    I just had 2 haggle missions @ Orias III. Apparently it, and a spot midway between DS9 and the fleet dilithium holding are sweet spots for doffing.

    I haven't found any spots that will consistently give the correct assignments. Have you tested that spot again to see if it always works or if it was just random?

    Tested it myself at the Reimers system and that definitely works - and it also showed something else: the in-game sector map doesn't align with the DOff sector map. The Reimers system appears to be on the border between what was the Beta Ursae Block and the Orrelius Block. Heading up from Reimers gives assignments like "Formulate Security Treaty with the Deferi" and "Report Political Conditions on Defera," while down from Reimers gives "Escort Bajoran Ambassador to Bajor" and "Negotiate Economic Compact with the Bajorans." By the sector map shown in game, those assignments from the old Orrelius Block shouldn't be available down in what is now shown as the Bajor Sector.

    So now the next challenge is to find where all these screwed up sector borders are so that we can get DOff assignments to show up reliably.

    All of the haggling missions are gone and the doff missions in the rolor nebula don't even come up.

    I have had no Haggle missions whatsoever since Season 10--not even on DS9 in-system, ground, or Ferengi trader, which theoretically should have been unaffected by the Sector Space change.

    Haggle missions aren't gone, I get them consistently all across Alpha.
    They were however removed from DS9 (ground, space and trader) - all social zones (DS9s, Earth Space Dock, Vulcan, Andor, Qo'nos) were affected by the change and they only get the generic missions, no Haggle or Asylum anymore.

    haggle missions all across alpha? are you kidding?

    hour after hour after hour of flying around every sector in every quadrant. along borders, not along borders, would you could you with a car, would you could you in a boat ...

    doesnt matter where, when, how, or why i look. not a single haggle mission has been found since s10. not one

    im not a complainer but this is ridiculous. gonna walk away from the game soon if this continues

    Well, what do you want me to say?
    I'm sorry for you, doff missions are generally broken, assignments flicker, come and go, and it's hard to pinpoint a place where they appear, and I'm not happy with what happen after the revamp either, but once you go through this problem, finding Haggles shouldn't be problem, other that they became somewhat rare, because they aren't available in DS9 anymore. I manage to pick up several every day, and I sell all I find because prices of these commodities became really crazy.

    The names of missions are:

    Haggle for Bateret Incense.
    Haggle for Ferasan Nepeta Leaves.
    Haggle for Jevonite.
    Haggle for Shapeshifting Lockets.
    Haggle for Tulaberris.
    Haggle for Unrefined Keteracel.
    I can confirm this. The mission locations were previously in Beta Ursae Block, Alpha Trianguli Block, Zeta Andromedae Block, Deep Space Nine (ground), Deep Space Nine (trader), and Deep Space Nine (space).

    I debated starting a new thread, but really this is more appropriate.

    Bort, I think the Romulan/Reman recruiting missions may have gone AWOL again. I know that they were fixed to pop a bit more frequently early in the year, and at that time my Fed-Rom did manage to find the Tactical version twice in a week. Since then, I haven't seen it at all. My two KDF-Rom characters haven't seen any Romulan recruiting missions in over a year, and I check them both at every login. OK, one of them is a Delta, so he hasn't been here a year, but I've yet to see this mission with him at all.

    I'm still getting missions (including haggles) @ Orias III and midway between DS9 and the fleet dilithium holding. (I have to fly right up to the planet, though.) It's good enough for marauding, but I'm having a hard time getting rid of prisoners. Best I can do right now is hit clusters, looking for Forced Labor missions. I have no idea where the zone ones are now.

    i didnt mean to target your response personally

    ive spent probably a total of ten to twelve hours dedicated solely to finding haggle missions. ive been all over the map, tried everything mentioned in these forums, and still to date not even a single solitary haggle mission. not. one.

    of course thats unacceptable. ive been trying to be patient since i know they have a lot to do but this is pretty silly at this point. its a part of the game completely unplayable for me right now

    tried that too for the past two days since i saw the reference and so far no haggles. im hoping they will cycle in, but so far still a big fat zero

    The doffing zones are really weird right now. If you fly between Hromi Cluster and Arucanis Arm, you should pass through 3 zones total, but there is a 4th zone that's hidden there as well that you actually have to be flying at low speed then come to complete stop very quickly right when the missions appear and you can access them.

    Maybe something similar is happening to the "Haggle" missions and they're not appearing in the wider doffing zones, but rather in some of these strange micro-zones.

    But I have not personally seen any "Haggle" missions since S10 and I've flown all over Alpha sector and they are also absent from all the DS9 locations as well (space, ground, trader).

    yeah there's a micro-zone between the Cardassia sector and... whatever is west of it. I've found colonial chains there several times.

    exactly

    it also appears based on responses that some ppl are getting the haggles included, and some are not like you and me

    its just frustrating bc i was and am in the middle of trying to complete those, most of them are very late in the chain, and ive got all these half used up inventory just taking up space

    Wouldn't it be simpler if the Quadrants had Assignment locations in the same way that the Dyson Allied Adventure Zone has? And notifications that DOFF assignments are available?

    Right now we can't tell where one Assignment area ends and another one begins because it's not oriented to specific locations. For us, it's a vague "somewhere over that way, maybe" kind of thing. The only reliable locations where we can expect to see certain assignments are near the exploration clusters.

    But I know that there are certain areas on the Dyson Adventure map where I can find DOFF assignments and I know where they are in relation to specific landmarks. And there's a helpful message that pops up to tell me they're available.

    I don't mean to say that every assignment should be tied to specific locations. After all, we should be able to grab a routine assignment along the way as we head for our next mission.

    But for those special assignments that you can't find everywhere, it would help if we knew to fly near a certain system to see if they're available. There are a few that I haven't seen in awhile, even before the sector space revamp. Investigate Temporal Anomaly comes to mind. I have newer characters who have never seen that mission pop up anywhere and have never completed it.

    The Asylum to Earth is not showing up at all. Nor is the assignment appearing at Sol system space. It is not appearing inside of Earth Space Dock.

    Asylum to Andor is not appearing at all. It is not appearing in Andoria system space or on the surface.

    I've seen Asylum to Vulcan once in the Operations department heads like most of them, once. The asignment is not appearing when you go to Vulcan system space or on the surface.

    RARE

    Asylum on Andor - Andoria, Sirius | No
    Asylum on Benzar - Beta Ursae | Yes
    Asylum on Betazed - Sirius | Yes.
    Asylum on Bolarus IX - Iota Pavonis | Yes
    Asylum on Caitian Homeworld - Alpha Centauri | Yes
    Asylum on Earth - Earth Space Dock, Sirius, Sol | No
    Asylum on Rigel V - Sirius | Yes, once.
    Asylum on Saurian Homeworld - Alpha Centauri | Yes.
    Asylum on Tellar Prime - Sirius | Yes, once.
    Asylum on Trill - Beta Ursae | Yes, once.
    Asylum on Vulcan - Sirius, Vulcan | Yes, once.


    VERY RARE

    Asylum on Bajor - Alpha Trianguli, Bajor, Beta Ursae, Zeta Andromedae | Yes, once.
    Asylum on Cardassia - Alpha Trianguli, Beta Ursae, Zeta Andromedae | No.
    Asylum on Karemma - Alpha Trianguli, Beta Ursae, Zeta Andromedae | Yes, once.
    Asylum in Paradan Space - Alpha Trianguli, Beta Ursae, Zeta Andromedae | No.

    All the ones I've seen are only appearing in the Operations department head.

    What has been your guys experience with the Asylum assignments.

    i am afraid i dont have any specific data but i have had a fairly regular supply of asylum missions come up as i was flying around. so many, in fact, that i was trying to find more refugees with no success btw. not very helpful without data but at least i can say ive seen them numerous times

    sounds like maybe each player has sort of a default list and different assignments that pop up when you hit a 'hot zone'

    thus for someone like me i have not had any trouble with asylum missions coming up, but absolute total zeros on haggle missions

    Well, it's not supposed to work the way it currently does. In theory, every part of the Cardassia Sector, Bajor sector, Trill, and Draylon should share a single mission list. But they don't. And there shouldn't be a mini-sector sandwiched between the borders of Arawath sector and Cardassia sector, but there is.

    Taco posted maps of where the borders should be.
    Alpha: https://www.flickr.com/photos/nduguid/17042369619/
    Beta: https://www.flickr.com/photos/nduguid/17226836942/
    Delta: https://www.flickr.com/photos/nduguid/17041004100/

    But yeah, not sure what's wrong but, it's nto working the way it should. :/

    I have yet to see any Military projects while flying about in sector space on my KDFs. It used to be I'd see some useful assignments (in particular the prisoner labor assignments, but there were others too) flying through Eta Eridani, Pi Canis, & Regulus. Now the only way I see Military projects is to go through the tactical security station.

    Or is this just me?

    EDIT: I have seen Military projects 'flicker' into my display though. Mostly likely those mini-sectors discussed.

    Try the south east corner of Rator. I found some there in a tiny area.... no clue why it's a small area they're in and just a small area.

    Oh and I was looking again last night and there are actually TWO mini sectors sandwiched between Arawath and Cardassia blocks.

    Thanks for the suggestion, but as long as I am still finding the missions through the station heads I am not going to go out of my admittedly haphazard flight paths. I only brought this up because it seems like the entire class of Military assigments no longer show up in most of sector space.

    Has anyone come up with the exact x-y coordinates of where what shows up? This way you can simply use the console to go to the EXACT trigger points...

    (but yeah, its absurd that we need to do that to get access to many missions)
