    Why can't the exothermic and endothermic research modules be slotted on the same kit ? Couldn't work out the shared cooldown or was there another reason ?

    More than likely, one is a clone of the other with a slight text change and the color of the effect. There for, the system would think you are trying to slot the same module twice.

    That doesn't make sense since the radiation module is very similar but had radiation effect damage, the endo has cold damage, and the exo fire damage. Yet the radiation module can be slotted with either of the other two.

    They are not links. they just look like it.

    They change the Big Picture and Description.

    Choose any other option but the first one and you will see :smile:

    actually.... try combining the new sci module with a stasis field module(it even says in the blog that it's an upgraded stasis field). :p So now your sci has 3 DoT options, you can even use heat, radiation, and cold!

    The Endothermic Induction Field Kit Module really is tied directly to its original version, unlike many alternate and new Kit Modules. While that does mean that you can't equip both versions, it also means that you can use the same doffs for either. For Exothermic/Endothermic Induction Field, that works out to a solid amount of added capabilities, including lobbing Molten Projectiles and adding an additional Root chance. If Endothermic Induction Field were a standalone Kit Module, that wouldn't be an option.

    The other thing to consider is how the two would potentially interact. Applying an ice field to a fire field should put out the flames, and applying a flame field to an ice field should thaw the ice, but as players of course we'd just want to equip both to we can do more damage. So they'd either end up with players complaining that they could overlap (because it's illogical and/or imbalanced) or players complaining that they couldn't (because there's little point to equipping both if you keep cancelling out your own powers).

    In this particular instance, I'm fine with either/or; it makes sense in its own way, and opens up some options we wouldn't otherwise have.

    Nice, but i am wating for the ship
    Patience, my young Padawan. Is there no new tac module this year?
    There is, there are more rewards coming as well as le' ship.

    Great! Can't wait to hear more about "le ship". Extraordinaire.

    A ship made in France, special trait " Turn tail and run as soon as opposition is detected"

    Sorry couldn't resist.​​

    No, the Le Ship trait lowers the threat rating and increases the accuracy and damage of the ship since everyone focuses on past losses (WWII and Vietnam. The French warned the U.S. about going into Vietnam, but the U.S. was too WWII fixated when it came to the French and went in anyway. We know how well that turned out.) and forgets about the amazing weapon systems to come out of France over the past 40 years like the Mirage 2000, Mirage IV, Mirage F1, Super Etendard, Rafale fighters, the FAMAS (one of the first truly successful bullpup assault rifles), the AMX series of tanks (which boast one the lowest tank profiles in the world).

    France's failure in WWII was due to a bunch of old WWI marshals who didn't understand the value of armor (their tank brigade and division commanders did, but they were ignored). If France had reinforced the Belgian border with their armor (which BTW was far superior to anything the Germans had at the time), the invasion of France would have been routed with the Wehrmacht running home to momma...

    Does anyone know if we have to run the race 25 times for every toon on the account, or just 25 on the main character/toon and then the others get a reduction in the number of times they have to race to get this ship and if so how many times?

    One toon must run it 25 times. The others get the ship for "free" once it's unlocked on that toon.​​

    No, they're just both listed as part of the set, you need either to complete the 4-piece bonus.

    @pwlaughingtrendy Sorry if this is posted somewhere else but I searched and cannot find it. The new Engineering Boff power - Endothermic Inhibitor Beam are we not able to craft them like all the other special boff powers we have acquired from the mission awards like for example Destabilizing Resonance Beam? Do I need to unlock all three levels to be able to craft them? I am just wondering if this is the only time we can acquire them? Also I am not asking if it will unlock to account or be able to sell them just unlock to the character that acquired them. Thank you for your time.

    The interesting thing is, not only do the other toons get the ship the "main" one unlocked, if they also do the 25 runs they end up getting a second ship. It's sort of too bad those toons can't "trade in" that second breen dread for one of the others listed from past events. :p

    STO WINTER & SUMMER Events

    Repelling & ZIP lining like in the ARTIC on EVEREST for Winter Event be NICE to ADD an activity where the 2nd ICE running event is--the ONE where you compete against other players. Perhaps add another SNOW GLOBE up their, with a NEW map of steap Andorian Mountain's, then you choose a race to repel, zipline, and run down a slippy PEAK. That would MIX it UP nicely... Still missing my PET hotel bank with so many Free slots & others purchasable where you see your pet's cared for at ESD on 83 Red upper level.

    On RISA we should also have an EQUESTRIAN Horse Jumping Contest in the Summer for a COOL event like MOUNTS in Neverwinter on another site on RISA.

    --
    NEVERWINTER WINTER & SUMMER Events

    NEVERWINTER should also have the MOUNT downhill race but also a WINTER LUGE competition using sled's with warm tight leather like outfits for the winter period like Olympic LUGE or the Summer Wetsuits in STO--with an option to disable winter coat visual in Winter LUGE outfit when competing. Since the mechanics are different in Neverwinter.

    Heck it be nice to see a basic set of leather based swimwear with cloth lining for Neverwinter's summer event too.

    Be also NICE in Neverwinter to have a third versions of OUTFITS one that displays all ARMOR (Bound) or another (Unbound) that displays just SHIRT & PANTS with Feet & Arm armor when just riding--looks like equestrian wear then. I have to take all my armour off just to display a COOL pant & shirt which looks like RIDING (HORSE) outfit.

    STRATHKIN things that would be COOL.

    I thought I had put the Dred from the 2015 in all my toons inventories. But it looks like I missed one. Tried going into (Rep, Events, Store) like in the past. I don't see it. I don't recall how it told me to do it, and I am not finding the instructions anywhere/
