  • Lifetime subscriber here. In the 5 years STO has been around, I have taken 2 extended leaves of absence, both spanned 8-12 months a piece. During those times off STO, I ventured to other PC games to get a break from STO. It's not normal to get burnt out, quite honestly I was getting more burned out on the grinding. While I…
  • Back in the day of PvP, I seen some pretty wicked Odyssey players who would tractor beam klinks, pin them down and hit them with everything (especially SCI's running in cruisers, subnuke). Likewise, I seen Klink Kar'Fi carriers do the same thing. Pretty nasty! If you know what your doing to accommodate for speed, console,…
  • Yes, please provide the doff misson's that your gaining 50k on. I run about a dozen per day, and all crits net me between 800 to 900 dil. So if your getting 50k on a few doff missions, please enlighten us on which missions these are.
  • Agree with this post, signed. PWE/Cryptic, would gladly pay 5000 zen to open up account wide unlocks, or transfer lockbox ship to another alt. :D
  • Hey, can you ping me in STO, I'm working on fine-tooning my SCI build that is specc'd into Particle Generators. Essentially to one shot the alpha strikers in PvP with my feedback pulse! There is nothing more glorious than seeing a "uber alpha striker" getting one shotted by their own damage! :D
  • I'm up for removing Aux2Bat setups, if we can remove the following setups as well; - Speed Tanking - Feedback Pulse builds - Extend Shield Chainers - Zombie Builds - Vamp Builds - Bleedthrough Builds - Leech Builds - Gravity Well Suckers - Uber de-cloak alpha-strikers - 50K dmg Scimitar Elite Fleet Run Builds - ... and a…
  • Update. Finally got the purple doff in B'Tran last night, Ten of Ten. The only thing I did differently this time was manually select the doff's to the assignment, versus having my bridge officer choose for me. Thanks again!
  • great, thx for the feedback... this definitely helps!
  • I know PWE will never make it happen, but I wish lobi ship purchases were account wide as like they just recently did with lobi. Yeah, I know... it's there way of making more money off you.
  • It's pretty routine to see Scimitars solo majority of all fleet runs. In particular, I've seen Scimmy's take out the elite borg runs in less than 5 minutes, without the help from the team. I've parsed some elite runs, and these guys are hitting a total of 45K to 50K per run.
  • Personally, I wish PWE would simply implement something within STO. It would be nice to see end results after running a fleet run. It's done within PvP, don't know why they can't implement this over to the PvE world.
  • While this build shines in PvE, it is a death sentence in PvP. I tried it a few times in Kar'rat and while you may be able to take out a person in 1v1, another will have time to take you out with zero problem... that is if you don't quickly re-cloak. Nevertheless, this is a great build for PvE Dilithium farming, very fast…
  • I guess that would explain why I'm getting popped even though my shields stay up. in Kar'rat that is. By the time I react to the alpha, my hull is down to 30%, then their friend finishes me off with next alpha strike. Those Elachi weapons are nasty....
  • Can someone post a build from skillplanner, I would like to see how this setup is created. I'm curious since this is the hottest thing in Kar'rat, it's littered with speed tankers.
  • The most challenging way to play STO, is with your feet!
  • I personally haven't had much luck with running Aux2Bat on my Jem Dread, and I'm using 3 purple tech doffs. While I understand the methodolgy, slow hull regen will kill you flat if your Aux is zero'd out 90% of the time, especially in PvP. To be honest, I have much better luck cycling two AtSiF2, not to mention the damage…
  • Agree with the OP, seeing a Galaxy class flying around is almost as rare as seeing Sasquatch! ;) With the addition to new ships, factions, lockboxes, etc. The Galaxy Exploration Cruiser is pretty much obsolete. The Dreadnought Cruiser is really the closet thing that emulates the Galaxy, even then its truly not a Galaxy-R…
  • Thanks for the feedback! I will definitely go back and re-explore my Tholian Recluse Carrier build! Curious you mention doff cooldown Science Team, which doffs and how many should I put on duty.
  • Yeah, Ill get right onto making a zombie build so I can do zero damage. All in an effort to simply survive 1, maybe 2 alpha strikes simultaneously.
  • Sorry, been here since beta, and well before Romulans have been released. Putting a senior level Klink in a BoP that knows what their doing can easily one shot people. Nevertheless, PvP is broken in this game anyway.... That 10% of the PvP community just went down to 5%.
  • BoP's finally getting a boost? :confused: Aren't these the ships that I see doing these "multiple buff-up-decloak-alpha-strike-one-shotting" people in PvP, then cloaks and sits.... waiting for the the next Fed victim??? Sorry, but I must be playing the wrong game. If there are players out there that think BoP's need a…
  • I used to run Aux2Bat on my JHDC, the problem I had was both the rotation and timing it right in PvP. Not to mention as soon as you hit the Aux2Bat, your aux power goes to zero, which kills your shield regen rate. Personally for me, I'm much more tankier running without Aux2Bat. While I love Aux2Bat on some of my Fed…
  • Curious, what about those in the community that spent $$$ on EC and/or Zen to obtain the ability to acquire the elite hanger pets, having purchased-won the JHAS? What your asking for is logically possible, however would be be met with serious whiplash from the community. Think of it in this perspective, would you be okay…
  • Kar'rat, one of the coolest places to play STO. Where you can play PvE and PvP in one zone.... and get reported. Lost count how many times I have been reported by other players because they think I'm stalking-hassassing them. Go Figure??? :confused:
  • I just switched to this build for my JHDC, and it's wicked nasty... especially in Kar'rat where all the alpha strike klinks run wild. My weapons loadout is all Fleet Polaron, spec'd in skills that effect flow caps, all defense related buffs in rep system.…
  • Can I assume these builds are PvE, not PvP?
  • From one Fed player to another, please provide a link of your build, console loadout, weapons, skills, boffs, doffs, and power levels. I've been a Fed cruiser player since beta, and I must be doing something wrong. :(
  • I was getting ready to ask about the avenger class, does this work? I heard the shield/hull rate is really low.
  • Interesting.... what class is this geared towards, can I assume engineer or sci. Cruiser type, im guessing a cruiser with a high shield modifer, i.e., 1.3, 1.15, etc. I heard a lot of players saying that Galors are really good when it comes to unkillable due to the boff loadout and shield modifier, coupled with the borg…
  • You hit the nail right on the head when you said "...it's almost game breaking!" I've been cloaked in my scimmy watching these bug-ship players single handedly take on 4-5 Feds without losing shields, hull, and/or power. Most cases they are able to take out 3 of the 5 feds before zipping off due to cooldowns, or when a sci…
