  • I love being ablee to test the rep gear like this, I just wish they would let us test ships on tribble to. It's be nice to fly one there for alittle while testing before buying them you know?They did it once with rommie ships but no one else.
  • I am a fed player and I have a question... really another fed ship? I am interested in this ship as it looks to be the first nice T6 Ged sci ship.. BUT.... wealready had 5 now 6 T6 ships... klinks and roms have only 2 each.. I know this is Fed centric but come on.. we have Rommie and klinks playing too Devs.. show them…
  • With the pilot secondary spec, space traits, turn rate consoles and other things we have now you can easily make theAvenger turn well enough for a DHC build without cutting corners on the DPS build of it. I have made several DHC Avenger builds using different DHC's on different alts for fun. Beam boat builds only exceed…
  • It might be me... but I think that you thought a little too much about this.. lol.. not trying to troll you but you just seem to have spent a lot of time thinking about something that.. well does it even really matter? The "worlds" of many fictional settings are quite different from one another and most completely seperate…
  • This works because if you look closely the turrents "nose" is actually in the room and can shoot inside while the body is outside and can't be hit.. it's an odd clipping effect that sometimes works in our favor.
  • So you suggest we change our builds for every enemy we face? Really? I don't see that in the varied amount of weapons. Though a few of the rep types, as seen in Dyson and Counter Command for space and Omega and Nukra for ground had increased dmg against a single type of mob, most weapon and energy types are just as…
  • I've found that although it might be designed for that purpose, it's not exactly like it can only be used for that purpose. I mean by the time you hit T5 and get the final peices of the Rep set you've probably finished and are sick of that content anyway. I know I was especially with the Undine set. Atleast the new Delta…
  • HEY!!... I used to that... but Ionly did it in Story missions.. and I turned on the BC like alot so I could turnand face them... yeah.. I admited it didn't work well lol.. I just liked it for some reason :P.. but I also never told anyone else how uber it was.. in fact I told them it was painful.. I also never ever qued…
  • Okay, here's the deal. You can get the special items for the Dyson rep tree from the ground BZ, no ques required (in fact the ground BZ hands out marks and the items faster then any que ever would and you can run it without highend ground gear by the way though you will have a harder time and should find a group to help…
  • why did you run the project if you didn't want them? I am a fleet leader and my fleet has agreed that the tribbles are the one project we will never ever run... we hate those damn things
  • Ahh.. I misunderstood you. Yeah KDF and RR go the shaft so far with T6 ships for sure. Heck even RR got the shaft in buying intel boffs from the NPC in Delta Command. My Feds can get green/blues there with varied races to choose from, my RR alt only gets Romulan/Remen to pick from and only white. I have no KDF alts so I…
  • I actually like some of the intel space powers... I ground out the dill and changed it to zen and bought a Eclipse. However.. before that I WAS using intel/whatever boffs with normal space skills (lets face it retraining boffs only costs expterise which most of us have in the millions so no big deal) and was using some…
  • Daylight savings time for the win! Not all clocks or computer systems update the time automatically you know.
  • Intel is a specalization... sci/tac/engi are careers.. they will always be both and can pull skills from both intel + whatever career
  • I have defended Cryptic on multiple occisions, I have even told people to just deal with it and stop the damn whining and complaining already. I can NOT defend this action. Not after the Japori debacale and other issues they have had with their own data and yet here they go again announcing a HUGE nerf something that…
  • In 1 week with 5 characters capping dilli in the dyson spehere BZ I converted enough dilli to zen to make 1,850 zen. That was just 1 week and an investment of only a few hours and ZERO dollars. If it was refined dilli you need for rep gear.. well 5 characters times 8k refined a day = 40k refined a day and using the…
  • I'm guessing like like a mad broken glass cannon?
  • well... as a sci officer in it I find it peerless. I pulled the aux cannons off it, dismissed and reclaimed it and then set it up with 2 of the aux DHC's in front, the enc bio torp from the CC rep, in the rear a biophaser turrent from the rep tree and the heavy turrent and the anti-proton 360 beam array for using…
  • I'm a fed player with a single fed allied rom alt as well with the rest all fed... no KDF alts at all. I just don't like the KDF side, and yes I tried it and leveled a alt to 50 before deleteing him. Anyway.. having said all that I agree with this statement completely.
  • #DeltaRising is going to be a blast
  • Guess you don't read the dev blogs well... this is part of DR which launchs on 10/14. It is live on Tribble, not on Holodeck
  • yeah but dont forget they have been kicking around the idea of a Cardie faction for how long? So I don't think they are going to release more Cardie ships until either they have a Cardie faction or decide not to do one.
  • you sir are both a genious and a monster lol
  • Yeah.... umm.. I hate to be the bringer of bad news but they'll never do this. 1. In the past they have mentioned about needing specs on ships that do not change and are hardcoded (the currert upgrade system changes the ship to a new set of internal stats to use) having something be designed on the fly so to speak by a…
  • Might not have been such a good idea telling everyone about this, cuz if they didn't know... guess what... they do now and alot more people are going to try and exploit it if they aren't fixing it... which like you I hope they are. If I were you I would edit your post and remove the details of the exploit.
  • The aux cannons is why I use the vesta, between that and the support craft I launch from the hanger and I use a 360 arrary in the rear for sub system targeting. I run max aux and heavy on the sci skills and use it as more of a heavy sci ship then a fauxscort.. the added firepower from having the aux DHCs doesn't hurt but…
  • Then you miss the point of calling it "elite" diffculity. Normal was not like that and you could just go in guns blazing and get it done and yes you did not get the reward for that running it on elite got you BUT that was what you had to do. IF you wanted to get it done on the ELITE setting you had to set up your game for…
  • Many of us have alts that we use to spec in roles for just that very reason... or as mentioned you can just buy various ships to your hearts content and make a general build giving your character some of everything but not focising in any one thing so he can run any of those ships as you like. I will however note that my…
  • Driver coils isn't a complete waste. It really helps on a daily you can do later if you get a transwarp capable engine and go beyond warp 10 cruise speed. You only really need to reclaim those points if you really plan to min/max your ship and scrap every ounce of DPS out of her you can and frankly I think a total min/max…
  • Although ESD is often full of trolls, good players are there too. If you have questions about skills you can always ask, many others do, and this can lead to not having to buy respecs.
