    I still cannot understand why they removed fleet marks from that place. The best draw reward from the Tholian Rep are the new EV ground sets. And what on earth would I want them for now as when I can get them (the mk 12s) I am all done grinding nukara marks.

    That is only on the Fed side and you need a high enough diplomatic rank and you will still need to travel a little to beam down to do the missions if I am not mistaken. A direct transwarp to the exact location regardless of what side your on and available without having to do anything special would be nice.

    Why don't you just take the episode "Spin the wheel" and spend 500 EC to transwarp there? It puts you right next to Nukara.

    i thing just about every one on this feel the same way as i do feel about the whole que system being not fun in one way or another.

    i stopped goign to nutukia a long time ago becaue th efleet mark were removed. also because the space suit are not the best general armor so changing out the armor has aways been a pain to go change. it would be helpful if there could be a primary armor personal armor slot and a secondary armor slot for a space suit.

    now with adding almost totally useless que system nutukia is now a hole lot less fun.

    how about adding a second set of missions that are not lock behind ques so the the people that like picking and choosing what to do to have fun and where to go have fun in star trek online.

    the ques are most useless at times of day that very few people are playing star trek or when the ques are totally full.

    Maybe they didn't like how people were beating the missions by putting together groups of 10 and zerg-rushing everything? Though personally I enjoyed doing it that way, since otherwise ground combat is a pain in the rear.

    With the efficiency of the queue system you can instantly arrive at your location, complete your task, collect your earnings, and disengage without using any verbal communication at all.

    Yeah, the Fleet Marks were hecka nice seeing as how u need a ton for heavy fleet projects.

    And the 2ndary armor slot (like the weapons) is a great idea. Nice switch from EV to Armor.

    And like allot ppl have said, live action kombat & kickin butt with friends/larg group of ppl is just fun. I would think the new system is more of a downgrade then an upgrade. Backwards progress

    Nukara lost me when they removed the fleet marks.....now there's even more reason to stay far, far away.

    maybe the should change it to a choice of fleet or nukara marks?

    I would propose a hybrid system. The way my system would work is, you would have to go to the start location to be able to queue.

    For example: I want to do the hard Nukara missions. I go to Nukara, don my EV suit, go to the mission door and queue for a run. Same would be for STFs.

    I would also propose to bring back the old extended STFs and add some additional rewards for those that chose to run them.

    I like the sound of that.

    There is, at least for Nukara.

    For Nukara Prime just use the K-7 transwarp.

    Take the mission "Spin the wheel", transwarp for 500 credits to drozana, much closer...

    I have to agree. I liked the hard missions on Nukura and the PVE que is terrible. I draft too many bad players to make the mission fun. I miss taking my BOFFs on the hard missions. That was a blast!

    I think they ought to add the old mission back to Nukara so you can launch a mission with using the PVE que.

    Never knew that they awarded Fleet Marks from Nukura as I was not playing when they still awarded them. Funny that Defera is more Fleet Mark centric, as you get more of them than the Omega Marks from completing the quests there. At this stage I am more interested in the Omega Marks as I do not belong to a Fleet but still have a nice reserve of Fleet for when the day comes.

    Actually, I am equipped with the Shattering Harmonics ground set from the Nukura rep and use that when running the Defera quests. The sword cuts through the Borgs with ease, throw in a Plasma Grenade or two and use the MK XII Anti-Borg Assault rifle when needed and they go down in droves. I am a bit squishy on damage but just re-gen and wade back in.

    Though I haven't been on Nukura in a few weeks, it was pretty crowded most of the time when I ran the missions there. Never used the PvE queues for Nukura though.

    Odd to think where I stand on this.

    On one hand, the PvE Que replacement is terrible. Those missions went from moderately fun zergfest to painfully annoying and convoluted single-group que, which inherited all of the problems with barely a convenience.

    Access from the other side of the galaxy is bittersweet when missions frequently fail due to balancing shortcomings. Neither of these missions are friendly to how they've been designed and there is, literally, a large element of plain dumb luck involved in getting it done.

    On the other hand, it's easier to just punch through a round of mediums and call it a day.

    Perhaps that was the point.
