introduce system like the tech upgrades for duty officers, and let us upgrade our doffs from lower qualities to ultra rare and golden.
the doff upgrades could be added to the phoenix price packs similar to the tech upgrades. they could also work exactly the same way how applying them to items adds tech points, and increases the chance to upgrade them every time.
the space/ground benefits they provide would max out at purple quality, but they could have a small chance to get random additional traits that would be beneficial for their specialization (for example telepathic for traders) on quality upgrade.
since the quality upgrade itself grants a large boost to their success rates, this would be very worthwile to do.
this should provide quite a large sink for a long time, and it also doesnt hold back beginners in this game since the doff system isnt especially neccessary and there are enough blue/purple quality doffs to pick up to get a good starting roster.
as far as i understand the only golden quality duty officers right now are the EMH MK1 who is available for everyone, and two or three more as final prices from special recruitment events.

well, they said they were gonna do it, so here is my idea for it.
they could even have a trader or store to sell duty officer assignments with rare rewards for dilithium, like you can find in the lockboxes.
this would actually be a permanent sink, since there is no real limit to how often you can repeat the doff assignments.
in the end, there is no reason to not have both. decent sinks for dilithium and decent sinks for zen, while allowing players to trade them between each other.
as long as enough people are still buying zen, it doesnt really matter what they do with it, doesnt it?
Yeah what they say and what they do are two different things. Lets just put it this way, how many months has it been and how much have they done so far? In the meantime they max the need for Zen as much as they can by bringing one sale after the other after the other.
I agree. The problem here is not the Dev's but rather the people who make the decisions for them. I would love to see a housing system where you maybe get your own quarters and be able to decorate it ect...
should be not a difficult decision, all tools and basics are there: already a simple sandbox placing system for trophies inside ships (mostly older ships...with more than a bridge...) and dont forget the foundry system (its still there ...anywhere sleeping..).
And the final price: your own "housing" ferengi moon..... now hyped ;-)
