on. To do this on 9 characters takes literally months of grinding both the rep assignments themselves AND the pve for marks. I have already done this with 5 and it was exhausting between the time it took on marks AND the grinding for the rep to complete to tier 6. I will no longer be doing reputation, it takes way too much time and way too much stress to handle, not to mention that while i am doing the above i cant run missions since my day has to be devoted to marks grinding for reputation. It would help if we only had to do reps on one toon and the rest can be sponsored to tier 6 without grinding.
And a couple seem overpowered cough cough instant revive cough cough
If the rep had come out with the first Discovery stuff, we'd be done with it by now. Hopefully, they won't 'force' everyone to go back and grind out old DSC TFOs just because it's the only place to get marks.
Hopefully after a month or two, the Discovery Marks will be added to other Marks Choice boxes. The other Reputations did the same, with the notable exception of the Gamma Reputation that was kept out of them for an extended time. That was both because they were working on Reputation Tier 6 code and to make the upcoming Discovery TFOs to be more appealing.

This will launch the week after the current queue event, Operation Riposte, ends. However, we'll get to play it even more in order to get the marks for the rep. Color me unimpressed. I'm already sick of the queue as it is and now I 'need' to run it more to get the Discovery marks.
Maybe someday, but for now, I think it's time I take a break from the day to day grind that is STO. I'll be back for the next event queue to help build up for the free T6 ship and of course for the summer event and the new T6 Risian Corvette. But even then, it'll be log in, do event, log out. I feel little reason to PLAY the game anymore. So few new story missions and huge breaks between even those minor releases.
Granted, real life concerns are eating more into my free time so that may be the biggest factor to my disinterest in STO anymore. I won't complain too much about the quality of the releases, as the story missions are usually really good. Even some of the recent queues have been good, but interest in them gets quashed quickly due to the grind events that seem to accompany them.
I do look forward to seeing what comes next and hope it'll be something to rekindle my interest in the game. Time will tell.

The increase of the maximum tier from 5 to 6 was already unbearable with all of the reputation projects on 10 toons. If I have to do it again for 100 days to max out this rep, I'll probably just ignore reputations now.
Choice of marks boxes usually do not include newly released rep marks. Even if they do, it'll likely be coded so only boxes received AFTER the new rep was released will include them. There are players sitting on hundreds of mark reward boxes from the random queue system as well as all the ones from the Endeavor system. So I can't see the devs allowing players to be essentially done collecting the marks on day one.
Then again, this is a rep that will involve queues that are "old" so they might actually allow it. *shrug*

Does Battle of Binary Stars have an Advanced or Elite version by now? If not, that might explain why they don't mention it, it's already a Choice of Marks mission, and Normal Queues don't give you Elite Marks.
I enjoy the ground Pahvo Dissention but is no longer available to players. Hope we can access it so we have more ways to grind this rep...otherwise will be boring to do the same stuff over and over again.

ahh hell thats what I get for reading it just after waking up. For some reason I was thinking ground/space versions on the same tier, but they never are
edit:
can say hell or damned but not c r a p??? the censors around here need a good flogging
Not only will this come after several weeks of successive grinds, but it also concerns PvE queues that have been there for months and people may have already grown tired of.
What is it gonna be next? Control reputation and to get the new marks, you need to play the Borg queues again and again after playing them hundreds of times already?
I have a solution if you don't want to the Discovery rep on 10 toons.
Just focus in on one toon and get them up to T5. At tier 5, the rep will apply account wide sponsorship to the other 9 toons, so the grind for them is only 20 days to tier 5, 50 to tier 6 total.
Upon tier 6, there will also be a project unlock for an account wide discount of all gear.

True, but that still means that one toon has to grind for 70 days (I forgot that the bonus applies to the character who reaches level 5 first as well) and the others for 50 days, starting on day 40 of the grind. That still means that it's a 90 day ordeal all things considered

you only need T6 if you want the alt weapon dmg type... yet not all reps get alt dmg like Nukara.
On the bright side, we have MORE options than we do for Gamma Rep, that has a grand total of... 1 STF and a wonky Battlezone that is a ghost town.
Personally... I kinda like Starbase One. Peril over Pahvo is also more enjoyable than its Lukari counterpart due to not having a chance to get really annoying enemy groups like Tzenkethi, Iconian, or Vaadwaur.
