Can't transwarp to Bajor

crossmrcrossmr Member Posts: 86 Arc User
Something seems wrong with this. In the last couple weeks I've had issues transwarping there. Every time I select it, it takes me to Defera instead. I've made sure that I'm clicking on Bajor, hit transwarp and bam, I'm at defera. Today it just wouldn't do anything. I hit bajor, transwarp, window closes, nothing happens. Did it 5 times. it wouldn't transwarp. So I selected Defera and instantly TW. Anyone else having issues with this?

    Yes, I have been for months now.

    That's because Bajor is not a valid Transwarp destination for free. You need to spend a Transwarp Coil to get there.

    Free Transwarps can also be gained by Missions.

    According to the wiki Bajor is unlocked by Conduit IV and Defera by Conduit V

    https://sto.gamepedia.com/Ability:_Transwarp

    It shows no difference between TWing to defera or Bajor.

    That also doesn't explain why when I chose Bajor it sent me to defera for the last two weeks. If it was simply not working because it wasn't free, nothing would happen.

    It had sent me to Defera instead of Bajor a few years ago when I didn't realize about the Coils. Then it would sometimes do nothing. I am talking about using my Transwarp Dropdown and selecting Alpha Quadrant - Bajor.

    Are you Transwarping from your Transwarp Dropdown and selecting Alpha Quadrant - Bajor or are you using the Fleet Transwarp Gateway at your Starbase? Those Conduit unlocks only work from that Gateway as far as I know.

    Frankly, what I do since they provided free Transwarps with no Cooldown for most Missions, is I keep 'Second Wave' in my Mission Log and that takes me right outside of DS9. 'Of Bajor' may take you directly to Bajor.

    That's what I'm talking about. For the last couple weeks it's been sending me to defera instead of Bajor, and then yesterday it just did nothing. No error, nothing.

    As for queuing a mission, meh, that's a workaround, this a forum for reporting bugs and there is something broken with that.

    How do you know if a transwarp coil is needed to select certain destinations?

    If the icon looks like a transwarp coil, then it requires one.

    As previously mentioned, these 2 destinations are added by Fleet upgrades, and like the other destinations added by fleet upgrades, they should not be required to have TW-Coils to be used.

    Yes, but not to your personal transwarp list. For the fleet unlock, that you have to transwarp to your fleet starbase space map and use the transwarp conduit there.

    Which is what I said back at the beginning of the month.

    Then Risa, Vulcan, Mempa sector, etc. transwarps should also be removed since they come from Fleet Upgrades, or be required to have Transwarp Coils.
