Romulan faction eliglble traits - Species

breadandcircuses

Okay everyone, one of the problems with the new "Preset Philosophy" is that, thanks to removing trait selection from character creation, you have no idea what traits a species is eligible to choose for traits. Sure, you know you get the 4 shown, but what can you actually choose once you enter the game, rank up and/or respec?

Well, since the list is nowhere to be found in character creation, I'm going to do the work for you. Consider this my feedback on what is missing from character creation as well as a public service. Cheers!

[Edit] The list of traits by career can be found here: Romulan faction eligible traits - Career

Nice job!

I'll be honest, I started with the easy one... Fed listing will be a pain in the aft. That, and folks will be making a lot of Romulan faction characters if they haven't already.

Also note that this does not get into the practical functionality of the various traits. For example, Creative claims to affect kit power damage and all heals; it does not work that way. I used Tribble to cycle with/without and found that it will not apply to any turret, drone, explosive, generator, or Reroute Power to Shields. This may be fixed at a later date, of course, but that's up to the devs.

That sucks I just gave my engineers that trait and it's useless, well that was a waste. Why offer it if it's useless.

Thank you so much! This is really helpful! Hopefully someone will be able to do this with the available Liberated Borg Romulan traits too.

Yeah, unfortunately I haven't purchased any of the premium species, but I will be doing the KDF next since they have a whole new set of missions starting at level 1. That, and the KDF still has fewer species than the Federation.

Well on the upside, it looks like they can only do the same traits as Fed and Klingon Liberated Borg, which means they don't even get Singularity Specialist. If you're playing Romulans and want the Efficient Trait bonus, get the Liberated Borg Reman officer. You're better off having the Romulan traits IMO.

Actually, in tinkering about I found that there is a solution if you find that you have issues with traits and have already burned your free Trait Respec.

One of the Tal Shiar Lock Box prize items is a Genetic Resequencer reward pack. If you use one to unlock one of the unique traits they provide, there is also a Trait Respec included. Just buy the cheapest one you see on the Exchange; be aware, however, that you can only use each type of Genetic Resequencer once.

Thanks for the info, its definitely helped my character choice. My tribble character never even got close to level 50, and I couldn't create a reman at the time.

With the traits, at level 50 do we get to pick all nine from the list, like going all space traits? Do we have to pick career traits and ground traits?

Thanks again for the info.

Working as intended... turrets grenades drones generators mines, those abilities do not do direct damage or heal. They create another object that does damage/heal. reroute power also is not considered a shield heal.

fuse armor may get a boost since it does dmg if you max it out... otherwise the only class I think that gets any dmg benefit would be science with their rad and flame attack.

it does help with hypos... yeah I know.

they should make it so creative boosts buffs and debuffs. otherwise outside of science players... creative is only good to boost your hypos when used.
