    Yes, but only when I get bored of how they look
    Well, as promised (in my head, anyway), here's my Ferengi Privateer and his crew:

    That's a nice gallery of ROGUES! May have to do one of those someday.

    Space Barbie Extraordinaire. Got a question about Space Barbie? Just ask.

    Things I want in STO:

    1) More character customization options such as more clothing options, letting the toon complexion affect the entire body, not just the head. Also a true RGB color picker applied to all costume and appearance options, which would allow for true appearance customization and homogenous colors instead of "this same exact color looks vastly different on two different pieces."
    2) Bridge customization, not bridge packs. Let us pick a general layout and adjust the color palette, console appearance, and chair types, as well as more ready room layout options.
    3) Customizable ground weapons, i.e. The aesthetic look of phaser dual pistols but they shoot antiproton bolts. For obvious reasons this would only apply to standard ground weapons.
    4) For the love of Q please revamp Plasma Ground Weapons. They look like demented Supersoakers right now.
    5) True Vanity Impulse and Deflector effects similar to Vanity Shields.
    6) A greater payout for hitting T6 Reputations. Currently it takes more time and resources to get from T5 to T6 than it does to get from nothing to T5. Make that grind really pay out at the end.
    7) Mirrorverse Refugee event similar to AoY/Delta/Gamma, complete with new Mirrorverse recruits for all factions.
    8) Independent Faction, because yo ho yo ho a pirate's life for me!

    Noice. You've actually inspired me to do my own gallery of Rogues ship. Thanks for the idea! Promise I won't steal your ideas!

    "Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery." - Oscar Wilde.

    Besides, most of this is personal preference. You may find a combo that works better for your sense of aesthetics.

    Also, fun fact: that's not the full quote.

    The full quote is "Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery that mediocrity can pay to greatness."

    However, the full quote is kind of insulting, which is why we drop the end of it. [/end Daily Literature Knowledge Drop]

    someone should give the full quote to hollywood...maybe they'll stop working on s.hitty imitations of actual GOOD shows and do something ORIGINAL for the first time in decades​​
    Like special weapons from other Star Trek games? Wondering if they can be replicated in STO even a little bit? Check this out: https://forum.arcgames.com/startrekonline/discussion/1262277/a-mostly-comprehensive-guide-to-star-trek-videogame-special-weapons-and-their-sto-equivalents

    #LegalizeAwoo

    A normie goes "Oh, what's this?"
    An otaku goes "UwU, what's this?"
    A furry goes "OwO, what's this?"
    A werewolf goes "Awoo, what's this?"


    "It's nothing personal, I just don't feel like I've gotten to know a person until I've sniffed their crotch."
    "We said 'no' to Mr. Curiosity. We're not home. Curiosity is not welcome, it is not to be invited in. Curiosity...is bad. It gets you in trouble, it gets you killed, and more importantly...it makes you poor!"
    Passion and Serenity are one.
    I gain power by understanding both.
    In the chaos of their battle, I bring order.
    I am a shadow, darkness born from light.
    The Force is united within me.

    well, in fairness, I suspect the full thing is redundant simply given the nature of describing it as "flattery".

    Hollywood is not interested in flattery, sincere or otherwise, only money. So long as people pay to see them remake ruin old classics, they'll keep doing it.

    I'm actually using the KDF to do my rogues. Easier to make the ship look old and beat up. I am sure old BoP were sold off like hotcakes to mercs.

    Always Space Barbie!
    Hey I just dropped a crapload of EC's on decent stat Pulse Phasers because they "look cool" lol.

    I spend A LOT of time on my characters on not just the clothes but tweaking and fine-tuning faces and body shapes and I pretty much always go with themed builds over optimal DPS builds, which means my feds use exclusively Phasers, Romulan Plasma for my Rom and Disruptors for my KDF.
    Yup pretty much what I do too. I get a theme and go with it, even the ship names go with a theme.
    But maybe it's just my imagination, see for yourself.

    I can only use ships I find please my aesthetics, same as outfits.

    Space Barbie is the real end game.

    I use the Winter Coats for many of my uniforms, only my Romulan & Reman Crews have ramshackle Firefly look. My AoY are using the Kelvin uniform, but definitely Space Barbie.

    People tend to say that in jest, but it's probably very true. At least, for me it is. Most equipment I got nowadays is for cosmetic purposes only. Like that Competitive Deflector I got the other day: don't really need it, but it looked good on my Faeht (tested on Tribble).

    BiS, ftw! :)

    What people don't seem to understand is how much power a simple color change can have on a uniform.

    For instance, the Vaadwaur Uniforms are bog standard earth tones, mainly browns, and that makes sense for them.

    However, when you change it up, like I did here, you get something amazing.

    It's just PERFECT for Misryath, my Frost Giant Space Wizard character.
