• And the Well Ran Dry It's part of the Flushed Out series on the Foundry. I really do recommend everyone who hasn't checked it out go do so, it's great.

• The thing about procs is that they appear to be balanced around the idea of "a nice bonus that happens every once in a while, but isn't supposed to be an extreme game-changer." Pets increase the number of sources of procs to the point where it feels like "a nice bonus that happens pretty much 24/7 and is annoying as hell."…

• hilbert was talking about this in opvp. his analysis is correct - the resist boost from ES is nice, but the shields have to be there in the first place for them to resist anything, and BFI provides the shields. it's pretty clear that BFI doffs are silly and need a looking-at.

• My decision to give up PVP and be a PVE hero some time back now looks completely justified. Enjoy your PVP game, folks.

• This is brilliant. Hope people get the reference.

• I'd just like to point out that, free bugship or otherwise, we've never had a single player leave Starfleet Dental in anything less than an amicable fashion. We're confident in our ability to vet potential recruits and we're also confident in our ability to pick the people who are the best fit for our fleet. Once people…

• It's actually fairly trivial to put out around 150-200k damage in a full minute. A minute is a very long time in STO. It's also pretty easy for a single decent player to outscore an entire team of five players on DPS if the former knows what they're doing. You have to consider that because of the way tactical buffs work…

• I'd like to see an immunity from AMS for, say, 30 seconds after the effect is removed or wears off. The length of the immunity is up for debate; there just should be one to mitigate the horrors of a whole team of five spamming it.

  in Ams, does it need a limitation? Comment by swimmingly August 2012
• Wesley did some testing on Tribble with the carrier. The commander universal is nuts and is probably far, far too strong. But I will say this - it has the coolest bridge in the game, bar none. Screenshots won't explain it, but there's a giant surprise on the bridge. You have to see it for yourself.

• Still one of the best starter guides on PVP! Players curious about improving their performance in PVP should read it closely.

• Same problem. Not being able to make the Mouse Over setting stick is impacting our ability to assess targets in PVE and PVP pretty bad. Could we get some kind of fix for this?

• Does anyone know how to get around the bug where changing fleet permissions just doesn't save at all? I got around it once but I'll be damned if I remember how!

• The biggest problem with it is that nothing clears it. The proc rate of 33%, combined with its ability to stack, basically results in a complete standstill with nothing the victim can do to remedy the situation. The stackability, in turn, is compounded by the ability to use spread to fire a bunch of chronitons - which…
