Oh yea... I was just asking for a Recruiting event as it's been awhile especially since nothing shows up on the Calendar for November 2017 or December 1999.
Seems like December there going to be a temporal anomaly...
yeah what sir patrick said!! And damn those afkers!! Yesterday landed up with 2/5 sitting on the perimiter of the map doing nothing at all while three of us were getting spammed by the damn fighters with tachyon beams..BTW did the number of fighters go up this time round? I dont remember those many before and that too spamming a tachyon beam left right and cente..
Well I'm doing this for the dil so that the next time the phoenix box is around i buy a TRIBBLE loaded and upgrade everything to insanity..Upgrade it so!!
The account unlock is definitely appreciated for hte special item. Thank you for that! My only complaint with this event and others that are similar to this is with players who choose to AFK. It is also frustrating when players feel like they do't need to close portals because they aren't in a science ship. These two issues aren't with the event itself, but with those that ruin the event for others.

Well, Jcsww....let me tell you a story about what happens when I try to close a rift in my Pilot Raptor. IT DOES NOT HAPPEN. It isn't because of MY lack of trying. It is because before the interaction completes on the screen....I got more mirror ships on my TRIBBLE from the rift I am trying to close, curtailing that interact.
SO....they need to make the rifts close faster for the rest of us....or you can wish for it forever and it won't happen. LOL!
And, my suggestion is: team up with someone in a Science Ship or fly a science ship, yourself. There you go...rifts will get closed.
+++++++++++
Come to think of it....should I be complaining about Engineers that ain't tanking and getting the aggro OFF me so I CAN close rifts???
We could just keep going with this forever.

I'm actually one of those crazy lads who enjoy the mission when in a good team. And if you team up with another fellow player, you can close rifts with any ship. Just don't fire if your partner has already engaged the group. Don't begin in the middle of the map, where ships from different rifts meet, begin on the outskirts instead. And forget station health, that's pointless, and do the station defense upgrade tasks only if it's convenient. I've made between 160 to 180 marks (including daily bonus) like this.
I'm going to just get stuck in and send those traitors back where they came from (well the survivors )
"Make the Borg great again"
Yes, forget the crystal entity, change it to a wolf 359 style cube fight!
Single huge cube, 10 or 20 man all out battle vs the cube.
They have turned this event into a complete over-the-top joke! Sure, last time everyone was blowing up ships and closing portals and then having to wait for the timer to run out to go to the 2nd part, but this time around is ridiculous! I am running the same ships, some with better gear, and getting blown up repeatedly because the number of opponents is no less than 10-to-1 and they are all beefed up! Seriously, in what reality would a battlecruiser unload everything on a tiny frigate and have it still standing there? Get real Cryptic! The only change that needed to be made was to shorten the length of the event to conform with the amount of time it actually takes to complete the first part! In reality if 5 starships rolled up on 100, they would go, "F**k that station!" and go have drinks at the nearest bar to toast the loss of their friends! The rewards are no way near the efforts for this incredible waste of time! I'm out!
So, according to the video preview SmokeBailey linked above, the reward is basically regular dual phaser pistols with a Dam (X3) modifier. No agony proc, nothing special. Fully upgraded to MkXIV Epic, it gained a CritX and a CritH proc.
Of course, that was done on Tribble, so our mileage may vary.

I don't have any issues closing rifts in a Raptor or any other ship. It may take longer ot close but that simply means the spawn needs to be killed faster to give yourself enough time to close it.

Of course, that is ALL "I" just have to do??? Don't think so.
There are more problems with team play every where (and with every who) in this game
and until people wake up to it, any where there is teaming in this game...it will be what it will be.

It is such a pain finding time...this looks fairly fast...

It'll do that alright. It's where most of my Kurak's mastery came from and I've played it 3 times.
Thanks for the response, Orangenee

I came to STO from SWTOR. You might say I'm used to disappointment.
It's not too bad it's only 20 minutes or so and it sure as hell beats that stupid Delta Quadrant planet. Ecoli or whatever it is.
