I had 400 Q-mendations left from last year's event. So I've got mine now.
The locations do apparently change every 4-6 hours.
Bajor (space) and Defera were the only ones I had problems with. Bajor (space) can be gotten around with the Crack the Mirror mission and Defera shouldn't be a problem for higher level captains who can skip their way to the mission that opens it.
This is my Risian Corvette. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
Already got 400 from last time + 400 from the new FE + 5 Runs (already did 3) ... so yes ... I wouldn't bother otherwise, though ... 5 days is all I can bear at this point ...
Patch Notes : Resolved an Issue, where people would accidently experience Fun.
I got it yesterday after playing the mini-game since Thursday with a supplement of about 150 of my pile of Lobi and left over Q-mendations from last year.
Haven't actually flown it yet though.
I like starting a new toon every time large amount of new stuff hits the game and have been fiddling with her since last week.
(she has it also with the 40 Q's Account Unlock, but is only level 26 at the moment)

I had 760 Qmendation on one character from last year's event that I had planned on using on the dyson ship so I could complete it, but since I wanted to be able to use my new Kobali boff, I decided to run and Omega daily and Dust to Dust, so I was left with 200 after getting the Kobali ship.
Needless to say, I like using my breen ship more right now. I just kill things slower in the Kobali ship than in my Carrier.
Ever since learning about that ESD Space workaround (on the first day!), I have had no problem completing the Daily. I'm looking forward to adding the Xenomorph to my stable of spacecraft.
Between some left over Q-mendations and some Lobi that I had on hand I've got the ship on one of my alts that had been sitting around since last year (Kobali-themed alien as it turns out, I was amused) and I'm loving the ship. It's not tac-heavy but has enough options and built-in bonuses from the console and such that it can take a lot of punishment and bounce back quickly.
the omega particle missions don't work half the time. is it even numerically possible to get the qmendations?
I have it on 6 characters with more on the way, Having the Q-mendations from last year's anniversary helps a lot, and doing the mission (Dust to Dust) is really the only thing you'd need to do if you have 1000 Q-mendations already. I haven't done the daily yet on any of my characters, but I might do it soon just to get the Party popper.
I had the ship Day One on all four of my higher leveled Engineering characters (2 Fed and 2 KDF). I have two other Engineers that haven't done Dust to Dust yet.

Sorry should had mention ESD (space) is the one not working for me.
Try doing the ground at SFA as work around didn't work.
Despite a few hicups here and there i've collected the Qmendations every day since the event started. So, unless the game ACTUALLY breaks I see no problem with getting the ship.
Well excuse me for having enormous flaws that I don't work on.
yes i got mine on the second day i had 560 qmendations saved from last year plus 400 for doing the feature episode so i am just doing the daily event for fun and to gain a few qmendations ready for next year.
i do feel sorry for anyone who is starting from scratch though, it must be very frustraiting.
good news is they are suposed to be fixing it with the next update and i am sure they will extend the event to make up for the worst of the problems.
When I think about everything we've been through together,
maybe it's not the destination that matters, maybe it's the journey,
and if that journey takes a little longer,
so we can do something we all believe in,
I can't think of any place I'd rather be or any people I'd rather be with.

same here, haven't missed a day across 3 toons so far

I'm going to name at least one of mine Bhantkara.go to SFA and look near the water for Omegas
heh I went there on my Ferasan, for his Theln carrier. My Caitian's is the Snakeir... or maybe I got the ship names backwards but you get the point lol Was gonna do a Vo'quv for that role but the Theln is much sexier and looks Kilrathi kinda.
@OP:
Ive yet to have an issue, I didnt have any stocked qmendations but I have 600 atm on my 3 mains and 560 on the rest of my alts..
When I get ESD Space I know I need to hit the Academy and maybe jump an instance or two but its easy.
When I get Bajor Space I know to use 'Crack in the Mirror' and harvest over Bajor VII
Beam down to the Academy. There will, eventually, be an Omega Particle somewhere in the vicinity of the Mark Valentine Memorial - I've found it everywhere from the Memorial steps to over by the fence next to the bay. If one doesn't show up soon enough to suit you, you can change instances; you're bound to find one eventually. This particular Omega Particle will fill the ESD Space requirement - none of the others around the Academy grounds will suffice.
ESD works for me more tiume than not. Ground anyway.
Have you tried going down to the Academy? They can often be found down there and count towards ESD gorund, I believe. Easiest way to find them is go to Lt Ferral/Personnel Officer and look there. If not, chang einstances as it often appears in that room.
Yes, all eight of my characters have it and it is the ship leveling on most right now. One character had 520 plus 400 for the mission and two days of the Particles and done. Four other alts had in the 400s and will get up to 1040 after the mission and a few days of Omega. Then I will be all set for four more Anniversaries. The other three were too young for last year's so one Omega for each and they were done. When they run Dust to Dust they will be set for ten years.:rolleyes:
One of my characters did get Bajor space as one of the areas. Before I heard of using 'Crack in the Mirror' to invoke it, I just dropped the Mission and picked it up again; its not like you can't use the particles you picked up anyway.
Prepare ahead and adapt as needed.

The Omega particle near the monument in Starfleet academy is a work around for this...
And I will be getting the ship I'm on 62% done already...

It isn't for me.

Thank you in advance.
My character Tsin'xing
Yes, have a couple of toons in it now for the trait.... for now my Fed Eng may keep it though.... it has become my favorite tank on that toon.
I have gotten the 40 every day and 400 for the mission. I am on track to get my ship with weeks left over.
