Hello,
Report for account @Ezachiel, name of charcer on sereen.
i made a brand new gamma recruit capitan, as you can see it's created after event start :smile:

xdoa2zxegll1.png

This is my second Jem'Hadar captain, and the second time he was created during an event
After completing a few achievements, I managed to check what bonuses I got with another character...
Unfortunately, I didn't receive any bonus.
There is no mention in the information about this event that it is a one-time benefit, and if someone has already created such a character, they will not receive the benefits of the event again.

Here is screen with gamma recuit comm's
l9mhxwbpr7ng.png

That's the first thing. First problem.

Secondly, this character is stuck in some strange pose in the "ground" environment. I have visited the "tailor" several times and modified the pose to bravler or normal, the change is not "seen", the pose does not change.

    Your Gamma Recruit is suffering from Ketracel White withdrawal. After the mission Home, you get healed from it and can take it if you desire. This is not a bug. Don't know about the rest.

    For more information about Gamma Recruitment, here is https://stowiki.net/wiki/Gamma_Recruitment.

    Jem'Hadar characters need to have a minimum of 20 hours of playtime to collect Account-wide rewards from the allied-faction's Temporal Agent.
    • Starfleet-aligned Jem'Hadar will find Philip Crey standing just outside Admiral Quinn's office;
    • KDF-aligned Jem'Hadar will find Lieutenant Q'on standing just inside the Great Hall, on the right.
    You will be able to receive the account-wide rewards from Temporal, Klingon, and Delta Recruits there.
    As a Gamma Recruit, your account-wide unlocks are the same as your Recruit unlocks and must be claimed from your Transponder.
    Secondly, this character is stuck in some strange pose in the "ground" environment.
    As mentioned above by sthe91, your Jem'Hadar is experiencing Ketracel-White withdrawal.
    Equip him with some Ketracel White, use it. and he'll recover his posture.
    If you do not have any Ketracel White, speak with Loriss on DS9 to get a free stack of 20 once per day.
    Completing the mission "Home" also removes the Jem'Hadar addiction to Ketracel White, but it can still be consumed for the combat bonuses as needed.

    Update, at the moment my captain has 1 day and 3 hours of activity, plus some completed goals according to the Dominion Transponder.

    Indeed, the problem with changing the pose is the result of the lack of "white", and it improved after completing the Gamma Quadrant series of quests.

    Unfortunately, I still do not have available "bonuses" on other characters.
    The post has been up for some time, so far I don't think anyone from support has commented. It's a bit of a shame. Does anyone else have this problem?

    I checked the availability of rewards at:

    Federation - Philip Crey at Earth Spacedock.

    Klingon - Commander Q'on in First City.

    Romulan Republic - Subcommander Kail at the Romulan Flotilla.

    As I wrote, this is my second character created as part of the Gamma Racruit event, with the first one I received rewards from the above NPCs - now I don't.

    and this is the screen in the temporal agent, where you can see the available rewards from my other recruit gamma, where it works

    A Jem'hadar character is required to be played for 20 hours before you can claim any other recruitment rewards from the temporal agent. From your second picture it looks like you only ever did the Gamma Recruitment. It doesn't matter how many gamma recruits you make a character can only claim the account wide rewards once. It is the same for the other recruitment events.

    I haven't seen such a record, about a one-time bonus.

    I think what p331 is talking about is the fact that a recruit can only claim the rewards from their recruitment device, not both the device and the account-wide version of their type of recruitment. For instance, if all you have are Gamma Recruits then there is little or nothing one Gamma can claim from another Gamma's progress by going to the Temporal Agent.

    Also, iirc, instead of graying out already claimed rewards like the earlier recruitments, Gamma only displays unclaimed rewards so if there is nothing to claim nothing would be displayed.

    Something the event docs don't really make clear either is the fact that in order for anything to appear in the reclaim it first has to be claimed from the event device by the Recruit, then it will be available for other regular characters and recruits of the other recruitments (but not those of the same recruitment of course).

    As with previous recruitment events, the Gamma Recruitment Event represents an unprecedented opportunity for getting a leg-up on progression. Not only do Gamma Recruits themselves benefit from additional rewarding tasks while the event is active, but they will also be capable of earning additional account-wide rewards for all characters on the Gamma Recruit’s account.

    While Jem’Hadar characters already begin their career at Level 60, Gamma Recruits are offered further opportunity to rapidly close the gap that exists between new characters and characters that have been in Star Trek Online for years. Recruitment events like this one are very new-player friendly, helping them get up to speed quickly, making it the perfect time to join the community of Star Trek Online.

    Gamma Recruits will find out quickly that they have been selected to participate in a series of special operations. These will help to prepare for combating the Hur’q threat, and operating alongside new allies from the Alpha and Beta Quadrants. Their handlers within the Dominion will issue a special Transponder device, allowing a new UI element to be accessed which will display these additional objectives.

    Completing these goals will see the Gamma Recruit rewarded with Reputation Marks, Energy Credits, Dilithium, Expertise, and other rewards specifically designed to offer additional aid to Jem’Hadar characters starting the game at high level. Similar rewards will also be earned that may be used by all characters on the same account.

    Account rewards earned from earlier completions of the same recruit type are not automatically earned on new recruits of the same type. You have to earn them on that specific character. That means you can't claim an account unlock from an earlier completed Jem'hadar recruit on a new Jem'hadar recruit. It's a quirk of the coding and always has been this way since re-runs became a thing many years ago. Recruits can claim account unlocks from different recruits once conditions have been met, so if you had a full completed Temporal recruit, your Jem'Hadar can reclaim unlocks after 20 hours from the Temporal tab.

    To have Jem'hadar recruits be able to reclaim JH recruit account unlocks means you could effectively claim the same reward twice. Also, recruit's rewards via the transponder are generally are of a higher value than those unlocked on the account, which is probably another reason you can't reclaim the same reward.

    This isn't about the new Gamma Recruit character not having the rewards from the previous character.
    Although, why not?
    This isn't about having the previous achievements unlocked on this "new" character. Nope.

    This is about not currently having the rewards from this particular "new" recruit's achievements in any character on my account-wide toons.
    This include existing Jem'Hadar, Federation, Klingon, and Romulan captains... I have completed some of the achievements on this "new" character. And get rewards from gamma responder on this "new" recruit.
    I simply don't have these rewards on other characters, only on this "new" captain.

    Is this the first Gamma recruit Jem'Hadar on your account? If it isn't and you already have one that's earned the rewards your other characters can't claim the account wide rewards twice.

    Sorry didn't read some of the earlier posts. Seeing as this isn't your first Gamma Jem'Hadar and your other alts already claimed the account rewards from that character they won't be able to claim them again from the new recruit. It's a one time claim for each alt.
  • tomas733tomas733 Member Posts: 10 Arc User
    ok, but where is it written that it is only a one-time reward. I did not see it in the description of the "event", there is no such information in the temporal officer. So where did you get this info?

    I don't think it's posted anywhere (at least not that I can find easily) but it's been this way for all the recruitment events for YEARS. Each character being only able to claim the account wide unlocks once regardless of how many recruitment characters of a certain type you have on the account.

    Okay, so the rewards you get from the Transponder are only account-wide where it says specifically in the description of that reward in the Transponder tab. Usually it will be 'awards 'x' to this character and also unlocks 'x' for your account'. Just click on the specific reward in the Transponder Tab to get the full description.

    You're not too stupid to play the game just confused. It happens to everyone. Sometimes things are not as clear as we would like them to be. Generally the player base is more than happy to help each other out and explain things so continue to ask questions when things don't make sense.

    I am not sure what exactly you are trying to ask here, but the line you bolded gives me the idea that you might be thinking that making a new recruit of the same type refreshes the rewards available to the rest of the characters on the account, but that is not the case. Recruits unlock rewards for all of the characters on the account, and each one can claim each particular reward that is unlocked exactly once. Think of the rewards like a scratch-off prize card, every reward has either been scratched off and used for a particular character or it has not been yet.

    If for instance you made a recruit that finished everything in the recruitment device (I forget what the Gamma one is called offhand, I find J'H extremely odious to try and play so I haven't used the device much, so I will call it 'the widget' here), and your other characters claimed everything available from the Temporal Agent for that recruitment, making a new recruit of that same recruitment will not make anything available to the other characters. It is not a bug, it is a typical unlock so the rewards are unlocked to be picked up one time for each line by each character and they never refresh no matter how many recruits of that type you make.

    The only recruitment that gives more rewards for having multiple recruits of the same type is Delta; since it is open to three different factions it has a few rewards particular to the faction the Delta recruit comes from, and all others on the account can claim all three versions of those few rewards if you have Delta recruits from all three factions to unlock them. Gamma, Temporal, and KDF are each one-faction recruitments so there is no possibility of more than one set of rewards for the other characters on the account.

    That said, if you have two Gamma (or whatever) recruits who have not finished everything in their widgets the rewards the other characters on the account (not the two Gamma Recruits, they cannot get anything from each other and have to complete each task in their widgets for themselves) get works like a page of check-off boxes shared between the Gamma Recruits and either one can check off a new box for the non-Gammas, but checking that same box off a second time does nothing.
