Okay, I know this is probably a silly request, but here goes. This obviously will only apply to people using the clicky-power of the last event's Revolutionary DECS ship set. But right now, that's a lot of people.
I think the Combat Elachi beaming down with you into mission zones is an adorable element to add. But Q's Winter Wonderland is, of course, not a true Combat zone, hence the Peace Enforcement and the use of mostly Snowball weapons (with occasional Foam and Candy substitutes).
But that means that our Local Friendly Elachi are showing up everywhere, dancing their Mycelial legs off. The second a snowball fight starts or the Kramp'Ihri returns, they fade away, only to return later.
I propose turning them into Elachi Grunts, but having them toss snowballs. They'd fight for a few pre-determined minutes, then beam back out. (They can be basic snowballs, I'm not saying arm them all with Hail or anything, that'd be a bit much).
This could solve the problem of them constantly returning to the map (especially during mixed periods of combat/non-combat, like Klingon Ice Fishing), so they'd overall be around slightly less if a player stays logged into the Wonderland for awhile. But while on the map, they'd be more of a contributor than just a visual block.
Call me "El," she/her only. I love my wife and I don't care who knows it!
