Even though you are revealed and targetable after firing from cloak you still retain a substantial defense buff as well as increased maneuverability. If those two factors were not present, I would agree some of you on this point. As it stands, your defense is high enough that the majority of attacks fired at you will miss,…

As a T'Varo Captain, I agree that this would be overkill to give the ambush buff to these ships while still cloaked. Specced right you can re-cloak quite quickly after dropping for an ambush anyways.

I see quite a few posts regarding Arc being a "RAM eater" but rarely is there any data provided to support these claims. I've seen browser tabs using more memory than Arc, so I'm curious about the RAM eating issues people are speaking of. Can anyone elaborate?

That rock looks dangerous...

Not sure what power levels people are running at, but I've recommended to my Fleet members that they run high shield power for this mission (if they aren't already). Engine power was the secondary choice. If things are still a bit tough, I recommend they go with EptS1 as their ensign ability. I didn't have much trouble…

Think of it like cooking a meal. You don't get to put the yolk back into the eggshell after you've scrambled them. Committing resources to a project is exactly that, a commitment. Those resources are lost after you transfer them, and I believe that's how it should be.

This is how it went down for me.

After testing a bit, I've found that the optimal use of the destabilized torp is attained by firing it while cloaked. Firing while out of cloak generally produced a torp that would fly at a speed somewhere between half my impulse bar and (as many of you seen...) possum speed. This was very frustrating as I tried boosting…

Here's my crew at the moment: Zdan - Tactical Heavy Weapons and Threat Control Specialist (Will probably be replaced by my Veril upgrade whenever I get a Very Rare female Reman Engineer) Two of Five - Liberated Special Ops Tactical Officer Xiomek - Captain of the Reman Resistance Warbird Vkruk Zelmek - Astrometrics Science…

R.R.W. = Reman Resistance Warbird. I welcome the chance to face Tal Shiar aligned playerss. Not particularly a fan of playing a Tal Shiar themed Romulan, but I wouldn't mind if players were given that option later. I think it could work well with the DOFF Espionage system. Replace the players RR contact with a Tal Shiar…

You know that you really want to play a Reman now, don't you?

"Legacy Pack Available on Romulan characters under the 'Bundles' tab in the C-Store. Can be claimed on any of your Romulan characters, current or future, regardless of rank."

Another issue I noticed was once I approached Hakeev the cutscenes with him talking to Sela started. Sela immediately faded away and became invisible though the sound and dialogue continued. Edit: During "Icon of an Empire" I noticed two peculiar things - 1 Sela's ship wouldn't activate it's main weapon from cloak if your…

It's important to remember that the moment the 3rd wave starts, the Subcommander directs you to focus all fire on the Command ship. I don't think you are really meant to fight the other ships, unless you are hunting for xp/sp I suppose. That's really what made the difference for me in this fight between the first and…

There are still a number of missions where you capture an NPC rather than kill them, so saying that we kill everything is somewhat of an exaggeration. We know the mechanics are there in space as well as on the ground, but I'm not sure if many players would enjoy having to run away from the enemy every time they got into a…

Yeah this happens quite often during heavy encounters, be they ground combat or space battles. Once the effects start to drop out, the only way to fix it is to relaunch the client. I've tried tweaking sounds in different places, but no luck so far. Sometimes it's not too bad, but often it sounds like listening to the fight…
-
Yeah, I meant to specify that this was with a Romulan character allied with the Federation. I've just been playing it so much that it became an assumption. The curious thing is that the backdrops for both Rebecca and Xelax are from the satellite/station and not from the ship. So if anyone should be contacting me in that…
-
Something I noticed is that the Romulan Fleet is wiped out in the first few moments of wave 3. Once it starts I fly up above the main fight. It's nothing but crescent waves of death early on, so best avoided. I then target the Command ship while my Fleet is exploding. It helps to be off to the side either left or right.…

As much as I am eager to form my Reman crew, I do also understand how powerful said crew might be. Nevertheless, I look forward to acquiring them and would prefer there be some rarity to them both in quantity as well as quality. The FE Science BOFF has been my first officer since that content was released, and I hope a…

"Updated the Romulan Tutorial and Turning Point to grant additional Reman costume options. These costumes are usable by Reman Captains and Reman Bridge Officers. Existing captains may not receive these costume unlocks unless they have not yet completed the Tutorial, as they are given as Mission Rewards." From the May 15th…

To add to this, I also noticed that when going to edit your UI layout, I actually saw two windows for the Singularity Meter. Was unable to take a screenshot of the double Meter, but did take one of the Meter persisting onto the Tailor UI: http://i.imgur.com/9SuzXhz.jpg I'm not sure if it was part of the cause, but I first…

Just received my 2nd Reman BOFF, and upon entering the initial tailor UI after having her join, she appears armless with her default outfit/uniform on. http://i.imgur.com/HMQuU8G.jpg Proceeding to modify her outfit restored her arms and removed the skirt in favor of Romulan Republic one pants. Cancelling back out of the…

I noticed that with the weapon update in the last patch Romulan ground weaps got visual upgrades as well as sound effects changes. I also observed that in combat with several enemies the sounds seem to trample each other and you can only hear one or two weapons firing while everything else fades or is muted. (Ambient noise…

I'm curious, have you made use of the called target function for your away team? I find that directing them to focus fire on a single target at a time makes ground encounters go much smoother.

While the IKS Kang didn't warp out on me, it definitely just sat there and watched me fight each group after scanning the anomalies. I didn't care much up until the fight with Hakeev. I'm playing on Elite and he started giving me more trouble than expected. I cloaked and flew back towards the Kang (shameful to admit this)…

Most if not all of the new plasma rifles/assault for Romulans (Flotilla) have this graphical bug. The model does not appear and while you can still attack there are no animations or effects. For the time being I have just been using pistols and the original plasma weapons

I played around with the appearance settings for Veril a bit and found a look I am comfortable with. I think the biggest issue for me is the skin coloration. I'm hoping that it's not intentional for her to only have the options for Romulan skin tones. If I could get her some lighter gray or ashen tones, I think it would…

I noticed this as well and bug reported it. It seems to be linked to the new Romulan plasma rifles. The old plasma rifles display their models and effects just fine, but as you said the new rifles are invisible and your hands just hang at your sides while your enemies take damage.
-
Since we're talking about plasma torps, has anyone ever seen an enemy Heavy plasma torp bounce off your ship and hit the ship that launched it? I've only seen this once, but I was just sitting there astonished when it happened, because I was expecting the torp to 1-shot kill me. Instead it bounced off of me and flew back…

I encountered the 'can't connect' issue myself and dug around on the forums a bit. Found this and posted about it:
