Lost emergency hologram r&d explosives expert and not sure how to replace

uryenserellont

I don't remember where I got it from (nor any of these white r&d holograms I have. There are a bunch) and there are none on the exchange with r&d.

I'm not even sure what an r&d explosives expert is used for.

How do I replace these mysterious white r&d emergency holograms? They're not listed in the replicator and I can't find any on the exchange.

I believe you can get them from the DOFF store at the academy. The same place you get the Doff missions that give you new officers, there is a contact that has a STORE that you can buy doffs from. If not at that contact then perhaps one of the others. I KNOW I have seen a way to replace them, not sure if its still available, but at one point it was. Try the academy and see what happens.

No the store has the ones purchased from commendation ranks. I've never seen r&d doffs for sale anywhere. Maybe I just haven't looked in the right place.

Either way, it seems the r&d explosives expert is useless anyway so no big loss.

The white/common emergency R&D DOFFs were given to characters when the R&D revamp launched. Characters got a box with 18 or so of them and afaik they were all bound to character.
Best use for them is in the "permit crippled warrior to perform the hegh'bat as they do not have the necessary trait to create the unique R&D projects and better quality ones are not really that expensive on the exchange.

Actually, they have NO traits of any kind. So they can't do the good R&D projects, and they don't work well for real doff missions. I personally send them on officer exchanges to places like Cardassia, Bajor, or Ferasa. so what if I might get a green chef? Those are more useful.
