Look at the current loot drops

Good items will soon be gone from the exchange

No ( free ) STF weapons or equipment

Stfs upgraded

The equipment from the story missions is better
Than the loot dropping that will be how you are
Equipped for your introduction to stfs

The tier system...............

If you look at it from this perspective we veteran players
Are Fat Cats with it made I'n the shade

My banks are full of 26.2 and STF gear as well as some
Uber goodies from the exchange

Poor noobs these guys will have it rough

XI purples are going for dirt cheap on the exchange because of the overflowing supply from Fleet actions. They are effectively near identical to the old Borg weapons because of the broken Borg proc. This is also causing blue MK XI consoles to drop in price.

Ultimately it's easier to get better weapons and consoles than ever before.

Try again.

I'll have to disagree about loot drops.

While levelling up with my current toon I got some pretty sweet gear from random drops, they lasted a while and outclassed most mission rewards.

And once I hit VA level I used the EC I gained selling all this loot for the weapons and consoles for my ship, and even weapons and personal shields for me and my Boffs. All bought on the exchange, and most of it rare quality.

loot drops are being added back to captains, battleships and dreadnoughts, and the loot rolls are coming back to STF's.
