    Don't queue for the wrong one and come here to complain about it.
    Which one is the wrong one? The one where I don't want to spend more than 20 minutes on it, or the one where I want to go for as long as possible?..
    And more generally, if you have specific demands of the team, don't pug.
    Like "die at 5"? Yes, I keep telling them not to pug...

    61 or 62 on a custom team of sci and eng officers with a mix of shotguns and tr-116 rifles, and a lot of heals and rezzes. Finally wiped by a lightning round and a lot of enemies with holds or other cc.

    Looks like my main toon cheated through Sompek to get the acco! No, there is no easy trick for it but there are the great guys from DPS Diamond. Works out the same.

    Thx Feli, Spawny, Lordcruncher and Danfei! :#

    Yeah I'm also a bit surprised by that fact to be honest. It doesn't say anywhere that there are 10 charges but if that's true, then it definitely makes them more interesting. Makes me wonder why it's not in the description.

    I never bothered with those projects because they take more resources than you'll ever collect during one STF meaning you're looking at a net loss of resources every time you use them - and because I avoid consumables in general. But them having 10 charges means that it could actually be worth it to buy some. Especially for Sompek, for which an exception may be worth it anyway :)

    I have the same thinking... Consumables are a lost cause to me so I generally avoid them like the plague. My thinking has changed however given the new information.... Also being able to use from the inventory is a boon to be sure...

    yes you could use them out of your inventory which makes them pretty good. there is only a shared cd of 3 minutes with other of them including shard of possibilities.

    another extremly helpful and awesome device are the kit overboosters combined with the biochemist cd reduction (rare or better). this means you have most (all) of the time +37.5 kitperf and in addition you will get a great kit module cd reduction every

    Ups, we did it again! This time around with the OP and Spartan of this thread. The two other players were once again from my fleet, Omega Combat Division.

    Awsome fight all! OCD, STO League, TSC, STO forums. Good players everywhere. o:)

    A great run guys! Thanks... I had an instant spawn at the end but sadly my click was not fast enough... Anyway, anytime you guys want to do it again hit me up... It was really nice doing that run with skilled players on tweaked toons... :)

    I have one more NWS toon to get the title on - just sayin'.... B)

    My premade sadly lost yesterday at 96. Was really disappointing but at least losing sometimes will give another win some meaning.

    I'll look for a purple biochemist next time in game...

    On a side note, I wonder how many people actually do trait specks for such runs.. I used the following for my last run but it did not look like other were:
    • Hive Mind
    • Pack Leader

    • Self Modulating Shot

    Hive Mind is some kind of a must have for ground. Cheap and extremly good. Coalition Squad Tactics is especially awesome in case you have an eng in your team. Sure, the runspeed is nice, but the shield heal you get from it per eng is absolutly amazing and i bet its mostly the #1 shield heal contribution on ground (if not the highest of all your heals).
    Pack leader is yea okish but there are way better traits and self modulating is not really needed but okish too.

    Sure.... Hive and Coalition are the two required traits I have for ground. The other listed are for extension of burst damage. If you know of other must haves please let me know. I'm not a seasoned expert on most of them. Shoot I've not thoroughly tested a lot of them frankly speaking... Many seem frankly useless to me as a focused tac player.

    Together with @lewsimm, @usssentinel, @mmps1 & @Destrogen we got into 125 yesterday so the furthest I got in 2.0. Well done all. It’s funny; when a group can handle the highest setting of 108 and the tension begins to drop for getting the accolades the true enemy begins to shows itself in Sompek: fatigue!

    I like the bit where I died 48 times. Also, it not being my main hurts my immersion but a small part of me likes that an eng with a twok phaser done better than the boolean tac hax. Cheers for the carry team o7

    Oh and engs with sabotage ftw.

    That is seriously a marvelous achievement! Congrats to you and your team...

    The run we just finished was lots of fun again; best of all my last NWS toon now has the title so I'm stoked!

    Thanks again for your help, and support. Your fleet has some seriously high skilled players in it. You are an excellent community leader organizing runs for people within the DPS league, your fleet and others. Salute!

    Round 28, timed pug with five and dier who joined in 5 rounds later as they got tired of seeing us revive them ten or so times as a meat shield :3

    As to untimed, once the sompek grind is over I'll run a few of them puglyfe style and see how far I can go - is there a list of the new titles yet?

    Timed, think had 30. Fortunatly no fivers in that one.

    Found if you have one or two fivers you get about 5-10 rds less.

    Still don't know why fivers cant call out to eachother and get a premade going, not like theres no demand for that.

    Actually there are a lot - no joke... The only one which matters is The Glorious however because well - its glorious... B):D

    For those of you serious trying to finish this before it ends and are properly specked as well as geared, I recommend contacting Peter and trying to work something out with him and his fleetmates. They really a solid bunch of players...

    GG again Spartan and thanks a lot for the kind words. :)

    Truth of the matter is that I feel fortunate that there are still some players like you around. Players, who not only have the capacity, but also the eagerness in the first place to make a good fight out of this event. Wear the title with pride on your toons; there are not that many around who can.

    Got to round 68 (?) i think with some peeps from TSC before one of us got DC'd and then the rest got wiped a few seconds later.

    Out of interest is there supposed to be constant lightning rounds in the later stages? Because by the time we all died it was more a case of dodge the hazard than fight the mobs.

    No constant lightning Steve; if you got to 68 you should have seen all combinations by now as far as I can tell. Lightning gets only stonger and faster (or more) later on but no constant phases of it. As tac player check out the kit modules “take cover” and/or “phasic shroud”. I hope you use "motivation" as well.
