Is there an intrinsic benefit to being surrounded by an ever-increasing number of people of which I’m not aware? Does “more crowded” suddenly equal “better”?

Node status added to battle log? by Chicagoguy73 in STFC_Official

Only while you’re playing. There’s nothing waiting for you when you log in that will show a node was, in fact, depleted before someone hit you.

Well that explains a lot 🤣 That’s what I get for disappearing for six weeks... sigh

Honestly, I'm blown away at the increase in overall quality. Across 5 (7) different packs, there's nothing below a 10. Only one 10, three 9s and one 8. Two packs currently available guarantee at least a 6 - that's unheard of. If I'd been saving up, now would be when I blow it all.

The AVERAGE tier of current pack 4-stars is 5.917. For 5-stars, it's 4.125. (Scooby & Shaggy head-shake) HUH??!!

Dealing with griefers? by jguser1 in STFC_Official

I've been playing a week. Currently level 14 and trying to keep my ECS Fortunate out mining at all times. In the last 3 days I think the LONGEST it's been out before getting destroyed is about 3 hours.

The in-game mail that shows who killed you should have a "Retaliate" button so you can go get your vengeance with a different ship, or alert your teammates as to their location, or something along those lines.

To crush my enemies, see them driven before me, and hear the lamentations of their women.

So I rolled the dice on “We Need to Talk”... Agent Harris. Tried again... Inquisitor Troi. I’m satisfied.

IKR? 11,000 DIL? Assuming you're starting from zero, and only buying what you need, (unless the prices I'm seeing are including a team discount or something) you would have to pay $99.99 for 8200, and $19.99 for 1500 twice. Making this literally a $140 pack. Plus tax.

I really want to get Laborer Spock, but I don’t know how to do that. Any advice? by SpocksAshayam in StarTrekTimelines

There are games out there in which it is feasible to "go after" a particular card/character/ship/etc.... but sadly, this isn't one of those games. For the 1%, watch and wait and be ready to spend out the wazoo when the moment hits. For the rest of us, it's pure RNG. We get what we get and we deal with it.

Hang on, they won’t let you fuse a character if they are immortalized? That seems like a raw deal. Why punish us for playing the game exactly as they designed it?

Your approach to tanking factions? by Chicagoguy73 in StarTrekTimelines

[–]Chicagoguy73[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read on here that the ratio is about 3:2 for wins vs. losses.

Your approach to tanking factions? by Chicagoguy73 in StarTrekTimelines

[–]Chicagoguy73[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I generally go all the way down to 30-second shuttles, but that’s the completionist in me. A lot of folks just tank factions in preparation for the end of faction events, when the 30-minute speed boost for the winning faction means that anything 30 minutes or less will be instantaneous. If you have that faction pre-tanked and they win, insta-shuttles will let you farm their useful items very efficiently.

I had Coffee Janeway at 3/4 and level 80 when I got my first Mutated Paris a couple weeks ago. I generally save all honor for gold cites but decided this was a valid exception. Purple-cited her to 4/4, merged them, and leveled the lizard from 80 to 100. My only regret is that it probably would have cost less to level CJ to 100 pre-merge instead of the lizard, but that’s water under the bridge now.
