So, all I'm hearing is that the Phoenix Box is only worth the upgrades? That.still asks my original question, what do we do with the things now that 99% of their contents is redundant in the face of an account unlock store that will probably take most of those away anyway?
What's the draw to get people to spend more dilithium than we already do?
We listed other things that players do want, both new players and old players that skipped events.
Besides that, no upgradeable gear starts out as Mark XV Epic so the upgrading part is the draw for most players.
New players, new gear, new alts = new need for upgrades.

We talk about the upgrade a a lot. Because we're long time players and have pretty much everything from them, except the ships. But, as you get in, get leveled up and such. The phoenix box holds old event gear you can't get any other way. You can get some duty officers from it as well. Along with other things, like the red matter capacitor. All this will be in the Uncommon to Very Rare tokens buy. Ultra Rare and Epic are well... you gotta get super lucky to get either one of those and get a ship.
So, don't take the upgrade as the be all, end all here. It just happens to be the most useful thing one can get from the box. Since most everyone is probable after a the UR/Epic token to get a ship they may have missed an event for, for the character they want it on.
