Space Daily for Omega Marks

This may have been mentioned in the past but I would like to see a Borg Space daily, similar to the Romulan daily, that would award omega marks. The new daily wouldn't have to award as many marks as the Romulan one, which gives 60 marks I believe.
I would just like another way to grind Omega marks (in space) while avoiding STF?s. The Borg red alert is too infrequent, gives low omega marks and is failure prone.
Now, if things are working as intended, just ignore this post.:)
Thanks for listening.

That being said, I would like to be able to run STF's to get ~100 romulan marks just like i can with omega.
Sure, some people would probably just sit and farm Borg all day; but how is that different from grinding STFs all the time? It's a time sink either way.
Perhaps tagging borg infected animals?
"Last Engage! Magical Girl Origami-san" is in print! Now with three times more rainbows.
Support the "Armored Unicorn" vehicle initiative today!
Thanks for Harajuku. Now let's get a real "Magical Girl" costume!
A daily for Omega is unnecessary.
wile this is true most of us have done the STFs and invasion zones so much before the addition of the omega rep that they are mind numbingly boring
Implementing something like this for Gamma Orionis seems painfully obvious. I came into the game in S6, and I have only ever experienced GO sector as "the space I fly through to reach the B'Tran Cluster."
I'm sure your DPS is great, but as Kahless said, "a petaQ with high system mastery is still a petaQ." (Well, he should have said it...!)
While I agree that getting Omega Marks are really easy to get (500-600 minimum for the original 6 on Elite - which, incidentally, will also give 7k minimum Dil), for me the simple answer to the question 'why?' is simply that the sector block is 'there' and it's supposed to be the site of borg front line. In the old days, you had to go there to do STF's, now, that's not the case so I fully agree with the idea that it should be a place to get omega marks - if for no other reason than to decrease the number of people who have no idea what they're doing joing the Elite STF queues. It may also awaken people to the fact that Terradome even exists...
A patrol mission similar to the Tau Dewa sounds like a perfect solution and if they threw in an accolade or two and a small (480?) dilithium or Mk XII [Borg] gear reward, you would definately see me there.
the stfs are soooooo boring in the meantime.
other ways to get marks would make the grind festival less boring
That what the Sector space Borg Red Alerts are (each has a 20 hour cooldown and awards 10 OM and 480 Dil per successful completion.)
[Now if only they's fix the Red Alert system itself so you wouldn't end up warping into an empty instance 9 out of 10 times...]
PWE ARC Drone says: "Your STO forum community as you have known it is ended...Display names are irrelevant...Any further sense of community is irrelevant...Resistance is futile...You will be assimilated..."
This might encourage more people to do the more unpopular/ground missions more regularly, especially if there is an accolade for doing the wrapper 15/35/70 times.
Let's face reality: Omega marks come from deferi and STF.
Asking for daily space missions simply because you're too lazy for a 15-20 minutes STF that is just plain wrong.
Perform well in elite and you get 90-100 Omega. Unnecessary to add more Omega space missions.
A Deferi mission also rewards a anti Borg or Borg Prosthesis weapon. Mostly a hard mission.
That's a nice goodie too. Only used one though on my Borg Boff.
Plasma weapon, not the best but fun.
Do you know me personally? I don?t think you do.
My work ethic has nothing to do with my suggestion and everything to do with avoiding the caustic and obnoxious attitudes that have been known to inhabit STF?s.
A good example of this attitude is the type of player that writes a derogatory assumption about a person without actually knowing him.
It'd be nice to have patrols for Omega as well though. Sometimes all my Stfs are on cooldown, so I have to wait to get more. SO MANY MARKS REQUIRED!!!!
The Sector Patrol and Radiation Scan missions are also good marks/time (70 marks for completing both missions plus I normally get ~150 radiation reports which if you save up until you have 300 basically means 30 marks every two days).
The Romulan ground missions, however, I wouldn't touch with a ten-foot laser-pole. The rewards/time are just not worth it.
Comparing Omega and Romulan marks I would say that Romulan marks require considerably less effort than Omega marks but are more gated in terms of calendar time.
What's the Deferia Borg mission, and how do I get it? I go there and the only daily events I see are rescuing Defari citizens from the Breen, re-takng a dilithium mining station from the Breen, and saving an outpost... from the Breen. Nothing about the Borg anywhere =(
Go to defera and beam down to defera defense zone. Talk to various people and you'll find missions.
