  • Okay, I'm suffering seriously bad rubberbanding very frequently. Here's my tracert: Tracing route to patchserver.crypticstudios.com [208.95.185.41] over a maximum of 30 hops: 1 1 ms 1 ms 1 ms Wireless_Broadband_Router.home [192.168.1.1] 2 7 ms 8 ms 9 ms L100.WASHDC-VFTTP-93.verizon-gni.net [173.66.179 .1] 3 12 ms 9 ms 14…
  • Aha, so that's why I'm also getting bad rubberbanding in Diablo 3 as well as STO and Neverwinter. Pesky ISP! I guess we just get to wait out their issues even though I'm champing at the bit to get back to the game.
  • I'm getting lag too. It's definitely not my machine as I had the FPS graph running and whenever there was lag I wasn't getting framerate loss. Also, my connection to the net is fine (did tests and everything). Other games don't lag like this for me, so I'm wondering what's going on. I also have FIOS, but what am I supposed…
  • Since lifetime subscriptions are also gold accounts, we get all the same perks. One of the perks of being a subscriber is the auto refine function upon login or zoning. Check out the matrix and scroll down to the question mark for the dilithium refinement cap: http://sto.perfectworld.com/about/freetoplay/features-matrix
  • I did a double run of this yesterday and I received no computer core fragments.
  • I'm also experiencing a distinct lack of computer core fragments. I've posted a thread on the bug report subforum and linked back here. Here's my thread: http://sto-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=736831
  • Since Legacy of Romulus launched, I have received no Computer Core Fragments from destroying vessels during the Distress Signal mission in the Alhena system in the Neutral Zone. Prior to LoR I was receiving 1 or 2 per run with a very rare run giving me 0. Now every run yields only regular loot. There's a discussion of this…
  • Holy carp that's one powerful spacebar! I guess I'll look into macro/keybinding to make life easier. Thanks!
  • I bought mine off the auction hall. It wasn't cheap but I've found that I've gotten my money's worth. And, yeah, the Torpedo Launcher comes exclusive with the Regent on the C-Store. It can be moved to any other ship, but if that's your only reason for buying the Regent, don't bother since it's kind of expensive. The stats…
  • Okay, I was fiddling around in the skill planner and I think I might try this: http://skillplanner.stoacademy.com/?build=reduxofmyship_0 I do actually have that purple Mk XII Field Generator. :D I dunno about the Wide Arc Quantum, but I think it works. I'm also unsure about the first enhancement on the Warp Core. I just…
  • Alas, I just looked and it appears that I don't have any of those purple conn officers that reduce the cooldown of Tac Team. I have some greens, but that's it. Also, I only have the one DCE that's purple and one purple WCE. The rest are blue. So, looking at both sets of advice provided today, I'm considering doing the…
  • Ah, you meant a second EPtS not a second EPtW? Gotcha.
  • Oh wow, I just tested it out with a spare BOFF. So I can essentially keep EPtX up indefinitely. So, you recommended two copies of EPtW1 and while I'm flip flopping them, I pop in EPtS3?
  • Uh, that's a Fleet Assault Cruiser Refit... I only have the normal ACR. My fleet's a long way from a point where I can get that! :D
  • Another question: Why emitter arrays in the science console slots? Why not field generators for extra shields?
  • Wow, that's pretty nice! As I said earlier, I'm close to finishing out the Romulan Reputation, so I'm closer to getting those plasma weapons than the Tholian equipment. I'll keep an eye on things. I'm not able to afford stuff right now, but you've given me a lot to think about. Thanks for your time and advice!
  • Well, thanks to the introduction of APO into the build, I can definitely see getting rid of Polarize Hull. I guess I can just eat Subnucleonic Beam when it happens (I guess like most people). If I'm doing the constant up-time DOFF trick with Tac Team, I won't be doing the multiple torpedo launcher trick. I'm really…
  • Hey, that's all I was looking for! Advice on alternative ways to use this wonderful ship! Aux2Batt looks like almost everyone's using it from what I'm seeing on the forums and elsewhere. I guess it's a really good ability if that's the case, but that makes me nervous since that means the devs are looking closely at what…
  • LOL Nah, don't worry about PvP. Although... it WOULD be nice to pound the TRIBBLE out of my PvE Escort friends. Alas, they adapt like the Borg, so it would be a short-lived victory.
  • Thanks for that link. I definitely see the point in dropping some skills a bit if only because the net benefit is less from those when compared to picking up some green boxes elsewhere. Ah, the aft torps were there so I could use the same abilities fore and aft, coming and going. Basically all around same output. I've been…
  • I'd certainly appreciate specifics on those consoles. I'm almost tier V with both New Romulus and Task Force Omega (another couple of days!) and I'm pushing in on Tier III with Nukara Strikeforce. That said, I'm pretty poor right now as I'm dumping resources into pushing a Fleet project or two along (yay small fleet!). I…
  • Yeah, that's mainly why I'm reluctant to get rid of ET3 since it's been a life saver more often than not and also brings back up subsystems that have been disabled. Right now I have full power to weapons and I'm usually hovering around 120 at rest and dip as low as 75 with Beam Overload 3 but EPtW1 is there to help…
  • How's the damage output on 7 beam weapons? I've read that there's significant diminished returns on damage thanks to weapon power drain on loadouts that feature more than 4 beam arrays. Are you just hitting Aux 2 Batt every chance you get?
  • I attempted to do the Alhena Distress Call mission with my friends (there were four of us) and we automatically failed for some reason. One of us warped in and noticed there were no tanks to protect. As soon as someone else warped in, the mission auto-failed for everyone who entered. Also, the last few times I've done that…
  • I can verify this. I've attempted it twice and there's no 5th wave that appears. If they're cloaked, they're lousy P'tak and should face us as warriors! :D
  • Kind of wish they'd put a flag in the game somewhere... like instead of having varying levels of "bound" (like they appear to have now), they could have the padlock binding marker AND a no-contribution marker. Otherwise, no one's going to know unless they make a fairly costly mistake. This does not make for a fun game and…
  • Nope, both of my DOFFs were back from a mission. I've never tried to purchase multiples before this and I'd actually forgotten that I'd already purchased these particular DOFFs. That said, now that I have two of each, *shrugs* meh?
  • I actually do have TWO PURCHASED of each the Research Lab and Development Lab Scientists from Lieutenant Ferra. I'm not kidding here. They're exactly the same. I mean, silver lining, having two Research Lab Scientists that are very rare is kind of nice and I sent both of them on the same assignment last night. Besides, I'm…
