >:-(

    Some people can be so evil sometimes.

    On a side note: I'm willing to give everything I own in-game from 13 toons for ONE Galor or at least a Jem'Hadar Attack Ship so my Cardassian main can actually Captain a vessel that is more appropriate for him.
    If I ever get one, I am going to name it U.S.S. Migdal, after Rugal's adoptive Father. Rugal, being the character from DS9's "Cardassians" episode that spawned the book featuring the same character, which inspired my Cardassian main ;-)

    Thanks for the answer.

    It would be interesting to know how many salavage you traded in to in the end wind up with two gold boxes.

    I have quite a bit of useless borg salvage in my bank.

    5 or 6 bits i think. not sure if that mean the gold box is easy to obtain or if i got unbelievably lucky. probably the latter.

    According to the notices STO runs across the top of my screen about every 5 minutes (when the game was up right before the maintenance that started an hour ago) it seems like EVERYONE is having better luck than me at the moment.

    Still willing to trade anything/everything for a Galor or J'H AS

    I haven't seen any Galors yet, but then I haven't played much since this fiasco began. I wouldn't mind getting one myself, but I'd be more excited if it was A.) a Keldon or B.) any Romulan ship. :D

    I really thought this was going to be a "It's a conspiracy, there are no Galors actually dropping, contrary to global announcements" thread.

    /Disappointed. One to beam up please.

    I traded in 10 bits of rare salavage and tech that I did not need since I have both MK-11 sets and all my MK-11 weapons already. I got nothing but green uncommon boxes from Commander Roxy.

    I am unwilling to trade my Prototype Salvage and EDC's at this time. I could if I wanted to and could get about 20 more tries, but I think I will hold off.

    Cryptic added the message confirming the players who get one and your still curious as to anyone getting one!

    Opened probably around 30 STF boxed and got 0 gold. Of course that could just as well be my luck again.

    I did get a gold box from a KA run later though. It contained a 10,000 CXP bonus item.
