Omega reputation: no pulsewave?

diogene0

I've been suprised to notice that the only anti-borg valuable weapon, which is the pulsewave, isn't available in the omega reputation store. There is no "pulsewave" unlock. Instead of that devs are encouraging people to buy anti borg miniguns. Are they trying to sabotage ground STFs or what? We've got enough noobs using miniguns everywhere, stfs are the last place where we want to see people using this TRIBBLE. :P

Please, add some decent pulsewaves. The only one we have as fed is the adapted maco, which is a T5 one. No one can get it until he's completely done with STFs and it doesn't really make sense.

Elite fleet pulsewave = best pulsewave in the game. Only downside is if you run MACO rifle. They are both phaser so there are some issues with adaptation.

Maybe, and i don't need that but i'm rather thinking to new chars and players. We used to have anti borg pulsewaves and STFs were fine, because it was easy to convince people to buy one on DS9. Now... You have to tell them they should join a fleet to buy stuff or that they should use the exchange not to be a burden in elite instances. Really, some decent Mk XI pulsewaves at omega T2 rep would have been welcome.

The Elites are great. But as for the "Advanced"?

The Antiproton Fleet Pulsewave Crit x is good, yes. BUT:

DMGx3 = LOL fail.

If you can find a mk xii with CritD and CritH modifiers, it will curbstomp the fleet ones, hands down.

A little known insanely effective pulsewave (and by posting this up I will probably drive prices through the roof), phased tetryon pulsewave assault. You get the run-speed reduction, which slows the borg down even more, you get the expose, the possible stun, and the tetryon shield proc (which we all know is VERY important in ESTFs with the hardened shields the borg have).

I got one, thought it wasn't that great, used something else, but went back to the phased tetryon. My main and my alts all have mk XI [critd] [crth] pulsewaves. The best part is that they aren't one trick pony weapons. Once the target has no more shields you're probably figuring that "oh wells, now it sucks" but when you add in the phaser proc too, it's gold.

It's also great for adaptation since you are using tetryon and phaser weapons. So if they adapt to your maco rifle, you swear, switch to your phased tet shotgun, and go in guns blazing.

Just my 2 ECs (average price on those are 40-100k ecs on the exchange btw).
