[UPDATE] Hey folks, looks like I made a mistake - Fleet Support Duty Officer Packs are not being discontinued after this promotion. Really sorry about any confusion!

    Nice. I've been expecting this for a few weeks now. I hope they fall into my price-range but it seems pretty unlikely :P

    Not going higher than 200m. If not, I'll stick with my JHEC :D

    Why would there be any Dreadnough rage?

    From now until server maintenance during the morning (PDT) of Thursday, March 28, 2013, every Fleet Support Duty Officer Pack you open will also* include either 10 Lobi Crystals or a Jem'Hadar Attack Ship**!


    Mmmmm lobi @ roughly the same price as a dropbox key per crystal + the chance to win a bug.

    Can't beat that.

    EXCLUSIVE: As an added bonus for owners of a Jem?Hadar Attack Ship, there is a Hangar item available for use exclusively for the Jem?Hadar Dreadnought Carrier (available for purchase in the Lobi Store). Scaling quality levels of these items will be available for purchase from the Shipyard Store, Dilithium Store, or Fleet Store only if you have obtained the both the Jem?Hadar Attack Ship and Jem?Hadar Dreadnought Carrier.

    For those who keep demanding Cryptic change their policy on the pets, just got their answer.

    No

    Ya, I'm thinking 5 should do it, but if I don't win the bug at least 35 o's should give me a decent chance at a conn officer or 2 PLUS the 50 lobi.

    Am wondering if the 'big' sale is yet to come, after we all blow our wads in this sale.

    Having a storewide 20% off sale at the end of this sale would be Genius!! - Think about it - sooo many people spending all their saved up Zen on this promo - then that sale would be sure to wipe out most of the stockpiled Zen left in people's accounts. Come May people would need to start buying Zen in large quantities again.

    Just opened 20,000 Zen worth of Fleet packs - No Attack Ship

    This was the one and only time I would spend such money. I will not be doing so again when Cryptic have stacked the odds heavily against the player.

    Cryptic have used this situation to flip off the players who own the Dreadnaught and wanted to be able to use the Attack Ship pets. Owning the Attack ship will allow access to a whole range of fighters including a fleet version.

    Oh but wait... this fleet support pack gives you a chance at owning an Attack Ship and sets you on the path to getting the lobi to buy a Dreadnaught. Of course, once you have the Dreadnaught your back to square one with the lottery to get the attack ship.

    Really classy move by Cryptic.

    I've spent almost $60 in keys and whatever EC cost for Lockboxes that don't drop anymore for a Galor and nothing ... That's proably not enough but man, that's my fault.

    No one needs this ship, much like I don't need the Galor. But if I want the Galor then I can't blame Cryptic for anything.

    Buy keys, sell keys on exchange for EC, buy attack ship with EC.

    ...so you have about 5000 lobi, right ?
    So each KDF warriors skirt costs 100 lobi, resold on the exchange for 10 mil ea would give you about enough to buy a bugship (500 mil ec).

    ...That is IF you don't collapse your own market.
    :cool:

    Sry for your misfortune but those doffs are worth something as well as the loot from those boxes.

    I opened some boxes and got no lobi and this has happened to at least another person in my fleet.

    The boxes are supposed to have 10 lobi OR the attack ship - A box that yields no Lobi and no Attack ship should not be possible but it happened to me at least three times.

    Draw your own conclusions...

    More than 100 million... Started the day with 5 on the exchange at over 430 mill last I looked saw 21 posted lowest at 290 mill. I just counted over 25 of them awarded in the last 45 minutes so I'm sure the price will go even lower. The Doff packs were 8 mill at 1pm today and now are 4.3 mill... so its driving down prices across the board.

    Just need to read the fine print...nowhere does it state that each pack will provide 10 lobi...
