Fleet Ships not Accountwide????

:eek:

I wanted to make a new toon and have a Fleet Galaxy Retrofit for that toon. So, I grinded enough Dilithium, bought four Fleet Ship Modules and now realized that my fleet isnt Tier IV yet. I have the 'money' but cant get the ship. :(

Then I tried to find out how to provide my fleet with the Doffs they need to make it to Tier IV. To say that it is complicated is an understatement. My head is still spinning from trying to find out how many white Doffs I get for a green Doff and why I cant make them give me tactical Doffs when I need them and..... I just gave up.

And now I read somewhere that the Fleet Ships are not even Accountwide. So I totally wasted my time.

But, the thing has a good side: I never spend a cent on STO and now I know that this was the right decision. Cause, I certainly would never trust my real money to a company that I cant trust with fake money.

Oh, and yes, I do know that this is my own fault. I should have read the fine print.

As I said, I am glad that I never spend real money on PWE, cause I am to stupid to trust them with my real money.

    You can always stick the ship modules into your account bank, or mail them to the new character once you've created it. I'm pretty sure the modules are not character-bound.
    You're right. The work here is very important.

    1 purple doff = 3 blue
    1 blue = 3 green
    1 green = 3 white

    So:
    1 purple = 27 white
    1 blue = 9 white

    You can buy white tactical DOFFs from your starbase for 750 FC each. Alternatively, you can buy access to a T4 starbase to get your ship for a couple of million EC (prices may vary).
    "Participation in PVP-related activities is so low on an hourly, daily, weekly, and monthly basis that we could in fact just completely take it out of STO and it would not impact the overall number of people [who] log in to the game and play in any significant way." -Gozer, Cryptic PvP Dev

    Fleet Ship Modules are not bound, which is why you can buy them on the exchange. You can put them into the account bank or mail them to yourself.
