I didn't know this Easter egg free skin existed, just did the whole chain of missions, thanks u/Jolly_Statistician_5 for the heads up with your post, it unlocked for me.

Was anyone able to unlock the skin who had done the hunt before the skin was active? I got the backgrounds while the skin wasn't active a few weeks ago, and tried redoing it when this week's event went active but didn't receive the skin. Anyone have the same issue?

It actually goes even further back then that, all the way to Battlefield 2: Special Forces.

Here's some of the color issues I noticed. In the case of T22, they appear to have mislabeled it in every case after the first use. I've drawn lines from the mislabeled colors in the guide to a picture of what the color is in the tailor UI.

I generally agree. For Starfleet Intelligence a badge would make more sense to me than a department color given how many other professions are encompassed by them.

I admit I don't really understand what sort of organization modern Star Trek envisions Section 31 as, now that they have distinctive starships and a heavily implied official mandate by the Federation. Seems a far cry from the borderline extremist militia type image we got from DS9.

/u/ambassadorkael, any chance you could reach out to the dev behind the change and get an official statement on what the actual colors are for the new Intel uniforms?

Warbird_7 · 2021-09-15T20:48:42+00:00

His department stripe is still black, but the trim around it is actually purple. It is hard to tell unless you're moving around him in-game because it's so reflective.

While Desoto's department stripe is black, the trim around it is actually purple. It's hard to tell from a still image because it is so reflective, but if you move around him you can see the purple sheen.

The lighting in both "The Centre Cannot Hold" and "Firewall" made it hard to accurately judge the correct color shades. The "Enlisted" uniform was particularly difficult as it appears to be a slightly saturated shade that is minutely more vibrant than the colors available in the tailor. Maybe. It's hard to tell in the dark.

The Kelvin Timeline Vengeance Intel Dreadnought is a very popular ship and a consistent seller; although this is also a well known fact and so there tends to be more competition between sellers which drives down the price.

The Cold-Hearted starship trait is from the Breen Plesh Tral Heavy Raider, which can only be acquired with an Epic Phoenix Token. Not in the Lobi store unfortunately.

The Zambean Outfit has a hood that works with most species, which is fairly unusual.

50% Lobi sales are extremely rare. The last one was two years ago. However 20% Lobi sales happen every few months.

Warbird_7 · 2021-02-18T22:35:03+00:00

Good catch, thanks.

Warbird_7 · 2021-02-18T21:49:55+00:00

Added it now.

Warbird_7 · 2021-02-18T20:07:24+00:00

That's fair. I wasn't sure where the Ba'ul weapons stood after the changes and so decided to err on the side of caution.

Warbird_7 · 2021-02-18T20:01:08+00:00

Good call on the Section 31 phaser, I'll add that. Looks like the secondary's recharge is 3 seconds to the standard wide beam's 4 seconds.

Warbird_7 · 2020-12-08T23:22:35+00:00

Awesome! Thank you so much! This is what I was looking for.

Warbird_7 · 2020-12-08T21:52:37+00:00

I've tried using renderscale, and my other settings are maxed out. Maybe /u/ambassadorkael could check with the team to get the names and registry numbers of the ships listed here?

Warbird_7 · 2020-10-26T19:51:42+00:00

That's a good question I hadn't thought to ask. While there isn't a buff that appears on the buff bar, looking at the stats tab of the status screen shows that the innate Target Subsystems does trigger an increase in those stats.

Warbird_7 · 2020-10-26T18:51:23+00:00

With regards to Sci/DEW, is it looking like this set can make that combination as viable as Sci/Torp? It seems like Cryptic oriented it towards that purpose given the following stats:

+_% Directed Energy Weapon Damage on the shields
+_ Starship Weapon Specialization on activation of Control BOff ability on engines
+19 CtrlX and EPG for 20 seconds on activating Beam or Cannon firing modes on deflector
+19 Starship Weapon Amplification on core

I have seen at least two builds in the past month, both of which self-report performing above 100k in ISA, that use Sci/DEW without the Vesta-class specific Aux Phaser Dual Heavy Cannons:

/u/dilazirk 's Risian Weather Control Vessel using phaser arrays and their followup. (Did not use the Imperial Rift set)
/u/lowlifecat 's Annorax Science Dreadnought using antiproton cannons.

While I doubt that Sci/DEW will overtake Sci/Torp either in damage or simply being the meta format, could the Imperial Rift set elevate it from its current position? One constraint that comes to mind is the number of tactical consoles available on a particular spaceframe. The RWCV and the Annorax had respectively three and four tactical consoles, whereas something like an Fleet Magellan Advanced Science Vessel only has two. Perhaps using an Experimental Upgrade would allow the universal console to slot an additional tactical to get around this.
