Also on drozanna station. Not sure where they're located for the klingons.
This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Questerius 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.

Apparently, they took away his action bar but left the character there.

That's entirely possible. Don't think i ever used them so i would not have noticed that.

Precisely... they took away the interface ability.
For those that didn't know; they would buy consoles that you picked up from drops and they'd pay in GPL. They would pay anywhere from 15-50k GPL per console. Of course they would not purchase all of the consoles I would have in inventory, but on average I could sell 20% of them for GPL instead of EC.
I was making huge amounts of GPL.... unfortunately it appears that they've decided to stop that gravy train....

Wouldn't be so bad if we could win GPL in more ways than Dabo and Doffing.. I vote playable tongo.
"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."
Wasn't the original purpose of the character to take back science consoles that used to have twice the current amount of skill bonus on science skills from a skill system prior to a major skill revamp and had been allowed to keep the higher bonus for a while until they were nerfed, too?
Timeline:
Game Release
Cryptic decides that science consoles give to high of a bonus and nerfs it to half. All existing consoles stay at their old values.
Cryptic realizes that this is a dumb idea and nerfs the existing consoles to the new values, too. TO appease the raging players that spend millions of EC (that used to be a lot) to get these consoles by adding the vendor.
Cryptic realizes the skill system sucks and revamps it.
...
Now.
Why would the vendor even still take any consoles? Shouldn't they be all gone by now?

Assign the Ferengi Doff you get from the first play-through of 'Time in a Bottle' to an Active Ground Slot. As you slaughter Borg, Vaadwaur, or Voth in the Ground Battlezones, it'll start adding up. One of my characters has made over 40k GPL just doing what we do in this game as a matter of course - killing new life and new civilizations.

I'm sorry to have missed this bonanza. But each summer and winter I sell some ornaments to keep all my characters around 250,000. This would have made the big floor trophy doable though so again sorry I missed out sniffle.

Gpl isnt particularly hard to come by but you cant even get these consoles anymore can you? This is going back five years at this point at least iirc, before f2p even

They may have made changes recently, as to prevent new ones from being obtained, but it wasn't just too long ago, they were still being provided via doff assignments!

Actually... I think they were craftable in the new R&D too.
You mean the guy that says he'll buy "prototype" science consoles?
So, which ones are the "prototypes", because I've never received one as a drop and/or seen it as a possible DOffing/Crafting result...
Therefore, if he was buying "regular" science consoles along with prototypes, then that would fall under "glitch" and lead to his unannounced "correction"...
Detecting big-time "anti-old-school" bias here. NX? Lobi. TOS/TMP Connie? Super-promotion-box. (aka the two hardest ways to get ships) Excelsior & all 3 TNG "big hero" ships? C-Store. Please Equalize...

The Ferengi Collectors have been added to Star Trek Online with Season Two: Ancient Enemies as Cryptic Studios decided to "nerf" Consoles from the early days of the game that had superior stats. To compensate players who own these older consoles, the Ferengi will reward players willing to sell their consoles with a large amount of latinum.
Older science consoles have been updated to be brought in line with the stats of newer science consoles. These older consoles now have the term “Prototype” in their name and can be sold to vendors on DS9, Drozana Station and ESD for a some Latinum.
It's obvious the ferengi collector wasn't suppose to be taking just any science consoles. It was bugged so they disabled him.
One thing the wiki doesn't say is that he also took andorian phaser ship weapons. Shortly after the andorian Kumari ships were released they nerfed the andorian ship weapons you purchase from the dilithium store. The collector would offer players a full dilithium refund for the weapons they purchased before the change.

You would think that if they have been in operation since season 2 that that would warrant a foot note or something....
Appreciate the assistance
