Cryptics 20th Anniversary Gifts

https://www.arcgames.com/en/games/star-trek-online/news/detail/11465713

Star Trek Online

The following items will be available to claim in Mudd’s Market section of the Zen Store, under the Bundles tab until July 16th:

New Title: Cryptonian
Platinum Discovery Era Sniper Rifle
Platinum Vanity Shield
Platinum Tardigrade Non-Combat Pet
Featured TFO Reward (3x)

On going to Mudds Market though (not 100% certain) I think it said these items are only available for 6 days NOT 16. Can Someone confirm if I read correctly.

Some in game have expressed not finding it. If you go to either the bundles, or all tabs you can find it.

    STO is only 10 years old.

    That doesn't mean that Cryptic has only existed as long as STO has been around. That would be like saying that EA never existed until X game launched.
    Cryptic is celebrating their 20th anniversary, and all three of their games have items to celebrate that.

    Are these per character or per account?

    Once per account it looks like. I've been trying to find the vanity shield on my other characters, but no dice.

    Resident TOS, G.I. Joe, Transformers and hair metal fangirl.

    And knowing is half the battle!

    You need to unlock them on all characters and the usual suspects/items are once per account.

    And the rifle is bugged and doesn't get account-unlocked or if it is, I dunno where.

    Yes, You need to go to the store with everyone and it looks like the rifle is either bugged or only once per account.
    Now a LTS and loving it.
    Just because you spend money on this game, it does not entitle you to be a jerk if things don't go your way.
    I have come to the conclusion that I have a memory like Etch-A-Sketch. I shake my head and forget everything. :D

    I got everything. Rifle was unlimited; when you put it to the upgrade sys it immediately jumps to mk15. But it does not come in a box; it comes unwrapped in the inventory.

    Yes, and only on the first character to claim the bundle. No other character gets the rifle.

    From the linked article:

    New Title: Cryptonian

    And it's character-bound-on-pickup, so you can't even "share" it between characters.

    I'll go with "oversight", but for a birthday gift, this is an embarrassing one. And that's not taking into account that you need to search a bit to even find this bundle that isn't even in the featured tab or the default tab of Mudd's market. And putting a birthday milestone gift into the most infamous conman's shop of the franchise is... how to say it...

    I hope they get fixing on the rifle and make it at least account bound and not character bound.

    so vanity shield, non-combat pet and title (nothing I would ever use) is for everyone... rifle and xp is once per account.

    rifle is a sniper rifle... does anyone like using a sniper rifle as their main/only weapon?

    No, but it's nice for an Engineer to set up your constructs then draw the prey into the fun zone with a sniper shot.

    I was a little disappointed in CO - it gave the title as "Platinum", not (as the press release stated) "Cryptonian". I was going to use that title for Hypernova, too, since he's kind of a Superman expy... :smile:

    Odd, I thought considering it said the Rifle and the TFO reward boxes were once per account I would presume that the rest of it would be account wide. Why add that detail if the entire thing is just per account?

    The Title, vanity shield and pet are all account wide. The rifle and choice box is once.

    So whoever claims the bundle first gets the box and the rifle. Everyone else who claims it gets the title, shield and pet.

    The Rifle is Mk XV Epic and once per Account and is Reengineerable. The 3 Featured TFO Rewards are the normal TFO Selection Pack, choose a Spec Point or a Lackluster Upgrade as the NORMAL Featured TFO Reward, you know like it says. The Packs are Account Bound, just like a NORMAL Featured TFO Reward.

    The Store Bundle description, in Mudd's Market, states all this pretty clearly.

    Did you check the Bundles tab in Mudd's Market? That's where it is.

    Been trying to redeem the package for a couple of hours now, keeps saying 'not available for purchase', I have an empty inventory and have not claimed it on any other character. I tried both the Featured tab claim version and the Mudds one, no dice... anyone else getting that or am I just cursed?

    Is there anything in your overflow bag?

    Even if you have Inventory room, you could have a Shuttle Pet in Overflow. If you claimed a Shuttle, the Pet goes there automatically.

    only snipers i use are the TR-116, and the original Fed type 3 rifle. technically not a sniper but it has a sniper's extra range. very useful in Gorn Valley

    I found the pack in the "Featured" tab in the store as it wasn't in Mudd's Market. Now I can't find the shield to reclaim on my alts. Am I missing something? I thought that the shield, title, and pet were supposed to be account-wide?

    I didn't get the account-unlock on the shield on alt account. Checked everywhere, including reclaim tab.

    Waiting to claim on main account until this bug is either corrected or they clarify if all the items are character-bound and not just the sniper rifle, cause that's how it is on my end.
