    And how will you get in once it goes live? Is it a reward based on the difficulty slider?

    The difficulty slider doesn't apply to STFs.

    That said, you get the Borg Boff by:
    **Spoiler**
    in Khitomer Accord, going down an alley way that isn't part of your objective (or so I hear)
    **End**

    That said, the upcoming accolade feature supposedly has a ton of unlockable rewards attached. Gozer had some great things to say in the Neutral Zone Podcast interview. :D

    **?**
    **Collect Liberate Borg Science Officer**

    Fixed that for you

    Khitomer Accords eh? Too bad I can't access it because you need to beat the Cure to get it, and the Cure is a badly designed disaster.

    Thanks for this brilliant design Cryptic.

    Edit: And this accolade system..... it's going to revolve around STFs isn't it. :mad:

    ...and thank you for revealing the spoiler Darren was being courteous enough to hide.:rolleyes:

    No, it won't.

    In fact, many of the accolades (like kill X number of Borg, visit X, Y, Z) have been counting since launch.

    When accolades release this month, according to Gozer, we should see quite a few ding (if you've been leveling).

    I wonder if we'll get an accolade for killing Vito'D.

    :)

    Wait, a borg science officer? Do you mean a free-will borg (I.E. One) or a liberated ex-borg? (I.E. Seven of Nine [Tertiary Adjunct of Unimatrix 6]) Why the extra title? I was bored.

    Accolades come from more than STFs, they are meant to come from regular missions as well.

    I.E SS Azura saving all the injured crewmen gets you an accolade. They are coming out with mission re-playing so that people can go back and get those accolades later thus everyone has a shot at it.

    That said, worthless going back for an Accolade in SS Azura as an RA5 unless its level dependent. What the hell am I supposed to do with some MK I item eh ?

    If they all rewarded Boffs... that might be interesting but unlikely to happen.

    However, the current Borg BOFF is not that impressive anyway. Superior Neural blast ... worthless power and thats assuming the npc AI can even use their powers properly. Dosent even have Efficient so at best its going to be a novelty officer with traits that are useless for ground and space. Unless of course you want to use a Science officer as a tank... then its of use.

    "Enter the Matrix" would be a good title for a "death by viral matrix accolade" :p

    But, yes, you can test drive that Borg Officer on Tribble apparently.

    Terradome is also quite lovely. I won't spoil it.

    Neural Blast does stack. My Captain and BO both use it together and I'd love to see what three stacks of it do.

    Fair enough, I always expect the worst.
