in Star Trek Online General Discussion
I'm sure people will notice in game with the announcements flying by but the Phoenix packs are back in the dilithium store.

Same items as before though it appears.

German blog has details.

    Nice, those tech upgrades are wunderbar!

    Just checked the French version, nothing new, indeed. Except maybe "for each daily free pack you can get from the Ferengi, you get a one-time Phoenix admiralty card", which I think wasn't present before. Still a welcome return for those who missed the events or didn't get all the stuff the last time.

    EDIT: And the NA blog is now online.

    getting this box back so close after the last time, doesn't help us. it should only be brought back when the exc. goes over 450+

    Good for upgrades.

    I think this will probably drop the exchange rate back down to around 270:1 like last time. I still have some left over from the 1st time, but I think I will get another 10 / 20 Phoenix Packs per captain after I get home tonight.

    I already got everything I wanted from it last time.

    The one-time-use phoenix ship was supposed to be given last time, but it did not work. At least not if you had the permanent version. Odds are it still does not work and that text was just re-using the old blog post.

    I got everything I wanted on my Alpha Tier characters last time. I'll try and do the same on my Beta Tier characters this time around. Hopefully, the next time the Phoenix Box rolls around, they'll add some more prizes to the list as the Emergency Conn Hologram DOFF still isn't in the list.

    Just because they have former promo duty officer prize ships in the pack, you automatically call the box faaaake because they need to keep the rarity of those ships high? I look at it as a way for people to grab more of the stuff they might want the most, which would be the upgrades.

    Why would the emote be in the phoenix box? It comes from a mission accolade. Phoenix box only has limited-time items.
  • fiberteksyfirfiberteksyfir Member Posts: 1,207 Arc User
    Hmm maybe im thinking of a different emote ill have to check. theres only 1 left i dont have (which that may actually be it.. although on a 7yr old main char id be surprised he wouldnt have it)

    My romulan character does not have it. Also, the Romulan side, I think, only started about 3 or 4 years ago.

    Yup, it still doesn't work, though I do have the permanent version, so maybe someone lacking it could check if they get a 1x version.

    I thought, "It's a fake!" was a Romulan exclusive thing.

    It comes from the mission "Tradecraft" which is romulans-only, yes.

    Right, so it's still available, and therefore wouldn't be in the Phoenix Box. Right?

    Given the impact it's had on the dil to zen exchange rate, I'm so glad I held back as much dil as I did when converting previously! :D

    Right.

    Yeah. So, I guess I don't understand why he'd be looking for it to be included in the Phoenix Box. :/

    Exchange rate is down to 210 and dropping..

    I love these boxes.

    They are not dropping the Single-use Phoenix Replica Admiralty Cards this time either. The Blog was copy/pasted from the original one last time and does not take into account the addition of the Emergency Comm Hologram and removal of the Elachi Rift Kit Module. Solanae Tribble is listed but is not on the Vendor as well.

    The Dilitium Market seems to be under some sort of 'manipulation' at this time as well.
