I am out at the station. I have bought a bunch of items so I could upgrade through the exchange. They are right there in my inventory and when I go back to Romain, it still says I do not own them. Blew a bunch of money to buy the stuff to upgrade that she wanted (even thought it is way below my current level) and now it still does not work???
I'm having the same problem.......have well over a hundred items like anomalies and other sensor readings and always the same response when you try to turn them in........go get more before you can do anything.
I wish someone out there had a straight answer about what you need to do to unlock Memory Alpha.

You collect samples and items, then take them to Romaine and she makes them into rare items. Think of it like some games have "enchant" effects added to your weapons. To open further levels at Memory Alpha you need to create 7000 credits worth of items with Romain. I suggest the MKIV phasers - you only need to make about five of those. Buy them at Starbase 01 then take them to Memory Alpha.

I get all of that. I keep reading threads on unlocking it. Seems pretty straight forward.
My issue is that when I go to her, it keeps sayinng I need items to upgrade. I them go buy the items she says I need from the exchange. I go back and it still says I do not have the items.
I have been looking for the most basic versions of things she sells on the exchange. But, maybe I am not getting the really basic version I would get buying at home? Not sure.
Seems like this should be a really major part of the game since yo are collecting data all the time. They seem to want you to go there and trade a lot. But, seems like it is just annoying most folks.

Im not sure but it seems like your missing something here...
1) Gather data
2) purchase relavent common items from Earth Spacedock vendors. IE Common MK II Torpedo Launcher from space items vendor.
3) Go to memory alpha and purchase items from store.
I brought 5 - level 2 TRIBBLE. ship phazers, unbound to Romaine and all she says is get more anomolies before she will do anything with me........I already have over 200 of them and put them into the bank there.......how many more does it take ??
And before I can do anything else at Memory Alpha I have to make Romaine happy first.
Hold on.....now that the game is online again maybe I can get this to work
Nope, can't buy anything from Romaine but I did sell her over 7000 worth of stuff including 5 L-2 ship's phazers.
I can sell all those artifacts to the store for nothing ..............is that a good idea ?

Two things...if you're buying it off the exchange you're paying too much. And, of course, if you're buying it off the exchange, you're NOT buying the regular items. Romaine won't upgrade an item that is green, blue or purple. It has to be WHITE. Go buy them at Starbase 01 in Sol.

Its not 7000cr worth its 25 of each anomoly, I got less than 6000 worth off her. Otherwise the people doing only hypos could get it done when they cant even doing 1000 of them. :rolleyes:

Secondly she wont tell you when you are done, you just go to the next set of people and they will have a store option.
Edit: dont know why it double posted there.. told when I did the first one I had to wait 45 seconds before posting again.

See, no. Five phaser arrays and you're done.

You 100% sure its only 5? Im just pointing out that 7000cr isnt the mark, that its actually 25 of each anomoly spent not the credit value. I may have to try again with an alt.
With my current char I did it with
3xLarge Hypo
3xLarge Power Cell
3xPersonal Shield Mk2 171 Cap
1xPersonal Shield Mk2 310 Reg
1xDisruptor Bolt Dual Pistols Sweep Mk2
1xPhaser Beam Array Mk2 Sub
1xPhoton Torpedo Launcher Mk2 CritA
Hence why I said 25 of each anomoly, 5 phasers are only 10 of the final 3 items.
The reason I chose those items above, is because I got them as drops so no cost to me. Though you can usually find the items for crafting in the exchange under the cost to buy them from a vendor.
Ok, I sold Romaine 5 - L-2 ship's phazers (white), 25 alien artifacts, 25 mineral samples, 25 radiation samples and a bunch of other TRIBBLE.
There was no option to upgrade anything including the phazers.
And nothing appears to have changed.........Romaine says I still need to collect more anomalies.
And I can't do anything else.....they all say I have to talk to Romaine first.
Romaine will she still does to me, go find Marrissa, Dren or Anichent and see if they have a store option on them. There is NO notification when to move on. All 3 of them still tell me to do more for romaine, but have the store option.
btw I didnt know you could give/sell her anomolies I just bought the items I posted above

Can't do anything with Marrissa, Dren or Anichent and they have no stores.
Romaine still wants more anomalies and I can't do anything else with her except sell more stuff to her store.
I think it's a waste of time selling anomalies & samples to Romaine's store for 0 credits........does this actually accomplish anything ?
I'm well over 7,000 credits of stuff I've sold her.......do I just keep going till something happens ??
It would be handy if I knew where the goal is, maybe this is just a big waste of time.
Stop. Don't sell anything to Romaine. That is not how it works.
First off make sure you have all your anomalies in your personal inventory along with the items you want to upgrade.
Then when you go to her store you select which item you want to upgrade to and then buy it from her. She will take the white item from your inventory and modify it into a new upgraded version with better stats.
You have to do 7000 credits worth of items to open up the next tier of people.
So to recap : DO NOT SELL ANOMALY SAMPLES TO ROMAINE. THAT IS JUST WASTING THE SAMPLES.
yeah its buying items.. though I doubt the 7000cr line cause I didnt buy that much before opening the next store.
Doesnt mean its not true just means it isnt the only way.
You buy the items from romaines store once either spending 7000cr or 25 in each anomoly (Im not sure which is right just know I didnt spent 7000cr, probly both are) the other 3 will open thier stores.
Just note you dont have to rush to do all this, I was Lt Commander 6 when I opened the others, anything you create from romaine can just go onto exchange if you dont need it so you can do this at any time.
Thanks guys for saying what the real deal is with Romaine.
Unfortunately I already sold most of my samples to her so I have to pretty much start collecting them again........I'm a Lt. Commander 8.
That was the only thing I could do with her was sell them and no one said any different before now so I thought that was how it was done.
There are lots of us that don't know all the tricks to this game and there's no on-line help for most of this.
Yeah, I did not realize what was needed, I only upgraded hypos and energy packs and could never go past her, I could not buy phasers from the local exchange so I never tried them.
so I just dumped all my anomalies and gave up on it
At least now I know how to do it, so when I start leveling up my alt I will know what to do.
