looks more like a stabby weapon. any stats or effects info? would be nice if the unlock for the weapon is account wide so toons under 50 can claim since all these bonus items are different for each event.
Just wondering if this event will be 14 'Transporters' per Alt or a reduced number after achieving it for the first time on an Alt.
Guessing the former...
you need 14 due to the dil... per toon. still would be nice if the item was account unlock so folks who want to skip the farm on alts can claim it and pass up the dil if they choose.
I, too, would love to see the Mirror Invasion and Crystalline Cataclysm event rewards added to the Event Store. I was able to grind CC on my alts, but MI is impossible to do.

I half-expected something like the mirror invasion coming around the corner. It fits nicely next to the cardassian story revamp. And the new queues. Bring ooon the dil!
Not a lot of details on this agony rifle thingy in the article though...
Guess we'll see later. Worst case, when claiming it.

Yeah, it'd be nice if they carried over the Event Ship system to the Event Items. Just a simple Reclaim, like each character currently earns individually but applied account-wide, would be wonderful.
When will we get another chance at the mirror Cochran Shotgun? I was hospitalized last time and couldn't play!
Yeah, the ability to select old Event Item projects would be nice too, though the Seasonal Event logic is probably being applied to these as well... meaning that you've got to get is while the getting it good. Exclusivity isn't something that I desire over players that missed an Event, so long as they have to earn the items by playing the Events the same way I did.
With each passing day I wonder if I stepped into an alternate reality. The Cubs win the world series. Donald Trump is President. Britain leaves the EU. STO gets a dedicated PvP season. Engineers are "out of control" in STO.
The idea that any Starfleet Officer would be allowed (or would WANT) to use that rifle is patently ridiculous. I'd be willing to bet even the Klingons would argue whether such a weapon was honorable. I'm a little tired of the way the morality of Starfleet is being forgotten, especially since this Season is supposed to be about getting back to exploration and what Starfleet is really about. "Phasers on stun" should be our modus operandi, not "torture those guys until they die."
That said, thank you for running this event again. It's always nice to get a boost to help me build up my tiny fleet.

Bonus Dil event AND Mirror Event at the same time? The Dil exchange rates are going to go through the roof.
Unless there is a looming bait-and-switch punchline where it is revealed that the Mirror Event rewards are excluded from the dilithium bonus. They pulled that BS with the reputation rewards.

I think it's almost a given. That's how I think they do ALL Event/Rep rewards now.

you do realise that the Dil event only lasts from thursday til monday and the mirror event runs til the 26th of the month

Ah, the 'exclusivity' which I cannot recall any player asking for. I fail to see the rationale for such nonsense; event rewards were working just fine as they were, thank you very much.
And yes, the absence of details on the rifle is puzzling and something that should've been caught by QA. Also, is it just me, or does the model look rather small for a rifle?
It looks more like something between a SMG and a large-frame pistol than a full-on rifle.
Also, I do wonder how come the idea of science ships closing portals faster wasn't applied to Counterpoint...
Hmm... 50k dilithium... I may have to run this on multiple characters... Also slightly disappointed that the rifle is just a reskinned Relativity rifle...

Because it was originally an Undine event reward that never happened? (They just slapped a 'Mirror' tag on it?)
Look at the rest of the pictures in the OP. It looks like some kind of ground event involving the Undine at P'Jem.

in mirror Starfleet it is
Caps vs Dil. Caps vs. Dil. Damnit.
I think those are screen shots of the rewarded rifle in use. The Zephram Cochrane Shotgun was also a ground weapon award from an earlier Mirror event.
Go for Caps. At least the rewards are permanent and the grind much less painful due to the sandbox nature of the game.

I think it's been fubared a few times in the past, so we couldn't get the new marks for a few days or a week.

The dilithium exchange is going to go off the chart though with all the ore flying round at the same time!
Bonus XP was attached to the hourly event mirror invasion event and was for all levels. This one is only for level 50 and above.
