    With the large number of items, Dilithium only cost, Character Bound (Tokens Account Bound) items it can work as a decent sink. Looks like the Dilithium Exchange was down close to 20 already earlier today.

    There is no market manipulation possible here either. Everyone has the same opportunity to get those prizes. They can't be hoarded or sold.

    A few mix-ups with the Elachi Kit Module and Type 8 Shuttle but whatever. The former is a reward from 'What's Left Behind' and the Shuttle is available for EC from the Ship Vendor.

    will getting T5 JHAS unlock these for the carrier?

    This is indeed most excellent! I was confused and thought the prize tokens were character bound, but no! They are account bound, it's only when you redeem them that the item is character-bound.

      This is a most agreeable effort indeed, though, shotgun, versus RMC, decisions, decisions! Assuming I'll have enough luck to get a token for either. Guess it's time for more contraband farming.

      It's a good change that should let a lot of people pick up things they missed. I highly recommend the shotgun if you didn't get that before as it's one of the best ground weapons in the game.

      RMC, shotgun and spike are on my wanted list for several characters.
      The ships are kind of "meh" as far as i am concerned, but then again i have all the T6 in my possession already and the T5 Risa party boat i intentionally missed out on.
      This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Questerius 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.

      Yeah, that's great. Though I have almost everything from there its good for new players.

      And the dilex has shed all the black friday bloat already, too. Will have to see if it actually goes down from the 400 when this goes live.

      New players can also get a chance to finish out the flagship and CBC sets, so that's big.

      Agreed. It was a great move to make use of retired resources. Definitely sacrificing a bunch of dil to RNG gods for the jhas for pet unlocks and corvette just cause I enjoy that design so much.

      Really wonder what the drop rates will be like considering these are so light in content otherwise.

      Thanks for confirmation. I haven't had a chance to test it out myself yet but no one's said anything to the contrary. Look forward to buying its fleet variant too then.

      I believe she is talking about the Elite JHAS Carrier 'Pets'.

      It stings a little to know I will never again be able to inspire Jealousy in Rattler by performing the air guitar emote, but I realy am very glad to see all the happy smiling faces on the newer players.

      I don't really mind that this event dose nothing directly for me. I think it will be good for new player retention, which benefits us long time players more then some realize.

      God I should hate to only have only oldies to play with, they are too jaded to be impressed by my giant gravity wells.
    • alcyoneserenealcyoneserene Member Posts: 2,414 Arc User
      off-topic, but bonzodog01 was referring to my now erased signature about the cloak issue on the first T6 kdf sci ship. It has a fleet variant as well, which I was hesitant to get to not risk having the bug persist unless perhaps the ship had to be refreshed (as is the case with outdated skins), as fleet ships cannot be dismissed without deletion.

      on-topic: Awesome event! Decided on the risian ship pair, since a T5 bug would lack the console for a set bonus, and be redundant if unlocked on same toon with another T6 jhss and jhdc.

      Does the Risian luxury still got the glitch where the wings are still dropping?

      Same. I got the RMC from my first free box, which is the only thing I really needed. Now just trying to get a bulwark admiralty card just for laughs. Probably won't get it but whatever.

      Hopefully this gets rerun regularly so new players can keep up. It has been a most impressive dil sink as well.

      I'm gonna predict that this will be a regular occurrence going forward during the first week of each holiday event

      Hi Smokebailey, yes I think it does. When a friend helped showcase it, I noticed the solar sails hanging a bit underneath in system space. It wasn't that bad, but definitely didn't look neat like this picture. Really hoping on T6 Risian ships, and if so, maybe then they'll do some touch ups if the new models allow using the T5 skins.

      I really cant see why players who have everything say there is nothing for them, those upgrade tech are worth their weight in dilithium, there's always something you can upgrade surely.

      When I think about everything we've been through together,

      maybe it's not the destination that matters, maybe it's the journey,

       and if that journey takes a little longer,

      so we can do something we all believe in,

       I can't think of any place I'd rather be or any people I'd rather be with.
