Cryptic: A plea regarding the Dahar Master rank

shpoksshpoks Member Posts: 6,967 Arc User
edited September 2014 in Klingon Discussion
Well, since the latest blog by Cpt.Geko made it official, I thought I would make this very important request to the devs. official as well. At Tier 60, the KDF players will have the rank of Dahar Master!

So my humble request is the following - please, please, make the Dahar Master long overcoat that the Dahar Master NPCs wear throughout the game, popularily referred to as the Dahar Master pimp coat:D, availible in any way possible with 'Delta Rising'. Come on devs., I'm sure you all are well aware just how popular and how requested this piece of clothing has been amongst the ranks of the KDF for many years now. There is no better moment of bringing this to us than the launch of an expansion which enables us to reach the Dahar Master rank as players. The overcoat is awesome looking and I'm 100% sure that every KDF player would want one, it has been amongst the most sought after items by KDF players for a long long time now.

TL;DR - Devs please make the Dahar Master overcoat that NPCs wear availible for the players with 'Delta Rising'. Obtainable in any way possible, regardless, just allow us - the newly promoted Dahar Masters to have our grand-prize garment.

    I totally back this idea. I'd love that long coat! :)

    The Dahar Master is supposed to be a weapons master of some sort. Any time I recall running into one as an NPC, it dual-wields pistols or is nigh unstoppable with a sword, etc...

    I think that befitting this new rank and along with these new abilities, Cryptic should allow us a third active weapon slot. This would allow us to be that true weapon master, and carry our favored weapon into battle (sword, pistol, etc) without losing the practical side of things (KHG pulsewave for set, sniper rifle for picking off far targets, or maybe KHG+melee <-- those are the most practical combinations). Then we could enable the visual on this third weapon to have our pistols or our batleth showing while using others.

    Oh please please make this happen. I have dreamed on walking the Hall of Heroes as well as the streets of Qo'Nos in one of these pimp coats since 2010!

    I can't think of a single thing in game that I could want more than that. And I willing to do any amount of grinding to get it done.

    Yeah this has to be a must with the addition of the rank. It would also be cool if you could add the klingon melee weapons that the NPCs enjoy like the Mek'leth and the D'k tahg knife.

    Thanks Smirk! :)

    If this makes it to holodeck with 'Delta Rising', in absence of actual bloodwine, I'll send you a crate of the best beer we've got here. :D (given international shipping laws permit it)

    If they don't give it to us. I'd call it one of the biggest ripoffs in STO.

    How can you be a Dahar Master and NOT have the coat? Like Zorro without the mask, Superman without his cape!

    No doubt the costume, the melee weapons, and such should have been in the game long ago.

    Although I admire Smirk and I am diehard KDF to the teeth for many years now in this game. They are probally going to laugh at him and tell him its never going to happen.

    Atleast those bio-torpedoes and mines from the last rep along with the projectile traits combined make the b'rel enhanced battle cloak no longer a gimmick.

    Overall this is my view on X2 and the KDF on whats being said. If they can get those melee weapons, the overcoat for dahar master, a T6 negh'var and T6 bop... I'd praise X2 through the roof but if the only changes to the KDF are just text and nothing else I'd have to give them a klingon version of an octopus with 8 thumbs down.

    I totally agree with the OP.

    As for how to attain it? It should simply be a free unlock rewarded upon rank-up. Similar to how Feds get a free Vice Admiral Jacket, KDF should get a free Dahar Master uniform (top).

    When KDF reach Lieutenant General (equal to a Fed Vice Admiral), they do not currently get any costume unlock. That being said, if KDF get a free Dahar Master costume, I have no problem with Feds (and Romulans) ALSO getting free unlocks at L60.

    Yeah I know but sometimes there is hope lol.

    I know about how they used to do the unlock was there heh. For leveling purposes it was fleshed out with LoR its just about the c-store and fleet ships that they never finished on and as well never put all the klingon weapons in the game like melee and ritual weapons and the fleet disruptors don't resemble classic klingon weaponry too much but same can be said about the fed side too.

    I guess only thing we can say now is just because ppl have the dahar master rank does not mean they are of any caliber of anything to guard anything except the bloodwine fountain.

    it was not referring to any movies in any way its the lryics to a jim croce song as follows


    You don't tug on Superman's cape
    You don't spit into the wind
    You don't pull the mask off that old Lone Ranger
    And you don't mess around with Jim

    I'm glad that this idea picked up support, though I can't say I didn't expected. I personally know that this item has been on the most KDF players wishlists since it appeared in STO.

    I hope the devs. have enough foresight, especially if they're about to be reminded by Smirk, to make this availible even as a C-Store purchase for the KDF in 'Delta Rising'. Sometimes small details go a long way to show care for a part of the playerbase and it'll certainly be apreciated by the red faction's players forever.

    I have one character partially inspired by Chang, that flies a B'rel and was intended to be a Dahar Master (unlike my main who is inspired by Martok and is a General) - so I was very happy to find out the new rank would actually be - "Dahar Master", and as expected - he really needs to lok the part now. :D The long coat really must happen now, it would make things so complete in a sense.

    Personally, I still think that Dahar Master coat should have been given as the Marauding unlock. Starfleet did get that fancy Diplomat uniform. Why not KDF? The Dahar Master coat would have been PERFECT for a Marauding uniform unlock.
