How Roxy Got Her Groove Back....Conversion

While the Rep UI is convenient for small #'s of BNP's and R-Omarks to be converted, after completion of the Rep Systems these can start to pile up quickly.

Why Not....let a professional with experience handle Bulk Conversion to Dilithium Ore containers,

that's right, let good ol Roxy swap over those piles of Marks and BNP's in a larger quantity, saving the player some tedium of putting in small amounts to the UI, and gnawing away actual "play" time.

Surely Roxy can make the transition from salvage and tech, to Marks and BNP's, and would add a small but rewarding reason to enjoy the promenade of DS9. :)

    No.
    PWE let Roxy down.
    She'll only be happy trading our EDC's and Borg Salvage for Requisitions and Retro STF Gear.
    She exchanged Salvage for Dilithium ONLY because she was happily employed...

    I hate the Season 7 STF changes btw.
    NO to ARC

    How about they give her a proper field posting on New Romulus or something (after all she's an Omega Veteran at least) and close down the (now totally obsolete) stand on DS9 and move D'Vak to OPS or something.

    Looks like Roxy is going to go back to being a Drozana dancer

    I offered Commander Roxy the Position of XO aboard the ABRAMS shortly after the Rep. system was implemented but she turned it down. Said something about putting in for a posting at Earth working for Star Fleet Security.

    There's a point, she could be Quinn's personal bodyguard from the swarms of invading KDF ghostbusters.

    I like the idea proposed by the OP a lot.

    True, it was only funny when we were doing it to them.

    After starting a new job I've had less time to spend in-game, having Roxy or another NPC vendor to swap BNP/Omarks in for dilithium would just be an over all better solution to the chipping away at actual in game time that players spend with the UI conversion.

    Surely this would help dilithium production for smaller fleets as well since they could spend more time on gathering resources rather then converting currencies.

    +1 for OP

    Totaly agree with the OP on that.

    As it is for now Roxy has nothing to do besides looking pretty.
    While i do like pretty thinks i also don't like people be sad without a purpose to fulfill.

    Don't let Roxy totaly slack away unemploymend should not be an issue in the future.
    I don't want to see Roxy with the next update cowering drunken and addicted to ketracelwhite in a corner of DS9 or even worse selling for cheap latinum her services at the 1st City in the Orion District.

    Cryptic give Roxy a Job she deservs better!

    What Roxy needs is a command and a reality show.

    Roxy's Midnight Runners. A team of crack anti-Borg elite of the elite commandos who do raids, record videos of them, and bring occasional green volunteers with them to see if they have what it takes. And the Runners are all females.

    Then the videos can be displayed in social locations as recruitment propoga...er...public service announcements.

    Cryptic should make a storyline mission for her.

    Borg attack DS9.

    Roxy gets assimilated.

    From then onwards players experience 1-shot supertorpedo deaths when they encounter any borg ship.

    The borg... now capable of converting their own EDC's into dilithium...

    have equipped their ships with dil store items.

    The fate of the galaxy lies in your hands Captain. You must find Roxy and neutralize the threat.

    Honestly roxy's shop was much better then the menu system we have now for rep gear.

    Anyone else hate the cramped long scrolling list of items you have to shift through when looking to line up rep gear projects? When we had roxy we could easily select between mk x, xi, xii. Ground or space? no problem..!

    Give us (back) a better UI for rep gear menus!

    Please and thank you... !

    I wouldn't mind giving Roxy a purpose for being around, myself, or a reason for people to go to DS9. That said, I'm not sure that it won't end up with Cryptic getting screamed at for 'inconveniencing' everyone or something along those lines.

    Myself, I could deal with the purchasing-new-equipment part at DS9 easy, just so long as the actual rep-building missions don't require you to go there, too.
