Is anyone enjoying the Terran Reputation rewards so far?

I've had the Terran Rep rifle for a couple days and just yesterday got the shields for the 2 piece set bonus and upgraded the rifle which now gives me a passive charge to its secondary every 60 seconds. Other than looking cool, it's pretty average rifle even with the secondary when fully charged.

I absolutely love the Science module, instantly revives anyone and everyone that can be revived in the aoe.

I'm not sure about the space set since I don't have any of it yet, considering getting the torpedo and working my way from there. Who has some of the space gear anyway? Does it look promising and would it work well with the 3 piece Quantum Phased set?

I'm having trouble deciding if I want to get the space set, I really don't want to lose the Krenim set since I'm working with Tetyron weapons and the 3 piece Sunrise set. My T5u Vesta only has so many slots to work with, but I'll happily replace the Sol Defense set if the Terran set has anything better to offer.

    That Bat'leth is amazing.

    "He shall be my finest warrior, this generic man who was forced upon me.
    Like a badass I shall make him look, and in the furnace of war I shall forge him.
    he shall be of iron will and steely sinew.
    In great armour I shall clad him and with the mightiest weapons he shall be armed.
    He will be untouched by plague or disease; no sickness shall blight him.
    He shall have such tactics, strategies and machines that no foe will best him in battle.
    He is my answer to cryptic logic, he is the Defender of my Romulan Crew.
    He is Tovan Khev... and he shall know no fear."

    Space set is #1 for drain boats. My dream come true.

    You can get the space set and put that on another ship, even it means just trying it out.

    Like every equipment set, it all depends on your play style and if you want to adapt to use a sets strengths. So far from what I can tell the space set seem to focus around tanking, taking damage and then firing it right back at your enemies. So if you think that sounds fun then go for it. As for the ground set its a little harder to tell. You could always just use the set but instead of using the rifle just have it equipped and use something else. The science mod does look really awesome, hopefully people will actually use it.

    Funny though, I never thought of Tomoyo as the sciency type. If you were a tac officer you could have used the Bat'leth and then just drop kick (lunge) your target to get close. That seems more Tomoyo's style :P

    The Terran reputation is the holy grail for all science builds. The T4 passive traits alone are worth the grind.

    AUX2BAT is no longer second class it's practically obsolete.

    Add those passive traits to the Presidio trait, a scicmdr deflector and 2-3 Krenim scientist boffs for good measure with a few torpedo skills and you can easily achieve global cool down for all science abilities.

    This crushes.

    I take full advantage of the Science Module, my mouth drools when I see my team get rekt cause it gives me an excuse to use that ability ( you're all lab rats on my team ). Makes all advanced and elite stfs seem like childs play with that module, I freaking love it. My whole kit is designed around healing and buffing the team, You're either alive or your alive when you have me on your team, so deal with it.

    And I've tried tactical but I'm TURRBLE at surviving anything and everything that's shooting at me <.<. So Tomoyo decided Science was a more suitable career.

    But +1 knowing who Tomoyo is! I've only ever come across one other player ever who's recognized the name. Anime just doesn't seem to be big with uber trek nerdz.

    Does anyone have a screenshot of the tactical module in use? Is the Micro Photon Torpedo Launcher a bazooka?

    This is relevant to my interests. Also, is it boosted by the grenades skill?

    I dont care for the Terran rep sets. Just do it for the ground weapons for my boffs. I prefer the other reps, Iconian resis, new rom, borg.

    If the mods icon is to believed, it looks like its some kind of wrist mounted launcher, which really makes me want to try it.

    And Tomoyo, there are a good number of anime fans here they just dont openly show it, like your's and rattler's avatars. I think people dont recognize her more because Clannad isnt a well known anime, not because no one watches anime. I only know her cause I watch too much anime :P

    Not worth it. Its only boost is from "Combat Specialist" (I have 6 points)
    From my tool tips it says:
    Mark XII
    136.6 Kinetic Dmg (50% Shield Pen.)
    74.7 Kin Dmg in a 3m radius
    70% chance KB +4 feet
    25 sec recharge

    My Photon Grenade MK XI VR Does more damage

    350.6 Damage with ZERO points in Grenade
    16.7 sec recharge

    My grenade hits harder and has a faster cool down.

    I was thinking more in the lines of Iron Man, when he shot the tank with a micro missile and the tank went BOOOOM!!

    This was a great disappointment. Should have waited until the feedback was in.

    That's... quite disappointing, especially since the other two kit modules seem like they would be pretty decent.

    I have not even touched the Terran Reputation, nor do I have any intentions to do so.
    I completed a 2-man CSE, ISE, and KASE, Optionals included. And I soloed Winter Invasion.

    I'm most impressed with the console of the Space set so far. The full charged secondary of the Rep. rifle is nice. I expected more healing from the Sci module, the rez aspect is interesting but I'm not that impressed by the module or the reputation itself-up to this point.

    I have no intentions of doing it either, just did a couple of hourly to get a few ground weapons for my boffs. Other reps interest me far more (new rom, dyson, iconian). It;s just not good enough to put in the time and resources.

    It is wrist mounted. I JUST got it. Looks like they recycled some Borg animations for using it too. Would have been SO MUCH COOLER if they made it like a Bazooka, considering we're launching a torpedo.

    Still gonna be fun to play with though.

    I still prefer my Winter Wonderland one, and I used this upgrade weekend to make it even more awesome.

    I just hope we get something decent at Teir 5 than a phone call from Mirror Leetah.

    Yeah that module really caught my eye, mainly because I like ground STFs. Since I usually end up with teammates with less than half my HP and shields, it'll be nice to have something I can keep rolling on myself that will auto-rez them when they croak.
