Thank you for this!
"Critics who say that the optimistic utopia Star Trek depicted is now outmoded forget the cultural context that gave birth to it: Star Trek was not a manifestation of optimism when optimism was easy. Star Trek declared a hope for a future that nobody stuck in the present could believe in. For all our struggles today, we haven’t outgrown the need for stories like Star Trek. We need tales of optimism, of heroes, of courage and goodness now as much as we’ve ever needed them."
-Thomas Marrone
You're the bestest.
Thank You.
A lot.
Should this change hit Holodeck, will this buff apply to the MK XI Jem Set from the 2800 mission rewards as well?
Just curious.
Still nothing regarding the bugged KDF Omega Force and KHG tailor options?
How about allowing Orion Interceptors, Tachyon Drones and Marauding Force to be used on Jem'Hadar Escort Carrier?
ETA on Romulan Flamethrower?
You're awesome!
Click here for my Foundry tutorial on Creating A Custom Interior Map.
Prelude to the return of the Flamethrower?
From what devs said earlier on it, no. It's intended solely as a buff to the MK XII set to make it slightly more viable before switching to STF-based gear.
That's what I figured. I'm fine with it.
EXCEPT FOR ALL OF MY HOPES BEING CRUSHED!
But other than that I'm fine with it.
No, it's a perk of the MK XII set, to make the upgrade wroth the lobi spent for it.
Side note: look forward to actually working with the Jemmy space set to make a ship the dominion would be proud to fly themselves.
Sounds awesome, may just use this set once I get the lobi and do a themed jemhadar build.
Loving this... thought Im curious how much of a boost that really is...
Didnt you guys already do this? Also... how does it make sense? Fire isnt energy... it would have no frequency that the borg could adapt to... and do the Borg really need to adapt to it they already adapt to everything else in the game, barring bladed weapons...
So... Lockboxes are cheaper... thats good. But I have to buy 20? Ummm... so why that arbitrary limitation? Why not just let us buy them one at a time at the 20 dilithium price?
WTF? Why can the borg adept kinetic demage? The step is, that they can adapt against swards, lirpas and so on????? Thats really a flop cryptic an very unlogical.
The price of the Current Lock Box on the Dilithium Store has been reduced from 200 Dilithium each, to 10 Dilithium each.
They must now be purchased 20 at a time.
While I would like to spend some Tribble-dilithium to buy some Dominion lockboxes on Tribble, and open them there...
The lockboxes do not show up in the dilithium store to buy, at 10 dil each, or 200. Never have. Never seen a lockbox drop on Tribble either.
The drop rates on Holodeck are really low, too. Playing full time since this began, and across all characters, I have had exactly 10 drop that I picked up.
Can't buy the keys on Tribble to open them, either.
So just what does this change do on Tribble?
This made me 'lol' for real! You're sooo right
God, lvl 60 CW. 17k.
The Borg still don't adapt to kinetic damage, that'd be just silly. They adapt to the plasma proc, which is plasma damage, not kinetic damage. The Borg can't adapt to the plasma grenade's kinetic damage, only to the plasma fire it leaves behind, which deals plasma damage. :cool:
Winning.
Oh, now don't tell me you want in on all this! Well, ok. Look this that Egg Pawn hanging outside your window, pointing his laser rifle at you, waiting for my next order. He's doing his part. He helps conquer the weak-minded. He roboticizes the weak-bodied. Heck, he even helps keep the useless people from causing any trouble, but you know what? Join. Find the closest Nataran Empire roboticization center near you and join the ranks, before the ranks find you. Oh, I know, you figure it must be so satisfying to know I basically rule the world now, and you know what? It is, but do you want to know the true definition of satisfaction? Well, let me tell you a little story. One day, you see a brand new event. They're giving out boxes that give old event stuff. Your dilithium is plentiful. You buy a whole lot of Phoenix packs on your main, and open them all. You get one epic token. Then, you decide, that since you have all the Breen ships and don't give a damn about the others, you exchange it for an ultra rare, and grab yourself a Jem'Hadar Attack Ship and for the hell of it, a Voth Bulwark. You open both, leaving the Bulwark in your vast masses of starships as you jump into the bugship and deck it out, deck by deck, into the most awesome Jem'Hadar ship you can. You fly it. You enjoy it. Eventually, you get bored and leave, leaving the old Bulwark never flown... until later. Your main is long complete. Your new alt main, based off some character you pulled out of nothing just to explain away some starship being in service without the command of your dear admiral, is also complete. Mostly. Their reps and doffs are hard at work, getting you stuff. You realize the potential, and head back for your dear admiral, pull the most Voth themed build you can out of thin air, and suit up in your giant ship in the shape of you know what. You head out... and cause all sorts of havoc. Enemies scream out your name as their very life is drained away by your swarms of Aceton Assimilators. They complain to the devs of your OPness when you revive yourself from death every time you die. Do you show any form of mercy? No. After all, this isn't the United Federation of Planets, this is mother frakkin' Starfleet, where you explore strange new worlds and kick butt never kicked before. Oh, and you realize that I just wrote another speech rivaling your own signature. Cool. Oh, wait, that's just the original draft, it is part of my signature now. Oh, and yes, I am aware that I have become a Canadian Regent; one day, sooner than you'd expect, we'll suddenly decide to take over the world and declare an "alliance", and I shall become it's Regent. You know, like the Klingon-Cardassian Alliance in the mirror universe of our beloved Star Trek. Oh, who'll we be taking over with? I dunno, maybe [REDACTED], or maybe aliens from outer space. Guess you'll have to wait and find out, won't we? Until then, don't ask too many questions, or else my Breen allies on Titania might pick up on your -- [REDACTED BY BREEN CONFEDERACY FOR REASONS] Also, psst... keep an eye out for flying Tribbles! Also walls. Big, great walls, separating entire continents apart. Walls patrolled by Tribbles. Flying Tribbles. Flying Nukara Tribbles. Don't worry, it's not like they were on Venus with a herd of Tholians or anything, they just like the extreme heat and brutal weather like acid rain and hurricane force winds as the norm. Oh, and definitely keep your eye out on any two-tailed foxes, because if they ain't glowing, they're definitely an imposter. Possibly an Undine, we caught one of those once in my place once. Oh, and if you find a two-tailed fox that doesn't like the cold... most certainly ask him to say sorry. If he refuses, DESTROY HIM WITH A DOOMSDAY MACHINE, BECAUSE THERE'S NOTHING ELSE THAT WOULD BE ENOUGH AGAINST SUCH AN OVERPOWERED IMPOSTER!
tr;dr, I am winning last post wins 3.0. Thank you for your time.

I see them just fine.. click on the dilithium store icon in your HUD, choose special items and boxes, and tada...
I AM NOT A FAN OF PWE!!!!
MEMBER SINCE JANUARY 2010
When will we hear about a fix for the helmets, missing chest pieces and the boots that bin broken for over months now?
They don't adapt to the kinetic damage. They adapt to the plasma DoT the plasma burn inflicts left by the plasma grenade.
i think i speak for everyone playing STO if i say: AWESOME !
now all you need to do is remove the dropping 3D LockBoxes in SPACE !
anyone who is serious about opening LockBoxes needs to buy them anyway (either Dil-Store or Exchange) because the drop rate by now is so low that you can't just play and pick em up any longer.
The dropping boxes are still annoying enough, and the feel like cheap advertisement.
If you make em cheap like this in the Dil-Store i think everybody who wants to open them would be OK with just spending the little dil and not having to see them floating around in-game any longer.
Also, disruptor quad cannons cannot be fitted to Jemmy HEC, needs rectifying.
It has become really annoying when fighting the Tholians.
Ships weapons where offline at least 1/3 of the time, i hope it will be now way less powerful.
I do hope so
