    Hope Gamma marks are included, if so this will help me finish up on all my alts.

    Don't let them promote you. Don't let them transfer you. Don't let them do anything that takes you off the bridge of that ship, because while you're there... you can make a difference.

    You can get around 152 rare to191 very rare gamma marks from the advanced swarm queue if your team saves all the JH ships and transports.

    Sadly, 150% of a small amount of marks is still a small amount of marks.
    It was easy before, but now that we can do Mk15 gear, unless things got buffed, its going to be really easy.

    I'll do it a couple times just because its not something we do every day, but its not one that holds my interest.

    True, but I've found swarm is already slowing down on getting it to pop soon. It's a shame, because it's a fun queue.

    I hate to be this guy, but someone really needed to proofread this post before it went up. Its kind of a mess...

    As for the event, I'm kind of meh on it if there is no larger goal to work towards. (Like Mirror Invasion. That's the only thing that makes that que tolerable)

    Sooooo.... no weekend event tokens, no Gamma marks, and no significant marks as a reward?


    I'm good, then. thank you but no thank you.

    It's a Red Alert. I just ran it and got 105 Marks. Normal Red Alerts would give you 65. These figures are with the Daily Bonus.

    I assume Gamma would be added at the time it gets added to all the Red Alerts. I also assume that the next time we get a 14 day Event, Gamma Marks will be a choice.

    I said when we first started to get Weekend Event Tokens that the Elachi Red Alert would be a good one to add it to. Alas, not. They must be treating it as a limited time Red Alert and consider Red Alerts to be unworthy of consideration for Weekend Event Tokens.

    I remember when we first got the compact Breach Event on March 2, 2017, that I ran all my Characters through it and got them all about 2,000 Lukari Marks. As the Lukari Restoration Initiative Reputation was only released on January 26, 2017, I only had one Character engaged in leveling up that Reputation and was not yet completed in that task. All my Characters were now set to level up that Reputation after Sponsorship was unlocked and received.

    The main point here was that within 36 days of the release of a new Reputation, its Marks were added to a 'major' (14 day) Event. Minor Events, Monkeys, Birds, Epohh, Red Alerts, and such will wait until some 14 day Event 'breaks the ice'.

    Now if we can get a Shuttle Event after the Gamma Marks are unlocked, you can run 'Atmospheric Assault' and earn between 210 - 310 Gamma Marks per run.

    It's a relatively quick and mindless way to help top off marks and finish reps on a couple new delta and gamma recruits. It all helps.

    ^ Yes, shuttle events are super.

    Proofreading has never been high on their priority list.

    The first thing I thought was:

    "[We're not sure what] the Elachi have been doing with their captives, [but] we need every Captain at the ready to help stop their forces."

    would make a lot more sense.
