....at least make it so that all missions for Va1s/Lg1s give emblems. This would provide some incentive for episode replay and other things. Not to mention make it less grindy for getting ships ingame.

    Not a bad idea. Maybe more people would play together to get them at first and then find how fun it can be to team up for real missions other than STFs. I approve.

    Thank you, I hope the devs feel the same way. But it seems requests like this get ignored over trophy requests and such.

    I like the idea of Emblems for Mission replay at level cap.

    it gives you a reason to redo missions, much like the Heroic Instances in WoW.

    Mind bullets? :p

    WoW definitely has a clearer gear and instance progression: STO is all over the map regarding gear (Mk X [Cap]x3 > Aegis set shield or MK XII blue) and, well, repeatable instances are spread like butter over too much bread, if the butter wasn't working as intended and occasionally bugged out.

    well i think someone at cryptic really needs to sit down an work out a proggression path within sto. like you do the stfs then u do them on the next lvl of hardness up, when you have done all the stfs on that lvl you can either farm them still to gear up or head to the next lot which should work like fleet actions, 10 man smallest group 20 man biggest group with the instance setting the npcs to how many are in.

    set them in space and on the ground, throw us against peeps like the hirogen an undine in them, make them take time an tactics, stick puzzles in them an have them unlock so you cant just run around the edge an nuke a boss, have there hardness progress so after a certain one you cannot enter it under normal difficulty. give us a proper end game with u start at point A and end at point B and you cannot bypass them, you have to unlock them as a fleet and personal progresstion as a player.

    Endgame?

    No. We won't see more Endgame until Season 5 apparently (with the off chance of Into the Hive between now and then).

    There's more then enough missions that give Emblems a day to keep people occupied. If every mission gave Emblems then they'd soon become worthless and the market flush with the best gear. Nope, horrible idea.

    I can back emblems for VA episode replay. Sounds great to me. That would actually give me incentive to play through all the episodes again, though I do kind of want to wait until they're all remastered for that, which won't be until February next year.

    Let's hope that the devs hear us out in this matter.

    Well, not for every single mission you can replay, but maybe for the most popular / important / best / whatever. But before that they have to make the missions scale to the players level, getting emblems for playing a Lt. mission with a VA is a bad idea.

    this i can agree with.

    also, the ones that are simply fly here, scan this, etc need to be excluded from the list too.

    there needs to be "umpf" to a mission for this to be in place. not just handouts.

    I can back this idea for storyline missions but not the regular patrol missions. :)

    How about just the Scalable missions? Stranded in Space and the Featured Episodes for now, with more to come.

    Best gear? LOL!

    90% of the gear you can get with emblems is a complete "waste" of emblems. :rolleyes:

    I agree, there needs to be some enticement besides the dailies. while im all about risk versus reward so to speak, the low amount of emblems available daily is too low in my opinion.

    With that said then how do you feel about only giving emblems to missions replayed on elite?
