At first glance it looks easy. The Omega Marks aren't very hard to get; but the only PvE missions
that grant neural processors are pretty much dead. Every time I've qued for those missions I'm just
waiting endlessly. It really seems like no one is playing those any more. Is there any quicker way to
to get those?

There is another way than using the TFOs, though slower: You can trade 100 Omega Marks once per day for one neural processor.
Borg Neural Processors are incredibly easy to get. Between ISA, KSA, and CSA you can just chain them over and over again.
You are correct.
l don't know.
l really don't know what l'm about to say, except l have a feeling about it.
That l must repeat the words that come without my knowledge.'
This.
You don't say which platform you're on, but on PC there are two channels specifically for getting Defera team together. FEDDefera for Fed side and KDFDefera for KDFs. And of course there's always zone chat.

Really? All I seem to ever get most of the time is the Discovery mark ones in RTFOs...it's easier just to straight up queue for the Borg ones.

I agree - many meta-gamers measure their dps via infected - Though rumors have it they are holding back some due to the new connie and their overpowered pets, which gives a false dps read
That would be inaccurate.
First, the Connie isn't 'overpowered,' it just seems that way because it's a beam ship that doesn't fully suck.
As far as parsing goes, if a power or ability causes huge discrepancies in parsing then the league just doesn't accept those parses. People can still run them all they want and parse for their own records and analysis, they just don't upload them. I haven't heard anything about that being in effect for the Discoprise, but I am far from the authority on things like that.
Also, around 1:7 Omega crates will drop a processor. You get a crate per daily & hourly RP req.
I was 3 short myself today. Took a couple of hours to get them, with about 330 marks I needed. -- Personally, I feel the Lobi Phaser auto is better, more versatile. -- kinda hard to tell with these devs affliction for Mass Effect 1 style, stun-locking. Every-step-of,the-way.
U sure you don't mean the Competitive rep? the borg space queues are always popping on advanced, and even a few on elite. for that matter the ground ones do good as well

The one that dropped for me is CritDx2 with Dot3 and it just stun locks everything downrange. I ended up giving the Omega 2pc to my Alien boff and she's amazing with it though. My Klingon boff just mows everything down while we CC and strip shields for him, lol!
The Discovery Lobi weapon is not a good weapon. It's basically just a normal full auto, it's equivalent to other easier to obtain weapons like the Omega Auto Carbine, but the other options are cheaper. If you like that gun, then great.. that makes it worth it, but to most people they will feel they wasted lobi to get it. You can actually get an Ultra Rare Phaser Full Auto with the Discovery Visual for free in the mission 'The Plausibility of the Possible' which makes this weapon an even worse buy.
You are trying to queue for Advanced difficulty, right? Elite will take forever to pop, but you get a guaranteed Processor from Advanced, as well. I use Cure Found (Advanced), myself. It always pops in under five minutes, often in under one.
I can't remember any other Borg queue having an elite version and no the competive queues don't count as they don't give Omega marks.
True but it doesn't give Borg marks if you need those (only Delta and Ico marks)
I've got some other mythbusters if ya like? -- Y'see, unconventional warfare is my thing and that's why I prefer the right tool for the job. That autocarbine works 'nothing at all like a carbine'; and is actually more like a reskinned (Ap) AR you mention.
I dunno how it is on PC, but ground combat on XBOX is about being stun locked by your own abilities, while enemies have a full (3D), range of movement and exploit you. You need to be a little creative, and you need to have the right tools for the job. -- and 'of course', everything is about "the way you play". If we all did things the same way, life would be pretty disingenuous.
But: that's not really the Ops problem here. Their problem is acquiring the matts to see for themselves. I'm just saying "don't sweat it".
lol.. yeah, not sure why I pointed out Bug Hunt when we're talking about Borg Marks, guess I had a temporary stroke.
For Neural Processors.. the standard 'run of the mill' advanced Borg Space Ques are quick and easy. Getting them by running Elite Borg Ground Maps is easy with the right team, but I don't recommend it in a public queue.
You're talking about the Omega Rifle which I never said was bad. I have issue with the Lobi Discovery Auto rifle which is just a run of the mill, unremarkable rile that gives you nothing over a standard mission reward rifle and drains you of 40 lobi. I probably should not have compared the DISCO Lobi Gun to the Omega because you're right.. the Omega is miles better. If anything though, that only further illustrates the point I was trying to make against the DISCO Rifle.
I am a fan of the Omega Carbine, it's a very cool weapon. Personally, I prefer the Replica Thompson these days, but I have no issue with the Omega Rifle and I frequently equip my away teams with them. I don't consider it the 'best flanker,' that honor goes to the Thompson hands down.. but the Omega Carbine is an excellent weapon.
I don't know if they have the Thompson on console (im a PC guy) but if they do, check it out.. it's an amazing weapon and great against Borg (and everything else.) Use it with something like Deadly Intent so you can spam that AOE and it's just fantastic. Word of warning though.. it's range kinda sucks.
Nah mate, I'm talking about the Dsc Auto, which you did. -- It's not at all.
Lobi stuff fills a niche that the rep sets just don't cater to. More lego's is good right?-- on top of being generically awesome for general play. -- I mean, it's Lobi, it's there for a reason.
The Omega carbine, however, doesn't work anything like a carbine and is only really useful against Borg (which they can adapt to and nerf the whole platform). That's why the Omega 2pc is now on my away boff, whom seems to be doing well with it (as I initially said).
Being that no gun is good in all situations. I prefer the versatility of the Lobi Dsc. it *always* does naked 97 dmg. (before mods or buffs).
I know yer playing this on PC. I'm not (with this game anyway), that's the point; if it is one at all. On XBOX it would be a lot better if the devs removed the stun locking on ability use. The NPC AI exploits it way too much. -- and seriously, whom stops dead in their tracks, *exposed*, just to run by and drop a 'nade? (from cover, to cover) -- it's ridiculous.
People are complaining, in games, thinking it's rubber-banding. I'm saying it's not, it's the game mechanics, and they're crying a big foul! (which it is, it's cheating). -- Or some caster NPC hit scans you with DoT AoE and you can't combat roll out of it? It just drags you back because at that exact moment your toon decides to cast a 4 sec animation.. it's either turn based or action, the devs need to decide because you can't mix the two. It don't flow.
Bioware learnt that, and fixed it for ME2.
