One of the patrol episodes near the end where you have to set up defense satellites-Expected, and Prepared for setting up all 3 satellites for 2nd and 3rd wave respectively (there could be one for the first wave as well, haven't had time to test it.)
Can anyone help me out with how to do this one? I'm assuming it's the Kelsid system patrol, when you set up defense satellites for some Talaxians, and while I can get up one full circle of sats before the Vaadwaur spawn, it never gives me the chance to put down more and it doesn't give me any accolades.

If you stay in one spot you can lay down 2ndary and tertiary satellites. The problem is that I haven't been able to set them in the right spots to get the accolade. They just sit in my "in progress" accolades. I am thinking about trying it with a team as I was frustrated after 4 trys.
Patrolling Kelsid- where you have to set up defense satellites-Anticipate, Expected, and Prepared for setting up all 3 satellites for the 1st, 2nd and 3rd wave respectively (Either the waves are completely random or this is bugged as I have turreted up every spot. I am going to try with a team to see if we can get every satellite up and see if it works then)
This doesn't work, tried with 4 people and did them all with time to spare.
Likely these are broken but there might be a theory that works;
The accolade wording seems a bit specific and I heard someone got the first wave accolade maybe I misunderstood. My theory is this is a space combat version of Dabo.
You have 3 shots.
Pick from 8-9 (or however many) spawns and deploy 3 turrets in each.
If you intercept first wave > accolade
Intercept 2nd wave (not 2!) > accolade
And if you intercept 3rd accolade (not 3!) > accolade.
I've yet to prove this as it's random. Being in a team may break the accolade as it has in the pass. Now MAYBE you could team up, do them all then all but 1 warp out but I can't say this would fix it either.
If people want to test this theory by all means and let the thread know.
From the tests I've done the pick 3 sides doesn't work. I'm as sure as I can be that if I deploy across the entire east flank 1-3 flanks attacked there and no accoalde.
I know that the new 800-day Veteran Reward comes with a new "Vigilant Vessel" accolade, as well as a ship upgrade token box in the mail. I know that you only get one email, but what about the accolade? Do all characters on the account get it, or just the first one that logs in?
Based on what I saw on Tribble, it looks like just one character. I saw the message "Dropped mission Vigilant Vessel" flash up on my other characters there.

Now that irks me- I opened the mail on an alt that needed the token rather than my main, on which I try to get as many accolades as possible. If I had known they were going to hand out an accolade that was character specific, I would have done things differently.
so this patrolling kelsid is bugging me like the rest of you but i did find something strange.
According to previous posts there are 3 accolades...
Anticipated -
Prepared - You deployed all 3 Defence Satellites in the direction of the second wave of Vaadwaur
Expected - You deployed all 3 Defence Satellites in the direction of the third wave of Vaadwaur
now in my accolade list Prepared and Expected are ongoing accolades, but Anticipate or Anticipated doesnt show up at all. Its not in my ongoing list and its not a completed accolade in the general accolades section (where the other two are).
Surely (dont call me shirley lol) if the other two are ongoing it should be aswell. Also Ive been wondering if the satellites you deploy have to be in order. So if you deply say north south and west and the spawn is North South West you would get the accolade but not if the spawn was west north south.
also trying to find out if there is a pattern to the spawn. will keep you updated on this.
I just heard today about two accolades in the Gerren system patrol. The mission has you either granting asylum to some Vaadwaur or turning them away. Your decision affects how many allied Vaadwaur ships you have fighting on your side the next time you play the mission. If you grant asylum a number of times then you get an accolade about the time the allied ships number two. Then if you deny asylum the numbers increase on subsequent replays until you get an accolade when the allied ships number somewhere around ten.
Soft Touch: Granted Amnesty to the Vaadwaur in "Difficult Choices" and dropped to the minimum number of allies possible. 10pts
Flip-Flop: Denied amnesty to the Vaadwaur and attained the maximum number of allies after having dropped to the minimum. 10pts
You end up having to do it almost 20 times, but the mission does go very fast. I used it as an excuse to grind out another specialization point.
I don't always feel like endlessly grinding for hours with little to gain from it. But when I do, I choose Star Trek Online
Line in the snow - complete 10 full defenses against assimilated snowmen
dont know how many points it is unfortunately. You dont have to prevent every snowborg from escaping as ive ran it twice with 32 and 3 escappees respectively and still have 2/10 on the accolade
but not certain as i only have the first one and not sure what counts as helping a gingerbreadman. Is it just killling snowmen so those few that arent frozen can escape or is it the gingerbread council members?
I think its helping the councilmen. Every run there are at least five (?) gingerbread men, who escape, but i needed more than two runs to complete the acco with 10 guys.
btw. i found some hidden recipes, but they arent showing up in my inventory or elsewhere. How do i get those missions?

Not sure about "hiddden" recipes i know you can collect a present on the winter invasion map that turns into a recipe once opened should be in your inventory. Then you take that to neelix and he tells you where on the map to get teh inggredients to make the food
Out of curiosity, are "Gingerbuddy" and "Sweet-toothed" (collect 50 candies) new this year? I've completed "Gingerfriend" and "Brought Enough for Everyone" on my main, but I don't see these other accolades on my list as in progress. Then again, I haven't run Winter Invasion yet this year.
So the only new QWW accolade is "A Line in the Snow"?
That's what I'd like to know. I got all of the previous ones. Want to know if this is the only new one to get this year.

No gingerbuddy gingerfriend are 2013 accolades as is sweet-toothed if you find them on your accolade list they have 2013 on the accolade.
Sweet-Toothed should be showing as in progress at least it did in mine but the ginger ones dont show in progress even though they are
Just noticed this: accolade "Raid Over Bubbling Bay (Elite)" from the old, preDR Viscous Cycle Elite was changed/renamed to "Raid Over Bubbling Bay (Advanced)". "New" acco "Raid Over Bubbling Bay (Elite)" was added to the new VCE, obviously.

Presumably there is one for killing them too.

I didn't think to check, and just made my own Kobali Prime Explorer Accolade Map with screenshots of all the locations. Enjoy.

My bad.
