My fleet recently completed all its holdings, and I dont need much Dilithium anymore, so here are some suggestions for C-Store items I would consider buying, and the prices I might be willing to pay.
Pets
Fleets
Lockbox Keys
Zen Gifts
Various
R&D
Boosts
Ships
Duty Officers
Things Others Have Requested, But I Might Not Buy
Things Others Have Requested (But I need more info before I can add it)
Pets
- Non-Combat Pet: Canine - Various Species (300 Zen)

- Non-Combat Pet: Mini-Q - Grants Bank, Exchange, Etc. on Ground Maps (1,000 Zen)
- Combat Pet: Targ (400 Zen)
- Combat Pet: New Romulus Vivver Cat (400 Zen)
- Combat Pet: Armored Hatham (400 Zen)
- Pet Inventory (5,000 Zen)
- Pet Inventory Expansion (1,000 Zen)
Fleets
- Token: Fleet Upgrade: +1 Fleet Rank (500 Zen) (No Limit)
- Token: Fleet Upgrade: +10 Fleet Roster Limit (500 Zen) (Limit 50 per Fleet)
- Token: Fleet Upgrade: +1 Fleet Bank Tab (2,000 Zen) (Limit 12 per Fleet)
- Token: Fleet Upgrade: Fleet R&D Bank (5,000 Zen)

- Token: Fleet Upgrade: Unlock Cross-Faction Membership (10,000 Zen)
- Token: Fleet Upgrade: Unlock Cross-Faction Fleet Gear (10,000 Zen)
- These would be slotted like other Fleet projects, for all members to be able to contribute toward their fleets expansion.
Lockbox Keys
- Latinum Key - Guaranteed Grand Prize Ship When Opening a Lockbox (10,000 Zen)
- Gold Key - Choose your Non-Grand Prize-Ship Item When Opening a Lockbox (3,500 Zen)
- Lobi Key - No Item, Just Triple the Lobi When Opening a Lockbox (125 Zen)
- Lifetime Perk: Random Key every 7 days.
- Gold Perk: Random Key every 7 days after logging on once.
- Silver Perk: Random Key every 7 days after logging on 7 days.
Zen Gifts
- 250 Zen Transfer Token (300 Zen)
- 500 Zen Transfer Token (600 Zen)
- 1,000 Zen Transfer Token (1,200 Zen)
- These would allow someone to gift Zen to another player.
Various
- Token: 1 Specialization Point (250 Zen)
- Token: 10 Specialization Points (2,000 Zen)
- Token: Bridge Officer Trait Upgrade (100 Zen)
- Token: Kit Module Upgrade (1,000 Zen)
- Token: Item Unbind - Character to Account (10 Zen)
- Token: Item Unbind - Full Unbind (25 Zen)
- Full Unbind would not apply to mission rewards, fleet items, or reputation items.
R&D
- R&D Inventory Expansion (1,000 Zen)
- R&D Mod Change - One Mod (2,000 Zen)
- R&D Mod Change - Two Mods (2,500 Zen)
- R&D Mod Change - Three Mods (3,000 Zen)
- R&D Mod Change - Four Mods (4,000 Zen)
- Can be used to change the mods on any crafted item, regardless of upgraded status.
Boosts
- 1 Hour Skill Point Boost (1,000 Zen)
- 8 Hour Skill Point Boost (5,000 Zen)
- This is how the boosts used to be. The current model where you get 1k bonus skill points for every 5k earned is obscenely overpriced for higher level characters who can earn that in 10 minutes or faster. Go back to the time-limited boosts so we can gain additional skill points at a level-acceptable rate.
Ships
- Token: Lockbox Ship Rebox (2,500 Zen)
- Reboxed ships are permanently account bound.

- Passenger Expansion (200 Zen)
- Very Rare Duty Officer with Specific Traits (500 Zen)
Things Others Have Requested, But I Might Not Buy
- Character Sex Change (1,000 Zen)
- Character Species Change (1,000 Zen)
- Character Career Change (1,000 Zen)
- Permanent Access to Offline Chat (1,000 Zen)
- TNG Interior (1,000 Zen)
- TNG Theme Pack - Interior, Skants, Other Related Uniforms, Maybe a Ship (5,000 Zen)
- Playable Tholian, Any Faction (1,000 Zen?)
- Playable Voth, Any Faction (1,000 Zen?)
- C-Store Versions of KDF Fleet Ships (2,500 Zen Each?)
- Ground Device: Kirks KHAN! Scream Holo-Recording - Buffs Nearby Players (300 Zen)
Things Others Have Requested (But I need more info before I can add it)
- Fed T6 science escort <- Similar setup to the MVAE?
- Dahar master coat <- I thought the KDF gets this at Level 60. I could be wrong; maybe its just the title.
- Various Bug Fixes <- Thats a whole new issue.
- Mission Content <- Ive never played a game that did this. What would be acceptable pricing?

Support 90 degree arc limitation on BFaW! Save our ships from looking like flying disco balls of dumb!

Maybe I should have put the pets at the end.
STO Resources: <Ship Comparison - All Tiers + Small Craft + Hangar Pets> <Damage Resistance>
<R&D + Upgrade Costs> <Duty Officer Finder> <Suliban Doff Reqs> <Fleet Costs> <Rep Costs>
<Keybind Tour the Galaxy> <Fleet / Armada Management> <Currency Exchange> <Other STO Links>
Negatory IMO.
Praetor of the -RTS- Romulan Tal Shiar fleet!
Reboxed ships are permanently account bound.
I would pay GOOD MONEY for this.
The other day I opened a Dominion lockbox on a whim and landed the whopper Jem'hadar ship. I was so excited I fumbled the keys and ended up opening the box on the WRONG CHARACTER. Submitted a ticket to CS and they're basically like, "Hey, sorry 'bout your luck."
I would like to add the options to buy more Permanent Combat Pets, such as the New Romulus Vivver Cat and Armored Hatham.
In addition, Playable Tholian and Voth race (single unlock; multi-faction). Both would cost a bit more due to being a multi-faction unlock and having their own set of exclusive custom wear and level-scaling weapons. Both also have valid in-game reasons; there's some Tholian and Voth Doffs stating they're willing to work with the Federation, and the Tholians do have some trade with the Feds (the Tholian Robes and Scarf mention not needing to go directly to their Embassy to buy).
For example, you suggest a key that guarantees a lockbox ship at 10,000 Zen. If you buy (normal) keys for 10,000 Zen and sell them, you'll have enough EC to buy any lockbox ship on the exchange. Multiple ships if you pick cheaper models. :rolleyes:
As for Zen transfers, that's goldspammer bait and never going to happen.
I'm more of a realist than you. Give me ship skins, custom ship interiors, special BOs and more uniforms and I'd spend money in the C-Store.
A lot of these items are about managing your stuff at the toon, account, and fleet levels. They're quality of life issues, and I think we agree QoL is worth something.
Here you go. One Mirror universe ship.
Let the stupid suffer
They make that much 10x that amount on gamble fails. THey'd be losing money if they gave an auto-win at that price.
No. He never specified a ship. Mirror ships. Chance at once of those ships.
1. Dahar master coat
2. Combat pet Targ
3. Fix KDF tailor slots ( that we already paid zen for 2+ years ago )
4. a T6 BoP with true universal boff seating that dont suck.
5. Fleet versions of c-store ships and c-store versions of fleet ships. KDF is lopsided in that respect big time.
6. A Klingon combo pack with 1- 4 $50.00
Savik - Vulcan Fed Temporal Sci
Dahar Masters Fleet: Alphal'Fa - Alien KDF Engineer Qun'pau - Rom/KDF Engineer D'nesh - Orion KDF Scientist Ghen'khan - Liberated KDF Tac
Welcome to StarBug Online - to boldly Bug where no bug has been before!
STO player since November 2013
Only issue with this is the T6 ships, and what to do about their traits. At the very least, allow the trait to travel across characters on an account (you can keep the trait, but not the ship, with this token). All mastery data will be lost, so the new character would start from zero.
Or, they could just make masteries & traits account unlocks. :P
All my yes, with more yes precariously balanced on top. In fact don't bother with the ship traits, just give me the boosted base stats and the extra console slot so they are still a little inferior to other T5U ships.
Also a personal ground item that plays Kirk's KHAN! scream on activation, could also give a small buff to your entire away team or the 20 odd other players around you.
Too bad it's just wishful thinking that Cryptic takes note of this.

This is something I want... I won't spend nearly as much on single character unlocks as I will on account unlocks.
BwHAAHAH!!!!!!
Actually, I have so many special tribbles now that I do kinda need a box for them. Regular ones get converted to corpses.
My character Tsin'xing
Isn't that the Scimitar?
Not going to happen.
These need to happen.
I would like to add to your list, an option (a zen fee) to reclaim lobi/lock boxed ships that you've discharged.
