That moment I saw the patch notes where they un-restricted universal consoles from their original ships. I lol'd.
And I keep on lol'ing everytime they add new, more powerful consoles.
I lol'd when they made Romulans an alignable faction.
I lol'd when I found out how outrageously OP Romulans were for damage dealing.
I lol'd when they posted Naz's guest blog at just about the same time that most of us Pandas gave up on STO PvP (at least temporarily, though I feel it may be permanent in my case. I can't afford to keep up and don't have the time nor the desire to grind).
Finally, I lol'd the first time I head-shotted an Atlas with a Thunderbolt.
Join a match with a semi-premade with 2 cloak hunters, an escort, a vaper and a fawboat
End up being vs the Inner Circle guys on all vapers.
The very first engagement sees five people die in about four seconds, 3 of them, 2 of us, due to one of the Palisades Antiproton feedback thing.
Was pretty hilarious.
Also. Another match tonight was pretty much pre vs pre, and for the very first time in my entire time playing STO, one guy on their team was all 15 of our kills.

Congrats. That is pretty rare thing to happen, don't think I've ever had it either. It's basically the PvP equal of getting a bug ship.
I remain empathetic to the concerns of my community, but do me a favor and lay off the god damn name calling and petty remarks. It will get you nowhere.
I must admit, respect points to Trendy for laying down the law like that.

I like the one where we were on our Klingons and we made you guys rage quit after 5 kills.
well... to be fair, the defiant was one of the original p2w ships :P
It was P2, but was it W? I remember when it launched, Tactical Team was useless. Anyone still remember those times, when TT was a bad joke and even 2 ensign tacts where basically useless?
Whatever it is, it is a hero ship.

Vaping half a team in a couple shots with my Guramba Death Star Laser.
And then getting the whole enemy team to fire at me.
Ouch.
But totally worth it.

Missing the good ol' days of PvP: Legacy of Romulus to Season 9 My List of Useful Links, Recently Updated November 25 2017!
Yesterday I had a hilarious encounter in Ker'rat. I was flying with a good friend, with a rather new character (no rep/fleet stuff) in my Defiant Retrofit, doing a bit of farming and having good fights with the klinks around.
I got them couple of times, they got me couple of times, all in good fun and sportsmanship.
We were fighting the last klinks at the kdf side of Ker'rat, fighting a darn good mine/torp laying bop and another kdf which did good spike. My daily popped up and said it was finished.
We were ready to head out to Defera (for the FM's obviously) until my eye spotted something; hey, cool! Someone from HoBo (always a good fight), let's do one last run...
As I said; my char is pretty new, no rep or fleet stuff yet. I had it setup as a drain escort, having the obvious phased polarons, leech, etc.
That guy went totally mad, first after throwing all his cheese at me (it was a bunch , let me tell you that) he totally went berserk:
[3/7 6:49] [Tell] ****: you piece of **** i just warped in and you try to spawn kill me
[3/7 6:50] [Tell] To ****: Whahaha, thanks, my warpcore already had a shortage of klink tears! XD
[3/7 6:50] [Tell] ****: you ****ed up big time
[3/7 6:51] [Tell] To ****: Go and whine somewhere else, if you want to farm, go do foundry missions, if you want to pvp, you go to kerrat, now I'm putting you on ignore, see ya
I laughed so hard, my wife asked me what I was doing . These things make me lol.
That's quite the paradox, how could you nerf nerf when the nerf is nerfed. But how would the nerf be nerfed when the nerf is nerfed? This allows the nerf not to be nerfed since the nerf is nerfed? But if the nerf isn't nerfed, it could still nerf nerfs. But as soon as the nerf is nerfed, the nerf power is lost. So paradoxally it the nerf nerf lost its nerf, while it's still nerfed, which cannot be because the nerf was unable to nerf.

T'lilu SCI./Dxxdavid TAK./STO Inner Circle *** R.I.P. ***
I was in a non-fleet T'varo retrofit with a torp/mine build, Breen cluster torp and a quantum torp with high damage. My buddy was in a scimitar.
He takes on 2 oddys who are spamming FAW. They go for him. He spawns elite drone ships. The Oddys end up shooting each other. He fires the thalaron gun just for kicks, and they eventually manage to pop him just AFTER it shoots.
So now their shields are down and they're at half HP. And my Breen cluster torp hits, followed shortly by a torp scatter 3 crit.
Back a few months ago me and a fleetie did a 1v1. She was bragging about her Gal X, that she could tank anything. So I grab my Vesta because at the time it was the best ship I had (in fact it was the only ship I had capable of any meaningful damage at the time).
So we meet in the middle of the cracked planetoid, and 3 seconds later she's gone. Rinse and repeat till I find her spawn point.
She spawns, launches fighters, APA, CSV2, BOOM all gone.
She spawns, launches fighters, GW3, open fire, BOOM all gone
She spawns, launches fighters and attacks, I wait till my fore shields fall, TT, CSV2, quantum phaser, BOOM.
Then to be fair I go out of range, and launch my elite scorps. Well imagine the look on my face when 3 fighters are eating her alive. After nearly dieing and pulling it together she takes out those fighters so I give her a full six. BOOM, she's down again.
Then a friend who came to watch (and is loling with me) says I want to try. So I back off, he parks his Avenger in front of the spawn point, and does the same as me a few times over.
She was a good sport about it, but till this day she won't 1v1 me anymore, or let me teach her how to not die instantly. She claims she's gotten a lot better but still won't allow a rematch.

By a guy running t5 rommie cloak, feign death thing, ams, and of all things that photonic displacement console.
Oh and he was on a rommie toon.
That's a lol.
:eek:
I bet the guy waited for his Tac Fleet each time before trying to attack as well.
not sure...
he vaped me once tho.... it was a good hit too.
but then....the trolling...
and then the horrible timing on his buffs within 5k made it easy for me to.....
RSP......
tractor....and kill him.
and thats the end of that story...i guess...lol

Gotta love when people unload everything on that shield and it hits them right back in the face.
