    I think the more relevant questions are... can you cancel fleet projects yet, and will this finally make people question what some of the more obscure project reqs are like before starting them?

    I mean.. why is any fleet wasting resources on a chef at all? Did we not learn from the bartender? Does it offer anything more than your ship's chef? Heck, even one of those colony support fleet credit missions is more useful to a fleet than an NPC that does nothing special.

    Unless its somehow required for the fleet bases... I really, really hope that isn't the case. Would not surprise me, but I hope its not what's happening here.

    I can only speak for our fleet, but we do think about the way we want to go and what projects to do in what order. Since the Bartender mission we knew that the chef project would ask for specific food items. Only problem, nobody knew which ones those would be. So many of us started to just keep any item that was not replicable or couldn't be bought from a vendor. Once we knew what it was asking for we had to decide wether we try to run through this as one of the first fleets and try to avoid the sky-rocking prices as we saw them after we had finished the bartender project (we were lucky back there) or do we want to wait with it until we are sure that the Officers can fill it up all by themselves if needed. Apparently we decided to go for it. Don't ask me how but we managed to fill more than half of the hearts needed so far, without paying those redicoulus prices that you see on the exchange at the moment. But even for a big fleet with more than 400 active members like ours this project is more than a challange. Although I am certain we will finish this project in less than one week from now, I wouldn recommend going for it to any other fleet.
    To live in a perfect world just expect less than nothing...

    Let me understand: Klingon Hearts of Targ are not available on the replicator with a Klingon Purple Chef like the Eggs with the Cardassian Purple Chef? :confused:

    Can i only drop them? :eek:

    This is a very easy fix for Cryptic -- make it so Klingon chefs can replicate this item. There aren't enough on the exchange at any price to do the Chef project (which calls for 1000).

    I hope they do make a change to this in the future to help out smaller fleets than ours to achieve this massive task. But with determination we will succeed!!

    Thats just adding to the problem of making people think this **** is worth way to much when they should not be going for that much. Really want to see limits put on what certain things can sell for.

    There is a mission where 1 drops almost every time - find it.

    I heard a rumor that the amount required might change. 1000 is pretty ridiculous, considering the extremely low drop rate. Any chance this rumor is true? Or has anyone found a semi-reliable source for them?

    very helpful....

    1 almost always pops up during the colony invasion fleet mission with the Klingons as the Npc's

    I have gotten them on the others but it seems the one with the Klingon one drops one all the time - or it used to - have not done it in a month.

    Of course it is a need or greed loot drop - so you are betting with 5 others - not as big a problem if you are all fleet members.

    hope that helps

    I got 15 running colony invasion - that with the need/green loot table - and I have not run it in awhile - but I know where I got them.

    ok so it's a fleet action and not a mission - same thing - it can be done over and over endlessly - of course klingons don't pop up every time as the Npc's.

    Sounds like its a player-made rumor as no dev has commented on the matter.

    I reiterate that this is a very easy fix for Cryptic -- make it so Klingon chefs can replicate this item. There aren't enough on the exchange at any price to do the Chef project (which calls for 1000).

    It does drop in missions but its really rare.

    If it was so common they would not be 1MIL EC and only 170 or so on the exchange.

    There is a guy on here who claims he has 2000 and is supplying the exchange a hundred at a time - and I mostly believe it - I have several at $1.5M which were 50 back - then 4 sold and a few minutes later there were another 50+ at $980k

    So either he or Cryptic is supplying them

    You suggesting Cryptic is earning EC?

    What, they need a couple of mils to replicate a few emergency medical shrinks? :D

    I sold one on exchange yesterday for 1 000 000 Ec, it's not a joke.
    It's one of the most rare item ingame, so prices goes up

    Yeah!!! I sold the 3 I had for 987k each! Woo Hoo! Hording FTW!

    I've seen them on the exchange for as low as 50k, if I had known the stupid fleet base projects would need an insane amount, I would have bought all I could find for 50k! ;)

    I brought up the matter with BranFlakes on TTS yesterday and he has forwarded the feedback to the devs who are re-evaluating the inputs. Hopefully it'll be something more reasonable, like Klingon Octopus?

    Sadly, it shouldn't take player feedback for them to realize that those requirements are insane. It shows a level of obliviousness to whats going on in the game.

    No. Foundry authors have no control over what loot drops in their missions....
