  • You know, I've been keeping track of this game, and #DeltaRising ( #DetlaRising sounds equally as good :P) is th first expansion/patch thing that actually looks good. Gone are the days of the PWE PoWErcreep, and here we have a good MMO in it's place. Nice to finally meet you, STO, I don't think we ever got off to a good…
  • I just finished the 3 parts of the temporal set, and am planning to get the rule 62 to finish my Mobius build. Tipler cylinder is nice by the way, get a wells guys, it's good. /luckiest guy in the world, got 2 wells from dil grinding master keys
  • Back on topic, it is a shame that the Dreadnought Cruiser doesn't get the turn rate comm ability, as it could do with that. But at least it's getting any powers at all. Maybe the fabled fleet version will have all 4?
  • How about making Lobi's account bound, and make 1 lobi worth say 1000 or 10,000 GPL? Keep the gold (pressed latinum) farming business alive? I mean come on, you can buy the shuttles (woo, shuttles) on the exchange, and the other stuff isn't that essential. Boffs on ground aren't useful after the story content is finished,…
  • How do we know that they still use cloaks in the 29th century? Or, it states that the THolians removed a lot of the technology (yeah, just leave behind a Tipler Cylinder, good job tholians), so maybe they removed the cloak as well? Also, if the Klingons joined the Federation, how do we know that the romulans didn't as…
  • I notice this as well. The weapons are SPiral waves, or a Phaser weapon with an added Disruptor proc. On ground, spam weapons malfunction. In space, Viral Matrix them. It isn't that effective, but it helps. Tractor beam as well.
  • Make 2 new mini factions: First, update the Orions so they get a new storyline only available to Orion characters once at lvl 50. Perhaps about pirating, being betrayed etc, would help draw people into KDF more. Then, release a Spoonhea- uhh Cardassian mini-faction with a Cardassian only storyline, about being part of the…
  • okey dokey, finally got my tachyokinetic. now I need to respect, as I levelled up the game flying a cruiser with typical; nooby stuff like rainbow beams etc. and just poured oints in without thinking. any pointers on what points to put where?
  • This is possibly the best idea I have ever seen on these forums. In fact, this thread is possibly the best way to fix the balance issues without massive overhauls to every ship's stats.
  • I don't think that he's jealous. I'm actually a member of HOBO, and personally know yomatofan, and while I'm glad that they have reached T5 everything, you have to agree, it's way too much time and money for any fleet to reach tier 5, especially on a game with as many issues as STO. Also, congrats on reaching T5 though.…
  • I think it shows more that some people don't know what a credit card limit is.
  • A background of the Nebula: Constitution: A saucer, with a stardrive attacked by a neck, with 2 nacelles coming off the side. Miranda: Uses the same components as the connie, but the saucer has the torpedo launcher on the top of a module, with the nacelles bolted to the side. And then, Galaxy: A saucer, with a stardrive…
  • Easiest solution to all of this. Instead of nerfing the escorts, why not buff the cruisers? In Yesterday's Enterprise, the Enterprise-D takes a metric poo-ton of shots and isn't blown up. (only because Picard looks gallantly at the viewscreen while someone holds a candle under the camera xD) In comparison, the C4 packed in…
  • The whole game is seriously imbalanced. The way to get things done is DPS, while tanking it out as a cruiser/engineer while whittling down your enemy doesn't work, nor does a heals/debuffs science approach work. I use a tactical as my main atm in the RRW, as my engineer UFP and science KDF have taken a backseat. Escorts…
  • Ok, I've bought the Aegis set. Don't know how I'm ever going to afford the Lobi for stuff (perhaps divert ALL money and dilithium from romulan and KDF perhaps). You said you need keybinds to make the PVP build work, how so? My current keybinds is obtained from the Hilbert Guide. I hit space, shields distribute, weapons…
  • Ok then. Also, why does the PvP build use the Aegis set, I thought it was meant to be inferior to the Omega rep sets?
  • I'm gonna go work on the Romulan Rep then :P What's the advantages of having a Chroniton Beam Array anyway? I don't want to spend ages getting 200 Lobi and then waste them :P
  • My Mobius build isn't completely for DPS, it also has a bit of survivabilty and can throw the odd heal around, as there is almost always a heal spare. This build is NOWHERE near finished, but I thoguht id post it so people can point out if theres anything blatantly wrong. Vice Admiral D'Kmal Starfleet Engineer (No im not…
  • Why does the d'deridex retrofit only have a turn rate of 2? That's ridiculous, that's even worse than an Atrox carrier for gods sake, and that things bigger than Luxembourg! I really hope there's a legit reason like all turn rates are gonna be nerfed or something...
  • I was in a Khitomer Vortex, when it turned out there was 4 science captains, and me in escort when I'm only an engi. Oh dear. Immediately as the we popped the first transformer, one of the sciences in a wells went to the edge of the map and AFK'd. great. My internet plays up and I get DC'd for 30 seconds at best. I come…
  • So you're saying wait till mk XII MACO? got it. I have to say, you don't see many people using the Omega set. That's normally a sign xD
  • Why no love for the Fleet Advanced Escort? It's a patrol escort but more science than engi right? And multi-vector is pretty fun. Personally, I use a Mobius as it gets REALLY fun in PvP. If I ever get the lobi for the temporal set... then daym, that would be hench. :P
  • I had a talk with my fleet, and they said AP as well, so I think I'll go AP. I'll miss tetryon, but the Mobius is built for AP. Thanks for all your help guys :D
  • Well now reading all of the above, I'm even more unsure. I've used tetryon the most (only doing brief jumps to plasma-disruptor and phased polaron), so I think I'll stick with fleet tetryon. Also, saves me having to spend tons on decent mag regulators, as I already have 4 green mk xii tetryon pulse generators. TBH, I'm…
  • Antiproton dhc accx2 dmgx2 it is then, same for turrets. Doesn't matter about waiting till Thursday, it will take me until next Monday to have all the dil I need. Thanks guys, you were really helpful in a short space of time :D
  • I have a temporal science ship, unopened ofc, that I'd be willing to trade for a temporal destroyer. PM me @b3tazoid if you're interested, and we'll see if we can strike up an agreement :) As of today, the temporal science ship was selling for 77,990,000 EC while the temporal destroyer was selling for 80,000,000. I could…
  • My current Prometheus is the Barry Manilow-D, as its named after my ShiKahr which had a massive nose (saucer), so I thought "BARRY MANILOW! :D". My shuttle is the Lionel Richie, as I appear and shout "HELLOOOOO!", fire everything, and immediately turn round and get out of there. My Klingon Kamarag is the David Bowie-B,…
  • Problem here in West sussex, England. At least they're doing it at night-time my time :P
