    So how long does it take chasing blue balls to get a vr doff?
    Personally, It's taken me 30 minutes, give or take ten, but I won't settle for anything less than Purple People. I need them to feed my one-eyed one-horned flyin' creature who only eats - well, you know. ;)

    It's annoying how many times you scan the particles and then they get destroyed... Damn boring, cheezzz!!!

    I seem to be collecting less CXP than the stated amount from doff assignments atm, is this a known problem?

    The doff system is pretty screwed up in general.

    Maybe someone here can answer this question...
    STO-MultiphasicScan-001.jpg
    The hint suggest that a Multiphasic Scan will make a difference in your results if the particles are expanding, but for the life of me I cannot see (or hear) any difference from one particle reaction to the next.

    Can anyone tell me what the difference is?

    If it's Expanding use Multiphasic or the particle collapses. And vice versa... there's really nothing more to it.

    How do I tell which particles are "Expanding?"

    The name of the particle object changes.

    It does? :/
    Do I click on the particle to find this new name, because I haven't seen any new names pop up? Sorry if I'm being totally dense, but this information has been genuinely alluding me.

    You may have turned off the text floater in the HUD options. It's the same floater used for friendly NPC names.

    I had a problem with this mission. I scanned the unfortunate ball, talked to npc and it gave an item I haven't found any use for (don't recall wich item). Such item I can't recicle, sell on exchange, put on fleet bank or discard, it's stuck on my bank taking precious noob space. What should I do?

    I tried 4 times (300 particle traces!) to get a purple Research Lab Scientist. Closest I got was 1 Development Lab Sci. :/

    Okay. I found the problem. The text floater were there, but on my screen, when they appear, they flicker like crazy and it make them really hard to read. I can just about make out the word Expanding, but it is there. It's not pleasant to look at, but it is there.

    I wonder why they flicker so much. The outline of my number two attack/function button also flickers at the same rate. At some point I may have to check and see if the cause is in my default settings. I don't change anything on my set up except the shaky camera thing. Well, at least I figured it out just in time for the next time, right? :)

    Thanks for your patience, Hawkman.
