Gamma Recruit Level 10 R&D not rewarding 2 boxes?

It says that it's supposed to reward 2 boxes that can each be used to advance an R&D school to level 10, but I only got one.

As an aside, why wasn't kits and modules an option for the upgrade?

    I didn't get a second one either. Either a mis-print or they were alluding to a future reward?

    If you're KDF, you're hosed on the level 5 reward, too - the 5 Research DOFFs you get are all FED, and thus unusable. :( Mine were sold into slavery on the Exchange. ;) Which is a win for them, as I could have executed them for incompetence!

    I can't say I'm surprised...

    I got doffs that were actually very good... for greens. I actually got an AENAR research lab dude!

    One box here too.

    I also noticed that when you claim the box on your alts for re-engineering a Mark XV item.. the box is supposed to grant you a 'large amount of salvage.' It actually does absolutely nothing at all.

    I should probably bug report it.. I just honestly don't care anymore. :neutral:
    Insert witty signature line here.

    IIRC, it said salvage bonus pool. I'd presume that means you have to earn some to get the bonus just like the XP bonus pools.

    Did the same here. Really sad, because I desperately needed those Doff types.

    Really? Wow.. ok. That's a silly reward, but at least it makes sense. Thanks for the info.

    You're Fed side? Because KDF-side, they are nice Green DOFFs, but you can't assign them to any DOFF mission or R&D project, nor can you upgrind or downgrind them. Totally useless. I sold mine in one day for 100k EC a pop, though!

    After I sold my slackers, I bought some KDF ones on the Exchange. Those are more expensive than the FED ones, though, so I ended up with fewer.

    No, KDF allied, but I mailed them to myself.
