    Hoping For Advice Re: What To Do With Old Event Stuff

    Posted: 29 Nov 2020 08:01 AM PST

    I recently returned after being gone for a couple of years. I've slowly worked my way through my roster, and have collected all the "autofill" event changes that took place when they switched up the system.

    Some of my earlier characters still have Lohlunat Prize Vouchers (2018 and 2019) and 8th Anniversary Prize Vouchers.

    I vaguely remember a way we could apply those towards later events, but I think it was a temporary option that was removed once the changeover happened.

    I was wondering what I should do with what's left over. I suspect I'll probably have to end up deleting them for storage space, but if there is any value left in them, I figure I should try and use them for something.

    And since I don't have anything else pressing to do, here is an image that made me laugh when I first loaded into the game today and saw what was happening:

    Tactical Escort Refit Cloaking Device Equip Issue/Possible Bug

    Posted: 28 Nov 2020 03:31 PM PST

    Tactical Escort Refit Cloaking Device Equip Issue/Possible Bug

    So the Console - Universal - Cloaking Device says in its description (screenshot attached) that it can be equipped on ANY Federation Tactical Escort and the STO gamepedia page for the Console - Universal - Cloaking Device shows that the second ship in the eligible starships list is the Tactical Escort Refit (also screenshot attached).

    Yet when I go to equip it it says "Class requirements not met" so the question is am I doing something wrong, is the gamepedia page/tooltip wrong, am I crazy, or is it simply bugged?

    Image showing the console saying \"ANY Federation Tactical Escort\"

    "You cannot change the species of the Character"

    Posted: 28 Nov 2020 03:50 PM PST

    Great new bug. Can't change BOFF outfits at all. Every single one I get the message "You cannot change the species of the Character"
    And they want us to spend money on this?

    How would you feel about a DS9 uniform that doesn't look wrinkled repackaged as a Voyager uniform?

    Posted: 29 Nov 2020 02:22 AM PST

    Compare the STO TNG season 1 uniforms to their regular TNG uniform. The wrinkles are still there but they don't feel like the tailor took a vacation that week. I know VOY is probably the least popular of the golden age Star Treks, but I would like an option something that doesn't claim that the uniform was made famous by Sisko and Dax.

    At least VOY kept the uniforms till home, DS9 changed to the ugly grey uniforms which was influenced the TNG movies (VOY would have eventually known about uniform changes through the Hirogen com link that was set up). I just want a clean nice streamlined option that looks like it fits my character with a VOY flavor. Does anyone else feel this way?

    Multiple factions?

    Posted: 28 Nov 2020 04:36 PM PST

    Is there a benefit to having characters in multiple factions? I was in the Federation when I played originally, but will probably be starting over as kdf with my girlfriend. Will I be able to transfer anything over to the kdf character?

    Chat/PM issues

    Posted: 28 Nov 2020 06:21 PM PST

    Anyone else experiencing freezes and lag when entering text into chat/pm or the exchange? I've had to quit and restart the game several times as a result today. Doing a hard restart hasn't fixed the problem either.

    If it were to be replaced with a new (current/next gen) Star Trek MMO, would you be okay with STO ending, or would you prefer STO to last as long as it's viable?

    Posted: 28 Nov 2020 08:40 PM PST

    Not trying to cause drama, just wondering how the community feels about it.

    Edit: Yes = Okay with it ending, No = Prefer it to last as long as it's viable.

    Infuser buffs question!

    Posted: 28 Nov 2020 10:19 AM PST

    I just obtained 4× 30% disruptor infuser leading to a total 120% damage, my question is did the damage cap at +100% or it can be increased over it? Is it worthy to use this kind of consoles?

    [long post]Is this style of build still viable? Help a player out of touch with DPS return to the path of destruction

    Posted: 28 Nov 2020 04:07 PM PST

    Before we get into the build style there's some important context that needs to be stated first about my situation with the game:
    I've been mostly touch and go with the game for the past 6ish years or so and while my main, a fed eng that LOVES Ground explosives, has pretty much everything/okish ship builds and I've made sure to collect on all the anniversary/major event items, basic R&D EXP, reputation and occasionally endeavors, I haven't really paid too much attention to the game in that time. Life's changed recently and I can focus more on STO, which had me realize that my favorite "nuke everything in front of you" character and ship build is VERY VERY VERY OUTDATED.

    Today I realized that back in mah day (waves old man cane), I built a really fun KDF Tactical officer (there were no Romulans at this time or they did exist and were very, very new) where for a major sale and bit after it came out I got the full, original Bortasqu ship set and some other KDF ships for their consoles to help with this build that at least very very fun. I haven't touched this character in so long and so rarely that the only warp cores he had were the 0 EC mk x default ones, because when he was initially built Impulse engines and warp cores were the same thing, and the fastest you could go in sector space was by equipping the very rare Borg impulse engines (random loot drop if you were very lucky) and using Slip Stream Drive.

    The actual style build I want to know is still semi-viable:

    My goal back then was pure, undeniable energy drain through energy weapons and other shenanigans to just delete NPCs because they couldn't fire and/or have shields up. This was mostly done via Aceton Assimilators and polaron weapons. Even at just uncommon-rare Mk11-12 DHCs and turrets it did a REALLY good job at killing things in PVE, it wasn't good enough to solo an entire side of KSE/Khitomer Space Elite (yes I am THAT old) like a full 10/10 build could do, but it was up there, I'm guessing around a 6.5-7ish rating for the time. This was best accomplished via Canon Rapid Fire/scatter volley and my purple sprinkles of death coming from the absurdly high number of shots coming from my cannons which would easily knock off shields quickly before shredding whichever target dared to be within my 45 degree attack radius.

    As a result it looked/looks something like this:

    • KDF tactical captain
    • Bortasqu Tactical (or War) Cruiser:

    Weapons mks not given because they're so outdated by today's standards

    • Forward 4 polaron dual heavy cannons (preferably Polarized Disruptor dhcs so you get both good procs, but dear god they're expensive)
    • Aft 4 polaron turrets (again preferably Polarized Disruptor but they're SO expensive)

    Shield/Deflector/Engines

    • Jem'Hadar set because it helped make polaron weapons go pew better

    Consoles

    • Full Bortasqu set especially the subspace snare, because it turned like a beached whale
    • Uncommon mk12 RCS accelerator
    • Aceton assimilator
    • Shield destabilizer
    • all the polaron damage boosting tactical consoles

    Boffs:

    The only ones that really mattered to me for this very specific build were 4 main things

    • directed energy modulation mk 3
    • cannon scatter volley/rapid fire mk1/2
    • all the hull and shield healing science and engineering skills
    • Tractor Beam Repulsors and SOMETIMES gravity well because I did NOT want anything exploding near me, due to the damage it'd deal to me

    Last questions regarding this/in summary

    I know this build is super outdated via ship and mk of consoles/weapons, but I have to ask if this style or something similar to this style of shenanigans is even still viable even as say a Dominion captain? If it's not what IS a good and viable high DPS build that can let me delete enemies universally with similar ease? I know it has to be a tactical captain (at least for space), but that's about it. Please educate me and explain this to me, all I really know is that proc rates have severely been nerfed and it's more of what can have more things boosting it, but that's about it, I don't know if say pure cannon pew pew vomit might circumvent this somehow.

    Ps.

    Completely unrelated question, but Eng captains are still really good for ground combat via summonables and explosives? I love abusing chroniton mines and transphasic bombs + the new explosive drone to just absolutely wreck ground forces/bosses.
