Does Acamar have Acamarians?
Will our brains get slowly fried if we beam down to the surface of Galorndon Core?
My character Tsin'xing
Also was wondering when the reputation stores were going to be added any update on what build those are in?
soo.... Got Acamarians?

Haven't finished logging in yet after patch to see if it did or not but if its not it might be held off due to the feedback that most of the playerbase didn't like the idea of it but to me its better since my inventories and banks are always so slam packed with all these currencies that I'm welcoming how it may seem like more currencies... Its actually less and those of us that have the issue I do will see how it was for the better.
How about some dilithium for a change? Even some small amount?
My character Tsin'xing
Any chance you could change the entry from showing how many are needed for a pve queue to start to how many are currently queued and how many are waiting, like it is on Holodeck?
I really like the ability to tell how close any particular queue is to starting. I joined one of the older fleet queues once because I had noticed it was sitting at 1 short of starting for awhile and decided I would take a look. i can't do that anymore and am not likely to queue for a mission requiring 20 people if I can't tell how many people are currently waiting for more. Am I the only one waiting? Do we need just one more? The Holodeck queue lets you know but the Tribble queue gives you no idea.
You guys need to understand that 10% and 10 stacks still means that the shield which has insignificant resists is worse off than using the borg regenerative shield. Literally. The regenerative shield heals up at higher rate DEPENDABLY than this 10% chance to stack 10 times. At least the borg shields have some sort of resists to boot.
Not to mention you will not get 10 stacks and associated shield HP that is boosted fast enough to even compensate for the shield hp lost to the 9 out of 10 shots that did not proc the shield.
The whole shield bonus concept is absurd mathematically and practically. Have you people even bothered to test it under controlled situations?
Here's an easier way to fix the reman shield: Make that 10% proc chance, 10 stack be shield resists to all energy type. Easy. Its the aegis equivalent but it works for shields not hull resists as the aegis does.
Also, the reman set plasma torpedo bonus needs to have the torpedo damage and speed increased by at least 25% . As it stands the reman bonus barely makes the heavy plasma torpedo any better... it is faster but it still isn't fast enough. For it to work at decent levels the heavy plasma torpedo should fly as fast as a chroniton torpedo.

Also notice you have made the changes to the maco, omega and honor guard sets. LOTS of fun!
Am really enjoying the new invasion zone. its HUGE!!
One thing i did notice is you seem to have had some fun with shield distribution doffs. They now just apply single heal to all faceings rather than a constant regen. Should really fix up the pvp balance once more if im reading it right.
The Reman set seems very weak for how hard it is to get. The hvy Plasma is still easy to shoot down and slow moving although it is faster then without the set. I am finding torpedo spread works better than hvy plasma with the set. Do not get me wrong I think the heavy plasma set bonus is great and on the right track just the defence and speed bonus could perhaps do with being a little higher.
Even with the set the only time heavy plasma seems to work is if I am point blank and let it hit me. If I go to the very first mission "Stranded in Space" and shot a heavy plasma at the first low powered cruisers chances are even with the set I will do 0 or very low damage.
I left some pics here:
