I have never played and mmo before STO i do love this game but the only thing i find myself playing mission's almost always solo. I tried to beat the crystaline entity for almost 2 days now i travelled to the few instances to find a group battling the entity but i can only find about 5 per shards if they where all queued up together we have a team of about 20 players and stand a chance to beat it. Id love to have some type of queue like the pvp one for missions.
Interesting that the term you choose to use is "shard"... That's pretty much a holdover from older MMOs and or MUDs. Having claimed to never played an MMO before I'd wonder where you picked up that particular term.

lol i picked that up from the forums i try to emegucate myself
so i guess im not the only one having a hard time here with the CE i was using the ce as and example.
Pfft I gave up .... I tried every day for 4 weeks to get on a team to beat it and there was always a damn griefer :mad:
I hopped in once since season one and it was a friggin joke One time had it down to like 3% (before Season One) and someone came in and just barreled right in and ruined it!

Does this make sence guys
From trying to do the CE last weekend with my Capt level Cruiser, I believe it is now limiting the encounter to 5 player groups. At one point we had about 30 of us Captians and we were never able to get more than 5 in any single encounter. It kept splitting us up into 5's.
The best way to beat the CE is to ignore it. Besides, once you're finished with the Romulan Front, it's off to Cardassian space and then the Borg - you'll never see the CE again ... except in your "Hail StarFleet" list. The CE is pointless and only for those that like to torture themselves.

Cryptic should just delete it.
Except that if there wasnt a CE encounter people would ask for one. It is a Lore thing.
They can fix it. It was way too easy in beta and they went overboard making it harder. They just need to adjust it again.

but does having a queue for "some" missions make sence
Back before, there were no shortages of 20 people zones mostly all failing to kill it.
Plus some people might've stopped trying.
OHH. ME!!!!!!!!!! THATS ME THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
last time i gave it a go, 20 of us brought it down to 20% health, but then it would heal itself, and we couldn't get it lower than that.
it is also a matter of WHEN you play the mission too though.
i want to ask once again- why did cryptic overbuff it again?
Guilty as charged. Gave up awhile ago on the Crystal Entity.

That's why fleet actions should be done by fleets and not only by random groups...
because im ltn cmdr im a little behind my fleet
