  • Just want to add I am having the same issue. Have CC Personal Shield MK XIV which says I should have 620.3 shields yet I have 531 shields. And the 531 starts dropping as soon as I start taking damage so there is no phantom 90 points of shielding.
  • What you are looking at is payout vs base. Payout includes doff bonus and any crit bonus calculated off base. So the "Establish Additional Military Bases..." missions have a stated base of 449 xp. This is being reduced to 269 xp base upon success. Then add in a 100% bump from 5 purple doffs and you get 538 xp rather than…
  • Seems like they have reduced xp rewards by 40% across the board.
  • Happened with me as well, put in a ticket for it right after. Got the Normal que rewards rather than Advanced que rewards.
  • Could be, if so then many of us are having the exact same coincidence. Put up a bunch of mats 10k below current ask. Leave, come back 12 hrs later and the exchange looks exactly the same and my mats are not showing. Put up two more that the same price (left the old ones). Those two sold immediately, the other ten were not…
  • 7. Give or take depending on your DPS. But a 10k boat can expect to need to solo grind about 7 hours to gain one level over 60. This is pretty easy to figure out. Did it earlier on my main and it worked out to 131xp per min on Normal. Did not have the time to try Elite but we know by now that xp over time drops…
  • It is my understanding that they have now said the 10/23 patch notes were wrong. Going from memory so it may be fuzzy, but the actual numbers are supposed to be Elite is worth 2x XP than Normal mobs. Which is unfortunate since it takes 5 times longer to down an elite mob over a Normal mob. The whole 1.75 thing should have…
  • Thanks for the info. I thought I read somewhere, concerning the foundry missions, Cryptic wanted a 480 dil to 15 min time invested. So they thought it would take 1.5 hrs to earn 54k xp regardless of what their testers told them. Not sure why they removed it though. They got the amount wrong. By now they should have a good…
  • From what folks on tribble were saying, this was known and reported well before DR dropped. Tribble not only whispered in their ear, they told them flat out it would be a problem. So yea, Cryptic knew of the problem beforehand, knew players were aware of the potential for making mass amounts of unrefined dil and they chose…
  • Exactly how much dil was given as a reward for leveling after specialization cap?
  • Seriously, less than 30 minutes? That's it, hugs and kisses for all of you.
  • Here is the truly baffling aspect. If they feel the exploit is setting the lvl <59 to squad lead then why all the fuss? Why turn them off? Two weeks ago the server was at level cap. Two weeks from now the server will be at level cap again. This is how MMOs work. So they shut down parts of maps to address a problem that is…
  • The only "exploit" happening was folks teaming up to grind XP... pretty much the same thing that happens in every other MMORPG in existence. Granted, it has been a while since that was necessary in STO and STO leveling content has mostly been a solo adventure. The Devs just did not recognize the activity that was going…
  • I upgraded my Counter-Command Covariant Shield Array Mk XII to Counter-Command Covariant Shield Array Mk XIII [Reg] Ultra Rare. Item set stayed yet there was no bump in shield cap from Mk XII. The only change came from the [Reg]. Hard to believe that if someone were to go from Mk XII VR to Mk XIII VR there would not have…
  • For finding the R&D doffs you have, I have noticed they are always at the top of the roster for each section. So if you have any in Tactical, they will be at the top of the Tactical roster. As for finding them on the exchange, you probably need to search for the list of R&D doff names and search the exchange by name.
  • Not sure if these are equal under the new upgrade system. Need to factor the dil cost of taking a MK XII VR to MK XIV VR vs taking a MK XIII R to MK XIV VR.
  • Don't have any KDF toons so I can not test it myself on that side, however, going by the thread from ELEVEN MONTHS AGO (hint hint Cryptic) this affects both KDF and FED alligned Rommies. None of the 3 Fed Rommies I doff with have seen any "Special Deal" assignment, however, my one Human Fed has seen them. If any other info…
  • Could you please post a screenie of your assignment log showing it complete? And this is not just any special deal, this is for Entertainment Provisions which if you crit gets you the rare/very rare hologram doffs.
  • From the sound of your post you are looking KDF side. I track the fed side and Rolor Nebula and Eridon Nebula were the only two available Sunday until 8PM then Delta Volanis and Betreka Nebula were available. Fed side, on a running 5 day average has been about 3 per day. As for looking for B'Tran on the fed side, it has…
  • I've been tracking what fed support missions have been available since 7/20 at the 0:00 block. Since then this is what I found... 7/20 00:00 - 2 Fed Support Missions 7/20 20:00 - 3 Fed Support Missions 7/21 16:00 - 4 Fed Support Missions 7/22 12:00 - 5 Fed Support Missions 7/23 08:00 - 0 Fed Support Missions For giggles I…
  • It is kinda funny that in a system with over 80K individual doffs someone actually thought a filter would not be necessary. Anyway, been looking for the giant hate thread on the old system. You know, the one with page after page of folks saying how they hate the original doff ui... "grrr, I hate critical thinking, gimme a…
  • Agreed. Having to remember which officer was used while searching through 300 others is just not fun. Not sure this will change. Folks say this new system makes better selections than the old system. This is simply not true. The old system focused on success and only success and it suggested them, it did not choose them…
  • Shiver. The new Liberator Escort. 50% innate resist to everything. Special Univeral Console adds 30K kinetic dam to all torps fired (75% shield bypass). Only available through crafting with Smedbucks though.
