There are XP boosters from drop boxes that can be had on the exchange, fine if you have other toons with millions in ec going spare.
-
I wouldn't, instead if there was say the budget to do JJTrek I'd fund lots of lower budget films or TV/web shows on the basis that the cream would rise to the top and even the less good stuff would get an audience and make some money. There'd then be a process of producing less variety and develop the best/most popular…

If you want to throw money at it, you can buy cstore stuff like keys or R&D modules, sell them and then buy the ship on the exchange, to be honest no ship is so uniquely good in terms of either fun or effectiveness that it really justifies the expense. For example is this: http://sto.gamepedia.com/Jem%27Hadar_Attack_Ship…

The ground mission is quicker and less frustrating, you'd need to do it every other day or so, but get a valuable resource package for doing it.
-
Got it done, think it was the accolade not being registered correctly the first time.
-
Completed borg episodes, will redo Khitomer ground and see if the accolade works, right now it says I was assimilated but on the other toons talks about getting too close or some such.

Loading up with sci abilities is not that helpful for the team, that CPB2 is doing very little and TR+GW is a cooldown nightmare. Having a sci captain doesn't make sci abilities any better. I always liked my rom sci in a flt T'varo - DPS and have the sci abilities that helped the team.

Did an space ISE run a while a ago with a pug low dps group( all well under 5k), fine that happens, but one guy managed 540 dps, simply turning up and firing his weapons should have given any build three times that.
-
The undine rep can be done running Undine Infiltration ground mission, this includes a research materials box in the payout, box goes for 500k+ on the exchange, a couple of those could fund your early equipment and get you a trait or two. Doing crystaline elite for the nukara gives a box worth about 100k and the space borg…

The best source for the good stuff are the rep and fleet systems: the borg rep has 3 sets of good ground gear, a very good console and 360 degree beam weapon, doffs and 3 sets of space gear, its the oldest and a good place to start as the marks are obtained from STfs; once a rep system is completed the other characters can…
-
Undine Infiltration pays on first run 90 marks, 1 injection and queue box currently worth 450k
-
Undine Infiltration - queued PUG level with a couple of stages: first run around asking specific bajorans if they are undine, you quickly learn the correct responses and whether to detain them or not, when 5 are done the bonus thing triggers which is either defend orb or put out fires, both are easy, fire extinguishers are…
-
The Undine Infiltration takes about 10 mins and gives a daily bundle of undine marks plus the ones for running the level and one of the Isomorphic Injections, so is probably the quickest way to get marks and things to get rep gear. I'd take that over one of the ship combat Undine levels.
-
The character stats, tootltips, character/boff info sections and doff descriptions do have a poor reputation amongst players, sometimes its tough to see what a thing is actually doing.
-
Weapons don't stack with other weapons. The basic crit level comes from your BOFF crew, skills, fleet tac console etc, the critH for the weapon is then adds that weapon's cH and other situational modifiers like your accuracy minus their defense. Your base critH and critD levels can be seen when orbiting a planet,…
-
The best way to get ec for loot is within special events, right now the R&D weekend box is going to 280k, you get a box that opens and gives you that from doing an ISE run or any other high end queue. Ground STF and the Undine missions give a different box that is worth even more, I had on undine box supply 10 dent....…

The solution is not to bother with small fleets, the requirements have long been known and its obvious that it takes a big active fleet to get through the last couple of levels. People have moaned about this for well over a year and it is what it is. You and a few friends can operate together within a big fleet just as you…
-
The good lock box traits are expensive, it kinda tells you which ones are good and that everyone values space combat over ground. The current lockbox traits of ironsides and vicious have the same mechanism of stacking over the duration of a fight, very good for the tough fights where you need a boost and come in under 3m…
-
Is it a crafting system or a 'stickiness' mechanism? Any well equipped end-gamer won't want much from it, and you'll be in end-game by the time it is useful with the few things you do get being at best marginal improvements over easily grindable gear. I'd say the main purpose is to keep people logging in on a daily basis…

I thought the big thread had been given a drama queen name with players having their usual anti cryptic tantrum, generally forums are so full of tantrums that I've grown to ignore them. I hadn't even noticed that the Doff forum section had R&D added to it. I think more people will see the answer if its in this section.

Occasionally they do bonus mark weekends, so rep grind levels give an extra 50% or whatever. Generally the best approach is to get the tokens from one toon and do only 1 mission per day with the others so the dailies bonuses save you effort over the long term. Some of the rep levels now also give R&D boxes, which you'll…
-
Also mission replay when they have changed the mission. Ultimately you're going to stomp any mission that doesn't swarm you, have an uber boss or awkward layout that boff AI can't handle. All that rep gear and doffs have produced a power creep in ground combat.
-
With the good stuff unlocking at lvl 15 and requiring purple items that I don't see dropping?
-
Why not ignore them and buy the ships on the exchange if/when you can afford it? I think you can even set your looting so as not to take common items.
-
Getting the fleet gear requires tons of fleet credit, obtained from giving to a fleet, in particular fleet marks or dil, fine if you have a huge store of either. One work around is if you completed the doff reps you can start submitting fleet commendation reports for free fleet credit( 8 hourish doff mission); also a 50%…

There are pvp specialists doing this with scimis, there are threads.

Beta is team friendly in that anything debuffed is debuffed for everyone, many debuffs stack and everyone can load on debuffs and damage gets really high, great if lots of people are firing at the same target. Omega helps you do damage and survive - good for you, no benefit to team. But in pvp beta debuff can be easily…

Bought mirror vo'quv and the frigates became available in the fleet and dil store. Thats 1.8m ec wasted on the mirror ship.

My elite bop frigates go from 31k to 33k at 5 star not the 10% promised
