I was just thinking and came up with an idea for a new (amusing) DOFF assignment. Thought maybe we could start a thread and perhaps the devs could use the ideas in-game if they like them....
I'll start with:
Medical DOFF Assignment. "Starship Pilot Optical Exam." Requires 1x Doctor, 1x Conn Officer, and 2x Security Officers. (Cause they would have to make him go.)
Clean Waste Pipework - Requires: Officer who has p****ed off the captain :P
Escort Cadet Visit / Academy Tour Group - Requires: Advisor & 2x Security - poss new doffs on critical?
If feds get telepathic resistance training should kdf get telepathic interrogation training?
Negotiate purchase of R&D materials - Requires Trader - perhaps dont make it a disaster, fail, suceed, critical mission but a quality based one, fail, common, uncommon etc
Recapture escaped lab animals - Requires: signicant proportion of the crew - on disaster find the animals went back into their cages as your back was turned after somehow managing to disable the safeties on the holodeck (again... )
Find ship prankster and 'explain' to him that the captains ship models are not to be messed with..... - Requires: 3x security officers perhaps on critical success the blighter tells you were he hid them and you get a new model to put on your shelf in your office off the bridge?
All I can think of is "Free the ship from temporal anomaly," requiring maybe a Warp Theorist and Dev Lab Scis, and if you fail, the assignment automatically repeats.
=================
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...!)

heh, followed by 'survive visit from special agents humourless and even more humourless of the dept of temporal investigations' when you succeed? :rolleyes:
Maybe several different iterations of a "Second Contact" mission, each with different requirements. Some species may respond better to honor, or aggressiveness, or tactfulness.
Security: Defend (race) Freighter from raiders. Rewards prisoners, weapons and contraband.
Operations: Host a movie night. Show members of the crew a piece of entertainment from mid 20th-century Earth.

Actually... there ARE diplomatic assignments that are basically security escorts. BUT there are a variety of traits wanted or not wanted.

The reward for the holodeck malfunction crit should be James Moriarty.
"Susse-thrai" had been the name bestowed upon her, half in anger, half in affection, by her old crew on Bloodwing; the keen-nosed, cranky, wily old she-beast, never less dangerous than when you thought her defenseless, and always growing new teeth far back in her throat to replace the old ones broken in biting out the last foe's heart. Romulans: left one homeworld, lost another, third time's the charm?
