What this does is unlock another possible trait you can get.
I.e Your character still keeps the same amount of traits they already have.....this just unlocks one of the additional traits that you can then use instead of a differing one.
The trait respec is to of course allow you to alter your traits to use this new one...if you already have selected your traits.
In no-way shape or form is this giving you another trait slot....its only adding an optional one that your race may not have had access to.
sooo....not pay to win...pay to get options that you probably already had if you played the game....or maybe pay to get some option you where a bit lazy to get for your character.
Power without Perception is Spiritually useless and therefore of no true value.
The Tal Shiar Lock Box is our best lock box yet! Read more to see images of all the items that you have the possibility of winning or buying from the Lobi store.
Really Lets have a run down on the prizes shall we.
Tal Shiar Adapted Destroyer
Ok the star prize a ship based on the Narada from ST 2009 with the same weapon. A ShipI
have only seen a couple of times. Now hardly seen since the Scimitar was released and IMO good riddance as it is ugly.
Cross-Faction Starship Console
Okay so the Feds and rom Fed get Plasmonic Leech and KDF/KDF Roms get Ionised gas sensor.
The feds get a great console while KDF get the short end of the stick and worst console in game.
Mirror Universe Star or Assault Cruiser (Fed),Mirror Universe Vor'cha Battle Cruiser (KDF) And Mirror Universe Ha'apax Advanced Warbird (Rom)
Apart from the Rom ship All these other ones have been recieved in the past I got at least 3 star cruisers and assault cruisers and Vorcha when they were released before with the Tholian Lockbox and quite frankly Apart from the star cruiser which I use. There not the best ships to own.
Genetic Resequencers Dissasember, Precise, Helmsman, Conduit
Me personally would not use these so will end up on the exchange so in other words Trash
25,000 Fleet Bonus Pool & 5,000 Fleet bonus Pool and 100 Fleet bonus Pool
Useless junk
VIP Mining Customer and Preferred mining Customer
Okay this is useful when you want to go to the Vlugta mining asteroid but soon this will be obsolete.
10,000 CXP Bonus Pool & 2000 CXP Bonus Pool
More useless Junk
Tal Shiar Command Code
These were a mistake with the temporal lockbox. you have a small chance of being successful
Nanite Disruptor Weapons Pack
A Random weapon Either a Space weapons which you will need more than one to avoid any kind of penalty or a ground weapon which sometimes can be useful.
Reinforcement Duty Pack And Fleet Support Duty Officer Mini-Pack
Another useless prize
So this is quite honestly the worst lockbox you have released the only reason you think it is so popular is because so many people wanted the Narada ship until the Scimitar was released. I believe it is time for a new lockbox with Better prizes this time.

Sounds to me like you need to learn how space weapons work in this game. A mix of Nanite and regular disruptors is flat out superior to all of either type.

I know how to use weapons and use a combination of phased tetryon and tetryon weapons. However most weapons give a penalty if you don't use all the same type. Still don't think this weapon is worth the amount of keys you could use in trying to get one.

Lock boxes are the biggest money making 'scam' in gaming. Sorry Cryptic but you guys are making money hand over fist on this because you send out public messages across the screen telling everyone that people are constantly winning these rare ships, when in reality the chances of winning them is way smaller than people believe it is. It can cost someone hundreds of dollars or more to win one of these ships.
ya what ever happened to the more then 4 lobi prize
why the "ultra hidden" odds
(reason for not legally being an online gambling slot machine, it gives an item and matches what they are selling it for?
it will still legally be online gambling if the "global.payout" does not equal or excel the total for all who spent vs. the payout)
and why NOT make it a legacy feature
(wait, so you have to by them for EC on exchange to get what you will ALREADY have should it be a legacy unlock by acquisition, same ship for all, so it is a matter of how much TIME will go into to circumventing this flaw :S)
200 keys for 800 lobi (base), do the math, uh right ... :S
"insane" is an accurate assumption
btw, i now sell keys on exchange, why bother going for a "fool's ship" when someone will sell them at about 1/5th the price for ec, from a fool... lol
i remember the "good ole' days" in SL when everyone had their own casino, till the F.B.I. literally stepped in on LL ...
now if this was something like WoW, you would see something like "you found an unknown Isolinear chip that contains a distress signal to an unknown location, send a doff to decipher it?" (select yes)
a day goes by, "(some doff) found out that this was a top secret ship and you now have access to (some map)"
you go there, attempt to prevent them from scuttling the ship or taking it, and fight for it, and then claim it
(2 day repair team to bring it on line "doff mission")
then you go to an admiral "we found this ship is now in perfect working order, and you have the salvage rights, congrats"
if only ships dropped in an exciting way off STF bosses ... rofl
Seeing a Mirror Universe Romulan starship gives me pause. All we ever knew about Mirror Romulans is that they were not a part of the Alliance or Terran Empire. Might STO be prepared to offer us a story mission which might give us a peek into who they really are?
