Kit module definitely sounds interesting. You can never have too many drones, crawler mines, helper bots, et cetera. I LOVE summoning an entire army of pets, drones, bots, mines, and the like. As if my away team weren't powerful enough already. :D
-
I can confirm that at least the pistol works as intended; the tertiary ability allows you to cycle through the six energy types (phaser by default, then disruptor, plasma, tetryon, antiproton, and polaron...IIRC, before going back to phaser). Please be aware that any ground device that effects melee damage, e.g.…

I understand that is likely just a typo, but it's one that can definitely cause a lot of angry customers who were hoping to wait a bit to buy the bundle, only to find out that it does NOT stay half price until the 17th.

Let us wear clubwear we just grinded 250,000 GPL for, wherever we want. Kinda sucks being restricted to ESD for the most part.
-
Fed Gorn. 'Nuff said.
-
Are you, per chance, in a level 50 area (such as the Solanae Dyson Sphere)?
-
This has been in the game since the very beginning; this is due to the greater focus on the story itself rather than character animations. I personally find it kinda funny. Maybe those Romulans (such as D'Tan and Subcommander Kaol) are telepathic? Actually, that IS a thing, IIRC.
-
Remans don't have the telekinetic shove, but they do have something that might just be even better: the Mind Drain ability. It fires a purple beam that ignores shields and does decent kinetic damage. It has a fairly short range (I think like 15 meters or so), but it's a good supplemental ability to have, and it does scale…
-
You have to use the humanoid face shape I think. Kinda sucks for those of us who enjoy making tiny aliens with big, wide heads (Tuterian Sphere Builder shape).
-
The truth is, the devs are constantly busy chasing after this game's bugs (due to just how old and complicated the spaghetti code is, it's like trying to untangle a pile of knots) when they're not pushing out new content in the form of events, lockbox ships, promotions, and the occasional new episode, TFO or patrol (this…
-
This is a known issue, but no ETA has been given as to when it will be fixed. At least it isn't game-breaking--the ship has plenty of other ways to do stupid amounts of damage (especially if you go full antiproton like I did, with the recent Khitomer set).
-
I checked again and indeed the Vovin's entirety is intact. Just hope they get around to restoring the inspiration mechanic soon. As far as I can tell, it's been missing for at least a month now.
-
This could definitely be a bug involving the Nova One. Likely it might've been misflagged as an event ship or something.
-
Certain items cost more than others, even after discounts. The discounts are applied as a percentage (usually roughly half), and ONLY affect that reputation. Therefore, it's wise to eventually get all your reputations to tier 6 on at least one character. After that, further tier 6s do NOT apply further discounts; they…
-
I can confirm that my Vovin has parts of it missing. I can probably fix this by going to the ship customizer (maybe). If not, well then I'll have a somewhat different looking ship. It actually looks pretty cool with part of the central hull missing. 😁
-
Was the Vovin's missing inspiration mechanic fixed? I didn't see it mentioned.
-
General rule of thumb: you can either equip vuln locators OR isomags, but never both.
-
Honestly, this is really cool. Here's hoping they knock it out of the park on the Typhoon's trait and console.
-
That's true. The perennial stuff tends to require a lot of farming during the events (or REALLY deep pockets offseason--that is, buying the various currencies, then using those to buy the seasonal items; please note this takes literally tens of millions of EC on average per seasonal item.)
-
Actually, T5-X2 is the highest you can go, but it takes one additional step (T5 > T5-U > T5-X > T5-X2). The main difference between T5-X2 and T6-X2 is just that T5s don't unlock a ship trait (but T5-X2 still has six ship trait slots you can use)
-
Yeah--it's not too hard to farm 100,000 dil or so. Especially if you have a bunch of alts. Consider you can refine up to 8500 dil per day per toon (the extra 500 is if you're in a fleet with at least a tier I dilithium mine).
-
Summer event tends to offer previous years' items (well, most of them). I was able to pick up the 2023 Risian Kit for a few of my toons, and the Terraformer Kit and associated modules for a couple others.
-
Promo--Shrike (absolutely LOVING this thing!) Cstore 1--Dyson Destroyer Bird of Prey (thank God for that "bug"--thing is a BEAST) Cstore 2--Kortar Raptor (another absolute unit, completely wrecks enemies with insane torpedo damage) Lobi--Tal Shiar Adapted Destroyer and Altamid Plasma Omni for my Romulan Borg "barbie", as…
-
The subsystem targeting was added in the previous patch (August 29), I think. I'll have to check if the inspiration mechanic is missing. It could simply be that the mini-HUD showing the mechanic might've been locked as hidden by mistake. UPDATE: I can confirm there is no inspiration mechanic HUD currently showing on the…
-
In this case, it serves as a stronger weapon than the alternatives I had on hand at the time (didn't have anything of purple quality to fit into that slot).
-
@baddmoonrizin please close this thread to prevent any more trolls trying to derail it or flame me or STO.
-
Flagged the post above this for obvious flaming/trolling comments. Using the Kinetic Cutting Beam does not in itself entail the makings of a "terrible" player. If anything, it is a very viable source of additional damage that just so happens to be stopped by shields due to it being pure kinetic damage. That's what the…
-
I use the KCB on a lot of my ships. In fact, one of them even uses it as a FRONT weapon. It's just that good. It's basically a "beam torpedo". Not much good against shields, but damn do it smack on hulls.
-
I can confirm that the Eclectic Collector of Armaments does work as intended, as when I was aiming down sights at Maje Culleh's flagship during the patrol Wanted, its HP just dropped like a stone into water. This indicates that my Shrike is capable of at least 200,000 DPS (chewed through that bloated ship's HP in less than…

However, we did get a pre-patch, and we're going to find out later today exactly what that pre-patch entailed. However, all that was mentioned in the news were some bugfixes. So I'm a bit confused.
