Tribble of Borg

crioijouls

Okay, so I finally decided to get the Tribble of Borg for when I want to go back to Borg ground missions on my Lv-60 character. But now, it's nowhere to be found on the C-Store for my other characters. Where'd it wander off to?

If you previously had a Tribble of Borg (account-wide) then look under "Legacy Unlock". If you are buying the "per character" version then look under "Personnel".

I don't feel like digging for old posts but it might actually be per-account, not per-character, as in, you buy it one time from the C-Store and that's it.

The Tribble of Borg which is available to purchase for 300 Zen is a single item purchase. You need to buy it on every character you want it on. You can also find it on the exchange as it's a tradeable item (though it doesn't go cheap).

The original Tribble of Borg (exact same stats but account wide) which was given out to those of us who took part in the first Tribble Testing Weekend, should be available under the 'Legacy' tab.

You can only purchase it from the C-Store once per account. I tried it myself, and none of my other characters have the option to buy it. And even the character I used to buy it doesn't have the option to buy another.

Ah ok, well that definitely sounds like a bug lol.

I've had the same issue for about 2 years now. After purchasing a Tribble of Borg from the c-store it was permanently removed for purchase. Even with tribbles getting their own category in the c-store, and with the c-store being more organized, with Delta Rising launch, I'm still not able to buy another.

I was not here when they gave away the ToB as an account wide unlock. This issue relates to the one you have to purchase for zen for each character. I still haven't seen a dev response to verify whether if this is a bug or if you are only allowed to buy 1 per account. The c-store description implied that you could buy as many as you want but only have 1 per character. The c-store description when I bought my ToB said it comes packed in a box and is bound when you open it but it didn't come in a box and was unbound until I equipped it.

Here are some threads dating back to about March 2012 for reference.

Here is the thread I posted in shortly after I purchased it http://sto-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?p=7101951#post7101951

Here is a link to my post (the links to screenshots still work) http://sto-forum.perfectworld.com/showpost.php?p=7105161&postcount=5 In this post I PROVE that after buying a Tribble of Borg it's removed from the c-store. You can see in the old screenshots that while *not* logged into the old Cryptic store website the ToB shows up. But after I log into the website it was removed. I also have a screenshot proving that it didn't come packed in a box by showing that it's listed under 'Personal Devices' in the exchange.

This issue is aggravating. One of the first responses when a new thread is created is "check under legacy unlocks in the c-store". What you clowns don't get is that that is only true for players who obtained a Tribble of Borg BEFORE the game went free-to-play.

No Tribble of Borg in 'Legacy Unlocks' http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c355/MonkeyGuts69/screenshot_2014-12-03-17-53-35_zps0e440c03.jpg~original

No Tribble of Borg in 'Personnel>Tribbles' either http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c355/MonkeyGuts69/screenshot_2014-12-03-17-53-59_zpsea154101.jpg~original

And here it is in the exchange http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c355/MonkeyGuts69/screenshot_2014-12-03-17-59-39_zpsaea11e3a.jpg~original Only 3 available under PERSONAL DEVICES starting at 18.5 million EC. I get so sick of players saying "just buy it from the exchange".

EVERYBODY UNDERSTAND THE SITUATION NOW? Because apparently some people just don't ****ing get that after buying a single Tribble of Borg from the c-store 2 years ago I can no longer buy any.
