I'm sure this has been covered before, but i didn't see those posts.
i'm interested to know how I could acquire this ship?
i understand i'd have to spend money on the game and as an adult with a job, i do that fairly regularly.
they did grant me the T6 Intel Assault Cruiser (Archon Class) to which i'm awfully grateful.
however i think i'd like to know how much i have to spend or what time of year i'm supposed to spend this money to be noticed and considered eligable for this.

I've received a few of the shinies over the last 4 years (not the Marauder) but I'm far from a whale -- I only spend a little over $100/year on zen.
If you're lucky then over the holidays (Black Friday through New Years) it might become available as either a bonus for buying Zen, or as a thank-you for donating to a charity like Second Life.
"Obtaining
The Ferengi Nagus Marauder was sent to some players as part of a free package (filled with Enterprise-F crew themed items) who have provided 'outstanding support' for the game. It is currently unknown exactly what was required to qualify for this gift.
Additional Marauders were given away during a promotion in June 2017."

Neither anecdotal piece of evidence is conclusive obviously. In addition to that some people claimed to have spent nothing ever on the game though a dev did allegedly post in twitter that people sometimes claim they've spent nothing when they have in fact spent an absolute ton of money.
Personally I do believe that it was based at least in part on how much people spent. We're talking about a Ferengi gold plated ship here. If that isn't symbolism than I don't know what is.
I got the TOS holo boffs too, allegedly because I visited a Trek Convention. I didn't. So, one could assume was lying about that, and that, in fact, I did go. Or, we could apply Occam's Razor, and accept the simplest to be true, namely that I simply didn't go, and, likewise, that ppl who say they spent nothing on the game, just really didn't.
I spent a lot of money on this game, btw -- probably way too much, but I can't find a financial total somewhere in ARC -- and I did get the Gold-Plated Marauder. But considering I never went to said Convention, despite PWE's claim to the contrary, I take their supposed criteria with a big grain of salt. Far as I'm concerned, I was just lucky.
same thing here.
But i don't have the ship.
TOS boffs were given away as a separate PWE promo not too long ago. As a result: they are not convention exclusive.
Notable missions: Apex [AEI], Gemini [SSF], Trident [AEI], Evolution's Smile [SSF], Transcendence
Looking for something new to play? I've started building Foundry missions again in visual novel form!
Except, that, in my case, the email specifically thanked me for having been to a Trek Convention, and that this was the reason I got the holo TOS boffs.
That's because someone was too lazy to re-write the email before they picked a random set of people to send it to. I haven't been to a con in decades and I got that email too.
This is also why we see event blogs being re-used in NEWS with old text left in that makes no sense
It's true, Cryptic loves their copy/paste.
I have gotten some of the convention rewards in the past, never having been to the convention, I figured it was something to do with me having a Lifetime Sub. I have not gotten the Nagus myself however. I have in the past spent a few hundred dollars on Zen but nothing close to what alot of people spend. I also have played on Tribble server enough times to get 3 of the Tribble test server tribble awards also.
(Shrug) Just my thoughts on things that DONT guarentee getting the ship awarded.

Welcome to the forums.
The moderators prefer that you don't bump old threads, this one will soon be locked. It's just how they like things on this board, it's different from most forums where they prefer you post in an existing thread instead of making a new thread.
When this gets locked, don't take offense.. it's not intended that way. If you have an issue you wish to discuss, just start a new thread. It's pretty much the exact opposite of most other forums.
Welcome again.
