  • Thanks. I'll try waiting for the system to take my board away first. Really annoyed on the last run as I was in 1st place at the time (that doesn't happen very often) and I'd just got the 'I win' super floater.
  • I've had invisible grav wells and eject warp plasmas on several runs. It can make positioning a tad tricky at times.
  • Oh dear. I bought 10 of them. But it is satisfying crafting a Mk II weapon with (pen) and then using one of them.
  • The (crafted) PEP torpedo is better than the Borg or Romulan ones (though I love the look of both of them). The Borg console is good, the 2 piece bonus is occasionally useful, but the 3 piece set bonus only temporarily raises the BA to about the same damage as a DBB; so your better of with non 'rep' weapons. All the other…
  • Twas the plan! - 15 toons all @ XIV, preparing for XV. Still; TRIBBLE metrics if your looking for anything more than that, out of the packs. Wish Cryptic had to publish actual stats - gambling in the dark - sucks.
  • FBP is about the only thing that kills me. Map would be easy to fix: Random number of portals, say 20-30, pulse triggers when there's only 2 left. Switch to a points system: Normal: half for finishing, half based on % station health. Advanced: all points based on % station health (map fails on zero health). So, the better…
  • Love: "Power Creep" - Yes I know it's bad for the game long-term, but I just love upgrading my ships to kill stuff faster. The non time-gated space 'queues', mostly ISA and KVA; KVA is my favorite but ISA drops faster. Different ships and different builds, one for each 'toon', I try to have no two builds alike and even…
  • I'm Very Disappointed, It feels like they don't care at all about our views and opinions.
  • Emergency Patch today - Hooray!! Did they fix it?... Did they fix it?... Nope!... ...Silly me!
  • Saw it 32 time in the last hour, just doffing and one MI. Please take it away. Perhaps once when you log on, but not twice for every character. It's nearly as annoying as that bloke that pop up, interrupting you, whatever your doing, to tell you that the timeline is secure!
  • Please remove this, it's very annoying.
  • By all means, ask for an 'Elite' version of the Borg maps, but ISA is the one map you can rely on to drop quickly. Your suggestion would send it the same way as Fez and BHE, unpuggable maps left only for a tiny percentage of 'elite' players. When I log on, I just want to fly around and blow stuff up, ISA is not my favorite…
  • They fire all right, they just don't do much damage. I tried them out, couldn't get 1k out of them and that's on an all torpedo build. Has anyone else parsed them? At the moment they just look pretty spamming torpedo spreads, but damage-wise, they're junk.
  • Support found it for me, Thank you, good service.
  • Shame the Universal Consoles, aren't. I would have like to try the Wing Torpedo Platforms one out on a couple of my torpedo boats.
  • Breen Transphasic Cluster Torpedo. Just upgraded it to 'Epic', and it vanished. Ticket in, but not sure how long your supposed to wait for a response.
  • Tried it, couldn't get it to work. Not saying that's a definitive answer (but ran pets at 10K in ISA with me doing my own BOs, and pets at 4K with me relying only on (7 beams triggering) 'over' procs, the parser didn't boil it down to a definitive answer, but most likely the answer is no. Shame that, would have been nice.
  • No definitive list I know of. There's also Coordinated Assault (from a Heavy Escort Carrier) that give pets an extra BO or CRF when you use it. Reactive Repair Nanites works well with Non-Linear Progression, (if you can spend enough time going backwards). Also if you've got a Pilot seat, there's Reinforcements Squadron.…
  • The Advanced Obelisk Carrier 3 piece set can give the Swarmers "Emergency Power to'x'", it's the only ship that can do that (to my knowledge). I find giving them a lot of 'EPtW' very helpful, with the occasional 'EPtS' to keep them alive longer. I't not 'essential' in any way, but to my mind it puts the AOC in 1st place as…
  • Regularly? How? What's the build? Or is it just on special runs with stacked Recluses?
  • You can get the swarmers closer to 30k, but you need all the pet boosting traits you can find and an Advanced Obelisk Carrier. I'd love to know if anyone has got higher.
  • Any pet buffing Tac console that wasn't a 'Locator', would be balance enough.
  • The Recluse is very good, but I'd have to say the Advanced Obelisk Carrier is the best. The 3 piece set: Enhanced Carrier Synergy is 'possibly' the best pet buffing power and can only be used on that ship.
  • So true. But it is fun melting things faster.
  • I'm loving playing mine at the moment. I'm getting some good dps out of pets now, but carrier-focused builds are never going to be much more than a 'fun' build.
  • I have quite a few, each one in different ships, with a different theme for each. It allows me to try out 'new stuff' without having to do major changes to any one build. You don't have to play each alt through all the story missions, once you get doffs, a couple of minutes a day and they'll level up in a few months; and…
  • You can always find the notifications (and correct spelling) in chat history and anyone who thinks there's something fishy going on can start sending 'congratulatory messages' to lots of the 'winners' and see if any of the reply stating that they're not.
  • Improving the pets AI is the most important issue. In addition to that, the top of my wish list would be a pets tab, 1 or 2 for all carriers and any other ships with any kind of combat pet. It seems such a shame that you can upgrade your ship from, say, 10k to 50k, but can't upgrade your pets from 5k to 25k. It would be…
  • First time I've ever played it, same for two of the others in the Pug, got to fifty-something. Had no idea what was going on, what the weird lights meant, why I seemed to slide uncontrollably at times or where the 'one-shotting' was coming from. Very glad when it was finally over. Wish I'd known that you're supposed to…
