Holding out for Typhon myself. ^^ Though I suspect it'll be a while! XD Oddly, I'll be able to get the big prize as soon as I play the upcoming Flagship event. Hooray for bonus points throughout the event! XD As for what I'll get from the big T6 box, I'm on the fence.
Right? The Solanae set and the themed spacesuits are the reasons I hold my nose for "Step Between Stars". I have a soft spot for pretty much all mid century sci fi movies in general, so all the TOS related eps check that box for me. And I agree that it is quite annoying to play as anyone other than one's main character,…
I'll also agree that Dust to Dust is a royal pain in the caboose. I'd also like to add "Step Between Stars" to the list. Arguably the worst offender for my money. The space walking part is hella persnickety, to say nothing of the space combat end in that soup sandwich of a ship they force you into. Only silver lining is…
When I play ground combat here in STO, I generally imagine it's the late 70s/early 80s, playing with Star Wars and G.I. Joe figures. Or at least that's what it takes me back to. Then again, I have a penchant for attempting to match uniforms to action figure outfits. ^_~
STO could very much do with a more unified colour pallete. Especially when one sees that a jacket may have one set of colour options, and trousers quite another. As it's been brought up here, I am also fairly active in Second Life, and I have seen such things happen there, where something that is supposed to be white is…
I very much agree with your assessment on berets. Way overdue! As for minigun, I am afraid I can't be that much help, aside from knowing that they exist, and it seems that they are available in the assorted energy types. It looks like anti-proton has a crit severity bonus. https://sto.fandom.com/wiki/Assault_Minigun Good…
Cheers and thanks! If I'm not mistaken, Anchor of Grethor, and I think the winter events had some universal kit modules whose names currently escape me seem fairly close in flavour and mechanics to Tir McDohl's "Soul Eater" Rune. So I can see that being part of the build. =D I will have to look into the science stuff,…
Very much the very ship that started it all - the Connie. I've always had a soft spot for the overall mid-century look in general, so pretty much everything TOS ticks those boxes for me.
I did the same thing on one toon as well. >_< Now my one that accidentally grabbed it can't get it anymore, now that my KDF recruit has actually maxed out marauding. We can haz Adetpa reclaim nao?
That I can get behind. Would be nice to have something like that once one maxes out R+D in a particular school. Though it does beg the question of resources that could be used in the making of these ultimate tech upgrades. I'd imagine a fair chunk of dil and/or EC a pop for one.
I'd have to say a mix of both performance and aesthetics. My absolute favourite in all Star Trek in general is the original 1960s Enterprise, partly because it's the ship that started it all, and partly because I have a soft spot for that mid century retro look in general, including the sci fi of that era. I am also fond…
