Thanks a lot guys. I bought a 10 pack of master keys, flogged a few of them and decked my ships out, been rocking some PVE queues for a bit. I really should continue with the episodes and at least make a stab at completing the game at least up until the later episodes.
Thanks for the advise guys. So, I get some Zen, buy a lock-box key, flog it on the exchange and outfit both ships. That sounds like the best answer. I don't want to have some award winning ship, I just want a ship kitted out as I want it to go out and play as I do. I am neither that hot a captain nor that great at kitting…
So, in effect, Cryptic have stopped letting people kit out their ships by spending real money? I have to admit, despite 150 hours of STO under my belt, I still have no clue how any of it works, I just enjoy flying my ships, doing missions and playing co-op, I just collect ships and equipment and play. I have utterly no…
Hi I didn't leave as such, I just didn't play the game much for several months. I logged back in about a month ago, and bought a load of gear with dilithium on the exchange (after trading some Zen for it), came back in last couple of days after having had the PWE email about these new ships, and bought them. Am I now stuck…
If you are quite skilled and cunning and know your ship and when and how to run away, then I would go with a build totally focused on dishing out as much damage as possible in your frontal arc. This is what Escorts were originally for. High speed hit and run attacks, avoiding taking too much enemy fire whilst dishing out a…
Just build the thing how you feel it should be built, the way you want to play. I find cannons make for more involved play, but there is a lot to be said for the ice-berg like floating around with beams appearing from every angle as you soak up damage.
Don't click the button unless you want the experience. I was entering the borg battles when I was about rank 20 or so, and had some nifty gear. Yes you can't do the outright business like higher rank players but I enjoyed the experience of team work and doing my bit. The fact I was destroyed a few times and didn't have the…
I am all for the idea of a big, massive even, battle-sponge of a ship but in my mind, the Oddy and Venture/Galaxy-X are already battleships of a sort. You can't have a Dreadnought cruiser, the term in naval circles at least, seems a bit oxymoronic to me. Only thing I don't like is that the Typhoon looks a bit nerf.…
I know how complex and detailed the in game's stat system can be, but I try not to let any of that get in the way of my enjoyment of the game. I basically build however the heck I want and play how I want. Might not be canon or true to life or give the ultimate MMO build etc.
Hi guys, first post, but been playing for more than one year. I'm at rank 43 I think, been playing the game entirely PVE and running team missions etc, PVP does nothing for me as I am far from an experience MMO or STO player. I have to say I bought the starter pack for STO at the outset, amongst some other things, mainly…
