    Merged a bunch of these "Mirror Madness" threads together.

    Happy hunting, and darn your vigilance!

    We would have gotten away with if if it weren't for you meddling kids and your dog!

    Grumble grumble... :)

    I think it's time to come clean about the Mirror Event :) The first rule of information containment is to control the information flow yourself, wouldn't you agree? :)

    So... we're all curious about the Mirror Transporter Device :)

    Oh wait nvm those are just the commodity rewards for completing the mission, like crystalline shards.

    Ok, I promise on behalf of the entire community, we will keep snoping around and finding things we shouldn't! Oh and when is the new mirror invasion event going live!? Tell us smirk, tell us....

    When if he were to tell us, it would be REDACTED before it went up on the forums! ;)
    They say time is the fire in which we burn. Right now, Captain, my time is running out. We leave so many things unfinished in our lives... I know you understand.

    If you hunt through this whole thread, you will find an Easter Egg

    A Mirror Easter Egg anywho.

    Since this is the only Dev post in the entire thread, must've been something a player said.

    Which leads me to think something got exposed on Tribble.

    {Rushes off to search...}

    EDIT: Found it! :D 'Twas not on Tribble, though, per the source. Now you have a hint; happy hunting!

    It doesn't say when the event starts, but I'm guessing in the near future.

    Rewards:
    50,000 Dilithium Ore
    500 fleet marks
    250 reputation mark box for choice of marks
    and a very rare mirror duty officer

    :D:D:D

    It's gotta be this!
    Now that this is no longer showing under "INFO" tab it must be something that was live on Tribble at some point.. >.>

    Well, I just read through the entire thread and checked Holodeck and Tribble. I am at an impasse.... I have found NOTHING!!!! I am left to believe that the hint is the screenshot.

    THIS IS MADNESS
    Where is the mirror event!??
    I spend over $800 on this game for what? So you can remove not only the mirror event but ALL THE EVENTS?!
    SOME OF US HAVE CHARS TO LEVEL! HOW DOES THIS BENEFIT US?! SHAME! SHAME!

    You dont need mirror event to level characters. In fact, the mission itself is pretty stupid....

    Perhaps the new Mirror Event will be an ACTUAL event, a la the anniversary. Perhaps we will have to hide in the boxes so a mini-Q can't find us, or we will have to run away from a mini-Q! ;)

    Please no. One iteration of that nonsense was one too many.
    Arc is garbage. End of discussion.

    Please please please make the part of the event where you need to close the rifts require some sort of science powers.

    Please do not make just another DPS race.

    This mission has one big flaw:

    The 3d placement of the rifts. It would be long and annoying without this feature, but with the rifts spawning below and above you, you need to circle up in that wierd way that STO has for flying upwards or downwards.

    The old mission was much better, this one rather sucks. Classical case of breaking something that was working well.
    Let us wear Swimsuits on Foundry maps or bridges please! I would pay zen for that.

    I will take this mission any day. The previous MU was so boring.

    Agreed, the optional in the old one was something people would INTENTIONALLY fail simply because more pew-pew = more loot.

    this one can get crazy, I once got quadruple teamed by typhoons, but it's a lot of fun.... especially in A2B ships. Hehehe... :D

    I agree this one seems to have more strategy to it. With the station health being important and sci and cruisers being better for certain tasks. Though I only played a couple last night so that is just my initial impression.

    I will say I stopped doing the previous one a long time ago. I stopped because found it a tad boring with pew-pew and ignoring the secondary objectives.

    I have been trying for 3 day (night time and morning time) and the ques for the PVE mirror event is always full. Even after the server patch and restart. Did everyone zoom on. the patch even finished early and I went on before 9:30am. Am I doing something wrong?

    What time zone? I was on around 9 pm PST (GMT -7) got on within 5 minutes, run was done in about 15. Non elite.

    The old optionals did not have any bearing on the loot. They just weakened the adds.


    And how is the new one any different? I found it that closing the rifts is pointless.

    Its just easier to kill everything you see, just like in the old one. This is now just WAY slower and more boring.

    It'll be better and more fun if (at least) they increase spawn time of MU ships IMHO.

    that depends on whether you have 4 typhoons trying to smash you.... 1 or 2 is a minor problem..... I suppose part of the difference is in whether you're pugging or not. PUGs often have people who suck. If your team doesn't have the level of face-melting required then you need to close the portals or you'll get a low mark payout.

    Actually.... a large part of the mark payout of the event is for the portals.

    10 for the starbase HP (lowest point, not ending)
    5 for beating the boss timer
    I think up to 25 for closing portals in the first part.

    The most disastroud PUG I was ever in gave 17 I think.

    I'm not the only person who has noticed that they could swap the MU enemies out and replace them with Undine without changing anything except the briefing dialog and maybe the reward at the end. It'd make more sense, too.

    Not that they'd do something like that ;)

    You cynic! :P But I can see it happening... Possibly as part of the new FE that Season 9 will bring...

    Also, I had a PuG group that paid out about 17 marks too... I was terrified at just how bad some folk are...
