Mirror Outfits

elothox · January 2016

So, regarding the mirror outfits, the post only says:

Captains can purchase Mirror Universe Uniforms, including variants of the Odyssey, Bortasqu’, and Romulan uniforms as worn by their Mirror counterparts (available only to characters of the appropriate faction). Additionally, a special set of Jupiter Terran Empire Uniforms adds more variants, including Admiral Leeta’s Mirror Uniform pieces.

It does not say if they're lobi, zen, or anything else. Is there one whole set? Are they per character? Are there three sets (and an additional Jupiter)? This is a set I'm looking forward to, but it was mentioned in a lock box post when the contents aren't even in the lock box... soo....

Clarification?

Following the pattern of other lockboxes. It'll be in the lobi store for 200 lobi.

While I hope for anything besides the lobi store, I'm not optimistic.

tarran61 · January 2016

I was hoping for the c-store, also hoping for a zen sale as well, Im ready to spend some real $$ but its on a time limit.

kiralyn · January 2016

With seemingly four sets (Fed, KDF, Rom, Jupiter), I'd think they wouldn't all be in the lobi store. But I guess we'll see.

I could see the Jupiter "Leeta" Costume in the Lobi store as it has more pieces than the others, The 3 faction ones, I hope will be C-store or simple lockbox drops.

Chances are, it's a MU Costume Box to be purchased in the Lobi Store. If FED opens it, it's the FED MU uniforms. If KDF opens it, it's the KDF MU uniform. If ROM opens it, it's the ROM MU uniform. Too bad there's not a MU Reman uniform option.

A shame. I would buy some of the newer costumes outright if in the C-Store. Using the same Zen to instead buy keys to unlock chance boxes, with maybe enough Lobi inside to spend in the Lobi store, just isn't at all appealing to me.

It matters not because i plan to buy them straight away.

Me too. I've bought almost all the zen store costumes, but I don't really want to spend enough zen on lottery boxes to get enough lobi for one costume for one character. Besides the expense, especially for someone with lots of alts, it's a really long winded way to get it if you're not interested in what's in the boxes. The whole lottery box/lobi system is really anti-consumer, but that's a different rant.

Well, originally, the lobi system was a wonderful addition to the typical lottery box system.... they were a bonus item, a bit of extra insurance against bad luck - if you opened a bunch of boxes and didn't get anything cool, you'd still have gotten these guaranteed lobi crystals that would let you outright buy a "cool thing".

Of course, this breaks down when you switch the goal from "get cool thing from lockbox" to "get that lobi thing... TRIBBLE, I have to open lockboxes".

The question was raised over in the main lock box thread and I don't believe it was answered. Therefore I suspect these all to be lobi store items. It's seems like a wasted effort (Jupiter in lobi, rest in C-store seems most marketable) but depending on Cryptic's line of thinking it's something they could easily decide on.

+ 1 for c store versions, I don't want to buy 25 keys per too for the outfits

Closer to 50, assuming 4 lobi per box. Of course, even for 25 keys, it'd be cheaper (EC-wise) to buy off the exchange.... the Herald Thrall outfit was around 35-40mil, last I checked. (This is also assuming all lobi outfits would be the same 200 crystal price)

pappy02u · January 2016

Ugh... they are in the lobi store. This is disappointing, but not surprising

davefenestrator · January 2016

Are they captain-only, or can I outfit my mirror boffs to match my mirror holo-Leeta?

drazzii · January 2016

Very disappointed that the Odyssey and faction based costumes are Lobi purchasable only. I can understand the Jupiter (Leeta specific) costumes, but the faction-based costume? Poor choice, in my opinion.

I was going to pay money for Zen to buy those outfits, but I'm not going to spend an even higher exorbitant price to get keys to open 50 boxes... Price difference: 550 zen versus between 3000-4000 zen to open enough boxes.

EDIT: That's per character, for what seems like a shirt (or two) and little else.

It's the little else that we're after.

I'm hesitant to get these because they're not labeled clearly. Look at this picture:

I'm assuming that the two leftmost uniforms are the Odyssey uniforms, but in the lobi preview "Mirror Odyssey" shows something different. I'd like some clarification on what I actually get for whichever pack I might buy before I use the lobi.

misterferengi · January 2016

Really need different colours for the shorts. Blue, Gold and Black would be good 2nd/3rd/4th choice options.

I've heard the average is 5 lobi.

imperialmirror · January 2016

I would hold of on buying them, They're missing ranks bars, Arm knife on Males and Leetas shorts can only be red.

started another thread just caused i noticed the rank bar missing didnt see the others you mention

thestargaze · January 2016

Such a dissapoingment that those uniforms are not in the zen store. I would have bout them at the store immediately. .. But since they are lobi based and no doubtebly will be 30 mil + ...I will probably not get the outfit despite how much I want to .. If you have 3+ Alts you are basically screwed. I'm not that advanced in my gaming that I make several millions. its to costly to buy lots of keys .. I tried a few times with 10 pack keys but it's never enough...

kodachikuno · January 2016

And here I was ready to actually buy zen with cash for the first time in 2yrs

First they throw out garbage for KDF and RR then they make em all Lobi.... fuuuuuuuuuuu
