Hello to all members,
Are Infected: The Conduit mission become much harder from few days ago?
I mean that Nanite Spheres now spawning nonstop from moment when you destroy 4 Nanite Generators. My option is that now mission is too hard while Spheres is re-spawning!!
It been quite easy now is too hard (my random team win in it for last time before 3-4 days ago)

Don't do it with random pubs, join up with some guys in the EliteSTF channel.

This is NOT a criticism of team mates btw, just my observation. Either way, its a game and whether it takes me 5 min or 20 min to complete the same level matters little to me providingteam mates don't bail part way through or go AFK.
See my other post for issues i have had since....and i spent 4 days upping my klingon from 21st to 41st to on way to 44th to try omega with kling's
my feds 50th and ive seen some pretty bad pve's but i didnt quit i even complained here about it, why if two people quit right away should the rest of us NON quiters get a 1 hr ban.....anyhow
so i join a new fleet and now i can't play my kling....but ya omega is same as always as far as my fed one can tell.
if you get one or two people that A) aren't loaded to do battle with borg
C) quit
well it gets a load harder
we did the scimitar wiht two people once...i just went nuts and postally attacked it with the other guy.....
OH and sometimes people disconnect so its not always they booking it.
OH and you will have fun if that scimitar on the other level starts chasing you...lol
Yes it definitely got AI behavior + spawning changes. BUT WE DON'T GOT PATCH NOTES OF THIS CHANGES!!
My option is that originally this mission been very easy but now is too hard for same award. (IT IS VERY HARD TO PASS IF YOU DON'T GOT OR HAVE TEAM WITH XP AND RIGHT SHIPS)
So I think that will be best if ST ONLINE staff CAN programing map, on way that it recognize the type of ship which going to play matches and modify Spheres parameters to match it.
nah, its actually still the easiest STF, here is a tip, if you're flying a regular FED cruiser or KDF cruiser with beams (judging by how you think its "hard", you probably are), don't, get an escort or a carrier, and do some decent DPS, if you still want to fly a cruiser anyway, get an excelsior or a regent(fleet version preferably) at least, the tanking capacity of a cruiser is almost meaningless in a STFs atm, everything is damage, damage, damage.
...
You know, I ran this 20 minutes ago with a full team of beamboat cruisers. We cleared it with optional and a good 2 minutes left on the timer.
Sorry mate, it isn't any harder. Still TRIBBLE easy.
To the OP: Reason for no patch notes = there was no patch and no changes as a result.
The Karfi driver who sent his frigates and focused fire on the left side front gate side generator while the rest of us were still killing the cube and he WOULD NOT STOP.
The guys that fire on undamageable targets when the generators are still up.
They arrogant goons who just won't grab the other generator that no one has fired on while double teaming or triple teaming someone else's generator.
The fool who then trash talks instead of taking advice after doing one of the above.
The problem is the players. The mission is the same

Like I said, it could be a fluke, but it raised an eyebrow nonetheless.

welcome to the club. I was hated out from my fleet just because I clearly was better than them and aimed higher (no arrogance here, they literally said that I was aiming too high, lol), and I wasnt afraid to talk my mind when they were bad (hell one time I took out a whole side in KASE -with one guy on the probes but not doing anything else- while they killed a whole cube on the other ^^)
equipment wont guarantee success. just sayin...
to OP: no it did not get harder, it is easier if anything else (tho it might be simply seeing my improvemenets at work, lol)

You are correct, but the hundreds of sucessful eSTF runs it took to get them surely counts for something.

No, there has been no change. Nanite Spheres always did keep respawning if you took long enough to kill off the transformer, and there always has been a regular sphere with the group too.
When they start taking damage they run towards the Gate or Tac Cube.
You should not be coming within 10km of either Gate or Tac Cube until it's time to kill them and focus on just one of them while keeping the other farther than 10km. (Or out of line of fire)
I have seen 1000 day veterans with all the fancy gear of the interwebz, that spent all them days playing stfs and all that, yet they did no more than 4k dps. so I have to say, no dat dont matter either

Just wanted to say: I dig your Cardassian avatar.
I used to do this, but I stopped. Frankly after 300+ runs a lot of us can do STFs in our sleep. Now I intentionally stay in range of stuff that can kill me simply to keep me paying attention and making it a bit harder. It's fun trying to take the gate down whilst trying to tank the cube! Someone usually accidentally aggros it with a pet anyway so it's on the prowl. Instead of getting the group to change focus to the cube from the gate, just tank the cube and carry on as you were :P
Keeps you in the edge of your seat, frantically mashing hazard emitters and TT1 to try and keep your shields and hull up - I recommend you try it if you're bored with ISE.
OP: I sincerely doubt it, you probably just had a few groups.
Kirk's Protege.
I use Advanced Escort with MVAM, here is details - almost all items in my ship is rare expect is Torpedoes and set items
2x [Dominion Polaron Dual Cannon Mk XI]
2x [Rapid Reload Transphasic Torpedo Launcher Mk XI]
1x [Polarized Disruptor Turret Mk XI]
1x [Polarized Disruptor Turret Mk X]
1x [Borg Cutting Beam Mk XII]
I know that this not too powerful weapons in game (that would be better if I buy some very rare mk XII weapons from Fleet store but I can do that now because I spare Dilithium for Borg or MACO Mk XII set)
[Jem'Hadar Deflector Dish Mk XI]
[Jem'Hadar Combat Impulse Engines Mk XI]
[Jem'Hadar Resilient Shields Mk XI]
[Console Engineering - Monotanium Alloy Mk XI]
[Console Engineering - Ablative Hull Armor Mk XI]
[Console - Science -MVAM]
[Console - Science - Shield Emitter Amplifier Mk XI]
[Console - Science - Emitter Array Mk XI]
[Console - Tactical - Universal - Assimilated Module]
2x [Console - Tactical - Transphasic Compressor Mk XI]
[Console - Tactical - Polaron Phase Modulator Mk X]
Stick with one energy type, polarized disruptors are disruptors not polarons.
Drop both Transphasic Compressors and add 2 more Polaron Phase Modulators.
I'd also drop the MVAM console for the Assimilated Module (adding yet another Polaron console in it's place in the tactical slots). Furthermore I'd also drop the Shield Emitter Amplifier for the [Console - Universal - Zero Point Energy Conduit] from the Romulan Reputation. Also replacing the Emitter Array with a Field Generator is something you should consider.
Thx for suggestions mav75 I will try it
