    Argh, I will miss all the goodies except todays going on vacation in Mexico for a wedding and I won't get to claim the stuff. Pray it is not something uber special like an assimilated T6 Sovereign or something for the ship giveaway later. I will be so choked if I missed out on that. :(

    Ehhhh... you could change the account password to something temporary (this step is possibly a bit overly paranoid, but whatever), log in from... somewhere... while on vacation, claim the stuff, and then change the password back when you get home. Assuming you have a smartphone and have linked its mail client to the mail account you use for STO, even Account Guard shouldn't stand in the way of such a scheme. If you choose to attempt it, that is.

    How does one do that I will have access to wifi but no laptop but I will have my smart phone. My email is linked to my smart phone as well.

    I actually failed to consider the amount of time it'd take to download the game when I posted - you should make sure you have a slightly faster way of starting it up, like the USB drive option. :p

    I opened the box when my doff roster is full so I couldnt receive the doff, but when I clear some space in the roster, the games says hat I already got the doff so I can't open the box... Anyone have a solution.
    I checked the overflow bag too, there isn't any doff.

    Same problem here on one of my secondary characters. Opened box when Roster was full, didn't get the Doff, but can't open the box again (after making space on the roster). Keeps saying "You may only have one of a unique item." :(

    So do I understand correctly if I slot this DOFF as one of the ground DOFFS it ALSO gives +5% ALL damage in space, but only against borg?

    And is this +5% to all damage or to all base damage?

    There is no overflow bag visible, i guess that means that nothing is in there?

    Make sure you have 1 free Duty Officer Slot in case the overflow bag for whatever reason does not appear. I had forgotten to free 1 up on an alt and only after noticed the Overflow with this Doff in it, but can't confirm if the overflow was missing before I freed the slot. Either way, free up a slot, then check the promotions c-store tab and claim or use the -reclaim option there.

    So yeah, the Borg arc is going to be worked on, like the Cardassian arc before it. A Borg Lock Box, aka Borg Lock Cube, is going to become available.

    Considering this giveaway, there'll be Borg Duty Officers available, either in the DOff packages, like the Delta currently available, or they'll be part of the Borg Lock Cube awards.

    Any possibility on a Phoenix Hero Ship for the Admiralty System?

    Edit: And/or the Vulcan lander?
  • k20vteck20vtec Member Posts: 535 Arc User
    Bit hard for phoenix to be a admiralty ship though... I mean the stat is gonna be 0.3 eng, 0.1 sci and 0 tac... It have to have some VERY useful special effect.

    Remove the box and down load it again. this is account wide if your still asking, this guy kicks butt.

    Now I have a question, if this guys can do none borg does that mean my other Ground Warfare Specialist like the one from Kobali Prime do the same against none Vaadwaur?
    Positive thoughts.

    This one only works against Borg. The only thing that's special about him is that he works everywhere, like Ang the Vicious (the Breen from the S6 Tribble testing) did against Tholians.

    Same for me on one of my Delta Recruit alts. Checked for the overflow bag and there is no button for the overflow bag. Seems the DOff simply vanished.

    Unfortunately the game thinks I still have the DOff and while I can get another box with the DOff inside, it won't let me open and reclaim it.

    Checked the roster and he's not there either so, no new DOff on this one alt. I made sure to check my roster before opening the box on any others so it doesn't happen again.

    Uhh.. propably silly - but you searched overflow bag in your inventory (and not somewhere in DOFF roster) - right ?
  • i8myhelli8myhell Member Posts: 30 Arc User
    This is a well thought-out gift for us all since if you cannot currently use it you can still obtain & use eventually & it allows all future characters to be able to do the same. Sure it is just a DOFF, but a DOFF with really nice stats & a nice attribute for ground damage. Thanks & nice going Cryptic on this one.

    Of course, on the inventory screen is where the overflow bag is at if there are items in it. The issue will get fixed, eventually.

    I hope. :p

    Still got the DOff on my other alts so it's not a complete loss. Freebies are always good and even if something (initially) goes wrong, I won't complain too much.

    Thanks for the free gift. That was cool. But, next time you put someone in a box, cut some holes in the box. The poor guy had to spend some time in sick bay as soon as we got him out of there.

    Same thing happened to me, but it was in the overflow bag. Try logging out and back in, this has worked in the past to fix some issues....

    Will there be anything in these giveaways for those of us who have absolutely no interest in DOff'ing and the Admirality System?

    No, there will not. My younger brother got an accidental leak when the C-Store offered him the Assimilated Assault Cruiser instead of the Phoenix. (He couldn't claim it, though.)

    I would definitely prefer the Assimilated Assault Cruiser!
