    Increased the maximum auction price of 500,000,000 Energy Credits to 750,000,000 Energy Credits.

    So glad they lowered it to 750mil.

    Had to edit, glad I got to level 10 admirality on two toons. That nerf to XP puts a crimp on advancement. Why put a limit on advancement on a system already gated by maintenances?

    Also glad they decided to lower the new upper limit to 750 mil rather than the 1 billion mark they initially pushed on Tribble.

    As for the limit, I'm not too happy about it but I guess the reason is to slow progression for people with a LOT of ships so they don't zoom through it much faster than people who have fewer ships. I mean I have 60+ on my Fed toons and I can run a lot of missions in a day with that number of ships, but even I don't own quite every Fed C-Store ship and I don't have lockbox ships or mirror universe ships etc added to my ranks. So I'd guess there are some people out there who have around the 100 ships mark and with that number maintenance would likely be a trivial matter. All supposition though.

    Edit: Also, didn't PDT end a few weeks back? That is a real question as I don't live in America so I don't know when your clocks change, but maintenance times have been off for a few weeks so I'm guessing it did end.    ​​

    "All Epohh Breeding Duty Officer Assignments on New Romulus and the Winter Event have had their durations reduced from 24 hours to 20 hours."

    Awesome. Thanks!

    Can Epohh tags be added as rewards for the events?
    Since just re-enabling the old FatF race times seems to be an issue...

    I would like to see the issue of unpacking the EV suits from Stormbound addressed. I have space in my inventory and it lets me claim it, but only to a box. Because I have a dozen or so items in my overflow, it will not allow me to unpack the EV suit, even if there are a handful of free spaces in my inventory. This was incredibly frustrating, as I had to quit the mission, go back to ESD, and just grabbed the vet reward suits instead. Also, I can't delete the box either!

    Hi trendy, there's no mention about the gameserver not found issue in the release notes whether it has been fixed or not.

    Resolved an issue that was preventing players at 10/10 Tour of Duty in the Klingon Campaign from progressing.

    That was fast. Thanks Bort!

    Thanks, I knew they went back later than ours but I wasn't sure exactly when it happened.     ​​

    Yes, I too would like to know if they're going to fix the Gameserver not found issue soon. It's annoying.
    Now a LTS and loving it.

    i'm curious if the exp limit was different before. lower? higher? none at all?

    i don't think i ever got more than 4 thousand before, though i usually just ran it once a day with some 20-30 ships.​​
    Now clowns, that's another story. They scare the cr​ap out of me.

    The Quantum phase torp is draining less shields than intended like the neutronic with power only 1 is barely affected by the shield drain other targets just get hit by regular torps.

    Great patch! Included some stuff I didn't see in the Tribble notes, so, happy to see those!

    The maximum amount of Campaign XP a player may earn within a 20 hour period (daily) has been adjusted to 10,000 per Campaign.

    This amount includes the Daily Campaign XP Bonus.
    All other Admiralty rewards remain unaffected by this change, and can continue to be earned after the 10,000 Campaign XP is reached.

    Not too thrilled with this, though I do understand why it's important to level the playing field for those without many Admiralty ships.

    However, I would think some sort of visual indicator that the cap has been hit for a particular Campaign would be important, to stop us wasting time trying to advance Campaigns that aren't going anywhere.

    This is far too low for a system that is already gated by maintenance periods. surely you would have been better to tweak the maintenance times if you wanted to slow progression.

    Glad I've completed both Admiralty campaigns. As for leveling the field - players that buying ships bc of this system or buying at all (means money for Cryptic) should be rewarded, don't you think?

    But... They said increase to 1 B on tribble! this ain't fair. i hoped they would go with that. that way.. EVERYTHING would be on exchange if it existed. well all Ships would be.. ok.. aside from the bulwark.

    Why handicap those of us that have invested the time and resources into building our ship collections up, just to level the playing field against those that only have a handful of ships? What's next limiting our offensive capability because a pug can't match what what we do? Or are we going to be limited on how many duty officer missions we can run a 24hr period?​​
    Oh, it's not broken? We can soon fix that!

    Have to agree. There's no need to timegate the Admiralty system any further. It's accomplished by the Maintenance periods already. And it is a bit unfair to people who have built themselves a collection of ships. (I'm not one of these people, before anyone accusses me of bias :* ).

    Boost, nerf, boost, nerf... From one level increase per day back to one per week. I really wish you could find a balanced solution instead of constantly swinging between the two extremes.

    Especially without any testing done on Tribble. This strikes me as a very curious and sudden change.​​

    IMO, this is another example of MMO Socialism...

    Once again, the have-nots are catered to as the people who are active with the game, playing and paying get their leashes yanked on by the pet handlers at Cryptic Studios. The grinders get punished for... grinding too much.

    Still no fix for player challenges, this is getting really annoying now >_> and why the hell was that nerf put on Admiralty EXP. i don't thin ANYONE complained about that or wanted a nerf on the already long tedious and un-interesting/un-engageing system.

    I don't see the issue with the limit on campaign exp. For most players serious about admiralty we are done with the campaigns already and you can only complete them once so....

    I guess maybe if new campaigns are added, but still, you can only complete them once. And that will still only be 3 weeks.

    Adjusted the Winter recipe ingredient placements to be accessible again.

    Added Gumdrop and Sugar Plum Epohh entries to the Epohh Trade-in Store, found on the GPL Conversion Unit in Q's Winter Wonderland.

    I was hoping for that fix with the ingredients. My Delta recruit needs that Winter Chef accolade
    And the marks :smile:
    Players can once again delete mail sent by the Exchange.

    Cleanup time! XD


    Not entirely sure what to think of the price cap increase for the exchange, though. :/

    Still, a healty list of fixes in there. Much appreciated. :smile:
