    Omg. So Branflakes tweeted a little while ago that the patch notes for LoR are 24 pages long in word, using size 11 font. And that he's typing them up right now. I was wondering why they weren't up yet. Poor dude isn't sleeping tonight haha.

    Something to read during the downtime :P

    Been looking forward to this since I got to play it on Tribble. Although I expect I will not be able to play, opening evening. There is probably going to be log-in Queue's that are insane. We'll see.

    No character slot. Drag.

    Will f2pers still get 2 slots now that the Klingons start from level one or will the f2pers be reduced to 1 slot?

    Yes, all players get an additional character slot :)

    There seems to be an inconsistency in the patch notes:
    The duration of all Emergency Power buffs has been standardized at 30 seconds.
    ...
    Emergency Power to Engines:
    Increased the duration of the Flight Speed bonus from 5 seconds up to 20 seconds.
    ...
    Emergency Power to Auxiliary:
    Generators, and Subspace Decompiler for 20 seconds when used.
    The Stealth and Stealth Detection attributes of this power now last 20 seconds, up from 5 seconds.
    ...
    Emergency Power to Shields:
    The Shield Damage Resistance and Shield Regeneration attributes of this power now last 20 seconds, down from 30 seconds.
    ...
    Emergency Power to Weapons:
    The Energy Weapon damage bonus of this power now lasts 20 seconds, up from 5 seconds.

    I thought they were all adjusted to have 30 second durations, not 20 seconds, and that seems to be reinforced by the first line.

    The universe has a wonderful sense of humor. The trick is learning how to take a joke.

    Yeah...

    That one made me scratch my head after reading it twice.

    :confused:

    I think the 30 seconds is supposed to be the duration between use ... ???

    Just got a response from BranFlakes about it on twitter and he indicated its possibly a typo, hes looking into it.

    I think it's because all of the notes were generated via copying the Tribble notes. Even Tribble isn't immune to sometimes-confusing patch notes: when they were fiddling with the Warbirds' base power levels, they had conflicting notes as to the bonuses on the T'liss when they temporarily bumped the base power up to 45.

    Brandon, aside from the EPtX duration typos there also seems to be another one regarding EPS Manifold Efficiency:
    Space - EPS Manifold Efficiency:
    Using a Battery for one subsystem also gives 25% of its effect to other subsystems.

    I thought it was changed to apply a flat 20 power to other subsystems on usage of a battery, as well as 10 power to other subsystems when Emergency Power to X was used?
    Resist viewer! See shield/hull resists! Read about it here!

    That's indeed how this trait worked a day or two ago on Tribble.

    And yes, all the buffs from EPtX abilities (power buff and additional buffs) are AFAIK 30 seconds on Tribble. The posted 20 s duration was one of the steps WAY back on them.
    TOIVA, Toi Vaxx, Toia Vix, Toveg, T'vritha, To Vrax: Bring in the Allegiance class.
    Toi'Va, Ti'vath, Toivia, Ty'Vris, Tia Vex, Toi'Virth: Add Tier 6 KDF Carrier and Raider.
    Tae'Va, T'Vaya, To'Var, Tevra, T'Vira, To'Vrak: Give us Asylums for Romulans.

    Don't make ARC mandatory! Keep it optional only!

    ya.... the EPt skills better work like they do on tribble right now, with none of that 20 second TRIBBLE, or my desire to role a romulan, and keep playing at all, will be about zero.

    How they are on Tribble now is how they will go live tomorrow -- so it sounds like a typo, but I will verify before updating.

    2pm it will come down over here, plus 6 hours, a hour before bed and deep into european prime time... so much cosmic's comment about defending the downtime.

    hopefully the american prime time is hit just as hard with a server crash so it equals out, that way i have nothing to complain about.

    anyway, may put in that hour and maybe 2 when the server comes back up, but i would really be looking towards the 22nd realistically. Need to get back on the game and finish up now.
