  • I have to concur on the adding of Reman ships for RR. It's not like they have a huge array of races to choose from. It would make sense for them to create a set of 3 Reman ships based on a cut down version of the Scimitar but still Fed cruiser sized. Then later on add a set of 3 RR versions of those 3 Reman ships similar…
  • Well I have been gone for 2 years and my favorite ship was the Scimitar prior to leaving. I think it's fortuitous that the new flagship is another Scimitar. I had zero interest in the T6 ships and I was just about settled into using my old T5 Scimitar until now. I think the fact that we can change it's look and mix and…
  • Thank you so very much for looking at this. Let me ask if how odd this looks to you. This is probably one of the most clear examples of odd hull damage I seen this week. It occurred yesterday about 6:30pm EST while running the Mirror Invasion missions back to back like crazy. At one point after we defeated the main…
  • I have used it numerous times with 109 base PG and 120 AUX and I only hit a couple of times over 50k on multiple targets. Maybe you were lucky and all of their shields were down all in your facing. I try to do this on purpose by using CB and unleashing CV2 + TS3 with buffs then immediately hit RedMatter + EPtA, decloak,…
  • Thank you so much for posting this. I will keep what I seen in mind.
  • heizluefta I would love to see your full build on stoacademy if you think you can spare the time to make it. It's kind of neat because you get to play with the skills too and get them "just right" instead of having to mess with it in game before deciding on what to do.
  • Yes this happens. It's infrequent and very random in the context it occurs in but I have seen this many times this past week. I'm not sure if it's a problem with just the Scimitar or a much wider issue.
  • Anyone is welcome to tear mine apart. I'm more than willing and able to take criticism. http://www.stoacademy.com/tools/skillplanner/?build=flayedangel_4243 Needless to say it's a work in progress. Much better sets/core coming in 2 weeks. I'm thinking of dropping the rear torp and replacing it with another turret but…
  • This might help. This is still very much a work in progress but this current build can do between 5,400 - 6,700 EncDPS in elite Borg STFs. I'm still two weeks away from Tier5 Rep sets. Not sure how far until my fleet unlocks the XII Ultra Elite Singularity Core. We unlock the interior of the mine in a few days so that…
  • I second mixing and matching sets. If you can have a look at your fleet store if you have a chance to see what's available there for you. It's highly unlikely you will find a full set that actually meets your needs. That's not your fault. It's just almost every set was very poorly conceived and they are yet to fix them…
  • What's not true at all? I'm not understanding where we disagree. You happen to fire on a large group of largely unmoving ships thereby causing a very large amount of damage. You very likely crit to do that much damage or they were all clustered in a very tight space well under 5k from you to pull that off. You can do the…
  • Out of everything you posted in the threads your only valid point is the leech and putting points in FlowCap. Your constructive points end there. I use leech and have 6 points in Flow Cap. My Adapted Destroyer is much more survivable even when I didn't care what I put skill points in. With the Scimitar I very carefully…
  • And I expected such a retort. I used the exact same gear on my Adapted Destroyer in the exact same STFs with less effective shields/hull (different skill setup). and had no such issues. Some of us know what we are doing and have a fair amount of experience with different ships to know better. You made your point. If you…
  • Cryptic basically decided that because Romulans get the singularity drive and battle cloak, no nevermind that KDF also gets battle cloak, we get -10 to all sub systems. Their logic was that the Singularity Core is so overpowered with it's many useful abilities that they must disable it completely for a minute on top of…
  • Congrats. You have no issues so the problem must be with the players. Forgive me while I groan and roll my eyes. The dozens of us who have posted pointing out the various problems kindly disagree.
  • The Thalaron Pulse is only devastating if you happen to catch a large number of ships in it. This is easier said than done when many NPC ships have EPtE and they zip around. On average the amount of my total damage that comes from TP is 3-7% per engagement. That's with buffing it to or near 120 before firing. I think I'm…
  • I tried the dismissing trick and followed it to the letter. It fixed the issue with me not being able to purchase Romulan Hangars. I did some extensive testing by running the Mirror Invasion STF about ten times in a row when it was up. Didn't blow up but came close a few times. As soon as a few ships started firing on me…
  • No you are not unlucky. He is pointing out the fact that the issues are not impacting him or doesn't appear to be impacting him to a severe degree. I'm not sure why he isn't using energy weapons. It seems insane to turn the Scim into a torpedo boat and if you had to do that to do proper damage the ship needs to be looked…
  • If you are going to do fraps do it from STFs and eSTFs that actually matter. Apart from the nebula engagement the ships are too far apart for the pulse to be of any use. They are useful vs the gate, CE or a static TCube but you can't use it on both since the 3min CD prevents it. So far I crit with it once for 90k and it…
  • I have also seen the issue with the BOfs getting removed from the stations, all the BOfs having their icons changed to ships and you cannot use some functions with the ship until you click on them and it resets them back to normal. I have also had every ability removed from the ship not just when I released my shuttles,…
  • This is what I mean. My experience is slightly different from others and there are many variations. At one point I thought maybe it's an issue with the database since it wasn't impacting everyone but those it did impact it seemed to stay no matter what. However you experience suggests otherwise. There doesn't appear to be…
  • Lets not give them the wrong information. For some people dismissing the shuttle didn't completely fix the issue. I'm an example of that. I still get hits that fold the ship in half or knock most of the crew out in one hit. The difference is it's not happening as often as when I had a shuttle. It's happening maybe one in…
  • Another issue and I'm not sure if this is a bug or it just needs to be buffed but the base damage for Thalaron Pulse even when speced for it and at 120 AUX with at least some PG items is still only around 40K. I admit I did see a 62k mouse over once when I first started testing it but haven't seen that since and I haven't…
  • Found another bug. I fought the last Tarantula on the Vault mission and the Thalaron Pulse fired and did nothing. Not no damage, it did nothing. let me explain how it played out. I engage the Tarantula with normal weapons. It uses an ability on me to teleport me in front of him where he remains the whole time at around…
  • I did finally get an initial response which is good. What they plan to do is way confusing and contradictory. After reading it I just gave up and told them I don't care if they wipe the account just get it working. Too much.
  • Today makes it one week for me waiting on a response as well. In my case my old STO account is still with Cryptic as I never moved it but forgot the password or it won't let me log into it because of the move to PW. I asked them to move that account onto this one and gave them a PILE of personal/credit info only I can get.…
