  • How about no. See sig.
  • The only thing wrong with the Jupiter (besides not being the superior Beta design) is the game community's own metagame. They've FAW'd for so long that they've blasted away the expertise required to have success in a carriers. They've gotten off easy for far too long with dreadnought carriers and pets with Attack Pattern…
  • We've been graciously given a double allowance of salty community manager and a great big bag of nothing.
  • But of course it is! By the same logic that allows people to tell us that we can't complain about lack of science ships KDF/RRF side because we have the Nandi...and let us ignore that by their definition of 'carrier' (i.e. if the single bay of the scimi makes it a carrier, then all single bay ships are carriers) they're…
  • But there are turrets and drones that use non-faction standard damage types: Biotech Turret uses Fluidic Antiproton, and both Vaddwaur drones (Shield and Anchor) use a Polaron beam if they don't have acceptable targets for their primary power. Also, I believe the drone summoned by the Photonic Tactical BOff uses Tetryon.
  • Instead of going for the easiest, lowest impact fix so they can claim they "fixed" the Resolute, I think they should do like they did with the Fleet Patrol Escort (non-Refit) and grandfather the current copies into the game and replace the ship that you get upon requisitioning the Resolute with one that has Lt Cmdr…
  • Don't forget that as a target tracking power, for balance reasons (ooh, I said the dreaded B word!) Micro-Photon should be less potent than most kinetic AoEs. Micro-Photon doesn't stop you from running Graviton Spike or Crystalline Shard, but what it does do is add a option to deal with targets likely to pass behind cover…
  • Given the current state of ships, anything KDF or RRF only would be "left-field"...
  • Why don't we cover T6-ifying the remaining RRF ship before we jump to upgrading loan ships from other factions. T6 Dhelan still needs to be made.
  • And now we have a new wrinkle in the "no new sci ships ever" issue. The Quantum Phase Resilient Shield Array. Why does the quantum shield array have a secondary deflector proc? Are we being conditioned to accept that science vessels are done? Are the devs trying to 'salvage' the time spent developing sec def code by…
  • Warning: Incoming Rant Why is there 'clamour' for science vessels*? Same reason there's threads asking for T6 version of the poster's favorite ship: they want to play with a preferred ship type and/or model. People enjoy playing by debuffing and disabling, people like to be the lynch-pin to taking down the target, some…
  • When the new sector space map rolled out, the Transwarp to Tau Dewa Sector Block was replaced with Transwarp Beta Quadrant Azure Sector.
  • It also may not be allowing you to slot the Plasma Grenade if you have a 'variant' Plasma Grenade already equipped, such as the Cryo Grenade from the last Winter Event.
  • Starting to get a hang of the Kor Torp bomber, I retract my previous comment about desiring command over pilot for this particular craft. I've run across situations where some of the pilot boff options are very helpful to torp bombing. Deploy Countermeasures: Gives a very short immunity to kinetic damage, helps usage of…
  • They're already upset it isn't a one-shot-kill-everything-on-screen ubership, so why not? >:)
  • Instead of talking about how disappointed we'll be, let's get a realistic expectation formed: Let's cover what we know about the Breen Rezreth Dreadnought Cruiser [T6]: Cruiser: Almost certain it'll have Engineering Commander BOff station, with a weapon layout of 5/3 or 4/4, mid to low turn rates Dreadnought: Dual cannons…
  • Put my KDF Sci in a Kor, using it as a psuedo science vessel. It's working pretty well, only thing I wish was different on the Kor is the specialization BOff, would've preferred Command.
  • You won't find any on the exchange, the exchange's max EC value is 500,000,000 (500 Million), the Vonph is being traded for near the in game per character max of 1,000,000,000 (1 Billion) EC.
  • The Timeship Shuttle comes with a shuttle only Deflector that has that ability. It's a disruptor damage type beam that grows in strength the longer it's active.
  • Trading Card Game you say? Then we should have to pick X number of 'cards' to be active at anyone time, i.e. a deck of cards. Then we can tailor that number low enough to keep the insane advantage Starfleet to a minimum (yes they'll have more high quality cards, but they'll have the same number max active at once). By…
  • Maximizing pet DPS revolves around one thing, and it's the same trick used to make high DPS builds: debuff, debuff, debuff. Debuff Damage Resistances: Attack Pattern Beta, Fire on my Mark, Sensor Scan, Sensor Analysis, Ionic Turbulence, disruptor/romplas weapons for increased raw damage. Debuff power levels: Energy Siphon,…
  • If you're after robust, look towards the Negh'tev (T6 Negh'var) or the Command Cruisers (Klinzhai, Ty'Gokor, An'quat). All 4 have access to command powers and some of those are very beneficial to tanky builds. Rally Point Marker is more or less a AoE Miracle Worker on a shorter cooldown and is Aux independent (useful if…
  • Hyperionic Radiation can and will damage you and your teammates in the exact same situation that causes DoT3 to: Confusion and Placates. Hitting a Confused or Placated target with many forms of contagious-style AoEs causes them to also spread allies. Hyperionic Radiation, Neutronic Radiation, Nanoprobe Infestation, Active…
  • Can you show me where your device based Heavy Whatever Turret has an ability? Only NPC turrets have abilities such as FAW or Torpedo Spread. Also, I'd like to see player deployable Medium Turrets as well. Tell me, if you deploy a Heavy Phaser Turret now, how many beams does it fire at the same time? "All Medium space…
  • Please note the mention of abilities on said turrets in the patch notes. The Player deployable turrets DO NOT have abilities. The turrets mentioned in the notes are NPC turrets.
  • Unless you have chose a faction to ally with, continue playing. Then revisit the Temporal Officer AFTER PICKING AN ALLY; level has nothing to do with it, but you have to meet the story requirements (generally you'd pick a faction around level 10-11, but with the bonus XP event, you will be much higher in level by the time…
  • While I can't say if there is story involving the Tzenkethi any time soon, Starbase 621 has been there since the expanded map was released.
  • The Delta Recruit Photonic Engineer is Fed or KDF aligned. You can reclaim it once you pick a faction to ally with. Opening it before then does not give a Romulan Photonic Engineer, it simply gives nothing. I would imagine that it's supposed to be unopenable until you select a faction.
  • For the Devs' recent patterns, the question is more likely "If we make this a gambling prize, how much will the average player shell out for it?"
  • Specializations I'd like to see, assuming we get more (might end up like fleet holdings, how long was there between the spire and lab? a year and a half?). Secondary Specs: Flight-Deck Operations: Space half/secondary spec focused on propagating your ship's buffs to your pets. Combat Medic: Ground. Provides upgrades to…
