Personally think that Dilith cost per Tech upgrade should be half current cost but still testing leveling schools to 15 to get superior takes some clicking. :P
Well, not that much clicking if you level by crafting upgrade tokens. :P I got to Ground Weapons 15 in a day of testing (from 11).

The "Unable to Upgrade Me Ship, Bucko's" is now on the bug reports boards. Thanks to other people who are glad to admit they are having the same issue. Reluctantly, of course. But glad. At least it's out there now.
It was napping, but I've awoken it. It has risen from its slumber with a ferocity only infrequently seen. Like the mighty kraken, it emerges from the depths to engulf unwary passersby. Ask not for whom the Tribble tolls--it tolls for thee.
Sorry. I got a little carried away. Always a risk later in the day.
Hey, so, I renamed and recopied my main character to Tribble, and now it wants a C-Store purchase to upgrade my Dreadnaught, either fleet or vanilla.
What the heck, man? The C-Store shows up as disabled, so now I can't upgrade a non-lockbox ship?
id like a moment of silence for the hegh'ta, a stock native tier 5 ship that never got a fleet version, and thus cant have a tier 5U version. it died alone and forgotten, its younger siblings stealing away it honor the last few years.
its not alone in its disgrace, for the gurumba and orian marauder FD cruiser at best can only hope for 10 console mk 5U, as no fleet version for them exists. they actually pushed back the fleet gurumba for so long, it cant even happen anymore.
there are still more ships that will never see the light of day again as well. K'Tanco, QulDun, Qorgh, Pach, all perfectly fine player ship models, all could have been used to fill holes in the kdf ship line up with fleet versions. they would not have even required new art assets, some even had c store refit costumes, they fleet ships should have printed free money, reusing old assets like that.
the Ki'tang at least got 1 last hurrah with the tier 5 mirror version, but its very far from what is soon to be the new baseline
you could have saved them cryptic, even if they didn't sell well, they required no new art, just whatever time it takes to hook up a new ship entity. apparently it doesn't take that long, it should be about the same as recreating a tier 5 ship in tier 5U form, whats the difference really?
its not to late! you have until DR launch to get fleet versions of these ship in once and for all! you got a lot of practice right now on "copy/pasting" ships, there's no better time.
I think they wanted to release them slowly as incentives for new fleet holdings, but...OOPS!!

Agreed. I own the Garumba, will pay $$$$ for a newer version. So sad. So very sad.
Still no fix on the Multivector Advanced Escort mini-nacelle bug on any saucer other than the Prometheus. Any idea when this is going to be fixed as its been there for at least a full season?

started upgrading tribble alt to lvl 15 ground gear crafting so....
1.) double-click to select 200 Dilithium rewards boxes,
2.) double-click to open 200 Dilithium rewards boxes,
3.) scroll to select 20hr upgrade project,
4.) click to select, then click to start,
5.) double-click to "Finish Now" pay the 20k dilith and continue
6.) repeat steps 3-5 till level 15 in school of choice.
Yep hardly any "clicking" involved at all. :P

"Unlimited In-Game Mail Access" must mean something different to Cryptic than it does to English.
you don't. the phase seems to be moving more towards what it will be like on live.if you didnt have it before the last patch your s.o.l.

Anyhow, *Golf Clap* to this post!!!!
