No Thanks. I do not open Loot boxes! The Connie should always stay as that, an old underpowered ship compared to modern ships. My T0 Connie does just that, looks awesome and is superb fun playing away in it. I don't need more than that. I have quite a few T6 ships, and still find myself mostly playing older T5 ships, or…

I swap and change ships far to often on all my toons, the best part of STO is the choice of ships and builds and I am always playing with set up and ships. I do have a High DPS ship for each toon for fast runs when trying to maximise Earnings for playtime during event weekends which are based on the ship that performs best…
Dude, you have played STO far too much, take a break, go play something else, in 6 months you will feel different, I know as many feel like this and come back after a good hiatus, I feel mine coming after the winter event lol, hammered this year like mad on STO, and will need to take a break before summer event really (oh…
It is so like the Fleet T5U Atrox its not real. I resisted against it when seeing the layout, but I have bought it by turning in 640k Di-lithium for Zen, why, because I saw it outside ESD and I really love the look of it, its a brilliantly made ship, looks the business and am so happy to have it. Crazy that I was so…
Managed to run it with 6 toons, they all had around 7 done from last event, so only half way, I did it, but I can agree, probably will not do Mirror again. 1) its boring after so many times. 2) objectives are stupid as they are time gated 3) 15 minutes, times that by 6 toons, thats 1.30 a day plus que times ect, I can make…
I like it, looks awesome. Will not buy it though, currently no difference between this and a Fleet Upgraded Atrox. I prefer the Atrox Boff layout as its going Sci, the Universal Lt means I lose a LT Cmd Sci skill, the Intel Eng is a strange choice, and not one I fully understand. The New pets are pretty powerful, but to be…
1) Take a new account 2) make as many toons as possible, mostly KDF 3) Spend a month levelling them 4) Marauding and Contra for a month whilst grinding out rep gear 5) convert di-li to zen, buy keys sell! 6) Profit! Yes say what you want, but any newbie can do this, and it works! 4 Months, you are no longer space poor, yes…
Yes, love shuttle weekends :) Will be finished in time for this with mirror stuff, so great there. Picked up the Mirror Danube so looking forward to giving that a run in. Thinking about it, I have loads of shuttles, so this is going to be a great Shuttle weekend. Delta Flyer Yellowstone Mirror Danube Danube Type 8 Captains…
Stick some MK XIV Stuff on a Miranda, Spec and Trait properly and it is totally viable for most content the game has to offer. I love the Miranda, just the way it is, small hull, few weapons, few consoles, a real challenge to fly at lvl 60. Managed a 9k run at best with miranda, but I believe I can break 10k in her with a…
Listen Devs I approve, this is a great addition to ship management. To those that are wanting more storage for items out of this, when you drydock, the items are laced in bank from the ship, when you claim a new active ship, put the items back on the new ship!, you have lost exactly 0 space and gained 0 space! In other…
My Atrox - Sci Toon FT5U - 4 end, 4 sci, 3 tact consoles Hull - 91,334 Shields - 19,773 per facing ( Solanae vr mkxiv) 1 Hanger Elite Scorpion, 1 Peregrine Advanced (Extensive testing shows they are on par dps wise) 15 sec cool-down on Hanger pets 42% resistances before any eng skills used 130 AUX power with Temporal warp…
This is great news, I will deffo be using some Di-Li now ( not that I have any after upgrading like mad this week) but will have at least enough for all the t1 ships across all toons. I will probably not use the ships, but want them for the Admirality system as they will be most welcome with the unique bonuses. Thanks for…
I fly plenty of T5U ships, and lower, I also fly a fair few T6 ships. I do not open Lockboxes, and have so far not had any T5 or T6 lockbox ships except mirror or consolation ships such as APU. T5U is perfectly serviceable, it misses 1 Boff Slot ( normally a Lt or Lt Com ) and sometimes the use of a new Boff Spec such as…
Owning the Fleet Upgraded Advanced escort, I do not think I will purchase this. Hull and Shields are the same Consoles are the same. I would gain.. 1 LtCmd Eng Boff skill ( or use Ens Lt LtCmd Command skills) +5 Engine Power A situational console that takes space An added set bonus to go with MV Assult Mode console New…
Lets put it this way, If you had one, dropped from a box, and wanted to sell it, would you sell it for far less than market value? Value is in the eye of the purchaser, for you it may be overvalued ( for me as well, no way, I could buy far more performance for that price) but clearly not what the market believes. The other…
Yes, it does seem expensive to upgrade kit in STO. Here is how I have changed my view so as to stop all the frustration involved in the Upgrade System, and now I finally think I can go ahead and be happy with it. 1) Dilithium is hard to come by! If this is a problem for you, learn how to do it the most efficient way…
Have bought the following. Oddesy Bundle Atrox Carrier Karfi Battle Carrier Multi-Vector Advanced Escort* -edited Delta Pack Vandal Destroyer ( For Leech and levelling) Aeon Shuttle Delta Shuttle I do not regret any of them. Whilst they may be older now and the Atrox at FT5U being the worst performing, they are all still…
When Captains purchase a Research and Development Pack from the C-store and open it, they will receive either 10 Lobi Crystals or their choice of an Elachi Sheshar Dreadnought Cruiser with Intelligence or Command seating, in addition to the Research and Development Pack So let me get this right...... Purchase R&D Pack…
breadandcircuses;23871311 I will highlight on this 3) The Alt system introduced was always an "EXPLOIT" in general STO terms, like many others that have been closed, if you could not see this coming you are a) A new player b) Stupid c) Clueless Irrelevant of how you see it as wrong or right, that's the simple truth,…
After reading through 126 pages, I have decided to throw my useless argument in here as well! 1) They are Time Played specific rewards!, they are now over, the time has passed to obtain them, GET OVER IT! They are digital assets in a digital transient game, so get a Grip people. 2) I did not get any of the Summer/Winter…
The exchange is fluid, due to supply and demand. |I nearly bought 5000 Zen as it would now convert to over a Million Dilithium, which I could really use. But then I checked the price of Elite Dangerous and decided to buy that game instead :) Maybe if it goes back up to 400+ per Zen I will purchase, but there are far too…
I will not be buying these ships, they are nice and it is decent to have new mechanics for them, but I am still going to rock most of my T5U ships and Delta Ships. For me the problem exists in the frequency of the releases. The price one must pay every three months for having a new play-style to try out is simply…
?? How exactly did you come to this conclusion? You need spend literally no real money whatsoever to get whatever you want in this Game, show me another F2P like STO, I dare you! It seems to me that people with this outlook are simply not patient people at all, or cant plan! I get what I want out of Crafting the way it is,…
Whilst I agree with most of the good ideas through this thread, and also agree that massive amounts of wasted stuff gets crafted, I do not wish for it to change, at least not yet. I say this, because due to the imbalance of the [MOD] system and the need to craft hundreds of items to get the correct VR [MOD'S], and then the…
